A few of our family pictures...

We have been trying to get these pictures done since May! Something always came up...someone was sick....a bruised forehead....a cut lip, you get the idea. Anyway, we did them last week, and they're wonderful! This is just a teaser. She took hundreds! And, she truly captured Charlie and Adam.

Charlie, Happy Birthday to you, too!

Charlie's birthday became a celebration for Charlie and Adam. We started the day off with "pillow pets" for both boys. Charlie got a puppy who he named Avatar. Adam named his black kitty Luke Skywalker.
Charlie is now 4 for 4 on rainy birthdays. The weather was chilly, so we went to Grandma and Papa's. I made the boys a dinasaur cake, which turned out pretty cute.


Our party was made up of Violet, Estelle, Luke and Sam, and some of the Wyatt girls, Ellie, Quinci, and Emma.


We chose to give the boys weapons for their gifts. It's a rough world out there. Just look at how mean their Papa is.

A party's not complete without a bounce house, and some air hockey!





Oh! And don't forget the pinata! Poor Spongebob!








Another birthday down. Maybe the next one will be sunny. If not, we'll have another fabulous party at Grandma and Papa's!

Between their birthdays....

Christian and I were in the kitchen one day in June, and here comes Charlie naked as can be. That is, except for his winter boots, mittens, and hat. He marched right in and said, "Do I look like I'm ready to go outside in the cold?" What a funny boy!
Adam was sick before his birthday. Infact, his birthday was the first day, in a few, that he didn't have a fever. The sickness, for Charlie, started after Adam's birthday. He ended up having pnemonia! Weird! Especially in June. After the pnemonia went away, Adam got a stomach bug, then Charlie got it. Then Adam got another cold. So, our house has been the sickhouse most of the month, with one thing, or another.

Happy Birthday, Adam (one month later)!


It's hard to believe that our "baby" is two! We celbrated his birthday at Crystal Springs in a little place called Honeyville, UT. SueAnn and the kids joined us, along with Regalie Grandma and Papa and our cousin Ty. We had a lot of fun!

We're glad that Kylie (above) isn't quite too old to hang out with us. Jocelyn, below with Sue, is a great runner. She was the winner of her class race, by a distance!
Darci and Charlie liked the cupcakes (no surprise). Darci just turned 5 yesterday on July 6th. Happy Birthday, Darc!
The cool thing about Crystal Springs is that their pools and hot tubs are mineral water. This Olympic size swimming pool is 96 degrees. Outside, it was only about 72, but we could have floated around in this mineral pool all day. Infact, we did!
Earlier in the day....we got a flat tire. We spent more time than we would have liked getting this taken care of. Adam still had a great day!
