Summer is here!

We are so happy that summer is here!
Brett & Teresa visited from Phoenix last week and Taylor, Emily and Isaac, and had so much fun!
We spent the whole week doing fun outings with the kids. We all went to the zoo one day. The kids rode the merry go round and loved seeing all the animals.

Mary and Emily are so cute together. They like playing princess, wearing dress ups, playing house and riding bikes. They are going to be good friends forever!


One day we went to Utah County to visit Great grandpa Hawkins. This picture was an attempt to get all the kids around grandpa for a quick photo. This was the best we could get. The kids had fun playing on the swing, running around the yard, and hearing stories told by grandpa.
We love you grandpa!


Then we visited Great Grandma Shields. She made a delicious lunch for all the kids. Then some other cousins came over to play. We all had so much fun in Provo.


Spencer and Isaac were adorable together. Both of them are fat and huge, and neither of them are walking yet! They crawled around in the dirt, mud, grass and cement all week scraping their chubby little knees. Isaac looks like a vampire next to Spencer, he is so brown. They are both sweet, happy babies!






Taylor and Jeffrey had a blast playing together all week! They spent their time riding skateboards, jumping on the tramp, playing games, riding bikes and torturing their sisters.
They were lucky enough to sleep in Uncle Colton's big, cozy bed.



On Saturday morning Taylor had his last soccer game. He had a great season, and is making a lot of improvement. Jeffrey came with us to the game to cheer Taylor on.









Taylor was thrilled that he got a trophy from his coach.
He got the award for having the longest legs and being the fastest runner on the team! Way to go Taylor!
He is getting so grown up, he is done with Kindergarten and ready to go to 1st grade!

Your kids are awesome! I had so much fun with them yesterday. Taylor kept asking me "Are you my aunt?" haha. Are they my second cousins? Anyway, I have some cute pictures of them, let me know your email address and I'll send them to you.

What fun to have cousins the same age! Jackson has been taking 5=6 steps today many times, I wonder if he will catch up and be able to play with Issac! Call us when you get to Idaho if you need help, or need a place to stop by :)
