Swimming Lessons

The girls took swimming lessons for the month of August. They LOVED it! Andie took a class with her friend Ari and I took the mommy and me class with Elsie. They both loved going and were sad when it ended. Now Andie loves to visit Grandma and Papa so she can show them her skills in the hot tub. We will definitely have to take lessons again soon.

Dinosaur Museum 2011

While Grandma D was here we took the girls to the Dinosaur Museum. They liked looking at how big all of the dinosaurs were and playing in the sand making their own dinosaur land. I love them at the age they are right now. We have so much fun all of the time!

Thanksgiving Point Animals 2011

I always have to take advantage of Thanksgiving Point in August for $2 Tuesdays. As always the girls loved the animals and Elsie got into a lot more this year. Of course their favorite part was riding the ponies. They wanted to ride them over and over again.  It was so hot that day but they didn't have a care in the world.

Vacation!

Adam and I were able to take a week long vacation this summer WITHOUT kids! My mom was so nice and offered to watch the girls for us. We were able to go up to Sandpoint with Adams Aunt and Uncle and Cousins. We pretty much spent our whole week on the boat and relaxing. I had never been there and it was so pretty!

 

Yes, it was pretty much Adam wake boarding and surfing and I was there to cheer him on. 

 

                                                     
 Yes, that is me waking boarding. Heather and I tried it for a while and then decided tubing was more for us. I think my arms hurt for three days after this!

Just looking at these pictures makes me want to go back! We had so much fun and miss everyone. I cant wait until next year.

24th of July

I know I know! I have been the worst blogger ever. I am going to make up for it though. I am going to go back and blog everything since this is the closest thing I have to a journal or scrapbook.
    So we were in Idaho for the 24th of July. It is one of my favorite parades so we took the girls and my friend Charish and cute little Hawkins and went to the parade. They had some awesome floats and gave out TONS of candy. Of course the kids loved the popsicle's since it was so hot. Then when it was over we headed up to the fairgrounds for the festivities.

The girls loved riding the horses and the toys. The horses were pretty big compared to what they have rode in the past but they were all for it.

I think the end was Elsie's favorite part when we watched the horse races. She was screaming and yelling at them the whole time.
