Witches

I caught Lauren sneaking extra candy while the boys weren't looking!!
My two little angels were witches for Halloween!

Apple Hill (I mean Bishop's Pumkin Farm)

We were able to go to Apple Hill this year. We love going to see the Piggie Race, eating great food and awesome pie, picking out our pumpkins at the pumpkin patch and doing all the fun stuff there is to do there.

Where's Lauren??

Lauren wanted to play hide and go seek with me. So when I came in the kitchen and saw this, I thought that it was so funny!

My little Get-Away!

Chad had to go to Las Vegas for a meeting for his work so I went with him. We stayed at the Wynn which is a REALLY nice hotel!! But all I did was stay in my room and read "Twilight"!! Yes I got stucked into it and I love it!! I love the whole series. It's a must read!

Lauren's the BIG Two!!

Well, here is my big girl!! Lauren is two years old now and loves to do things by herself. She loves Aubrey and tries to do the same things she does.

Life is crazy!!

I am so bad at staying on top of our blog!! With this pregnancy, I haven't wanted to do anything. So anyway, I have the energy so I'm going to post a bunch of events that happened this summer. They are brief but at least I will be caught up!!

Six Flags

We had the chance to go to Six Flags one Saturday. It happend to be Lauren's birthday so we were telling people who worked there to see if we would get anything free!! Anyway, Aubrey told the lady who worked the dolphin show and she said that Lauren was too young but if Aubrey wanted to help feed the dolphins. Aubrey was so excited!! She had a great time. Oh yeah, happy birthday Lauren!!

Aubrey's First Day Of School!

The night before, I was ready to pick out Aubrey's clothes. She said that she wanted to pick them so I told her she could and to put them on her bed. So the next morning she runs into my room saying "Ta-da!!" She put on her old jeans with butterflies and her old High School Musical shirt. I said "No way! You have plenty of new clothes, pick one of those." So she picked this outfit which was fine but I told her that I got to pick the follow days clothes. Was that mean of me??

Aubrey's first hot lunch

I know that I'm goofy, but I hate missing Aubrey's "firsts". So I decided to go in and take some pictures of my big girl!! She did a great job picking out her lunch.

How big is Lauren??

I wasn't feeling very good so I was laying down on the couch. Lauren seemed to be really quiet so I finally got up to find her pouring her own milk for her cereal. Before I got upset, I had a take a picture first.

Camping...

We had a great time going camping through out the summer. The first two pictures are from Gray Eagle and the second two are from Stampede.

Our new little cousin!!

Lauren loves her new baby cousin, Colton. She loves to hold him and just look at him. I think that is so cute!! By the way, Lauren loves wearing bandaids!!!

Surprise!!

A couple of weeks ago we found out that we are pregnant!! My symptoms came on really fast this time. Aubrey told me the other day that we are having a boy. I asked her why she says that and she said that Heavenly Father knows what we need. i told her that it could easliy be a girl but her mind was made up. I thought that was really cute!!

Jump Man Jump

Chad has been gone for a while so us girls have been doing little things to stay busy and have fun. I wasn't feeling too good one morning and Aubrey asked if we could go to Jump Man Jump. I thought that would be a great idea so they could go have some fun and I could just take it easy. Aubrey has been there before but it was Lauren's first time and she loved it!! I think that her favorite thing was the pool of balls! After a while she decided to go play with Aubrey. Aubrey is such a great sister, she makes sure that Lauren is having a good time.

Happy Family Reunion!!

It is so fun to get the family together. Don and his family weren't able to come so we missed them. It was so fun to see the grandkids play together. We started are reunion at Idlewild park so some of us could go tubin'. The rest of us stayed at the park and played around. It was a lot of fun!

Tubin'

We decided to go float the Truckee River. It was a cooler day so the water was cold. Besides the one "flip over" they had a great time!!

Mom, please stop taking my picture!!!

Can you see my eyes???

Fourth of July Night

We went to a baseball field to watch the fireworks. It was a good place to let the kids run around.

Saturday Activities

On Saturday, we went to Mom and Dad's house for breakfast and play games at their park. We had a great time playing different games and just being together. Later that day, we all met up at our house for dutch oven dinner and dessert which were awesome!!! Before it got too late we started playing with the water balloons. I think with every water balloon game it starts out right but then it ends up everyone just throwing the balloons at each other. We had a great time!!

Aubrey's Swimming Lessons

Aubrey did great with her swimming lessons this year. She passed all of the qualificaitons for her level two class. Her instructor said that she might be ready for level three but because of her age and her being so little, she might want to do level two one more time. Anyway, we are so proud of her, she's doing a great job!!

Aubrey loves the diving board!! She can do front and back flips, and beautiful dives. She class wanted her to do a back flip but she wasn't feeling like it. If she had it her way, she would swim everyday!! I love seeing her developing her talents. She's awesome!
