The Past Two Weeks

Anderson hanging off my arm while I talked on the phone.

Alexis and Samuel. She is so good to him.

Smiling on the rocking chair.

Squished into a tight outfit. The only time he wore this one. He's growing too fast! (And it wasn't cold when he was skinnier.) 

Kids on a roller coaster, licking their lollypops they got on Mommy dates. They've had a lot of fun on this roller coaster this week. The weather's been perfect!

Kylie holding Anderson during some conference reading.

I thought it was cute how Thomas was reading to Samuel on the stairs.

Alexis and her buddy, Anderson.

Ready for the BYU vs. ECU game! This was really exciting since so many people here are from BYU. It was hard for them to know who to root for. Guess who we picked? 

This shirt is one Nathan wore as a baby.

Last Sunday after an early dinner and family council we decided to be spontaneous and jump in the car and go for a drive out to the country, to the mansion neighborhood where we love to walk. It was me and all the kids except Spencer, who was in Utah with Nathan. It was super fun! The kids brought bags of candy and traded with each other as we walked. We laughed and talked and were all in great moods. The weather was perfect and the whole outing was perfect and memorable. You probably don't care about the pictures, but for memory's sake, here are the ones we took.

Approaching the ducks at the Brew's house.

Reading party! 

We ate popcorn and cookies around the table and then moved to the couch 

where we read for an hour or two. 

Having our fun homeschool friends over, the Walkers.

Hanging out on the floor 

and in the bouncer.

I got him laughing pretty good the other night.
