A Day at the Beach



This weekend we went to the lake front to watch an Air and water show. After sitting there for 3 hours waiting for it to start, unfortunately it ended up being cancelled due fog. The fog was too thick for the planes to perform. We were sad it was cancelled but we had a fun time playing on the beach anyway.



A Day at the Farm


For play group this week our ward went to farm that is about 30 min away. It was a lot of fun. Hailey loved the animals as long as she didnt get too close. We saw Horses, sheep, goats and chickens. It was perfect weather for a perfect day at the farm.

Memorial Day Weekend

We had a wonderful Memorial Day weekend! On Saturday we went to the Lake front for a Kite festival. It was so much fun. The weather we perfect. There were a lot of people but it was on a huge grassy area that it didnt seem that crowded. Everyone was there flying their kites. But the main act of entertainment was the professional kite fliers. They were AMAZING. I never knew you could do that many things with a kite. The acts were all set to music. They would do the most incredible things with these kites and they would never get tangled up. They also had quiet a few larger kites just flying in the air. The biggest on there was a large octopus that was 140 feet long. It was HUGE. Here are a few pictures.

One Year Older and Wiser too.....

Hailey turned one at the beginning of the month. We cant believe how fast the past year has gone. We had a great day. Dan had the day off school and the weather was between 75-80. So we took advantage of that and went to the Zoo. The zoo here is amazing. It is so big and there are so many fun animals. We were there for about 2 1/2 hours and still didnt see everything. We came home and had dinner as a family and then a birthday celebration. She got so many fun things. Dan and I gave her a walker, a bucket full of blocks, a new dress and her very first Doll. She loves her "baby". Its so cute to hear her say baby. Its the first thing she asks for in the morning when she wakes up. So we go find baby and she gives her "loves" and kisses". Its so cute.

Matt and Amie and their kids came over to see the birthday girl. It was so fun to have them here to celebrate with us. Hailey loves her cousins!! Here are a few pictures from the big day.

Hailey got so many fun toys and cute outfits. I dont know if she had more fun with her toys or the Wrapping paper.







Hailey loved her Cupcake. At first she didnt know what to with something so yummy. Then she figured it out.



Up close to the Tiger. Hailey got a little nervous being that close.

Big Girl

Hailey is growing up so fast. We cant believe she will be 1 year old this week. The has a personality that is larger than life. She is so much fun and keeps us laughing. We love her so much!!

She is always such a happy little girl!!

Everything Hailey gets a hold of she pretends to "talk on the phone"

Hailey has stated trying to put her shoes and socks on all by herself

The first time Hailey discovered her shadow. She was talking to it wondering why it wouldn't talk back.

Hailey was helping me clean out the fridge by putting all her bowls and cups inside!


Hailey thinks she is too big for a sippy cup. She loves drinking out of mommys water bottles.

Spring Break

During Dans spring break, we took a couple days and went to an indoor water park resort with some friends. We had a blast. Hailey loved the water. We cant wait till she is big enough to enjoy the water slides.




Dan has been studying like crazy. He has had 7 tests in the last 5 school days. He works so hard and his test scores prove it!

This is Dan's favorite thing to do during his breaks.

Brewers game

WE MADE IT!!!

We have arrived in Wisconsin. We got here on the 14th of August and are just trying to get settled. We are still in boxes but slowly making progress unpacking. The trip is about 1400 miles and we drove it in 3 days. Hailey was a trooper. There were times she had enough of her car seat and wanted to get out. I dont blame her, I wanted to get out too!! Once we arrived we arrived it was so fun to see Matt, Amie, Kaylee, and Josh. It was hard to leave family behind but was a lot easier knowing we had family waiting for us. We are excited for Hailey to have cousins to play with.

We cant believe the summer is pretty much over. It went by so fast! But we had a lot of fun. This past week we had a Family Reunion and also a trip to Lake Powell. There is no better way to end a summer. We are already looking forward to next summer.

Nothing more refreshing!!!

Over the 4th of July weekend we went up to our cabin in Island Park with my family. It is beautiful up there. We had fun riding on the boat, playing around on wave runners and just hanging out with the family!!! On saturday there was a boat parade. People decorated their boats and drove them around the lake. Later that night there was a beautiful firework show above the lake. It was so pretty how they reflected off the lake. We had such a fun trip!!
