Nature at it's best!

February 2008 - Aaron's parents came down for a visit this month and for the first time since we have owned the boat we went out on it to watch the sunset. Of course it was beautiful! Being outside in nature is one of my favorite places to be. I am so grateful that we live in such a beautiful and free country where we can enjoy all of Heavenly Father's creations. We are so lucky that we don't have all of the worries that people in other parts of the world have. Watching the news on any given day constantly reminds me of how very blessed we are.

Daddy Daughter Dance

February 2008 - Our neighborhood has lots of fun activities for families and everyone to enjoy. This particular night was a Daddy Daughter Dance. Lexy and Aaron dressed up. We did Lexy's hair like a princess and Aaron presented her with a single rose. She was beaming the entire night. I love all of these pictures and I know that I will cherish these for the rest of my life. Even though it wasn't my special night with her, I know how special she felt to have that time just her and her dad. They had a great time eating, dancing, having hula-hoop contests and watching their dad's do the chicken dance. I think that we will probably make this a yearly tradition.

Holiday Performance

December 2007 - Lexy's ballet class put on a really cute program at Christmas time to Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer. She has a great teacher who is very patient and really teaches the kids a lot.

Hold onto your seats everyone - We have a new post!

So, I obviously have not been very diligent with my posts and now I am even further behind than before. Thanks to a gentle email nudge from a sweet friend I have forced myself to get back on track. At this time I only have a few minutes before we have to leave for a play date at the park, but we'll see what I can do.

November '07 - My friend Daylynne and her little boy Elijah came down to visit. We took a trip to the park so that the boys could play. They had a great time.

Bouncing Fun

November '07 - Today the whole family went to an indoor play gym called Pump It Up. They have lots of huge bounce houses with walls to climb, slides, basketballs, and obstacle courses. The funnest part is that parents are allowed to go too. I don't know if I have ever gotten a better workout than I did here. It is not easy squeezing through all of the small places that this kids squeeze through. Nathan was a little timid at first but once he realized he could do it there was nothing holding him back.

On this particular slide you have to ride on a little sled. At the front there is a place to put your feet. We all piled in and had a blast. I think we all decided this was our favorite slide.

Nathan is hiding something...

What could Nathan be hiding?
It is obviously something in his mouth....
Ahhh! It's bubba teeth. Who is your dentist, anyway?
