Our new family member!

Well, we have started work on creating the berm around the yard. We spent all day outside and we have so much more to do. I don't think we want to do this anymore, but we are already committed! ha ha.

Just a picture of our crazy kids!

We welcomed a new member into our family about a month ago. Wayne got a little kitten named Ross. He got him from a family in our ward. I must say he is really cute, but I won't say that when he gets older. I really don't like cats, but he will be nice to have around to catch the mice. Mack and Ross really like each other, and everyday the snuggle up to sleep.




Happy Birthday Rylee

On Tuesday, our little Rylee turned 1 years old. I can't believe how time flies! It seems just yesterday we brought her home from the hospital. Everyday, she is looking more and more like Wayne and I. Which is really scary.

Rylee knew just what to do with her presents.




We all loved the cake.

WOW!

MMM. This is good.

This is really good.

RAARR! YUMMY!

All done.

A week of new beginnings!

The past couple weeks has been very hectic for our little family. Thursday, Shea started preschool for the first time! She was so excited and not nervous at all. A lady in our ward decided to start a preschool this year, and we quickly signed Shea up. She loves Mrs. Tara so much. She is my visiting teacher, she was Shea's primary teacher, and it's her friends mom! Ha Ha. Poor Tara can't get a break from us! She is a great lady, and we are so excited to have Shea in her class!


I'm not usually a picture freak, but I sure was this morning!

Shea and Rylee at work.

This weekend was also my little brother Chad's farewell. He is going to Mexico for his mission, so we were in Utah for the weekend. We discovered that Rylee loves to stick her tongue out. Which is really strange because I used to do the same thing when I was her age.

The family also went to Chuck E Cheese for lunch on Monday. (Excluding Chad and Ryan)


Some other excited news! Wayne and I were sealed on Friday the 20th of August. We are so happy that we were able to have the great blessings of the temple, and that we are now a FAMILY FOR EVER!! Shea did an excellent job in the temple. She was polite and reverent. Rylee on the other hand, not so much! ha ha.

After, we all went to Applebee's in Rexburg for lunch. Thank you to everyone who came to Idaho for us. We are really happy that you were able to share this special time with us.

Visitors

All of us in the front yard eating smores.
Typical Shea! She is such a goof ball, and is always on the run. She helps just as much as she gets in trouble. Here exciting news this month is that she is starting preschool in a couple weeks. We are both really excited for this next adventure. I'm just glad that we found a great preschool teacher that works from here home and not a daycare! Yeah for Mrs. Tara. (Who is also here Primary teacher, and my visiting teacher. Poor Lady! ha ha.)

Little Ms. Rylee is all smiles. We couldn't have asked for a better baby girl. That may be because she hasn't started walking yet. Thank goodness! She is growing fast and will turn 1 in September. Here are the many smiles of Rylee.




Unlce Chad and Aunt Brooke came up to visit for the weekend. We were very excited to see Uncle Chad because he will be leaving on his mission to Mexico in less than a month. We love Chady very much and he is going to be a great missionary.

Shea afer a smore.
WaynO!

Smile Brooke! ha ha.

Bear Lake

My Aunt Cindy and Uncle Lynn and all of their kids rented a condo for a weekend in Bear Lake. My mom and dad decided to go and that last minute we decided to as well. We felt bad just showing up at the condo, but Cindy made us feel right at home. The kids had a blast at the beach. Just always remember to make sure the sunscreen you are using is waterproof. Poor Rylee got burned, but she loved the water. Shea lived in the water as well!


My third child Wayne.

Taylor and Shea took turns pulling each other on the water weenie.


We finally got Shea out of the water to eat lunch.

Rylee loved the sand.

Shea's turn.

It looks like Shea got a hold of the camera!

Poor burnt Rylee Poo.
