Goodies and Handsome

These are things Samara is always saying. If I watch the weather, she says, "Goodies, sunny day!" or "Goodies, rainy day!" Also when we call that it's time for dinner, she'll run to the table shouting, "Goodies, dinner time!" It's just great!

Also, every day when I get her dressed she says, "Oh, I'm so handsome!" It's hard to know what to say to that because she obviously knows that we call the boys handsome when they get dressed, so we don't want to say, "No, Samara you're not handsome." So we just tell her she's handsome and pretty. She does think that her hair is pretty and that shoes are pretty, but getting dressed is handsome.

Summer Vacation Part 4 - Beach time

Part of my family reunion was spent at the beach at Pineview Reservoir.
Hy caught a guppy.


And a snake (gasp).

Summer Vacation Part 3 - Grandpa's Cabin

We spent a week at Brad's Grandpa's Cabin in Star Valley, WY.

Brad went golfing almost every day. (Don't you love the black socks with shorts? Who dresses this guy?)


We dusted off the ATV and took it out several times. These pics are all from the same day though.


And I spent the week putting a 1000 piece puzzle together and staying inside like a good little prego.

Summer Vacation Part 2-Who knew bowling could be so dangerous?

It's a family tradition to go BYU bowling whenever the parents are in Utah and this year was no exception. Asher had bowled maybe 4 frames. We had a ramp and bumpers for them, but the adults still assisted in the process. It was Asher's turn. He picked up his ball and started walking it over to me by the ramp. He tripped, dropped the ball and landed with his chin against the ball. Lots of blood and 4 stitches later, he doesn't like bowling anymore. We'll give it a few months and take him again. Thank heavens for forgetting - especially about all the stuff that happens to you when you're 3.
