1st Day of School Pictures!

Summer Fun & Lake Powell!

 We had such a fun summer! Busy, Busy, Busy! Swim lessons, t-ball, visits from family, friends, etc.! We topped it off right before school started with our annual Stewart Family trip to Lake Powell!

 Brynn has turned into a little fish--she LOVES swimming!

Sophia's 8th!

 One of our biggest events of the summer was Sophia's 8th birthday and her baptism! We can't believe she has grown up so quickly! She is such a sweet girl, great friend, big sister, and is always trying to do her best! We had a special day with her and all her family on her baptism and will remember it always! For her party, we took some friends to Color Me Mine and painted!

Children's Parade!

We're getting ready for the 4th! We had a fun time at the annual parade this morning! You might recognize these 2 floats from previous years, but we decided since we've stored them for so long, to give them one more "run" before we said good-bye! We have lots of fun memories and pictures on them at least (and trophies!).

Why We Love Summertime...

 1. Falling asleep in the car after an exhausting, busy day (with my shades, of course)!

2. Fishing! And actually CATCHING fish! A fun day with Grandma and Grandpa Ward and Uncle Jason! Topped off with hot dogs and s'mores!

(of course B-Rose was mainly interested in the snacks!)

3. Swim Parties with friends!

4. Cheer Camp and city carnivals!

5. Trips to Colorado to visit Grandma and Grandpa Stewart and the American Girl Doll Store!! (And the Lego store for Ethan and the Moyer boys--forgot to get a picture!)

6. Father's Day!!

7. Soccer Camp with my friend and the "trainers" from Ireland on the "pitch!" "Good lad!"

8. Cute baby doll in summer dresses! Sophia has discovered that she loves taking pictures of her little sister and a lot of them turn out pretty cute! 

9. T-Ball with the super competitive kid who doesn't understand playing "no outs" and not keeping score. "I got that kid out Dad, I touched the base, why is he still there?"

10. There's still more fun to come...!

Soccer and Easter Egg Hunting!

First soccer game of the spring season! Here's Ethan's game! He got a couple goals today and had a fun time!

 One of our awesome neighbors organized this fun, much anticipated Easter egg hunt!

Baby

We are totally enjoying our new little baby doll! She puts up with lots of kisses and slightly rough hugs! We all just love holding her all day long! She's growing too fast for mamma already!
