August 2015

The beginning of August we went to Jordanelle for the Hansen/Alexander campout!  I wish I had taken pictures of that trip, we had such a great time!  Lots of boating, visiting, and all the fun gifts from Grandma Jo! On the last day we stayed a little later than everyone else for one last boating trip.  Darin and Rachelle came with their family.  We got rained out near the end, but otherwise had a great time!

 Here's some fun shots from this month. 

 Miniature golfing with Connor and Andie!!  Lots of fun.

 Farm Country with Melissa and her friend Rachelle and all the kids!




 I totally love their faces!


 Just doin playdough on the front porch
 Sleeping beauty.  I don't know WHAT she's doing here with the rice bag and half sitting up.

 Monster pancakes
 In the middle of August Shaun and I went to Las Vegas alone!!! It's the first trip we've taken without the kids since Lila was about 10 months old.  We had SUCH A GREAT TIME!!! We walked around the strip, we to a great show called La Reve,  had chicken and waffles at Hash House a Go Go, stayed in the Trump Towers..... it was some much needed time for us to be alone.  I wish we could go back!!!





 Lila REALLY wanted to go to the aquarium before school started and we barely made it in time!!


 Don't they look like a cute married couple with their baby!?


 More Thanksgiving Point!!

 AAnd dinosaur museum again




 Summer came to an end the end of August.  Here's Isaak on his first day of 2nd grade!!  His teacher is Mrs. Egbert and so far he likes her great!  His Spanish teacher is coming from Spain and will be her soon!

Isaak and Massimo Poggio!




July 2015

Summer was so, so busy.... but so, so fun!!! Here's some shots from the 4th of July.  After we went to Brett's house for some REALLY BIG FIREWORKS!


Here's a little trip we took to the Museum of Natural Curiosity with all of my family.  Isaak chose to stay home so he could enjoy his last day of school.  We missed him!
 

A little "welcome to your summer vacation" surprise!

I love, love this paper!
We got a boat with Melissa and Levi!!! So much fun and we spent so many hours going this summer.  So much fun!







This was such a fun date night.  We went to the Escape Key downtown.  They lock you in a room and you have one hour to solve the clues and break out of the room.  We did it with just 8 minutes left on the clock.  Then we went to Bennie Hana for dinner. 
Here's a dragon fly Shaun saved from our kiddie pool



Isaak and Clark hanging out under our Japanese Maple
Just reading books together. 



More boating!  Just our family this time. 


Dinosaur museum!  That's one big balloon lighthouse!

Awww, the kids brought out their Mickey Mouse ears.  I want to go back to Disneyland!

The gardens at Thanksgiving Point.  We sure are making great use out of this membership!!!












Playing with the settings on my camera.  Always fun!!



Our cute friend, Andie Cantwell was climbing on a rock wall when the rocks fell and crushed/ peeled the skin off 2 of her fingers.  They almost had to amputate them.  Here's the get well gift we put together for her.

We started piano lessons!  Isaak and Lila are both doing fantastic!

Just chillin in the circle
We love Grandma Lavon!!
More boating!  Poor Andie's hand!

Camping in American Fork Canyon with the Woodofords!  The girl with Lila is Kate and Jane's cousin.  We had such a great time!!  I absolutely love when all the cousins are such great friends!!







This is probably one of my favorite pictures of all time.



The same day we got home from camping we had a huge Woodford party at my parents house.  Everyone was in town because Alisa was supposed to get married that week, but had to delay it a couple months.
