K & Mom

With Allie at preschool last week it gave me some awesome time with Katelyn. We had a good time and we need that! This little one is usually crying or screaming so giving her all my attention has been a plus. I'm glad we can have this time together...although we miss Allie A LOT!

Preschool!!

Is this really happening? She is so ready...

To excited to normal smile...it's an all out smile today!

I'm excited to have some time with just Katelyn...although she is having mixed emotions about it right now.

We had a short meeting for the moms right when we dropped the kids off. Allie sitting next to me, leans over and whispers, "Mom, aren't you supposed to leave!?" That made me sad!

That's a good silly face!

 Her running to me yelling, "Mommy!" made my heart melt! There is Mrs. Heather her teacher.

Camping

Once upon a time we loved to camp and be outside all the time. We have a tiny little tent that fits us so nice and snuggly. Then we had children and never camped again! The end.

Until...the ward campouts came along. Last year we borrowed a HUGE tent from someone in the ward and we all stayed and the kids slept great but we didn't. This year we still have just our little tiny tent so I suggested that Doug and Allie have a camping date and Katelyn and I would go up for the night and go back home to sleep (hehehahaha). We had a great time...exploring, chatting, listening to great music, smores, stories, games...then Katelyn and I took off and Doug and Allie stayed.

It was COLD that night...very cold. Allie was so excited she would just pop up out of bed and look around every now and then. They didn't sleep but it's all about the experience right!?

Allie just poses like this at the site of a camera. Funny girl!!

It's 11:17 P.M. on Friday, so I made it...barely!

August So Far...

August has been crazy. 

Ready for a whole lot of pictures!?

 First, Doug's Grandma Green came for a visit! It was so fun to see her and she looks as good as ever. The girls of course loved her right away!!

Doug had a birthday...31 to be exact.

 I took the girls to Park City to see my family and my grandma from Florida. My Grandma is so active and looks amazing. It was so great to see her. I was able to go to the temple with Lisa, we went to parks, the Alpine Slide, played games, and just enjoyed the company!

Katelyn ran back and forth on this bridge for a good 40 minutes (don't you think guys!?). It was too funny. The other girls loved it too!

I went to Girl's Camp with the young women from my ward.

We celebrated our 8th anniversary! We stayed in Boise while Doug's parents had a sleepover with the girls. They had fun, we had fun. Win, win!

 

And August isn't even over yet....
