September 2013

On September 1st my little guy turned the big 7! He chose an Ironman theme and decided to pick out a cake from the store this year. He was sure spoiled!

On the 2nd, we met a Yorkie stud named Little Ricky. He became skittles boyfriend, but unfortunately there were no puppies this time :(

That afternoon we ate at Chick-fil-A. 

 Here's a picture of one of our tadpoles from the 4th. They are getting bigger, but no legs yet.

Later that day I was taking pictures and got this cute one for a screensaver on my phone.

Christian insisted I also take one with myself in it,

and extras of him!

On September 7th, we went to Sam's Club after the soccer games for a free lunch of samples.

 

The next day, we visited the grandparents after church. (Note that Faith stole my super high-heeled wedge shoes and was wearing them!)

 

My handsome boy is showing off a temporary tattoo here on the 10th.

September 14th we went to get peaches from Brigham city before it was too late in the season. Because we heard it was super rainy in Kaysville we decided to slough Christian soccer game and go to Logan instead. Here we are going into the cheese factory.

Since we were that far, we made the further track to the Pepperidge Farm factory.

And the kids would not let us head home without stopping by Smith and Edwards for a ton of candy, their favorite being these sets of dummies shaped like other foods.

Here is some artwork that I was clearing off our display wall. Faith made this early in the summer when she was getting excited for our Park city excursion.

Christian colored this picture of himself blowing lots of bubblegum bubbles.

We were expecting our Chinese teacher visitor at the end of August, but she hasn't come yet. We read decorated Christian's room to be her bedroom,

and the kids even picked out a new shower curtain with Chinese lettering for the bathroom, which we gave a fresh coat of paint.

A short while before, we had gotten this new furniture piece to go behind our couch.

 On the 19th I felt our tadpoles had grown big enough that they needed a different home. I added the rock so that when they got their legs they could climb out of the water.

On the 24th, we harvested the last of the goodies out of our garden. His chin even found some worm and slug friends.

September 27th was the Heritage Hike--the schools sole fundraiser, where they just ask for sponsoring donations and have the kids run around the track for 45 minutes. I volunteered to help and stood at a station where we have the kids stop and do push-ups if they wanted, just to keep it interesting.

  On the 28th my mom and dad came to the kids' soccer games.

My dad got some pictures with his camera.

that afternoon we went to lagoon for some Frightmares!

On September 29th, Evelyn was blessed. What a beautiful little girl :)
