Ethan and the Tower

Ethan loves to knock things over, especially blocks. Spencer would put him in the kitchen and then run back to the living room to see how tall he could build a tower before Ethan crawled in and knocked it over. It was pretty funny to watch.

Funny and Not So Funny

The funny: Nathan and Lisa's bellies are almost the same size.

The not so funny: Ethan tipped over a chair and it landed on my foot.

Wolf Creek Family Reunion

My side of the family got together at Wolf Creek in the Odgen, UT canyon. All 24 of us were together for a whole week. We did lots of activities including jet skiing, playing in the sand, tubing behind the jet skis, horse riding, gun shooting, family relays with water balloons and beach balls, swimming at the resort pool, playing games till the early morning hours, and crafts. It was a very fun week! Can't wait till next year.

We went to a Dinosaur Park on the way home. Ethan enjoying playing paleontologist while uncovering a fossil in the sand, playing on the dinosaur playground, and hanging onto the guide bars around the dinosaurs outside.

Last picture is all my parents grandchildren from left to right oldest to youngest... Kaylee (9), Kirsten (8), Kiera (7), Zach (6), Kassidy (6), Jessi (4), McKenna (4), Caleb (3), Tanner (2), and Ethan (1) plus another little boy coming in October

Mischief and More Mischief

I knew this stage would come, but it doesn't make it any easier to deal with...Ethan is into everything. Every time I turn around he's getting into something new. Here's what I mean...

...into the pots and pans cupboard

...into the game cupboard

...into the dishwasher

He's even found the garbage, but lucky for me Spencer cleaned that mess up.

I guess it's time to put some locks on the cupboards!

Almost Forgot...

I almost forgot to post the pictures of the crazy hail storm on Ethan's birthday

The clouds were so dark...the lights from the kitchen are reflected in the picture

Ethan liked to watch the hail come down

and here's the hail on our back patio!

Happy Birthday Grandpa Rick

Rick turned 61 today, but we celebrated with Ethan on Friday. Happy Birthday Again Rick!

Fun with Grandpa Gale

My parents were in Blackfoot, ID yesterday visiting Grandma and Grandpa Wells (my mom's parents). They were returning from my cousin's wedding in Utah. So we spent Saturday afternoon with them. Ethan and Grandpa Gale sure had fun playing...
