Mylie's Apple Orchard Field Trip

This was so fun! We had to buy apples and peaches at the end and they were sooooo yummy!

Mylie and her class!

We even got to see some deer while we were there. All the kids were so excited!


Kelsie Izee Mylie and Max and their personally picked apples!


Mylie loved climbing the ladder and picking her own apple!


Deep concentration! This really was a great field trip. I love that the kids get to learn about how apples grow, pick an apple, and then go home and eat it!

Ethan's field trip to Red Butte

The teachers didn't need any more parents to help with the field trip but Weston and mom and I all decided that we would tag a long anyway! Well as soon as we got there we lost Ethan's group and didn't find him until the end of the field trip! Oh well, we still had tons of fun and it was beautiful! Mylie was at preschool so we missed having her there!

Mom and Weston and the two sleeping babies! Thanks guys for coming along!

Xander showing off his cute little booty! I had to take a pic!




SO cute! Xander is such a cute smiley baby! Thanks for coming buddy!

Rocket Launch with Grandma Frazier!

Grandma Frazier is the head of the young astronauts at her school and as part of that she heads the rocket lauch every year. This year she brought some of the rockets down to the school by us and let the grandkids launch them. They had a great time! Here is Hunter and his rocket right after lift off!

Here is Ethan's right as his rocket is taking off!


The kids all had so much fun. The rockets shoot way up into the sky and I think that we lost a couple of them! Thanks Grandma Frazier!

Mylie Fall Soccer 2010

Here is my cute little Mylie soccer player in her first year of soccer. She is a proud player on the Orange Pumpkin team!

Here is one of Mylie's biggest fans at the game!

We don't really know what happened here. They all just decided to have a random dog pile in the middle of the field, in the middle of the game. I guess that's what you get when three year olds play soccer!


So cute! Just another pic sitting on the sidelines!



Mylie and two of her buddies Kelsie and Kira!



5's after a goal!


Way to go My! Mylie did amazing at her first game! She scored 3 goals and was loving it! I think she only scored a couple more goals the rest of the season but she still loved being there!



Coach Jeff (and his mini coach Ethan) giving some direction. Ethan loved helping Jeff coach this year. He even chose to do this instead of playing on the playground most of the time!

Ethan's Fall Soccer 2010

E being silly before the game.

Mo made this great sign for the kids to run through. They loved it!


Run boys run!

Seeing that Jeff and I are the first and second biggest fan's of Ethan, this is Ethan's third biggest fan! Mylie loves to cheer for her brother and usually watches a lot of the game!

Ethan's fourth biggest fan!




Huddle time with coach Jeff! (or dad, as we call him)



More huddles


Ethan has done amazing this year! Last year, he just loved being there but he basically ran back and forth, with the boys kicking the ball, never usually making contact with the ball himself. This year, during one of the first games, he asked if he could go to Chuck E Cheese if he made 5 goals during the game. I smiled and said sure bud go get 5 goals and I will take you there. I really didn't think he would do it! He has made maybe 1-2 goals at any of his other games and that would be a really good game! But as soon as he went out there he played like I have never seen him play. He had all the moves! He was steeling the ball from the other team and shot goal after goal until he had scored 6 goals by the end of the game! I was more than happy to give the reward! After that first game he continued to amaze us in all the rest of the games. He always scored several goals and was loving every minute of it! Way to go E!



Star soccer player! Jeff couldn't be more proud seeing that he has been playing soccer his whole life!



Here he is, showing off his uniform!

First Day of School!


Here is my cute Mylie on her first day of preschool. She is so excited to go to school with her buddies Max, Kelsie and Izee and her teacher Miss Shanna!

Here are three of her buddies!


Ethan with the friends he has in Mrs. Wilcox's class!



E and all his walking buddies! Walking carpools are the best! I love only having to have all of us ready to walk out the door with E one day a week! Thanks ladies!



Here is my big first grader!






And me and Arie now get to have some great bonding time with nobody else to share my attention! She is a little excited about that!

Summer come and gone........

Two of my little cuties looking especially cute for church one day!

We were sooooo excited to welcome Weston and Brandon's little Xander into the family! Born 8/9/10 and so so so cute!



Weston and Arzoo having a moment!



Mylie loves holding the little guy!


One day the kids decided to stack cups. This lasted for a huge part of the day! So much fun!




Wow E that's great!


While walking home from the park one day a huge storm blew in! We were soaked by the time we got home! Arie didn't even cry, she just looked a little confused!




My holding Xander again. She can't get enough of this little guy!




Welcome home! (I know it's a little out of order but oh well)



Ethan lost his first tooth this summer. He came and told me he had a loose tooth. (He has done this a lot and they never really are loose) So I said let me feel and to my amazement it really was! And not just a little loose, it was almost ready to fall out! Within minutes, Ethan was walking down the hall and then leaned over and, almost seeming grossed out by it, spit it out on the floor! Here is the note he wrote to the toothfairy all by himself!



Here he is with his new smile!




We did a little photoshoot with all the girls in their skirts and this is all I ended up with! I will have to get the rest and post them later. They were way cute!




All the kids playing dress up at Grandma and Grandpa's. I'm surprised that even the big kids got involved!
