August Happenings

 The boys participated in the summer reading program through the city library system. They are such avid readers - particularly Cpc, who just can't get enough! He tells people he wants to be a librarian when he grows up.

 Arc loves her blanket and dog. And I just can't get enough of this dress Pmc bought her in Africa. She is also a very cute sleeper!

 Arc loves food.

 Ward visit to the Church History museum.

 We loves our summer hikes with Aunt Ace and Arc's new friend AJ, whom Ace nanies.

 I can NEVER get enough of my happy place - Bloomington Lake.

 Arc's is on the left, Cdc's is in the middle (cut his out ALL BY HIMSELF). Love how Cpc is progressing in his coloring!

 Cdc can now write his name!

 Every time the polar bear came close Arc looked away and didn't even notice.

 Also my happy place!

 Aunt Ace turns 21!

 She's definitely walking now.

 Arc has an astounding number of facial expressions.

 Buddies.

We've been reading Beverly Cleary books all summer, and Cpc was so enthralled with the Henry Huggins books that he made up his mind to learn to ride on two wheels. Then he decided that he wanted to ride his bike to school since he can't have a paper-route. So here's Cpc on his very first day of Public School Kindergarten at Uintah Elementary!

 More summer fun with buddies!

 Again, the expressions!

 These boys are tough firefighters!

 But not so tough all the time!

 Utes/Aggies game

 Big girl!

She LOVES her ice cream!

If Paul can brainwash my boys into Ute fans...then it is perfectly legit for me to teach my daughter the joy of being an Aggie!

bouchdial Love that dress! Steve thinks we'll get our daughter a ute cheer outfit. I'm thinking that yours is a better option!
tenillecundick @bouchdial yeah - the smallest they make dresses in is 2T, but I think it looks great so we will be using it a while. Um - I need to go through our girls' clothes soon, we definitely have more than we need if you want some!
tenillecundick @bouchdial And who wants their little girl enillecundick Oops - dressed like a cheerleader?
annwhatch That is such a beautiful girl!!! She looks so darling in that dress and bow!

Just showing the kiddos my happy place.
