July 4th

So again, I am behind on blogging and am playing catch up. Apparently we did a very poor job of photographing our Fourth of July activities...so here's a picture that Max took of himself (and his gum).  

Neil's parents actually came into town for the Fourth and we pulled a fast one and surprised Neil and Max.  They took a taxi to Costco and I sent Neil and Max there to pick up a few things. Max was a little shocked for a while and kept saying "I can't believe you're here!"  The weekend's activities included going to see Transformers, bowling, brunch buffet at a new casino, watching fireworks from our house and Star Wars episodes IV, V and VI.  We had a great time, thanks Grandma and Grandpa Woolf!  

Up Next: Family reunion, Utah and San Antonio

June Utah Trip

I'm still behind on posting, but figured I needed to get these up before we leave for our next trip to Utah tomorrow!  A few weeks ago, Neil went to Scout Camp for a week and so I took the kids to Utah (with the much appreciated help of Patrice and Taryn!).  We had a great time...here are our best pics!  

Swimming with cousins

Visiting Nick, Sarah and Molly

Visiting April (my sister in law and friend!)

Me and Ellie Kayaking...Payton didn't enjoy it so much!

Prayer Time!

The girls are very good at prayer time now.  They are very cute to watch...which means I usually have my eyes open!  Max also does a great job saying the prayer, thinking about who is visiting or what is happening and also often thanks Heavenly Father for our bodies, muscles and POWER!
