HoGLe ZoO W/CoUsInS!

We had a great time at the zoo with our cousins! It was a great day but by the end...it was sweating hot. They have a new baby Elephant, 3 new baby male tiger cubs, new baby Giraffe, and new baby groundhogs! So they have lots of firsts! We could not see the baby elephant since it was only 3 weeks old, but if you go back in a couple of weeks, you might be able to see her. Thanks for a great and awesome day before kindergarten actually starts! Here are some pictures to share from our such FuN DaY!

Uncle Time!

Before the Temple Dedication, My sister and her hubby came up for a little bit before they had to leave and my kids love to play with Uncle Graeme and Graeme thinks he is one of the kids and loves to play with them. Well here are a few Pict. oF them playing! They are so fun!

Temple Pictures

The day of the Oquirrah Temple Dedication, since Tony was up Hunting, I decided to take my little ones up to the Bntfl. Temple to take some pictures. I thought it would be a great Sunday Morn. Act. with the kids. Yes it was a rainy day, but we managed not to get too wet! Although, Jaci was being a little peel and did not want to get her picture taken. What can I do.



Here is Blake! He was being very cooperative and a GREAT BIG Brother!




Here is a Picture of Marissa, She also was being cooperative at times! Such a cute girl!


Here is a Kids family Picture. As you can tell, Jaci is my peel girl, and did not want to be miss smiley!


This is one of my favorite Pict. Isn't Blake being a GREAT BIG brother! They are so dang cute!

Pine View

A couple Of weeks ago our ward had a Ward Camp put up at Pine View Res. It was so much fun! We had a great attendance and the Dutch Oven food was fantastic and all the kids had so much fun with the fun crafts! (even some of the adults got into the crafts!). It was a much needed little over nighter vacation. We played in the water. Went out on the Boats and tony even tried to Water Ski but could not get up! his ankle and foot were hurting him too bad! Good try babe! It was very fun! Hopefully next year the ward will do it again! Thanks to our ward!
Here are some random pictures!

Potty Training 101:

My Sweet, little Marissa is now potty trained! Can we all say YAAAAAAAA!! Just one more to go! She has been trained for a couple of weeks now! It's been great. Once she figured it out, she has had 1-2 accidents, but that is all. She still is having a hard time with #2, but she's coming along. She is even dry in the morning and has never peed on my floor or in her bed at night! She can hold it for so long too! Unlike Blake, who has a little bladder and says when he has to go....he has to go! I am just so glad that she is not in diapers anymore. It will cut my diaper intake by 1/2 hopefully. Probably the end of this year or first of next year I will think about potty training Jaci. Hopefully she should be easy too! She likes to do whatever Marissa does! She's my funny girl! After she went potty in the toilet a couple of times really good, I then took her to the store and told her she could pick out a toy that she wanted and then we got her some fun new underpants! (Tinkerbell)! She loves to wear them now and has fun with them!! YA Marissa! She is also doing quite well. She is eating a little better and growing too! Her pants just don't stay on her now that she is in under ware. She has to roll the tops of her pants down to make them stay!
YA MARISSA!!!! She's not my little petite baby girl anymore. She's growing up!
