Mini Church Reunion

We are so lucky! For the next week, we get to have family in town! We are enjoying being together. We get to be with cousins we haven't seen for a long time, and others we have never met yet! We spent lots of time playing together and even spent some time at the pageant country fair. Good times!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

These are some of the greatest humans in existence. I walked in to read to the boys before bed and found them reading their scriptures. I love how they are self disciplined and try to be the best that they can be. They are going to create some joyful lives for themselves and their future families. 

Swimming Lessons!

Before summer is over, we decided we better get some swimming lessons in. It has been a great part of the summer. The kids are doing great!

Good Habits

Good habits are important! The potty training has been going well, but sometimes important steps get forgotten about. Here are the little reminders posted where all potty goers can see now. 

Baby Mine

Baby mine. These moments are ones that I don't want to forget. Look at this sweet boy. I love him so very much. I have been blessed with the sweetest little babies in my life. I love being their mother.

 

Homemade Butter

Landon taught an object lesson for Family Home Evening about how to build a testimony. He did a great job and we ended up with homemade butter. Yummy!

Sunny Days

Zoie has been enjoying the sun beating down on her. We took some crafting fun outside on the picnic table. Then, sometimes after a good swim, she lays out with her towel underneath the picnic table. She knows how to use her imagination and have fun!

Eye Doctor

Sadie lady and I spent the morning together at the eye doctor. We are getting everything checked off our to do list so we can start up the school year again. Looks like she has healthy eyes!

Stormy Weather

We had some pretty severe weather and strong winds happening. Ken was away storm watching with the fire department. The weather sirens went off and so the kids and I headed to the basement. At the time, we were also dog sitting Roo, and so all of the kids and me, along with all of the animals, ended up hanging out in the dark basement; the power went out as well. We were all safe, but our trampoline ended up against the house, so now it's a little warped, but still good four bouncing on. 

Keepin' It Cool

I was too nervous to have the big pool up this summer, but the little one was able to help the kids cool off anyway. It was perfect for me to be able to sit on the deck with Grayson and be able to keep an eye on all of the kids at the same time. I'm so glad they were able to have fun with each other.

My Little Heart Stopper

This little boy sure does make me want to stop and stare at his cute face all day. I love him SO much!

Paul/ Saul

Just look at how well Zoie can color! She had a lesson in her primary class about when Saul turned good and became known as Paul. 

The Best Way to Bond

I have the best memories of reading stories with my mom. I would love for Sadie to keep great memories of her big brothers reading to her. Landon is one of the best readers out there too.

3 Months Old!
