August 2014 catchup...

Besides Jadyn's Baptism, Hogle Zoo, Bear World and the start of the school year.
This is what else happened in August. :)

The Cache County Fair with my girls...





Why is fair food so delicious?
All that grease I guess...
and we sure had our fair share of it!





We missed Shane at the fair, he was off in Samoa working on the Temple...


(and playing some...)



Then later in the month he was off in Villa Hermosa Mexico.



Since he was gone Lydia got to have a fun "sleepover" with Grandma Kathie and Poppa Tony while the other 4 sisters and I had our annual "girls weekend" with Kim and Kaylee, Deon and Lisa.

Such a fun weekend of shopping, eating good food, shopping some more, staying up late and doing it again the next day.
 
 


SUCH a fun tradition!

Kenna had an AMAZING time at a week long Pickleville Playhouse camp.
 Such a cute performance at the end.
Kenna even sang a solo.
And not going to lie but somewhere along the way I didn't even realize she liked to sing or could sing...
and she can sing!
What can't our Kenna do????




Lydia, learned to ride a bike without training wheels.
And yes she is too little for that.
Did her parents teach her?
No.
Lisa did!  Full credit goes to her!!
We tried but she wanted Lisa. hahaha
Then one day she said, "watch this mom" and she just took off straight down the driveway.
I panicked a little, and she called back, "I'm fine mom!!"
Silly little determined thing is all over the neighborhood now!



There was the ward camp out (our family's only camping experience of the year.)
Fun to be with good friends, only about 5 families stayed over.

We decided next summer we are going to actually CAMP on our own somewhere... for at least one night... and Tayler says it CAN'T be the ward camp out OR the backyard!
That will be BIG for us. :)



We had our annual "back-to-school" fashion show.
 

With a little family stunting thrown in...


We visited Poppa's office and the girls got a little "aborigine lesson".


We visited Tayler at the snow shack...
LOTS!





There were several rainy days...
Perfect for dancing in the rain with friends.


Shane took the girls to the Aquatics Center...
where Jadyn jumped off the high dive over and over.


There was the splash pad...



Rope swinging...


A visit to our favorite Dentist. :)
Uncle Jeff.



Quality time with cousins... haha


and sister time...


We registered for school.
Kenna was SUPER excited about having a locker!



I still can't believe she is in middle school...


There was the first football game of the year.
That freezing cold wet one!
It was a "throwback game" so they wore the "old uniforms."



Brrrr it was a cold night!




The girls helped me bottle...
and bottle...
and bottle.
Thanks to my daddy for the beans.

We bottled 48 quarts of beans...
plus all those peaches I mentioned a few posts back.
That's enough for me for one year!!


August treated us well...
And I say it every year,
but summer flew by WAY too fast for me!!
