First Day of Kindergarten

Mckenna started Kindergarten this year. She was so excited! (So, funny story... Mckenna went to the dentist the morning of her first day of school. When it was time for school, her cheek was still numb. So all of our pictures of her on the actual first day of school are a little funny. So, we took some more pictures on the second day of school)
That backpack looks huge on her!
You can see her numb cheek pretty well in this one.

We made some fruit leather and it was done just in time for her after school snack.
These pictures were actually taken on the second day of school.
... I left a piece of my heart at the kindergarten building...
Sure love this girl!

Thumb Sucker

We took Brielle to the dentist and he suggested that we stop the thumb sucking as soon as possible... Brielle isn't too happy about it. So, we told Brielle we got her a new special nail polish...
So far, it's working and she actually requests to have it put on. :)

Memorial Day

We went to the cabin for Memorial Day. It's always fun to go up there. The girls have really gotten into 4 wheeling this year. They especially like going up and down hills. It's like their own personal roller coaster. It's always fun to go up to the cabin to spend time with family.


Great Grandma Collins (Arlene) was able to come too.  That's who Evelyn was named after. It was nice for them to finally meet eachother.
We love our grandparents!!

Random happenings

I guess tummy time wore this girl out!
Lately, Mckenna and Brielle have been playing "restaurant". They are pretty good at taking orders and delivering food
Evelyn can't decide if she is a thumb sucker or a pacifier girl. Sometimes she even sticks her thumb inside her pacifier.

Meridian Temple Groundbreaking

We were so blessed and honored to be invited to the Meridian Temple Groundbreaking Ceremony. It was a pretty neat experience. We had to wake the girls up early to get there, so they watched a movie in the car on the way there.

Waiting for it to start. It was pretty hot!
We all got to dig a hole for the temple. It was so neat. I'm grateful that we were invited to go.

Tuckered Out

The Fam

Their is no such thing as a weekend in Idaho Falls without going to the cabin. We love it up there.

Grandpa read books to the kids in the Bobcat Room.
Watching "Frozen" on the big screen
Great Grandpa Smith even joined us... and brought plenty of treats along :)
These girls love their cousins!
