Fall Fun up north!

Busy!

Busy Busy!

 

 Labor Day Truck parade...  "big trucks" was the phrase of the day!

 

 Ella's first day of riding the bus!

 

 Our camping weekend got completely rained out, so we quickly changed our plans and went to the circus!

 

Ella and Ty at the circus.  This was one of the strange faces he was making :)

 

 Ella lost her first tooth!! Look at that smile!

Art Prize 2014

Ella and her friend were able to cheer at the HCHS football game during the 2nd quarter!

Cort's first haircut!

Cort got his first haircut!  Although it appears that there isn't much hair to cut (all business),  you should have seen the party (mullet) in the back!

Let's just say it didn't quite go as hoped!

It seemed to be quite an unpleasant experience for him!   Maybe it was the adorable kids cheetah print cape that threw him off :)

Thanks to our wonderful hairdresser Jodi who managed a haircut amidst the movement and tears!

School

Although we are a few weeks into school, this is from Ella's first day!

The boys love to go to the bus stop with Ella too!

Summer Fun!

In between camping, vacations, birthday parties, and weddings, we had some other fun too!

Outside fun in the sun... with Riley!

 Face painting!

Blueberry picking!
 

  Splash Pad! 

That is Ella on the blue center, Ty in the green swim shirt, and Cort in the white swim shirt

They loved it!

 Ella and her friend Brooke at the zoo petting the sting rays!

The new tiger exhibit.  What a beautiful animal!

 All the little ones by the penguins, but where did the penguins go?

 Ending our day with Ella and Brooke at the splash pad!

Wedding

Ella took her 6th trip down the aisle this weekend as a flower girl!  

She is quite the professional!

Ella looked georgous as did everyone else:)

Camping with friends!

We spent a long weekend camping with friends.  In addition to wonderful company from the adults, the youth section was well represented as well!

 

 Between 3 families, we had age 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 2, 1 and 2 months (not pictured).

 Camping is fun and busy!  Sleeping generally doesn't go as well as when we are home.  So this bike ride proved to be too exhausting for the boys.  

That doesn't look comfortable!
