BBQ smores and shoes
Yet another playhouse sleepover for the girls and their fun dad. This time it started out with some yummy bbq smores. Trey is not happy in this picture. He got the gate shut on him by one of his responsible sisters I'm sure. I just wanted a picture of him in the cute shoes we found him.

The BEST dad ever!
Anna's Graduation from kindergarten
Yes, I have a child old enough to be graduated from kindergarten! I can't believe it myself. Some days I feel that old.... most days I don't. She is a wonderful kid, that Anna. I don't know what life would be like without her. She is so much smarter then I ever was, loves to do crafts, draw, paint, color, read, help out, and play with her sister. We are so blessed to have gotten Anna first to be a wonderful example to the rest. A big shout out to our Anna and all that she learned in her first year of school. (Just a side note... everyone keeps asking me how I like the school she is at, High Point Academy. I LOVE it! Sure they are still in portables right now, but the curriculum is awesome and the teachers are too! The days and school year are too long, but it's a really good school so far.) WE LOVE YOU ANNA!!

Family Reunion in Moab
The Williams side of the family had a most excellent family reunion this year. We went to moab
and played our hearts out. Mom and dad provided two condos to stay in
and they were amazing. They were so comfortable and nice. Just like a
home away from home! We rode bikes, ate, hiked around to the big
natural arches, went river rafting, ate, laughed, went swimming,
laughed and had the most amazing devotionals every night. I have the
greatest family and feel so blessed that we all still get along so
well, and we always have. It really is amazing and uncommon. Here are
just a few highlights from Moab. I love you all!! Thanks for the good times, memories and outstanding examples.

sprinklers and smiles
The girls love to play in the sprinklers on very warm days (notice I didn't say HOT...it doesn't get hot here, just very warm). We LOVE our big back yard and our grass. We will definatley miss being able to have grass everywhere. Hopefully we live somewhere in AZ that allows grass and not just hot, ugly rocks. Blahhhggg.
Cherry Creek bike ride
Trevor and I took all the kids on a fun bike ride the other day. Only, it didn't end up being so fun. Trey was sooooo tired and did NOT like the bike trailer. Trey, Natali and I had to cut our ride short and play at the beach instead of finishing the ride around the lake. Trevor and Anna made it back to the car and picked us up. Trey had a much better time in the sand and walking around.

Colorado Mountain biking is the BESSSTTTTT!
Trevor went out with some friends mnt biking the other day and he got some pictures. I know he will never post these on here himself, but I know he wants to show them off, so.... :) I think they were at Golden Gate park somewhere. So beautiful! I really am glad that you have this hobby babe. It is way better then some other manly hobbies that I can think of (watching sports all day, playing video games....) I have an amazing husband!
Temple trip
,
Our camera ran out of batteries after our first picture at the primary temple tour so this is the only picture we got. The girls had fun touring the outside of the Denver temple and I actually learned a lot too. Like, President Hinkley had two pine trees planted on the temple grounds because he had received them as a gift and couldn't take them with him so he planted them here. And... a bunch of primary children saved their pennies and did various other activities to earn $10,000 to build the little bench courtyard in the back of the temple. I thought those were pretty cool things to learn about the temple. It was a beautiful day and we are so lucky to have such a great husband/dad to dress up and come to the temple with his family instead of enjoying the beautiful day in other ways (mountain biking:). We love you!

Anna's field day
Anna had field day at school the other day and I was lucky enough to help out. (Big thanks to Emily for letting Nat and Trey hang out with you all morning :) They had this whole field full of fun activities. Their P.E. teacher is really organized and fun. Anna was a little shy at first because she was first in line for the first station, the obstacle course. She was so cute.... she just walked really slow through the whole thing. After a couple of courses she warmed up and had a blast. Sometimes it is fun to have your kids in school and see what fun things they are learning to do. Most of the time though I miss her terribly and can't believe she will be in 1st grade in a couple of months. Too grown up!!
