The next chapter

This month we also celebrated Shawn's Birthday. We had the family come over earlier in the week for a birthday party. On his actual birthday we went to my parent's house for a party, both for Shawn and Kevin.

Kevin left for England the next morning.

Here he is with Auntie Em playing none other than his favorite game

"go fish."
Shawn loves to paint. This is one of the present his brothers gave him.

Happy Birthday My Little Baby!

First camping trip this year

I am a just a little behind on my blogging.

So I will start with the beginning.

About a month ago we went camping at Goblin Valley. Going down to Southern Utah is my very favorite kind of camping. One of the best things was the weather was perfect not too hot and not too cold. Last year it was rain and cold.

I cannot get over how amazing this place is. Every time we go it takes my breath away. The kids love to slide down the mountains on their bums.
I actually only had two pairs a shorts that got holes in them. That's not so bad.

Don't ask me what they we're doing,

All I know is that here are some cousins having the time of their lives.
