Bonnets
With our Stake Pioneer Trek coming up, and with Ava's Birthday on Pioneer day, I had way too much fun making bonnets for my girls!
Lazy days of summer
Just a few pictures of what my kiddos are doing when we have no plans, no schedules to keep, and the sun is shining!
Jack turned seven!
Jack had a super fun birthday! Jack is incredibly smart, loving, and charming. We love him like crazy!

How we have been staying busy
I have to say I don't reccomend moving with a six month old baby...it was kind of like moving with the use of only one arm. It took a little longer than I hoped to get settled in, but we did!
Dave is really happy with his job right now. Working for a University has been a really fun experience for him.
Within two weeks of moving I got called to be the Young Women's 2nd Counselor. I was so excited to still work with the Young Women! We got back from girl's camp a few weeks ago and it was so great. I absolutely love these girls!
Clark is diving at the U of U, and has made leaps and bounds with his diving. He has had no problem making friends here. We have girls knocking on the door to bring him goodies almost on a weekly basis. Yikes! Clark has enjoyed learning to snowboard and he loves being outside ALL the time.
Lauren has made some great friends, has enjoyed going to two different girls camps, and can't wait for Trek this August! She has enjoyed being able to go to dances now that she's fourteen.
Nicholas and Jack enjoyed taking a bus to school, and have made lots of friends! Nicholas earned his Webelos badge and enjoyed going to camp for a few days. Jack had about 8 field trips the last few weeks of school, so he felt like he was on vacation.
Nate has loved the snow, and is usually outside with Clark. He continues to smother Ava with kisses daily.
Ava now has seven teeth and is crawling. She can say a few words and always folds her arms for prayers. She has a crazy high pitched scream that she loves to practice too!
Hopefully I will get around to posting our summer pictures. Summer here is amazing!!

I'm Back!
Okay...it's been waaay too long since my last post. Life gets crazy busy, and even though I've thought about blogging at least on a weekly basis it just didn't happen. Things are way calm and relaxed right now so I decided I better catch up!
This picture sums up the first few months we were here in Utah...it's chilly, and we LOVE it here! (Corny, I know!)
