Yellowstone Part 1

Well I was so excited to be able to try and start getting caught up on our blog tonight while the kids are in bed and Chas is playing ball, but alas blogger is taking FOREVER to upload pictures so instead of sitting here waiting for pictures to upload I am going to go and do something that will not drive me crazy at 9:30 at night. But here are a few of the beginning of our awesome trip that we took at the beginning of the summer.
This is the afternoon that we left, everyone was soooo excited!

We got to stop in Rexburg and stay at some good friends of ours, the Freemans in Rexburg, we had a great visit and they cooked us an awesome breakfast!
Then we got to our first tourist stop, Yellowstone! The kids LOVED it, I think it was their favorite part of the trip. Beckett couldn't stop talking about all the buffalo and everytime we saw another one he would get just as excited as the first time, he was hilarious. There is something so wonderful about how excited kids get that makes everyone else feel excited too!
We got to see the buffalo swim across this lake, which was awesome! There were some huge splashes and it was great to see them swim across.

Brooklyn or Emree?

Brooklyn or Emree?
Just thought you all might like to see how much Brooklyn and Emree look alike, its kind of scary actually! Especially that Emree wears all the clothes that Brooklyn used to wear, I better make sure I get the right name to the right picture in the scrapbooks...well photo albums anyway. This is Brooklyn when she was 10 months old!

First day of School!

Funny Story 1

Well I haveto share this funny story about Brooklyn. There is a little girl in our primary who got her appendix out shortly after she was baptized and showed Brooklyn her scar, so here is Brooklyn's conversation with me the other day. Brooklyn: "Mom I don't think I want to get baptized." Me: "Why not?" Brook: "It's too scary." And I'm thinking she loves the water, what is the problem? Me: "Whats scary about it?" Brook: "I don't want to go to the hospital and be cut open after I am baptized." I started laughing!!! "You think everyone has to be cut open after they get baptized?" Brook: yes, Jenny did and she even showed me her scar. So I had to explain to her that that was not part of getting baptized, it just happened that it was close to the same time with Jenny. I thought it was so hilarious, you never know what your kids are actually thinking!!

What a handsome boy!
