Carmen and Sara were the cutest little friends. They were together almost ALL the time.



Kaitlin singing at the 4th of July Breakfast in Utah. She is singing a song from High School
Musical.


Carmen is singing the same song. "Feels so right, to be here with you, Oh oh. And now looking in your eyes, I feel the start of something new."


The waterfall we all hiked to in Aspen Grove (past Sundance). You can see a person in the right bottom corner (to give perspective).


Our little family on the hike. Carmen was a trooper and hiked most of the way (2 miles both ways). However, we were a little behind because of this. :)


Our whole reunion group. We all made it to the falls, even the little ones (who were helped by the teenagers quite a lot--yay for teenagers). Grandma and Grandpa weren't able to come, however, due to Grandma having eye surgery and not supposed to do aerobic exercise.

We had so much fun it was hard coming home. We also saw the Gilmore family and had such a good time with them. I forgot my camera though.

Summer Vacation/Family Reunion

We just got back from our summer vacation. I'll post pictures later. We had a grand time seeing friends and family in Utah. I have to say one thing Kaitlin did was put ice cubes on a straw and said, "Look, Mommie, an Ice Kabob!" I laughed and thought it was so cute. Kaitlin was a gem most of the time and a little lady and everyone commented on it. Carmen and her cousin Sara were like two peas in a pod. Carmen isn't used to having a little girl to play with so much and enjoyed it immensely.

Beautiful Girls

My girls were cuddling and hugging each other so sweetly thing morning that I had to take pictures. They pulled their pillows and blankets on the floor and were being so cute! Kaitlin is kissing Carmen here.

Smiles and hugs and cuddles all around. Aren't they just precious and adorable. Okay, okay, I am a biased mom.



Kaitlin is my poser. I was checking out something on my camera because Carmen got a hold of it and changed settings. Kaitlin "posed" for my checking it out. She's so beautiful.

I have been so busy lately but I cannot complete tell you why. I helped a friend with a garage sale and did some food canning at the cannery but that's about it that I can remember.

Wicked

Archie and I saw "Wicked" this week. It was totally amazing. I loved it and wanted to see it again. It was funny and poignant and everything.

Updates in tweeter style.

Carmen and I have been doing puzzles today (after I worked out to High School Musical music and after I mowed the front lawn). It's fun. She's so good at them.

Kaitlin was reading the book, "A Boy, A Frog and A Dog". It is a story without words (It is an adorable book and is understandable without words). It is cute the stories Carmen and Kaitlin make up to the pictures. Yesterday, when the end came, Kaitlin added the phrase, "and it doesn't get any better than that." I laughed. It was a cute ending to the book's pictures.
