More Fun!






Here are the rest of the pictures from Berkeley and Tommy's Birthday Party. All the kids loved the hammock! Once they discovered it was there, it was the best thing around! Carys loved it, so Marlie wanted to try. Both of them sat there swinging back and forth until it was time to open presents! Maybe we should get one and then she would go down for a nap outside!

Berkeley's B-Day Party






Berkeley will turn two in a few weeks so we celebrated her and Tommy's birthday party on Saturday. It was so much fun to watch all the kids running around and playing!

Blueberry Yogurt

Learning to Use Utensils



Carys is starting to learn to eat with utensils. Its pretty entertaining! But here is some stuff from her first time with a spoon! She did well at first, not getting anything on herself. Then I walked out of the kitchen for 15 seconds and I come back and she is covered in blueberry yogurt!!!

Rob Wakeboarding

Rob is getting pretty good at wakeboarding! Here is a short video clip of him. The color is kinda off, but you can still see him pretty well.

Lake Trips






We have gone to the lake a few times this summer and everyone of them has been fantastic fun! Carys loves the water, Rob loves to wakeboard, and I like to sit there and do nothing. Maybe one day when I'm not still 20 pounds over weight Ill get on the wakeboard again! Here are just a few lake pictures from the summer! One with Rob on the board and me on the tube, one with Carys in her life jacket, one with Carys walking around the camp ground, and the last one is funny to us. We were driving home from the lake and Rob turned around and saw that Carys had taken a pair of his pants and put them around herself like a shaw! It was funny!

Thanksgiving Point Video

Here is a cute video of Carys at Thanksgiving Point. She gets so excited when she sees water! She flaps her arms up and down like she is going to take off flying at any minute! The color isn't that great since the video was shot on my digital camera, but you can kinda get the gist!

Thanksgiving Point

We had a fun day at Thanksgiving Point a few weeks ago! It was cute to watch all the nieces and nephews run around the gardens and mazes. The best part was Noah's Ark at the entrance. It was a huge ark with animals sticking their heads out the window and spraying water on the kids. Its made to look as real as possible, it was even in about a foot of water. Carys loved it and Riley was such a good helper with her! She loves her cousins!



~Random Cuteness~

Here are some totally random but cute pictures of Carys. We have her in a cute little pink and brown outfit that Grandma Angela gave her, she looked so adorable! There is also one of her drinking from the hose outside while we were working in the yard. It was cute! Then there is a picture of how she fell asleep one day in her crib, LOL! It was classic, and then last but most assuredly not least, is her and her gigantic drink. Rob got a slurpee from the Seven Eleven and gave her a drink. But then she didn't want to give it back...



Playing Dress Up





Having a girl is so much fun! We play dress up all the time now, much to her dismay! She doesn't quite like it yet, but I am confident she will soon!

Splash Pad




I know its been a long time since my last post, but these past few months have been busy! So lets get started!
They built a splash pad across the street from my house at the Magna Pool. I took Carys there hoping she would like it and she did! She didn't know what to think at first, but after about 30 seconds of watching the water, which she loves, she started having a blast!
