Little angels

My dear friend has picked up the hobby of photography and offered to take some pictures of the kids. Oquirrh Lake is so perfect for just that. The lake reminds me of the beach, I love it. I thought the pictures turned out so good, I love how she caught them just being kids. Here are some of my favorites:

Madison's in Kindergarten!

Madison was so ready and excited for her turn to be in Kindergarten. I was excited for her as well. It is so fun to see your children grow and face their new challenges. Waiting for the bus with big brother.
She was so excited to ride the bus. I let her ride with McKay, then we met her at the school.
Getting off the bus. McKay was so sweet and helpful.

Cowabunga Bay

For the last year Madison and McKay have been earning pennies to put in jars. They earn pennies for kindness and good deeds(Thanks Melanie). Cowabunga Bay is what they were earning the pennies for, a water park that they have been wanting to try out. They finally reached their goal, so off we went for one last summer hurrah before school starts. It was like Christmas morning when we arrived. McKay, " This is the best day of my life!"
You have to climb many stairs to get to all the slides. The kids really wore themselves out.
McKay taking a break in the sun.
I love how colorful and fun the park looks.
The huge yellow bucket fills every half hour and then dumps on the kids. It make the biggest splash.
My sweet little Trent.

I have always wanted.....

a little girl with an A-Line Bob! I think it is so precious on girls. Chris of course wanted Madison's hair to be long. So we let it be long for a couple years and in the past 6 months I have been trying to get Madison to cut it. Well, to my surprise she asked for her hair to be cut while we were at Fantastic Sams waiting for McKay to get his cut. "Really? You want it short? Like Brooklyn's?", I said. She really did, so off her hair came! I love it and she does too! Best 10 bucks I've ever spent!
