Cutie Pie

I put rubber bands in her hair for the first time today. 
A little silly, so later I put it into one instead of pig tails. 
She's still so super stinkin cute!
I've been meaning to post this for awhile. This pile of goodies has made 
it all the way from Germany! This picture doesn't do the clothes justice. 
Thanks Drea & Hannah! They are all so cute I almost look forward
 to getting her dressed every day.

Camp Nauvoo

We went camping For the first time as a family of 5! Actually, we've only been camping one other time since Jared & I were married. It was a ward camp out up in Placerville. Lots of fun with good company. There were around 25 families (please correct me if I'm wrong) and TONS of babies. Charly only woke up a couple times, I heard a few others do the same. It was said that this campground is the perfect "mother" campground. It's all nice grass with NO dirt & some decent bathrooms! We will definitely come here again. 
Biggest moth I've ever seen (alive). It hung out with Elvis for quite awhile. 
The boys playing with their "friend" Charlie. 
The boys going rafting. I wasn't able to get a picture of Grant, my batteries went dead:( 
Travis took kids for a couple hours up & down the stream. Lots of patience, Thank You!

Doesn't this kid look like his Dad in so many ways??

Me & my big fat mouth

When talking about cameras I posted a comment on a friend's post a couple days ago about how I wished our super nice camera would break (it's really nice, I'm just ungrateful) so we could buy a new, smaller one. So when I go to get the camera this morning, & notice that one of my adorable children had broken the lens, I immediately regretted not knocking on wood. With a family reunion coming, but no income coming, what's a girl to do?

These are pics that Grant took by himself. 
I want to get the boys a camera for Christmas. 
There are such things as cheap digital cameras right?

Heavy Heavy Hangs over my poor head, ...Give me my treats! 




Sorry Nate, the granola is for me!



Below is my favorite picture of the night!
