Evelyn 4 Months Old and Party Van

 Our Evie turned 4 months last week.

Clara, my photo assistant.





My Dad's birthday was yesterday, and we surprised him with tickets to the BYU game. I was the chauffeur for the party van. I think he was totally surprised and happy with his birthday present!
Since I didn't want to take Eve to the football game, I went to dinner with Sarah while I waited to drive the birthday boy home from the game.

First Day of School, First Day of September

The Kids have been back in school for three weeks now, so it's about time I posted these!
 All four of  them before heading out. Clara was not happy that they left with out her.
The first day was a rainy one. Anna is starting 5th grade, and Matt is in 3rd.
Clara's 2nd birthday!


Anna had to rescue her balloon a few times using the grabber.
After Anna and Matt went to school, Mom, Clara and Evie went to the zoo.

Clara wanted to feed the bears some of her popcorn.

After we got home from the zoo, Clara helped Mom decorate her cake with sprinkles.
Lots, and lots of sprinkles...

Happy birthday Clara girl!

On Labor day we took a hike up to Battle Creek Falls.



It wasn't really a stroller friendly trail, so we had to turn around after it got too rocky, but we still had fun!

3 Months old, Spiders and Splashing

 Anna and Evie
 This very bold spider attached his web to our front door, but was quickly evicted.
 Baby Evelyn is three months old now!


 We visited the splash pad in Alpine, but didn't stay long because it got so crowded.

Clara loves to hug Eve.

A Quick Trip

This past week we went on a quick trip to visit Grandma and Grandpa in Montana. The first leg of the drive from home to Rexburg there was a lot of crying babies and traffic. We made it to Aunt Tara's house and got some sleep and breakfast, and then hit the road again.

As soon as we got to Grandma's house the kids and Grandpa went out to pick raspberries.

Clara loved picking the berries and putting them in her bucket.
I just loved eating the berries.


In the garden to pick peas!

Surprise Grandma picture!


Found this rhubarb in the garden.
Looking at Disney pictures.
The next day the kids wanted to go fishing.




At first they mostly caught moss.
But then Matt hooked this little guy.
Letting the fish go.

Later that night we drove up into the mountains to have a hot dog roast.






More fishing in the river this time. Anna got one!


At the Hamilton Farmer's market Saturday morning.

We drove back to Tara's and the kids loved jumping on her trampoline.
Boing!

A few thousand bugs on our bumper.
 
 
Sunday morning we loaded up one more time and went to Carissa's mission farewell talk and then headed for home.
