SPlisH sPlaSH !!!!

The summer has finally started and we have already spent a few days at the pool. All three girls love it, and could play in the water all day! The twins don't even care that the water is kinda chilly for them, they would swim away in it, if they could!! This makes for not such a relaxing pool time, but that is OK!


Kennedy sitting on the stair!
Logan is just as brave as last year. She needed her Daddy to catch her off the diving board a few times but then after that she was going and going all by herself!
Now she is even learning "tricks" like twisting in the air and jumping backwards!
She didn't get her swim hair done this day and so she had some crazy hair all day!
Hailey and chubby little Wyatt!
Me and Kennedy!
Kennedy, Karsyn, and Makinlee in the boat!
Grandma Lindee and Karsyn. Thank goodness my mom is usually there with us to help out, we always need the extra pair of hands especially around water with these two!
Me and Hailey with our crooked glasses...we are so hot again Hailey!
Going down the little slide...I love the tube and water wings going into the shallow, like she is going to die or something!
The little gals just chilin in the water!
Girls after my own heart...loving their licorice!
And cookies
Kenndy took about 15 minutes to eat this one cookie!
Clay taking a break from his snorkeling!
The dorks and their gear!
Why does he always grab himself somewhere when I take a picture? Oh and doesn't he look hot in his goggles!
Clay...I wonder what he is finding down there?
Now for the trick time...after the boys were bored with snorkeling they started diving and flipping (I guess that is what it would be called) Here is Clay doing a flip!
The typical "Kurt flip" legs flailing and plugging his nose!
I got this one at the wrong time but Clay was jumping pretty high and getting a lot of air!
There is Kurt plugging his nose again and I think this time he landed right on his back...another typical thing for Kurt to do!
Logan watching the boys doing "tricks"!
This picture was just funny because Clay went to kick Kurt off the board and so he just jumped in and it looks like he jumped right into the wall... what a chicken!

Logan's Preschool Graduation!!!

Our little girl is getting so BIG!!! She finished her first year of preschool. I think it is funny that they call it a graduation because she still has one more year, but here it is!!!
They of course did a little program that they had been practicing for a while with songs and little parts that they all had to have memorized. Their teacher Miss Megan said at the beginning that she knows that all the kids know these songs and their parts because every time they would practice they would sing so loud they would wake up her baby upstairs! And then of course, you could barely hear any of them singing...typical kids! Here is Logan doing the Pledge of Allegiance with her wrong hand..haha!
Karsyn hanging out in the grass "watching the program"!
Kurt holding Kennedy during the program!
Logan saying her part..."The cow jumped over the moon in Hey Diddle Diddle. And did you know too the cat plays the fiddle". She knew her part so good but when she got up there she wouldn't say a word. I think at the end she started to say something, but there was a loud jet that went over so nobody but Megan heard it! Good job Logan!
This is some of her classmates singing the "Tootie Tot" song...if you all know that! Logan was just kinda just watching, but the kids that were actually doing it, it was hilarious!
Logan getting her graduation book and cap!
Oh and a little goodie bag, that was her favorite part!
Our little graduate!!
Logan and Mommy! I am so proud of Logan, she is really shy when she is with people she doesn't know, but I can see that she has really come out of her shell with all her new friends that she made in school this year. She didn't know anyone going into it, and now says that she loves to go to school with all of her "friends" and always asks to play with them all. She also learned so much. She can write her full name along with all the other letters in the alphabet, and also her numbers. It is so crazy how much kids grow up and learn over the 3-4 year age. Kurt and I are constantly amazed at the things she knows and says. We love you Logan!
Mommy, Daddy, and Logan!
Hailey, Makinlee, and Wyatt were so nice to come and support Logan and they even brought her this cute pink gerber! (My favorite)! Thanks so much for coming!
The only 3 girls in her class...Emily, Jaiden, and Logan! She talked about these "friends" all the time!
Logan and her teacher Miss Megan.
Logan and Grandma Laurie. We always have such great support for anything our family does and this was no different. Grandma Laurie took off from work for a few hours to come, Grandma Lindee, who was not feeling good at all, still came, and then my sister Hailey and her kids. Thanks so much for coming everyone and for all the help we have had with the girls and Logan this school year to make it possible for Logan to get out and play with her friends and learn in preschool!!!

Start of Summer fun!

Well if it seems like I posted a lot of park pictures already, I have! We have been going to the park a lot lately before it gets too hot because Logan loves to play on the playground and the little girls love to go hang out on the blanket watching their big sister!
One great thing about daddy being home right now is he can come to the park with us!
Mommy and Logan!
ME!
I don't get many cute pictures of both the girls because I think they have a secret communication between each other that tells them who is supposed to look and who is supposed to turn away...and then they switch! TWINS!!!
Logan is loving all the play time she gets with her daddy because I am usually just on the grass watching her!
Kurt helping Logan climb the "big kid toy"!
Karsyn!
Kennedy...yes that is dirt. Are there any calories in dirt, I was kinda hoping so since she got a big mouth full of it by the time I noticed she was into it!
Just a really random picture of Logan with all her "friends"! She is so into Barbies right now and has a "few" of them!
We also went camping for the first time this summer last night. We went up to Farmington Canyon hoping to go to our "usual" spot...it was taken!!! So we headed up farther up the canyon and found another spot. Here is Logan and cousin Makinlee. They were such good friends on this little over nighter and had so much fun together!
Logan waiting outside for Hailey, Clay, Wyatt and Makinlee to get there!
An action shot of Wyatt being his happy little self!
Me, Logan and Kinlee with the "pretty flower" Logan found (which were obviously everywhere)
Hailey feeding Wyatt...his favorite time of day!
Logan just chillin waiting for dinner to be ready!
The boys getting dinner ready to put on the fire...the best part of camping right!
Me and Kurt in front of the beautiful sunset...I am not sure what he was going to do with that shovel!
Our camping buddies...the Pitcher fam...Sorry Clay this one Wyatt was actually looking so I posted this one! You look cute still though! Aren't they the cutest little family!
Roasting marshmellows! I love it that Logan is old enough to actually enjoy all this stuff now! By the way we left the twins at home, maybe next time we will bring them and see how they do in the great outdoors...that will be fun!
Makinlee in her sweet "fire glasses"! She got these glasses when she went to the eye doctor the other day and all night she kept saying that the fire was too hot and it was hurting her eyes. In order for her to be able to roast her marshmellow Clay put these glasses on her and she was good to go the rest of the night! It was pretty funny!
Getting all messy with the mallow!
Our hubbies bums...nice bums dumping out the grease for our breakfast!
Wyatt hanging out in his seat...for the moment. He doesn't really stay in there now because he is too busy, which is probably why he is giving me this look!
Me and my beautiful (I know I always say that but it is true) little sister Hailey! Aren't we so hot in the morning after a few hours of sleep...we know!
Logan and Kinlee exploring the "new" place. We were so bugged that our, by our I mean "OUR" spot that we claimed, was taken by someone but we had fun at this new spot and it gave the girls some new territory to explore and claim...plus it was a little safer than the other one!
Logan and her "thing" she made. She wouldn't put this shovel down either!
This picture doesn't look that funny to everyone I am sure, but Kinlee was standing on the shovel like her daddy does in the yard and she looked so funny because she doesn't weigh enough to have the shovel even go a millimeter into the ground.
Best buds (for the moment anyway)
Eating their breakfast that the daddy's made on their cooler! They thought they were pretty cool! We had so much fun on our short camping trip and are so excited for more this summer! Thanks guys!
