Summer highlights.  Visiting the aquarium with Grandpa Jim.


Swimming. Lots of it! We even managed to so swimming lessons.
Going to South Dakota.  We flew to Denver at the end of our Oregon trip and took a family trip to Mt. Rushmore. (It is about a six hour drive from Denver to Keystone) Here we are at Reptile Gardens, with a tortoise that is 129 years old!
Bear Country.
I was a little nervous about the Bear sniffing at the car door! 
We were so glad that Sean was able to meet us, as he doesn't have much vacation time.  We had so much fun!

The  extended family at Bear Country. 

Growling like Bears!
Mt. Rushmore, It was amazing!  What a work of Art and dedication of Gutzon Borglum.
The Needles, the scenery of breath taking, but Narrow.

Custard State Park.  Stopping for a Picnic and some fishing.(A favorite pastime of the Moyer's)  There were lots of animals to see and sadly did not get any good pictures of the Buffalo herd because it was dark when we got stuck in the middle of them!
They were able to feed the mini Burrows that roam the park.

Some Highlights

Hello, I know I'm still here.  Some highlights of the end of the school year and summer
Aida  finishing up soccer.  They were called the "Orange Crush."  Sean Coached them and had a great time doing it.
Sean's sister Roopali came to visit.  We had fun and she got to see Fiona perform in the her school play.

 Fiona's 9th Birthday.  She had a Super Star party with Karoake.  It was fun for all!


 We  went to Animal Kingdom  and used our free passes from doing the "Day of Service" with Disney.  We made blankets for Project Linus.  It was surprise for the girls, as we did blankets way back in February and we didn't tell them that by doing the blankets we got passes.
 They loved getting Autograph's from the different Characters
 See the Baby Gorilla in the background?  Isn't he cute.  He was about the size of Kellyn.

 Why we were in Florida, we took the kids to the Atlantic Ocean for the first time.  It was awesome.  We went to Satellite Beach. 
 Kellyn getting in the action.
 This were Sean ruined his iphone.  Oh well!
 Aida had her Dance Recital.

Kellyn, six months.........

He started sucking his thumb. It is really sweet. (I have an ultra sound showing him sucking his thumb, but this is the first he has done it out of the womb.) Hopefully, it won't be problem in few years for us! He ways 17lbs and is 25 inches. He still wants nothing to do with bottle or food. He is still not sleeping through the night. So his Momma is more then a little tired!



Kellyn sleeping with his Daddy!

Pictures........

 I thought I'd try and post a few pictures while Kellyn takes his nap.  Here are some things that we've been up too the last few months.


 Making blankets with the girls for Project Linus.  We did eight in all.  It was a fun Service project for our family.


 Seeing my good friend Becky.  It was awesome.  Just want I needed. 
 I told Sean that all I wanted to do was visit my best friend Becky from High School for my Birthday.  Sean, never one to shy away from a road trip, said lets go!  She lives about five hours away in Indiana.   It was awesome. We had a such a great time and our girls get along great.  One best Birthday presents I have ever gotten from Sean! (Disclaimer: the picture is not very good, but the only one we got!)
 The girl's had one day off of School, so we went to the Zoo.   I think this was Kellyn's second time. We have an awesome zoo!  We are excited because we are getting Flamingo's this summer!
 The Relief Society  Quarterly meeting. My calling at church is plan the quarterly meetings and also monthly activities.  We did a Super Saturday.  It was a lot of hard work, but everything turned out great.
Just want I wanted for my Birthday!  Boots.  Thanks mom, I love them. ( I'd been talking to my mom about getting boots since September, but with having a baby and all it still hadn't happened in March.)
 Finished up Basketball in February with Fiona and starting soccer in March.  Fiona with her teamate.  She is showing improvement.  Aida is also doing soccer and is very excited her Dad is coaching her.
 Dyeing Easter eggs(100 eggs this year).
 We had help this year with the Valentine kids.  We were so lucky that they came down to visit us for  the weekend.   We did lots of fun things like an Easter Egg hunts at Henry Horton, and a boat Ride at Opryland Hotel.  Fiona and Ava having a great time.
 Easter morning.  Kellyn's first Easter.  The girls were so excited for him and very worried the Easter Bunny might not have left him anything.  Never Fear, the Easter Bunny didn't forget him!

Playing the Piano

Fiona started taking Piano lessons again a couple of months ago. She is really thriving.


Once Fiona started up, Aida kept asking to do Piano, too.
