Squash anyone?

My awesome sister knitted me a pair of socks for my birthday.

Happy Birthday Sarah

Our little baby girl turned 2 in Septmeber! She loves birthday candles and blew hers out so fast that we had to re-light them so I could get a picture. She burst into tears when we sang to her.

Penn State and 1st day of school

We went to Pennsylvania over Labor Day to see my sister and her husband. We had a great time. We were able to go to awesome farmers markets and make yummy freezer jam.

We visited Penn state and the theater department. The girls loved the dressing room and all the lights.

We had a birthday party for Sarah in while we were there and this is what happened when we sang to her~~~

The girls took Swimming lessons this summer and had a blast.

First day of school.

Locks of Love

Anna has wanted to donate her hair to Locks of Love and she finally reached 10 inches so off it went!




I am so proud of Anna for having the desire to help other kids.

Summer fun

Family Picture...

Family pictures are pure comedy:
Kids have to have help to sit down,

Someone is always crying,

Dad is trying to keep everyone in line,

Someone is not looking at the camera,

AND... (drum roll please)


Mom is trying to smile through it all!

Ashlee

Our awesome niece flew out the end of June to watch the girls so I could attend girls camp. The girls had a great time with her. We visited the Joseph Smith Birthplace Memorial in Sharon, VT.



This is the only picture that sarah is smiling in.




We took her to see Nubble Lighthouse in Maine.




There happened to be a wedding in progress when we showed up.


We really appreciate you leaving your friends and family to camp out with us for two weeks.

Thanks again Ash!
