Here is a combination of two of Ava's dearest loves: swings, and buckets as hats. This one she especially loves because it is clear, and she can see through it. Silly girl!

My mom came over to help me re-sew the bodice on Ava's original blessing dress. Ava didn't wear it as a baby because it was way too huge! I made the mistake of waiting until the night before to try it on her and she was literally swimming in it. I ended up hyperventilating at the Distribution Center as they helped me find a dress.
So when my mom came, I pulled out the dress, and laughed at the size of it. "I bet she could still wear this," I said. So, 18 months later, Ava finally fits into her blessing dress. Ignore Jacob in the background. He was helping hold her so she wouldn't try to walk and trip on the dress. I've finished re-sewing it so Kayla can wear it this Sunday!

FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL
I didn't remember about taking a picture until the boys were getting ready for bed. Isaac has taken to sleeping in his underwear, and insisted on taking the photo in his underwear, with his backpack on. I relented, knowing I could maybe use this photo as blackmail someday, I don't know know, threaten to show it to Prom dates, etc....but it still is adorable. So here he is with a sign I drew -



FISHING WITH DADDY AND GRANDPA
Nathan and his dad, Kirt, took the boys to Flaming Gorge the weekend before school started. They got to bring grandpa's boat and camp out overnight, all the good stuff. Jacob had a little bit of a hard time, he felt cold on the boat and got sick on the way home. Here he is, wrapped up in a sleeping bag on the boat, in the middle of August. Poor little guy!
