Kelsi's Pictures

A friend of mine, who is starting up a photography business, took some pictures of Kelsi and is going to be taking some pictures of our family on Saturday. If you want to check out the pictures of Kelsi here is her blog. Rachel Belle Photography I think they turned out great.

It's about time...

Okay so blogging and reading blogs hasn't been a strong point for me lately. So now I will do a little catching up. I have probably lost the few followers I had because of the lack of blogging. So here is a picture overview of the last few months.

July

4th of July fun!

Just relaxing

A bit of silliness.

24th in St. Johns. Watching the parade.


Loved this float. Abe actually stood up and sat down. It was neat to see a parade that actually had some real floats. Not just political and business ads.

August

Back to school

Kelsi is in 3rd

Shaylee is in 1st

Build a Bear Workshop


We has a trip to Tucson for the Gaslight theater and Build a Bear. We all had a blast. The girls each made a stuffed animal and we watched Space Wars at the Gaslight Theater. It was a farce on the movie Star Wars. It was so much fun. If you have never been to the Gaslight Theater in Tucson, I would highly recommend it. They do a great job of entertaining in a family friendly way.

September

Was a slow month for pictures. I don't think I took many at all. This month was full of school and more school for the girls.

Kelsi did get to make some eatable art at school that she really enjoyed.


October

Riding the Merry-Go-Round at the County Fair

Shaylee's art project her class did for the fair.

The amazing juggler at the fair.

The three of them.

November thus far hasn't been too bad. Courtney and I did have to make a trip this last weekend to Gilbert for dental work. Poor Courtney had cavities that needed to be filled. Being that she is still so young she had to have an IV sedation. She did very well and I am grateful she wasn't awake to deal with how many times she was poked to get the IV in. She has about 10 or 12 puncture wounds from them trying to find a vein that would work. All she remembers is the initial shot they gave her to put her to sleep.

The highlight thus far for November has been the official adoption of my nephew Samuel to his parents Jason and Kelly Edington followed by their sealing in the Gila Valley Temple as an eternal family. What a wonderful blessing that is.

November has a few more exciting and fun things yet for us and many things to be thankful for.
