Princess Kaitlyn

Kaitlyn got to dress up and go with her two cousins and her grandparents to a Princess Festival.

Ashley and Kelsey decided to make it a fun day for her. They gave her a menu and fixed her French toast, fruit, and hot chocolate for breakfast. They are very sweet to their sister.

Oregon

We were able to take a trip this summer with the Morrisons to the Oregon coast. The views were beautiful and the cool weather was a welcome relief from the summer heat of Utah.

The girls didn't seem to mind the cold water. They spent several hours playing on the beach and in the water. Ashley convinced me one day that the water didn't feel very cold, so I ventured out a little further in the water. It just so happened that a big wave came rolling in at that very moment and managed to drench me. The water was definitely cold!

The beach house we stayed in is in the distance. Even though Scot and I didn't play in the water as much as the kids, we still enjoyed the beach.

Our growing boy

Justin seems to be all smiles these days, especially when he is eating. He must have gotten a little overly excited during this feeding.

Becoming more mobile has opened up an ex iting new world for him, which apparently brings even more smiles.

His excitement also seems to be growing about the prospects of being a pharmacist one day like his daddy. Can you picture our future pharmacist?

Birthdays

One of the fun things about having birthdays in the summer is that you get to play in water! During the past couple of months, each one of our girls have had a birthday.

All of the girls had fun in the water at Kaitlyn's birthday party.
