June 2012

We've been doing a lot this summer to keep ourself busy and out of the house. Just to name a few...Riding the lite rail to the D-backs game, watching the D-backs, swimming, going out of town, and trips to the mall.

Family Reunion

At the end of June we had a family reunion on Skylar's side of the family. We always look forward to the year of family reunion time. The weather was perfect in Heber and It was so nice to be around family and enjoy each other. Chandlar tried out the zip line, but I think she wasn't too fond of it,  she loved the swing that spins around like a merry-go-round this year, and playing with all of her awesome cousins, and of corse the sand pile. She even got to play a balloon toss, and make a cute little head-band with me. Chase had a blast on the regular swings and the nice sand pile as well, and Both generally just loved being in the great out doors. I can't complain myself, I love it up north this time of year. The last two sets of pictures are my favorite while we were at the reunion. My kids especially Chandlar have a personality of their own, and her many faces show it! Chase does as well, but I love how much he likes watermelon, he is such a hoot! Both of them crack me up and put a smile on my face everyday. I'm glad I am able to capture these moments when they are little so I can look back and remember how precious they are. It was a wonderful time at the reunion, and I'm  glad we were able to go.

Month of May

Here's a quick recap of how our month of May is going.....

We've resorted to playing more inside than outside due to the hot weather that we've been experiencing so early on ....Which means more imaginative playing is going on :) Look how cute they are taking care of their babies. Maybe its time for another one?? (or maybe not)

  

We've also been playing in the pool, thanks to Skylar's cousin who lets us come over and enjoy their awesome pool. 

We've decided to give Chase a real boy haircut for the hot summer months. Just look how grown up he looks with all of his hair gone. I absolutely love him! He turned 18 months old this month and isn't quite sure about nursery. Hopefully he'll get better as time goes on. He does normal boy things and can say so many words and is starting to combined words together. I don't know what I would do with out my busy boy.

Along with playing, swimming, and haircuts, the flu bug hit our home, so there's been lots of sleeping going on in our home as well. Poor Chase wasn't feeling well when I took this picture

But luckily everyone got better so we could hang out at the movie theater. We went and saw the Lorax. FYI, this was Chase's first movie, he did as well as I expected. I'll just put it this way, he's not quite ready for the movies. It was a lot of work!! But Chandlar did so good and loved being there and out of the house. Thanks Megan for the invite, we had a blast!

And to end the month we went to Lakeside for my nieces high school graduation (can't believe I have another niece all grown up and on her own) and Memorial Day.

Here's Chase at Gma's & Gpa's Webb's being silly with some dress up shoes (don't ask...all I can say is he has a girly girl as a sister, and sees her too many times with these things on...haha). 

And here is Chandlar riding the twister with her cousin. She has so much fun at Grandma and Grandpa Webb's house. She is so smart and beautiful! She is becoming such a great helper at home and I can already tell that she will be a great mom! Her motherly instincts come out when Chase gets hurt or is crying about something. I love how good she is with her younger sibling. Chandlar will be 4 this year, and I'm looking forward for her to start some kind of pre-school. I've been working with her on some of her letters and numbers and she loves it! That just shows me that she is ready for pre-school. I can't believe how big she is! She is wonderful!

So that is how our Month of May looked like. We are so excited for more summer fun!

Easter & Kids Club

Easter was super low key this year. We stayed home enjoyed each others company, and made ourselves a simple but yummy Easter dinner. The kids had a blast with their Easter baskets and hunting for easter eggs. It was a perfect sunday and we will always remember why we celebrate Easter. The Lord  truly blesses our little family. We are grateful for the Savior to overcome death so we as a family can be together for eternity! Hope everyone else had a great Holiday.

April has been a blast and we try each and every day to have fun. A couple weeks ago I signed up the kiddos to be in the Superstition Springs Mall kids club. Every thursday morning we go to the mall to enjoy reading and singing time, riding the carasoul for free and hanging out with friends. The kids love it and we always look forward to it. Its a great activity to do, so if your looking for something to do, go and sign up.....its ALL FREE! Here's a photo of my two littles having fun on their ride.

Family Pictures 2012

A good friend of ours took some great photos of our little family at the end of March. I was so pleased how they turned out! Its not always easy to get the kiddos to cooperate but we did get a few and they are super cute. We have a ton more but these are the ones she has edited so far. I can't wait until they are all done so I can share! For now these will do....I love my family! Thanks Amie! :)
