August 17 - 31, 2012

Yay for summer.  We spent many days at the park and loved every minute of it.  I have found that I have park requirements.  1.  They have to have 2 baby swings. 2.  They have to be away from busy roads so when one kids is running away I can catch them without worrying if they are going to get run over.  We always end our park days with a Diet Coke for me and 2 kids cones from McDonalds.  

Emma at the park

Tyler jumping into the kid pit.  This kid can jump!

Up the slide - yep climbing the slide is way more fun then going down the slide.

Then we joined Little Gym to get some of our wiggles out.  Our class in on Friday from 11-12.  We are having fun learning how to climb, jump, and tumble.  Hopefully this will help not climb and jump at home.

Emma coming off the balance beam. It is amazing how fast they master skills at this age.  Yes Mazy the bear was with us and wouldn't be let down.

Tyler on a different piece of equipment.

Next my Dad came to town to help with the twins for a bit.  It was so nice to have extra hands.  We did the pool everyday and lots of field trips!  THANKS FOR COMING DAD.

Checking out the fish at Cabelas!

Oliver has to find anything comfy to lay on these days.

Emma looking so grown-up.  Wanted to wear big girl undies today.  

Our Ketchup Girl.  If this girl could live off condiments she totally would.  Ranch and Ketchup are her favorite.

We love when friends visit from CA.  Emma and Nicholas hanging out the window with popsicles.

July

We spent a lot of July eating ice cream and re-organizing the kitchen.  Not very exciting but it was fun!

Emma was totally into ice cream.

Tyler liked to play with it but not so into the eating of it.

Helping re-organize the pantry!

When cousins come to town..

Beth and her family took a big trip starting in CA, then onto WA, then to Yellowstone, and on the drive back to CA they stopped for dinner in bountiful so we went up and got to play.  Thanks for stopping even though it was short!

Tyler loved my Aunt's fish pond.  I am not so sure the fish loved Tyler. 

Everyone jump!  Good energy release.

Today was the day that we had everyone over to celebrate our two little friends.  The theme was I eat the colors of the rainbow.

At a Birthday Party

The twins went to their 1st real birthday party on 2012-06-14.  Lonna Hall turned 2 and her family threw a Sesame Street themed party.  It was so fun and so cute!
