August

Summer was finishing up but we still wanted to enjoy the last little bit of it before school started again.  The kids always seem to keep busy--- and keep us busy.  Here is a little bit of what went on in August. 

Lincoln LOVES mangoes.  I had cut up 2 mangoes for dinner but Lincoln did not think that I had done a good enough job so he came and sucked all the peels and the pits til he got everything off. He takes after his Dad in this for sure.  

 Norah is just too cute--- even at her dentist appointment.

 We had the Wittwer Retreat and we weren't able to find babysitters so we had to bring the kids along to the meetings.  Lincoln got to go to Staheli farm for most of it and had a great time but Norah and Cade were troopers and stayed with us.  We just kept them full of snacks and let them watch a bunch of shows and they were pretty good.

 Whitney and Josh were in town for the retreat so they stayed with us and went to church with us.  We Love them--- and love the selfie!

 We finally made it out to Gunlock Reservoir for the kids to go play at the beach and swim.  They loved it all.... and of course it is as gorgeous as ever out there .

 Adam took the kids out to the County Fair. Cade loved the petting zoo, Norah hated it, and Lincoln was okay with it.  I'm sure Cade would have stayed there all day petting the sheep and goats.  Norah was terrified the entire time.

 The kids usually love to play with each other and have gotten along with each other quite well for the most part. Cade can still be the stinker he is and tries to destroy everything that comes in his path but we are all trying to sweeten him up a bit. ;)

 Norah and Mom went on a date to Newsies at Tuacahn.  It was a great show, although Norah was def. ready to go home by intermission. She was tired!! Understandably so seeing that it didnt start til 8:30.
