Fall Pictures

My sister and I went out on another adventure at an attempt to take fall pictures of our kids, well 90% of them were "non-smiling" pics but we did get a few cute ones even if the kiddos didn't smile. Here are some of the good ones.

WHAT!?

So on thursday i got the shock of a lifetime! Mylee had her three year old check up, well at this check up they can do an estimate of about how tall the child will be. Well as most of you know Mylee's dad is 7 feet 2 inches tall, yeah he is not small by all means, so I have always wondered how tall Mylee was going to be, I was always a little nervous about this, ya know hoping that my little girl wasn't going to grow up to be 7 feet tall her self. Well when I got the paper showing her trail of growth I had to laugh my little girl is going to grow up to be a whopping 5'6!!! wahoo, that is my exact height. How funny is that. Anyway just thought I would share my big suprise.

Fish Farm Field Trip!

For Mylee's preschool they do a field trip once a month this month we went to the fish farm! Mylee invited her cousins Emily and Allie to come along with us!








Mylee Fishing








Yea! We got one










Mylee holding her first catch! She was so brave to hold it, and she did really well. She really liked holding it until it wiggled and then she threw it on the ground and was a little nervous after that.










Mylee feeding the fish!

Well they clean and fillet the fish for you which is awesome, so when we were done we came home and cooked them up for dinner. They tasted great! The day was tons of fun the kids loved it, mylee actually caught a fish all by herself she was just playing around dipping her fishing line in and out of the water and actually caught a fish she was so excited. Thanks Amber and girls for coming with us!

Weekend with my sister!

So my sisters husband owns an outdoor store called the summit shop, specializing in skis, snowboards, camping climbing ect. it is an awesome store, however this time of year he does alot of traveling to ski swaps and such. So needless to say, my sis gets quite lonely. So she invited Mylee and I to stay over last weekend with her and her house in Eden. Mylee and Emily had so much fun together! Friday we made cinnimon rolls and the girls helped out plenty!










YUM!!! They were so good.


Then we all played duck duck goose. The girls had tons of fun but they didn't want to wait until they were called on the goose, they wanted to chase or be chased constantly, but they enjoyed themselves anyway!










Then the next day the girls played in the tall grass by my sisters house.



They played for quite a while in the grass pretending to be Simba and Mufasa from the lion king. It was so much fun to watch them play.




Then we decided to go for a hike up a trail that isn't too far from my sisters house. We went a couple of miles and the girls never complained. They loved the hike and enjoyed looking for skat along the way! I know you are all jealous of that.










Well then at the end of the hike I found a prayingmantus {I am sure that that isn't spelled right, but it will have to do.} I put it on Mylees arm to hold it, she thought it was the coolest thing ever until it decided to climb up her arm and start poking her face, oh man i got the best picture of this, I laughed so hard, it has also come to be one of Mylee's favorite pictures, she thinks she is so funny everytime she looks at it because everybody else laughs when they see the picture.

Hilarious!!! I loved it. Anyway thanks Amber for letting us keep you company. We had tons of fun!

Mylee's first day of preschool

So Mylee started preschool on Tuesday, she was so excited! I personally can't believe how fast time goes by, I can't believe my baby is already at preschool age. Well tuesday was a get to know the teachers day, her teachers had a little carnival set up for them so that they could play games and have a good time, after the games they showed the kids the classroom and gave them a choice of colored paper crayons that they could decorate. Mylee really enjoyed this activity they had us glue the same color of paper torn into little pieces and glue them onto the paper crayon, mylee loved this, she did get a little glue happy though, she would use the whole bottle of glue if I let her. Mylee already made a few new friends and is very excited for today because it is her second day at preschool!

Mylee was way to excited for school to allow for pictures







Finally a smile for the camera!

Mylee's preschool is in our neighborhood so we walk, or should I say run to school!

Here are a few of the games she played at school!

Peach Days parade and the giant princess pumpkin!

So last saturday Mylee and I went to the Peach Days Parade in Brigham City, we had a great time, mylee loved to watch all of the floats go by, and she loved all of the free candy and toys that she got! Every time people would pass playing a musical instrument she would start to dance and sing, she was so funny! After the parade we were walking back to our car and this old guy came up to us and started talking to mylee and asked her if she wanted to see a magical pumpkin, he said that it was so magic that it was growing really big because it wants to become cinderella princess carriage. Then he asked her if she was a princess and Mylee said "Yes, i'm a princess" the he said well do you want to see the magic pumpkin? So he took us back to his garden to see his magic pumpkin!


He said that this pumpkin weighs 716 lbs. It is huge, last year he said they had a 942 lb. pumpkin, during halloween they carve a jack-o-lanter face out of it, and carve a small door in the back so kids can go inside of them. I thought that it was awesome, Mylee loved it after we left all she talked about was the princess pumpkin.

Golfing with my sisters!

So my sisters Amber and Heidi both play golf and every time they go I hear about how much fun they had, so I decided that I wanted to give it a try! Well Heidi and I went and hit a bucket of balls at toad's then a week later me, Amber and Heidi went to swan lakes and golfed. It was so much fun! I loved it, I must say that I am probably the worst golfer in existence, but I really enjoyed myself! The course had a total par of 31, well I got 75... Yeah I suck that bad :( But I still enjoyed myself, and I am excited for the next time i get to go. Hopefully I will be a little better, apparently because I hit the ball so often it took a long time, well one of the employees drove her golf cart up to us and told us that we needed to hurry up our game because they were starting to get backed up. Oops!









My sisters did give me a few tips but apparently they didn't help










Heidi picking out her club












Amber getting retting to hit!










Us girls after our game!
