How Cute

One night I couldn't sleep, so I got up around 1 to check on the kids. I don't know why I found this so funny (maybe it was the lack of sleep).

I just had to get pictures. Then I laughed hard enough I woke Kayla up.

Here's my stink bug. Don't know why but this is his favorite sleeping position.

Meeting Alli

Yea, I'm a proud aunt. I'm so glad she's here. I forgot how little newborns are, I felt like I was going to break her after packing Dustin around.









Kayla was very excited to finally hold Alli since she had to wait til Pam was home.


So was Aurie. They love their new little cousin.

Logan Canyon

I don't remember ever seeing Logan Canyon this green in mid July so I just had to take pictures.

I'm so lucky to live so close to places this beautiful.

Dustin loved the water.

Once he discovered it he wanted to stay.

New paint and carpet.

The finished product.

Fireworks

Ok so I know the pictures are not as good as the real thing, but this is the first time I've taken pictures of fireworks, I was amazed that they worked.

So this was Dustin's first firework show, I thought I'd see some kind of expression but this was all I got.

And it didn't change.

One more.

First Camping Trip of the Year

Our first camping trip this year was up Logan Canyon. It was so much fun, we can't wait to go again.

Dustin is such a boy. He loves the 4-wheelers.

And playing in the dirt.

Gotta love the view from the top of a mountain.
