Lovely locks

I caught my girls in the bathroom doing hair the other day. I loved their facial expressions and how Addison kept copying Brooklyn! These two crack me up everyday!

Hanging with the cousins....

The girls had their cousins over this week to hang out while Kiley and Dennis went out for her birthday. They had a pizza party and had fun doing shoulder and piggy back rides! The girls enjoyed having them over to play! I grab the camera and the girls of course strike a pose! Man, their cute!

4th of July 2010

We had a long and super fun weekend!!! We had our traditional breakfast at my Dad's on Saturday which was also Addison's birthday. After that we came home to get ready for Addison's party! It was fun to have the family all together! Later that night we watched the Magna fireworks from our house and did some of our own!

Water fun!

The girls have been so excited to get out in their new pool, so we spent a few days outside so they could play! They have loved having Riley & Kenza to play with too!

New Do's.....

BEFORE & AFTER.......

Brooklyn has been so excited to go to Bonnie's house for her haircut, techinally this is her first REAL haircut....we've trimmed in the past, but this is the first BIG one. Addison was SO good, she sat so still for her, and was such a big girl!
Brooklyn got about 2 inches cut off w/ a little layer and Addison got her bangs cut and a cute little bob! I LOVE THE new do's!!!!! It makes them look even bigger......*sigh*! :)

I also got my hair done, which I LOVE too!

Goodbye Summer, Hello Fall!

These pictures were taken the same day. I see a copy cat!

One last Hurrah for Summer! Now bring on FALL!!!!

This is one of my favorite times of the year. There is something about the chill in the air, pumpkin season, fall leaves and homeade soup that I love. Oh, besides being the start of all the holiday hoop-la, bring it on!

An apple a day....

well it kept the Dr. away, but not a little bad luck... :) (inside joke there).

Anyway, my little family and Lori went down to my Dad and Polly's to help pick apples on their two trees in the backyard! It really was very fun! Brooklyn is now a "Pro Apple Picker"!

Addison was a big helper too, she would put the apples that were on the ground in the buckets. She loved carrying them around and following her sister.

Dad and Polly, we had a fun fun time! Love you!

Brooklyn's first day of Preschool

Brooklyn has been waiting for this day for MONTHS. It finally came, she went to her first day of preschool last Friday. She had her backpack FULL of things to take with her. We emptied it the night before and she was able to take ONE toy for Show-and-Tell. Her cousin Ryan is in her class, but he was on vacation with his family for the first day. Aunt Sand (her teacher) said Brooklyn did great! I know she will continue to do great! I am so proud of my Brookie, love you sweetie!!!

Oh and a side note....I didn't cry, alot of you have asked me! Maybe a little emotional because I can't believe she is that big, but I didn't cry!

ahhhhh! They make me smile! :)

When a 3 year dresses herself....

So....we have a hat, last year's halloween shirt, a hula skirt, and boots! Oh by the way, this was earlier today, she NOW has on a dress and her princess high heel shoes. What a girl! :)

24th fun!

Here are some pics from the 24th..... Tres, Mel & Hayden joined us for some food and fireworks!!

How could I forget THIS!!!!

We have been working so hard on this for months! I can officially say she is potty trained!!!! Ok well we're working on the nighttime, but most mornings she is dry when she wakes up! I would consider that trained. WE ARE SO EXCITED FOR HER TOO!!!!!! Good job Brooklyn!!!!

Look who's walking!!!!!

YEAH!!! We are so excited for our little Addie to be walking now! Brookie will have oh so much fun having a buddy to chase!

I love to see the Temple....

Last Friday we went to the Oquirrh Mtn Temple open house. What a beautiful temple! My girls were so good, of course until we were seated in a sealing room. Addison decided to show off her screaming skills and wanted to play! Nice! They really were good though! Brooklyn loved the chandeliers, but her favorite part was the water fountain outside! I know we went to the Timpanogos Temple open house when we were younger with my family, but this was an awesome experience as a mother to be able to take my own children! Who knows...maybe they will choose to get married there. It will be fun to share these pictures with them when they are older!
