9 Years

Greg and I have been married for 9 years today!
I really am such a lucky girl to have Greg. He is such a great husband and father.
We didn't really celebrate today because we are going to Snowbird on Saturday for a "romantic" get-a-way. So we just took the girls to Zupas and I got beautiful flowers.

I LOVE you! Thanks for 9 great years and to many many more!
mmmwwaaaaaaaaa!

Swim Lessons

We did swim lessons with Katie 2 years ago when she was Brielle's age and she HATED it! She cried the entire time and didnt pass the level. So I figured the best thing to do was to wait till Brielle could do the lessons with her and maybe that would help her.

Luckily we got in the same class as some friends too.

(above picture: Carter, Katie, Ella, Brielle, and Maren)

So far she is doing great, although she sits an shivers the entire class... we really need to get some fat on her!
Brielle has always loved the water! She is a little fish

HaPPy BiRtHDaY Ella!

The girls cousin Ella turned 5 yesterday and she had a cute "fish" themed party. We had so much fun... the girls love Ella- HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Ella got this fun battery operated car which she took all the kids for rides in. Don't you love the view form the front of their house? That is the new Oquirrh Mountain temple- so pretty!
I forgot my camera so I stole these pictures from Holly and Emily's blogs (hope that OK =))

HaPPy BiRtHDaY CaRTer!

CaRtER is 3 (this is him holding up 3 fingers- ha ha!)Daddy taking the girls for a horse ride.

The Paris' really know how to throw a fun party. They have had these same petty zoo people come for a few of Addison's birthdays and its always FUN!

Marty took the kids for a ride on his motorcycle. I didn't get a picture of Katie and Addison riding but they had so much fun! Thanks Marty

Who needs little boys

Katie has really grown to love bugs this summer. She is constantly asking me to help her find some bugs. Last night we were outside mowing the lawn and it had rained a lot earlier in the day so there were snails everywhere.
The girls were letting them crawl or slither (or whatever they do?) all over their arms. Yes.. they did get a bath! The definetely did not learn this love of bugs from their mother- Thanks Greg!

Happy BirThDaY little BroTHeR!

Today is my little brother Wilson's Birthday. I can't believe he is 18 and graduating from highschool in a few days. I was in highschool when he was born and that doesn't seem like it was very long ago (man I'm old!!!)

Wilson is such a great Kid, he has played baseball since he was little and he's really good. He is an awesome musician and artist. I'm so proud of him and wish him the best of luck!!
