First Day of School

Today was the first day of school. Brenden is in the third grade and Hailey is in the first grade....I know I cannot believe it. They are growing way to fast!!!

Seymore Family Reunion

Every year on the weekend of the 24th of July you can count on us being at this family reunion. We always have a blast camping and it is always so great to see everyone. For those of you that could not make it you were missed. Mostly the weekend includes great food, kids on four wheelers, going to the creek,roasting marshmallows and playing games. One quick funny story. At night there were these huge beetles everywhere. We were playing cards and out of nowhere Griffin gets hit in the face with a huge beetle. We look over to Hailey cracking up with Brenden's slingshot in her hand. She thought it was pretty funny. She is so dramatic we never would have thought she would pick up a huge, hissing, ALIVE beetle and put it into the slingshot!!! On a softer note...this year we had two new additions, Stetson and Presley. It was so fun to have babies in camp!Craig and Brian were both new grandpa's and it was really sweet to watch them. We missed having the new twin babies there but maybe next year. There are a lot of pictures so just skip on over them if they just seem to keep going and going.
Brenden loving that he is BIG enough to give Kenzie a ride all by himself.

Here is Rylie, Hailey and Julia just kickin it in the hammock.

Here is Danika, Brian and Presley and Joni. I tried to get a picture with Danika and Presley but everytime I was taking pictures Brian had her.

Abby with Stetson

Rylie is our little DIVA! She wore that crown almost the whole time...I even think that uncle Brian put it on once. Too bad I missed that photo.

Makenzie just saying Cheezzzze!

Brenden just a little wet after playing in the rain and MUD ......

Here is Hailey and Rylie both missing teeth. Hailey lost a tooth while we were camping which was quite exciting. For those of you that did not know, Rylie lost hers after slipping in the snow. It totally shattered her tooth and the dentist had to take it out. At one time they were missing the same tooth!

Rocket Time

So Brenden had some money he had been saving and decided to buy a rocket building kit. Jason had just as much if not more fun with it than Brenden did. This rocket is not the one they built but the one they had to buy to get a rocket launcher. It was a lot of fun and it flew pretty high. Today they are finishing painting the one that they built and I am sure it will be the next to launch. It was getting dark out so the pictues are not that great.

Havasupia!

Ok, most of you know that about a month ago Jason and I took Brenden to Havasupia. Jason had been when he was in young mens but not us. Jason's uncle Steve and his family have gone for the past few years and invited us to come along. These pictures really do not do this place justice. For those of you who do not know Havasupia is at the bottom of the Grand Canyon. In the time we were down there we hiked about 35 miles. And I won't lie it was a tough hike down with all our stuff. I had about a 50lb pack and Jason was carrying about 80lbs. We wanted to challenge ourselves and we DID! However, we did have a horse pack our packs out!


Here is the Steve Seymore Family in front of Mooney Falls.

These are of Brenden at Navajo Falls.


This is Havasu Falls, which is the first fall you can see on the hike. It is just breathtaking!

Here is Dustin and Lindsey....acting like newlyweds!
We had a great time and want to thank Steve and Paula for showing us this place. We made some memories that will never be forgoten!

Happy Birthday Kenzie!

I can't believe she is already 2! She is growing way to fast. She is such a sweet baby but she can hold her own. She is the biggest mess on the planet. I am always saying that if she is awake she is into something. Everyone calls her mess. We were so shocked when we found out we were pregnant with her...since Rylie was only going to be 11 months old when she would arive. But what a blessing she is. I can't imagine our home without her. We love you Kenzie!

Fourth of July FUN!

We always have a blast in Heber on the fourth of July! If you have not ever been to thier fireworks show you are missing out. They really are the best. The kids had so much fun playing outside in the nice weather. Hailey had a lemonade stand and made over $25. We look forward the the tradition of the parade and a family BBQ afterwards.

Infront of Grandma and Papa Johnson's Home!

The lemonade stand with the cutest helpers....the lemeonade was store bought which they told EVERYONE! Not a great sales tactic.

Brenden and his best Buddy!
