What we have been up to this Summer






Ali only has a 6 week summer so we were trying to squeeze in as much as we can but with the rotten weather, sick babies and the lack of things to do in Reno we are struggling! Here are a few things that we found super fun!! We went swimming for Chandler's B-day, WAY FUN!! We tye-dyed shirts for the Talent Show (it was a hippy theme)! We went the Nevada Historical Society Museum never been there but it was so cool the kids played dress up and played with old fashion toys, even the big kids liked it!! HOORAY!! We also went on a somewhat cloudy rainy day to the Animal Ark to watch the bears eat, sounds silly but it was really neat to see how they do it and why they do certain things!
Doug also redid our backyard this year we made it bigger and the grass is better so we can have the swing set out there!! The kids just love it!!

Funny story


The other night we put Dallen to bed @ a normal time, we then went down stairs to clean watch a show and just hang out for a few hours. We finally came up to bed at 11:00p.m. to find our son playing in his closest happy as can be!!

Four months since last post...............slacker!!





I can't promise that this will be in order or if I will even renumber half of what went on the past 4 months but we'll give it a shot!
Brooke first she is the oldest ya know............
Brooke finished 5th grade this year and is on to the new middle school. We went to a super fun camp for a few days in May right after her birthday (did I meant that she also turned 11 WOW(more pictures of that later)). She was also in the talent show singing and playing the guitar. She is amazing. We did have a little mess up with the amp. but she just rolled with it, I don't know many 11yr that will that composed in front of alot of people.


Ali graduated to fifth grade she is now the oldest in her school, so weird that they are so big!! Ali's class went to the park during the last week of school that was so much fun. I was able to go, I love to see how the kids act with all their friends! She is at such a cute age!


Dallen has finally started going to nursery!! Hooray!! He just loves his teacher! He loves to talk about his birthday in January in the spring! He always says Ali will you be my buddy! He really just loves Ali and wants to play with her all the time!


Colten well he is almost 9months old!! Where does time go?!? He has 4 teeth they really hurt when you get bit with them OUCH!! He really is a joy! HE doesn't crawl yet but does this funny lunge type crawl(?) thing , it is pretty funny to watch!!

Doug and I have been busy with Kids work and church!! Not always fun but always worth it!!
