Bryan got me a bike for my birthday this past summer...and we finally got a seat for Lizzie. That means we can go on family bike rides! Maggie has graduated from a trike to training wheels and is pretty quick with them.
We love riding around our neighborhood and being outside. Hooray for family time!
No Mom...we didn't stamp all over our bodies, the walls, our clothes, and more when we were told we were allowed to stamp on paper only...
Hmmm...
At least is washed out.
Sweatshirts in this weather? Crazy child. We pulled out the sweaters since our mornings have cooled down, but not the afternoons!
I'm amazed that Abigail made it through the day without taking her sweatshirt off. Maybe because it has princesses on it? At least the shorts balanced her out.
Friends over to play means chalk time. Right?! And you know what's even better than regular chalk? Wet chalk!
Nice artwork kiddos!
Again...at least is washed out.
Here's a taste of how shopping with Maggie goes...
Mom! Take my picture! I refuse to move on to the aisle that actually has what we came for until you take my picture.
Sister time.
Abigail has decided that Elizabeth is ready for a regular bike.
Wait! Where are your helmets?!
At least she was going slowly and holding on tight.
Look, Mom! I cleaned the floor. Good point. At least it's up off of the floor so we can vacuum.
Now to get the table cleared off. One thing at a time.
What could be better than watching BYU football?
Watching it with Dad, of course! They set themselves up, all nice a cozy. The perfect pair.
Now if we could just win a game...
Zebediah cracks us up. He has such a positive outlook on life and is constantly bringing smiles to our faces.
See...smiles! We have a wonderful family and love them so much. Even when we get busy with homework and chores and piano practicing (or teaching in my case) and swim practice and scouts and friends and church callings and activities and homework and chores and piano practicing and oh wait...I said that already...we still keep our smiles (Usually. We all have our moments of real life drama where things don't go according to plan or just how we want them to go) and remember what is really important. Family prayer, family scripture study, family home evening, family outings, family stories, family singing time. All that family time helps us keep our smiles in place and sometimes even share them with others.
