Summer catch-up

My kids all pysched about the summer reading program (don't mention to Autumn though that we got too busy and we won't be going to the pool pary)



We have been so busy this summer, too busy to blog. Since Zephyr's baby blessing we have:

  • Went to Idaho for our nephew’s baby blessing
  • Went to New York for 11 days, helped put on a quilt show for my mom’s 50th birthday, saw Wicked and took all 3 kids down to NYC for a day
  • Had a 5 day Weinheimer reunion in Eden, Utah (had my dad visiting for a week for it)
  • Had cousin Nick visit at our house for a day
  • Ben’s little sister and her baby have been to Utah to visit 3 times and have spent time with them
  • My parents visited for a weekend for a friend’s wedding ad we had a great day at seven peaks
  • Took the family to Llama fest

Now it feels like summer is almost done, and I love summer, and we need to get Autumn all ready to start kindergarten!

Here is some assorted pictures from a variety of activities this summer.


Prairie had been wanting for a quite a while to have Zephyr sleep in her baby doll crib, she was thrilled


Zephyr




Ben wearing Zephyr in a wrap and then a sling. We have pictures of Ben doing and not me, because I do it all day everyday so it isn't picture worthy I guess.



The girls doing rockets with their Poopa (Ben's dad). Their favorite part is when the large rocket 's engine blew up and scared Grandmother and made her fall.

the girls spending quality time with Nick


Prairie's cutie face


Zephyr and some quality naked time. Let me just say that getting Zephyr naked is almost guarenteed he won't be fussy and will be VERY happy. I never really gave either of the girls naked time, but Zephyr gets it because he is actually happy and I am not holding him.
