July 2011 Part 2 (lots of pictures)

In the middle of July we had a Pearson family get together.  We went to Cherry Hill.  The kids had such a good time hanging out with one another and we had a great time visiting with Jace's family.  Here are a few pictures from the weekend.

The next weekend we came down and did Jace's birthday present at the i-fly and flowrider in Ogden, Utah.  Here are some Pictures of Rachel and Jace enjoying the activities. 

Then we went and visited our new niece Lucy in the hospital.  We also stayed with Max and Ty Friday night so Mom could have one more night in the hospital.  Thanks Jake and Angie for giving us the opportunity to stay with your boys.  Tate loves his cousins.

Here is precious little Lucy.  We are so glad she has joined the family.

The next day we headed to Hogle Zoo.  I have been wanting to take Tate for over a year.  We had so much fun.  A neat feature of the park is the robotic dinosours they had there.  We tried to get a picture of Tate in front of one but he was terrified of them.  They roared and everything.  In fact one time he actually screamed grabbed my hand and started running.  Here are some pictures from our day.

Then at the end of the month our little man Grant turned 1.  He is getting so big and he is so much fun to have in our family.  He loves to crawl and climbing on everything.  No interest in walking yet.  He loves to eat, which is so different from his big brother.  He loves playing with his big brother even if his brother doesn't always like it.  He makes me smile all the time.  We love you Grant you bring a special spirit to our family.  Here are some fun pictures from the little party we had for him.

What a great month it was.  August  will also have  a lot of fun activities.  I am so sad to summer coming to a close.  I guess we will just have to make the best of it!

July 2011 Part 1

July started off with a bang.  We had the Williams Family Reunion July 4th weekend.  Jace was at scout camp so it was just the boys and me.  We started off the weekend by going to Lagoon.  The boys and I had a blast spending time together and with family.  Here are a few pictures from the day!

The next day we went for a hike up Adam's canyon.  I decided I wanted to take the boys since I am not able to spend as much time with them as I would like.  Here we are after finishing the hot part.  I packed Grant like that the whole way in and out.  Tate walked the whole way, except for the very end.  I was so proud of him.  My sisters and family helped us out a lot to get us up to the waterfall it was a really good tiring day.

Here we are finally making it to the Waterfall!

We then had the Fourth of July on the monday after the reunion.  HEre we are lighting our fireworks.  Tate and Grant loved it.

June 2011

June was fairly quite the biggest even was at the end of the month with the Searle Reunion.  Here are some fun picture from the beginning of the month.

I was getting ready to take the boys somewhere one day and this is how I found Tate.  He tells me all the time he is big enough to drive, whenever I tell him he is too small.

We stopped by a Fire Station open house later that day.  Tate got to sit in the fire truck.  He thought it was really cool.

Tate loves to help his dad with the tractor.  Jace had just taken a load and the next thing I knew Tate had buckled himself into the tractor ready to drive.  This kid make me laugh.

We can't forget about Grant.  He is all boy just like his brother.  He loves to play outside and he loves to play in the dirt.

Later that night Tate did get to help drive the tractor.  

At the end of June we went to Burley for the annual Searle Family reunion.  Just about everyone was there except for a few who were out of state/country or were working that weekend.  We had so much fun visiting and playing games.  It was a great weekend to be with family.  I love all my family so much.

This is little Makelle, Keri's new daughter.  She is so cute!

Playing Marbles.  This was a big hit for the boys.

This was lawn fooseball.  Everyone had a good time playing, there was one incident of the ball going into someone's face but she bounced back and got right back in the game.  A really tough girl.

June was a great month.  It started to warm up and we were able to spend time with some great family and friends!
