Kylie went to stay with Sara for the week and one time when Talea was being super cute I took her picture and sent it to Kylie to entice her to come home.:) We missed her!
Spinning
Wednesday: Reading books with Lauren, one of Sam's therapists.
Everyone reaching over the railing hunting for blackberries.
This picture didn't come out how I wanted but I loved watching my 3 older girls pass Talea between then, all vying for her attention, playing with her, and talking with each other. I love how they're all best friends.
Kait and Kenna wanted me to take pictures of them going off the diving board.
We only go swimming a couple of times a year so we're not good swimmers.
Tilly going off the diving board.
I love this picture of Alexis and Talea so happy in the pool together.
Thursday: Off to nature school! This week I only had the younger 5 and it was so fun getting to spend so much time with them and teach them about nature. We had a great time.
Makenna
Samuel
This is a plant that gave Makenna a rash but I don't know what it is. I'm struggling learning the names of Utah plants and haven't found good books to teach me. It was super easy in NC for some reason.
A little creek we sat by and played in.
Eating lunch
Andy and Sam
Makenna eating her fettucini she brought. When she climbed up on the log she accidently dropped her container and her noodles and green beans fell out. She was able to rescue the noodles without much dirt on them, but the green beans weren't saved. It was so funny. It was the only food she brought so wanted to eat it anyway.
Talea
Kaitlyn sketching our surroundings.
Makenna waiting while roll was taken. Her first day of gymnastics class! She and Kaitlyn were beyond excited. I've always wanted our kids to get to do gymnastics too so I wanted to cry of happiness through the whole thing.
There is just makeshift equipment set up at the rec center, so it's not a real gym but it's cheap and they loved it.
Friday: Eating dinner with another girl Spencer brought over (far left.) As soon as he's 16 he'll be dating every Friday night for sure. He already has a lot of girlfriends.
I loved looking out the kitchen window while I did dishes and watching all the kids jump on the trampoline with Abbie.
Saturday: We saw this air balloon coming down near our neighborhood then jumped in the van to chase it. The little kids loved that.
Picking from our garden that's at Brother Tarbet's house.
Emma Walker, our homeschool friend from NC flew in and is staying with us a few days before Kylie takes her down to BYU this week. She's never been on an airplane or seen Utah so it's really fun having her here.
