Logan's Special Day



Dave gave Logan a blessing on August 7th. We were so excited to have family join us, and to be a part of Logan's special day. Dave's parents were here, my parents were here, my sister Nikki and her family, and Dave's brother Mike and his family. Logan is and was a great baby during the blessing. Afterwards he gave Sierra a hard time. She was holding him after he was blessed and he released everything. Luckily Dave told her to put the blanket in between them for protection because it got everywhere. He ruined his nice white outfit. As soon as we got home we had to wash it so we could take pictures. Here are the great pictures. He was so smiley. Love it!

Yearly Triathlon




Dave did his yearly triathlon on the 24th of July and it was hot hot hot! I don't know why it was decided to do this triathlon. He did it last year and it was miserably hot then and it was the same this year. I put in my vote that we don't do that one again. I just love to go and watch but taking 4 kids when it is 100 degrees is very difficult. With that said, I tried to put the heat behind me and enjoy watching Dave.


Dave's brother Mike did the triathlon again with him. So, it was fun having Alison and the kids with us. I think the kids enjoyed it and they loved watching their dad race.


Great job Dave! We love watching you.

Oh Drew!



Drew is the comedian in our house. He is always doing the funniest things and he is the loudest child. He screams loud, he cries loud, and he laughs loud. We are potty training the twins right now and every time someone, including me, goes in the toilet, Drew screams at the top of his lungs, YEAHHHHHH! GOOD JOB! He is so proud of that person. It makes me always want to go to the bathroom in front of him. I feel like I am doing something so special and so amazing. I just wish he would cheer that loud when I do the dishes.

One other thing about Drew, I believe, he has bad allergies and he wakes up with swollen eyes and a itching nose. These two pictures are Drew with allergies.

Gotta love the hair!

New Tire Swing

So our neighbors believed that the two swings we had hanging from our trees, were on their land and they cut them down. That was a sad day at our house because the kids loved them, but lets be honest, they were horribly built swings. After letting our neighbors know it was our land, Dave put up a new swing and the kids are loving it.

No Mom, Not the Shark!





Can you see the tears in Taylor's eyes? He did not want us to clean the shark off. I remember feeling the same way when I was a kid. So, to ease his pain we took pictures of the shark. The kids got to have face painting done at Dave's work party. Taylor wasn't sure about some lady painting his face so she did it on his arm instead.


I wish we had a picture of Drew's face painting. Drew had his whole face painted like a tiger, it was so cute. He had such a good time running up to everyone, roaring and runing away laughing. Lana also had a rose painted on her arm.
