Anyone still there?

I thought I'd copy my big sister, Denise, and update my lonely,old blog and clean up my phone pictures at the same time.  I do want my kids to look back on our life through this blog!!  (By the way, does anyone use a camera anymore?  I don't think I've used ours in over a year!) Anyway, here is what we've been up to since July....Sorry the pictures are so big and weird looking.  I tried a new thing: Blogging from my phone!

I purposely did not sign up for any camps or outings at all last summer.  I wanted to wake up each day and plan it in our pjs.  So we spent a lot if our time at the pool.  I love this picture!  He really loves his baby sister:

We went to a kids event at the BG Library one afternoon:

Roy had the "time of his life" when he drive a motorcycle from Alaska to Seattle with his dad and some of his friends.  I was a little noivous!!!

We visited cousins and bowled a few games:

We went to the beach and had a blast:

We tossed a sad jellyfish out to sea one night:

I discovered another confirmation that my son loves the word "poop":

We started school:(. I have to say that I was sad about it starting.  I truly enjoyed having them home this summer.

We had a cookie and coke stand for Samaritan's Purse to help with the Colorado "Fluding":

We went to Tennessee with our Reber family one weekend and visited Dollywood.  By the way, I LOVE Dollywood.  Great place...very family oriented and great park food!!:

We celebrated a sweet three year old while we were in TN with a requested Ariel birthday:

We spent a weekend in Boone, riding 4wheelers, picking apples and just having fun:

We celebrated a special six year old, Ninja Turtle style:

Our last season visit to Carowinds was on his birthday.  It was cold!!!:

We did a Star Wars theme for Halloween.  We had a Han Solo, Princess Leia, a Padme Amadala and a scary Darth Vader trying to photo bomb the picture:

Roy and Caroline went in their first daddy/daughter campout with their Y-Guide tribe:

Phew!  This gets me to November.  I will post the rest later.  I'm almost caught up!  I have to say I spend most of my day in my suburban these days.  I'm just entering the busy years, too:(.
