Summer Swim Pictures

We finally unloaded some pictures from the camera. Here it is November and we are looking at summer pictures. Lexi with her balancing act.

Lauren looks like she had a bit of sun.

Eli loves the water.

We call this the polygamous hairdo. Natalie and Sofie.

This cutie is always smiling. What a happy boy.

Evie had to have her swim glasses on all the time. If you look close you will see there is water in the glasses.

Doug's job....hold cute girls. He likes that.

You got to love girls. Natalie, Lauren and Lexi.

Halloween Party

We had family over and celebrated Halloween. Mostly it was food and carving pumpkins. Dinner in a Pumpkin....

This is supposed to be Mummy Meatloaf.....I think it looks like ......I don't know....I couldn't eat it.

Witches Fingers

Scary smiles.

Even after all that food Ryan wanted yogart.

Noah getting to be a big boy sitting all by himself.

Playing in the leaves. Sparky Jones was having fun along with everyone else.

Buzz Lightyear. He was zapping everyone and of course they were falling like flies.

Rex the great friend of Buzz Lightyear. I don't know why we didn't get a picture of Natalie in her mermaid costume. She was adorable of course. We missed everyone that couldn't be there.

A Bit Of Summer Swimming

Claire finding the pool treats.

Not pool fun but close enough. Evie and Ryan were cute friends.

Sweet baby Noah and his first time in the pool.

We got a bit of Braxtyn for the summer. Seth in June and we had nice weather. I think it was the only nice weekend of June. We loved getting Seth and Braxtyn here.

Braxtyn loved getting thrown as high as Seth could throw her.

Hanging out at the pool...Steve and the girls.

Sofie learned how to dive off the board. She did a great job. Such a good swimmer.

The girls love this floatie. It can be a rock for mermaids, a boat that gets tipped over and many other things.

Evie is working on getting her floaties off. She wouldn't have been taking them off to go to the bathroom because she would just run over to the grass, slip down the swimsuit and take the opportunity to pee right there.

Lexi Lou.

Lauren Mae.

Hiking Waterfall Canyon

At the beginning of the summer we got Seth home for just a weekend and Braxtyn came too. It was a nice time and off to Waterfall Canyon we went. Brax was a great hiker.

Here she is standing at the base of the waterfall.

Our hiking bunch. Paul and Blitz came along.

You can see Ogden in the back ground.

Taking a break along the creek.

FENCE BUILDING

Finally I have got around to getting the "fence building post" completed. What a slacker. This photo and a couple of others show no work being accomplished. We had to get some family pics before coming home. Thanks to all the boys; David, Adam, Joel and Paul. Grandpa loves his fence. Especially thank you to Caitlan and Krysta. You two didn't have to come over and watch your husbands work but you did. Here are Joel, Caitlan and baby Noah.

The family picture of Grandpa and Paul.

It was also a bit of fun and games. Natalie, Eli and I.

Adam and his family with Grandpa Braniff. Fence in the back ground.

Grandpa Braniff and Noah.

Natalie taking a pose at the back of the yard. Fence looking good and so is Natalie.

Tommy was the official cutter. He did all the cutting. I always thought Tommy was the "perfectionist" but he informed me Adam had one up on him.

Kim and I were the "yard improvement committee". We worked so hard and Kim was amazing. I hadn't spoken to Tommy or Kim about helping and they just assumed so much responsibility. Thank you.

Adam and Joel. Adam the engineer and perfectionist. I would want him on my fence building team.

David, Joel, Paul and Adam. David and Paul were the official "worker bees." They got there on Wednesday and we took down the old fence. Thursday was fence post digging and post setting which those two did and then Friday and Saturday was fence put up day. Joel and Adam got there Thursday night. Thank you wives for letting the husbands take time off of work and spend it working.

Two helpers; Natalie and Ryan.

Random Photos.

Prior to Baby Noah coming we had a shower for Caitlan. I didn't take many pictures.

Caitlan's sister with her cute baby and Caitlan's mother.

Sarah and Steve helped put together this cute diaper cake. Thanks for coming all the way from Vegas.

Thanks for coming to the shower Jacee, Masie and Joanne.

We got to have some great grandkids over to play. Sofie, Natalie, Lauren, Lexie and Ryan.

Evelyn all smiles.
