Western Day

Avery had Western Day at school in September. They had a hoe down, ate flapjacks, and played Cowboy games! It was a fun day for her. She is such a cutie in her pink cowgirl boots and hat. She wants to wear her cowboy boots everyday!

Madison's first day of School

I cannot believe that Madison started Kindergarten this year! It makes me so sad to see her grow up so fast. She is loving school and has made some great friends! She has the best teachers and has not complained about going to school one day. She is becoming quite the little artist. She is so creative and articulate. She loves to draw, sing, and play at school.

Avery's First day of School

Avery started her 2nd year of preschool this year. She is going to Challenger School. It has been fun for her to have a friend from the neighborhood who goes there as well.

End of Summer fun

The girls finished up summer taking swim lessons and Gymnastics. Madison became an expert diver and Avery became an expert swimmer! They both became so comfortable in the water. No more floaties. They were little fish all summer. I think we swam every single day. It is so nice to have a neighborhood pool and a neighbor with a pool! They also loved taking gymnastics. They started right when we moved here and they are still taking lessons. They both love gymnastics! It is hard to believe how fast the summer went by. We all had a great summer!

Mexico

Adam and I went to Play Del Carmen with our good friends Evin and Micah. We had a great time! It was Adams birthday while we were there so it was fun to celebrate. We had a blast just hanging out at the pool. The last day we went on a snorkeling/sail. It was all day and I mean ALL day. Adam parasailed and went in a cage with a poor shark who had no room to move (anything to make money). Grandma Westover came to our house and stayed with the girls. They loved spending those days with her.

Averys Birthday and 4th of July

We spent the 4th of July in Utah at the Cabin. We had such a fun time. We rode 4-wheelers, fished, hiked, celebrated Avery's Birthday, and went to the crazy firework show in Evanston. We were there for 7 days and had a blast! Here are a few pictures to sum it all up!

Since Avery was born on July 6th, her birthday kindda gets overlooked. We have been at the cabin every single year for her birthday! We got home the day before her real birthday. We had a pizza/movie party for her. Avery wanted barbie's and star wars stuff. She also wanted a star wars cake. The girls are so into star wars!

The craziness begins at the parking lot in Evanston. I have never seen anything like this before. There are thousands of fireworks going off at the same time.

Me and the girls!

Backyard Fishing

Tonight Adam and the girls went fishing in the pond behind our house. They got lucky and caught a couple small mouth bass and some blue gill. The girls love fishing! How lucky are we to be able to throw our poles in over the fence!
