Happy fathers day to cody! he's so sweet

with lexi and she is lucky to have such a good dad!

she just loves him more than i know how

to explain, the day doesnt get any better

than when he gets home to wrestle!

The bug's first hair cut...

it was just the bangs, but still counts


Cody gets a little upset when birds
come and eat our garden, so he has set up camp
outside and takes care of the problem.
can you say "hick?"
(good thing his chair is camo, they'll
never see him that way)


Jenni and Janie!

Andy got to spend his birthday at

the hogle zoo, and we got to go with him!

look at him surrounded by girls!

he needs the "lock up your daughters"

shirt too, like cole!

this is lexi's attempt at being an elephant.

the long arm in the air is her "trunk"

lifting up while she makes a loud noise!

and all the kids loved nana's treat of

letting them go on the carousel

but it was pretty exhausting.



and i guess the first nap wasn't enough...

clearly lexi got the memo about nana's driving,

she is always hanging onto the inside of the seat :)

Our pineveiw camping trip got rained out and

turned into a causey trip, which was still

super fun ( for those of us not stuck inside

throwing up, sorry) While the weather

was good we did lots of 4-wheeling, and

the kids LOVED it!

the girls still like each other enough to give

kisses, despite their nice bed head.

lexi seems to be quite adventurous and

usually leading someone behind her.

after ayla following lexi into the water

in their clothes, ashley said they cant

be friends once they are teenagers, worried

about what lexi will lead ayla to by then :)

lexi doing her " it go?!" anytime anyone leaves

its pretty intense trying to figure out "where'd it go?"

and she flaps her arms out like that

multiple times, while trying to figure it out!

Summer Fun

One of cody's favorite days came around again..

the salmon fry (i know fish is disgusting)

but he likes it and unfortunately lexi likes it too.

and it was madi's birthday party too, woo hoo she's

three! and had such a fun party, she loved her

tinkerbell cake and all of her princess presents!

and before we played in the sprinklers at nanas..

lexi and ayla really loved it!!
