Family Night up the Canyon

If only dogs could talk.... "please help me get my fat butt up".

Belle is finally a water dog and LOVED fetching in the river. So fun to watch her swim in the deep parts!

This was the face after belle shook off right in front of her. Love it! (see below)

Hello Pippy Longstocking!

Backyard campout!

Dancing Class

Holy crap! Highlight of my week... of course I just get her all dressed up and then drop her off cause if I stay...she doesn't focus. But isn't she cute?! Shopping for dance clothes, tap shoes and ballet shoes were so much fun!

Btw...of the girls in her 3 year old's class, she is taller than two of them.... and she's still 2!

First day of 1st Grade

Yes I know it was a month ago....but here it is....and it's darling!

Home Sweet Home

This is our home we waited so long for! I'm so glad to be in but an important piece to feeling totally "home" will not be here for another month. See you in a month my honey!

Also, if you notice to the right, I've finally added a picture of my son Bridger. It's been a long time coming and I wish it was here much sooner. In the past 6 1/2 years without him, I have shared his poem with many others who have grieved the loss of a child and hope it brought them comfort as it did to us. So his link is a tribute to his life...and for that blessed day we will be together again.

Visit from Dad

Boy do we love going up in the mountains!


Brigham has never had so much fun playing soccer than he did with his Dad that day.

Love us a cold dark movie theater on a hot summer day! Despicable Me is a favorite of ours!

Brigham's Birthday!

They loved the blaster!
Yoda's ears were a bit of a struggle!
My poor lactose boy picking off his cheese.
The buddies

Teeth!

Of course Brinley needed to have a picture of her teeth too....you can tell by all the chips that girl has that she is clumsy!

4 teeth gone in less than 2 weeks! And the last front tooth came out the hard way... he came is screaming ... angry screaming cause he was so mad at himself and there was so much blood but when he calmed down enough to understand his words he told us "I just wish I never closed my eyes!! I'm so mad at myself! I just wish I could go back and open my eyes!"
He was riding his bike with his eyes closed and crashed and jammed his mouth in the handlebar. Oh and he was screaming that he couldn't find his tooth! And when he first looked in the mirror he screamed more saying" I just don't want to look like this for my party!" He had a big fat lip. Great Memory! Great story!

Lil Twin Cousins

These two are just cuter than cute!!

My little Jack-o-lantern
