Here are a few family pictures that mom took while she was here...

Here are a few pictures from when mom and dad came to visiting a couple of weeks ago.  It is always fun to see them.

 Happy Birthday Kiley   Faith!  It is hard to believe you are 5 already.


  Last weekend we headed to Austin to celebrate.  We spent the night at a hotel and just did fun activities around town.  The kids had fun and we ended up bringing home a bunny!  Kiley loves animals so hopefully Spot and her will be friends for a long time.

movie and pizza in the hotel room

  

Spot rode home in the car for the 45 min drive and did great...We got him a harness and leash but he is not loving it so we will see, I just don't want to have to leave him the cage all the time...

Celebrating with her classmates.  We had
cupcakes during lunch.  One of the parents
from my class was able to stay with first grade
so I was able to eat lunch with her!

Field trip to feed the duck after reading Ping

Well September is here.  We have enjoyed the rest of the summer, started school, and are getting into the grove of school.

Enjoying time at the lake

Feeding the dolphins at Sea World

First day of school at Providence 2012

Eli invited Kiley and I into his room for a picnic the other day.
He had drinks, snacks, and books for us to read... 

Brian did a tri (swim, hike, ruck) we did the last
part with him hiking up the hills at Dana Peak

Deep chats with Eli and Caleb

Field trip #2 to the creek, Kiley doing her paper
after she explored...

Eli and Kiley had a lot of fun being in Abby's wedding.  Thanks for letting us be part of you big day!

 



This was Kiley watching the wedding party swing dance
can you tell she was impressed?!

Talking with Great Grandpa Frazee...

Dancing with uncle Jasper - after she saw the
swing dancing all she really wanted to
do was flip so Jas got his workout...



This may not look like anything to special just some dancing but I think it is monumental - Blake is on the dance floor doing the chicken dance with Kiley and if you notice he does have a smile.  Thanks Blake!

Eli danced too, but I think he was moving around so fast I could never get his picture...

Thought I better get a post in for July...
Here is a little photo dump from our trip to KS.  We always have fun on the farm.

Doing a little archery with Papa

The kids playing on the 'playground' that Grandma and Papa
made for them at the pond

Kiley and the kittens that Grandma got for her to play with...
If she was outside she had them with her - she is such an animal girl

Fishing fun with Andrew - Uncle Jasper was so good to us and cooked up all the fish we caught - Kiley loved it.

Lighting fireworks on the dock...

July 4th at the pond

Kiley is not a fan of loud noise therefore fireworks were not a favorite.
We did finally convince her to do a sparkler and she liked the snakes
beyond that she typically ran for the house...

Playing some Life with Tyse and Andrew

Having some deep conversation with Great
Grandpa Sanner

Eli loved doing the diving board at the pool -
this was a first for him.
