Another Summer Sport

This summer Alyssa participated in many activities. This was her first year playing soccer. I thought she would have enjoyed it more than she did, but it wore her out running up and down the field. But she did a great job.

This is Alyssa being the goalie. She decided to stand up from doing summersalts so I could take her picture. She is also doing gymnastics this summer too, and she enjoys it much more than soccer.

Camping in the Rain!!!

For Fathers Day weekend we went camping with my parents up Huntington Canyon. Well we picked a pretty rainy weekend to go. Between rainstorms we went on 4wheeler rides and walks down to the lake. The girls has a blast and didn't want to go home, even though we spent most of the time inside watching movies and playing games. It was a great time to find out that our trailor roof leaks! (yuck)

YUCK a worm!

The girls loved walking around finding worms that surfaced after the rain.

Our Little Ball Player!

One of Alyssa's activities during the summer is playing Peewee Baseball (tball). She can actually hit the ball pretty good when it is pitched to her. She gets soo mad when she can't hit off a pitch and has to use the T. Last week was her last game for the season. Next year Kalley will be able to play too!

Dance Baby Dance!!!

This was Alyssa's first year in dance. June 6th was her very first dance recital! She did great!! She had so much fun learning all of her dances that she taught Kalley some of her new dance moves. They are both sooo cute putting on a dance performance for us almost daily.

Lazy Summer Days!!

I know it has been a long time since I posted anything but this summer has been crazy so far. This is the girls playing in the field out at my parents house. My dad didn't have any cows to graze so the grass in the field was getting pretty long. The girls sure had fun walking through it and laying down hiding from papa in it.

My Baby is Growing Up!

Today was Alyssa's last day being in preschool. Her class had a cute litte program. All the kids memorized a poem. Alyssa was the first one up, her poem was about a giraffe as you can tell by the picture she is holding up. She said it perfectly she did such a good job. I can't believe how big she is getting. It seems just like yesterday that she was my tiny baby, now she is going to be in kindergarten.

This is the girls before we went to the program. Of course Kalley had to get all dressed up too. After I got them all ready, I was in my room getting ready and I thought Kalley was with Brandon. Well she wasn't, and I couldn't hear her anywhere, so of course she was getting into trouble. Well she was downstairs on the couch with a pen drawing circles on her legs. She was just in trouble for writing on herself like two days ago so I had to give her the lecture again. I wonder how many times kids need to be told something before it sinks in.

Anyway don't the girls look so cute. I know you can't see their hair bows so great in this picture, but they are way super cute! My friend Melissa has a website where she sells these cute bows, it is www.snugglebugbowtique.com. So if anyone wants to check it out, you can see all of her way cute creations. I am so lucky she is my friend, I just take a dress over to her and tell her I need a bow to match. She always does such a great job making my girls look so cute!! So I just want her to know how much I appreciate her. (She babysits for me when I am in a jam also)

What is your two year old doing when she is being too quiet?

Well I know what you are probably thinking. That I am going to tell you some horror story of how Kalley was playing in the bathroom or climbing on top of the cupboards getting into trouble. Not that she hasn't done those things or does those things on a regular basis, but this is a cute story of her being too quiet. Last Saturday I was at work and Brandon was home watching the girls. He said they were all watching TV and Kalley quietly dissapeared, when he realized she was missing and things were too quiet, he went to see what she was into. The door to her bedroom was closed which is not a good sign! He walked in and this is what he found. Kalley was just sitting in the middle of the floor with her favorite princess blanket over her head. She was just sitting there doing nothing. When he asked her what she was doing she replied with her new favorite quote "Let me be!". So Brandon went back to his TV show.

After about five minutes or so he decided to se if she was still being good. This time he found her bundled up in her closet. She had made herself a little bed in the closet. She was in there reading herself books. I think she was trying to tell Brandon something. I think she was trying to put herself down for a nap. I bet if he would have left her alone for awhile she would have fallen asleep in the closet.
