MORGAN AND DADDY'S BIRTHDAY

We enjoyed Morgan's first birthday at her grandma's house in August.

Logan is becoming mobile too.

This year we celebrated Cory's birthday with Grandma and Grandpa Flake. We had a green cake with green frosting and green candles. Laur'l said it had to be that way because green was her Daddy's favorite color.

Never a Dull Moment

At the end of summer the kids got to see "Bugga" at the rig in Willcox. Laur'l is doing great this year. She can do everything because she is a second grader. She started soccer this week and is loving every minute of it. Her games start next Wednesday and will be every Wednesday until the end of the season.

Logan is a very happy baby except when his gums are bothering him. He enjoys rolling over and over everywhere. It's looking like his favorite color is green. Ironically that is his daddy's favorite color.

I am glad they all love each other and get along for the most part. The girls and I have a lot of fun doing nail art and playing outside. It's great to have a yard to play in. Laur'l is getting so independant with making sandwiches, taking showers, and helping her little sister.

Cory has will be starting the CPA exam after September 15th. We put 30,000 miles on our Ford Focus is 1 year of work. Between school and kids life stays pretty busy.

How Much Longer 'Til School Starts?

Logan Likes to lay on the floor and playing with his toys and trying to roll over. Yesterday the girls went swimming in their little pool and Logan thought that was funny enough to laugh at.
Mommy thought the girls needed some exercise so they would be tired and quiet foir the rest of the day. They raced around the trailer a few times and then they went swimming for an hour. And now, they are being nice and quiet watching their shows.

Here's a cute picture of the three of them. Not much more going on with us. We are looking forward to school starting on August 12th. Laur'l will be in the second grade and she is very excited. I think Adelle will be a little lonely and bored once Laur'l is gone at school. I think once Logan gets mobile the boredom will disappear.

Yikes! Half way through July already!

As a child the summers use to drag. As a parent they are flying by. We have had a really mild summer as far as busy goes. Adelle is being her two-year-old self. Her alias' include: My little tornado and Pirhanna. From dumping out all my hairspray to nailpolish on the kitchen floor under the table I am prowd to say I still have my sanity. Laur'l is growing up a lot. She has been a tremendous help and her imagination has increased significantly. She imagined she was cleaning the bathroom mirror with my airisal hairspray. If you can't tell we are having issues with the hairspray.

Cory has begun the necessary steps towards taking the CPA exam. We are very excited to be getting that done. Me, I enjoy my "little man". Most of the time he's a happy little guy. He smiles very big and love to talk. He is also starting to laugh. I am the compassionate service leader in our ward and enjoy that calling. Hope all is well and everyone is staying cool.

Fun in the Sun

This is our Saturday afternoon.

This is how Adelle has fun.

Logan has been smiling.

Our family has been having a nice summer. Laur'l has played with friends and cousins and enjoys every minute of it. Adelle is enjoying having her sister home to play with. I have been trying to have fun and avoid ending up in the insane asylum by the end of summer. Cory is busy at work and learning a lot.

It's been a while

We have been busy with life and summer. Laur'l is enjoying the break and playing with friends. Adelle is enjoying having her sister home. Logan is doing great. He only gets up once in the night now.

This was Laur'l's end of the year concert.

Enjoying the Weather

We are enjoying the warm weather, Logan, and tax season being over. We are looking forward to blessing Logan and seeing everyone.
