Pioneer Day

Ryan took this very seriously.

Garrett was really concentrating on the ride.

Our stake celebrated Pioneer day with a BBQ, crafts, and a little horse riding. Look at our cowboys.

We had our first trip to the Emergency room. Ryan and Garrett were running around the house with Ryan's nerf guns he had just got for his birthday. Garrett fell on top of his and cut the skin below his lip in half. It took a whole two stitches to fix. He was so brave at the hospital. Ryan on the other hand was a mess. He was crying for Garrett safety. Whenever the boys get hurt, whether there is blood or not they say, "I got blood!" Chris and I are reminded every night when they bath and put on jammies. They'll say, "be careful of my blood," with all seriousness. It will last for weeks!

Ryan's 4th B-day

This picture says it all. He is really into having numbers on the back of his shirt. Ryan will even wear a shirt backwards if the numbers were on the front. He couldn't have been happier! It was another fun b-day!

July 4th

Grandma's yearly 4th of July out fits. After looking at this picture Chris took of them, it appears we need to teach Clarissa to be a bit more modest.

With friends: Fallon, Matthew, Kyle, Andrew, Emery, and Marisa

Disneyland Trip - Reunion

What a rare sight. The boys are sleeping and they are scrunched next to each other in a chair pullout. So cute! Why doesn't this happen all the time or at least a little more often?

Ryan, cousin Scott, and Garrett

I couldn't leave "Baby Sa" out!

Proof we did it! We visited Mickey's house and he was even home!

This was funny! The boys were a bit nervous about the fireworks (particularly Ryan) so they figured out if they shot them with their pretend guns they wouldn't be scared anymore.

At the hotel with cousins Robbie, Brett, and Tommy.

It was a fun time at Disneyland in June. You might ask, "How could Disneyland be fun in June?" Well we were in the midst of good company for a family reunion. We stayed in the Fairfield with Chris's siblings, their families, and Maureen. The kids had so much fun (and the parents too!) Ryan keeps reminding us we will be going there for Garrett's birthday in November. Although we haven't mentioned it yet. He just might get his wish sooner! We have found it best to not tell the kids we are going somewhere till the day of because they constantly ask, "when are we going" and then when the plan doesn't materialize, watch out!
