Catch up May-August....almost....

Here we are....another four months have gone by....this post may be boring, but it is a catch up and overload of a few things we have been up to!
 
 Brec's first day of half day Kindergarten!
 

 Ava-2nd grade
 
The order of my pics goes from newest to oldest.....
 
Utah vacation-meeting up with friends!
 
Friends from high school that live in the Salt Lake/Lehi area.  We were able to get away for a night without kids....much needed.
 
More friends from high school!  I met up with these girls in St. George while traveling home.
 
 These girls are friends that I grew up with in Elementary school.  I had not seen them for over 10 years!
 
Cousins!!!
 

 
Dinosaur museum.....always have to go while in Utah!
 
 I told the kids to pretend to be scared and that you are going to be eaten....they are good little actors!  This is my favorite....
 
 More fun with cousins.....
 

 Farm Country at Thanksgiving point....another must.....
 
 
Bridal Veil Falls



 
 
We had to check out City Creek and of course visit the temple grounds.....
 

 
 
Time to party!
 
Yes, I turned the big 3-0 this year :(  My sister-in-law and I celebrated the day after our birthdays together (yes, we share the same birthday and she turned the big 4-0!)
 
 On my B-day I told my hubby he had to plan everything and that I wanted all my family there....so after dinner we hit Provo Beach Resort and went bowling.  It was probably the funnest time I have been bowling!  We tried to take pics of us cheering each other on in the background of every pic.....so funny.
 

 Dinner at La Jolla Groves
 
 My mom, me, and my sis.

 I had to enlarge this pic because of one of my faves----the Creamy.  Miss them.  They are delicious.
 
4th of July in Payson, Arizona

 Briant's old shirt....worn by Brec and now Cole.....
 


 
Exploring the natural history museum here in Mesa, AZ!

 
AZ Freedom Festival
 Last year we went to this and I brought fruit snacks...learned my lesson because they had all melted!  It is HOT!!!



 Cole was spraying random people with this spray bottle.  People would turn around really quickly and then find out it is from him.....haha.
 
Swim Team


 Ava tried swim team this year!  She did really good for being a newby and hope she wants to do it again next year!  Maybe diving?
 
Father's Day

 We love him and his cheesiness! 
 
 
Brec's 5 year old birthday party!
 







 I can't believe my cuddle love bug is 5 years old!  He is the sweetest most emotional kid.  By emotional he gets angry as well and all that sweetness goes away...but then comes back a few seconds later when you offer a hug.  I love everything about him and wouldn't change anything...
 
 And then there is this little terd......Mud on the head?  Seriously?  I had to throw those shorts away because I couldn't get the mud stain out.....I hate mud.
 
Father and Son's campout
 

 Briant decided to take Cole this year! 
 
Ava's dance recital

 

 
Brec's end of year preschool program
 Hilarious outfit they dressed him in!  Haha!
 
 
 These cute boys love playing together.  It is pretty darn cute.  Cole tries to do everything that Brec does.
