Quick catch up.

Is it just me, or is this summer flying by faster than ever?

Here is a quick review of what we have been up to.

Hoogle Zoo to see all the animals.


With G'ma and G'pa Noyes - even better!


Avery LOVES her G'pa!


We got to see the Angel Moroni being placed on top of the new Brigham City Temple (my home town.) It was a very windy day, as you can see, but I am glad we were there to see it!


Avery playing in the water at grandma and grandpa's house.


She has turned into a little fish - LOVING the water these days!


And how about a little ice cream cone, too!


Avery's first trip to Lagoon! We went with my family - my brother and his family were visiting from Oregon. Avery loved meeting her cousins that she had never met before.

She loved all the rides...


Especially this one! She screamed when it was over and had to ride it about 5 times in a row before she would calmly walk away.


We have been enjoying the fruit of our labors from the little garden I planted this year. (Lots of labor I might add - who knew a garden required so much work. Why didn't anyone warn me? Sheesh!)


And how about spending way too much of my time cleaning up after this little one. Messes in every room she graces. Her favorite mess to date... emptying all of her clothes from her drawers and scattering them all over the house...


Fun!


And last - more sprinklers. On a daily basis Avery brings me her swimsuit and BEGS (aka - whines) to put it on so we can go outside and run through the sprinklers. How can I say no when she clearly loves it so much?


I am to the point this summer where all I want to do... is stay home! We have had so much fun being out and about, but, I am exhausted. Too bad there aren't any lazy, relaxing weekends in the forecast... I guess we will just have to keep having fun. Darn.
