Landon

Landon is 7 months now. Wow where does the time go. Holy cow. This kid is so stinkin' cute. He has learned how to sit up, scoot around, pull hair, get the girls (haha). He is so much fun. We absolutely love having him in our family. I took these pictures one morning when the sun was shining through our front window. So beautiful.

Brooke

Sometimes that little sweetheart just comes right out of her. It's nice to know that she really does love her brother. Even though it is really hard to have two kids it sure makes it worth it with these melt your heart moments.
Anything that has a handle turns into a purse for this little girl. She kept saying "Bye mommy".

She is just at that age where she copies everything that we do. It was awfully quite when I found her. She had both of Justin's socks and shoes on.
King of the hill! What a great way to watch a movie.
This is Brooke's first painting. She had so much fun getting all the paint on her hands. She is so proud of her artwork. Everyday she points to it and says "picture cute".
Yep, can you see all those teeth! She has six of them coming in at the same time.
We canned peaches last month and had a few left over. I tried to give her a piece that was sliced with no skin on it, but oh no she had to have the whole thing!

Grandma's House

Last month we had a wedding of a friend of the family so Steven and his family came to St. George. My Grandparents made all of us dinner one night. It was a lot of fun. The kids had a blast exploring the back yard and picking veggies out of her garden (to her surprise haha oops) All the kids had a so much fun jumping on Papa's belly and wrestling with Steven. It was good to see everyone.

Hat Day

Landon loved this ball. He would just sit there and string it through his gums.

Yep she knows how to give you that sly look already!
What a stud. We love having Landon as a part of our family. He is always such happy kid. We are so blessed for the wonderful kids we have.
Brooke had to wear her hat since Landon was wearing his. Justin's mom gave him this outfit. It is so stinkin cute!

The Temple

The Temple grounds are so beautiful here. Everytime we go for a walk we love looking at all the flowers. It hasn't been as hot this year and we have had more rain that usual so the plants have done alot better this year.

Orchard


There is a church orchard about 15 minutes from St. George. In church they announced that anyone could go and pick the fruit for three days because it was ripening to fast and it wouldn't be as good for canning. So Justin and I decided to take advantage of the opportunity. The limit was 100 pounds per family. So we got five grocery sacks full. When we brought it home we didn't realize how much that really was. Our kitchen was covered in apricots everywhere. With only half of our apricots we were able to make 49 jars of apricot pineapple jam! The rest was made into fruit leather or dried. We had alot of fun and enjoyed learning some new skills.
