July Fun

July started off with lots of sports for both Aubrie and Brynnley. 

This was Brynnley's first year playing soccer in the 3-4 yr old rec group. 

She enjoyed kicking the ball around as well as running along all the kids during the game. I think she also enjoyed sitting in the grass and making 'bird nests' while on the sidelines :)

Aubrie was busy with playing soccer and making lots of goals! She even scored 6 goals for her team during 1 game. She is very competitive and always paying attention to the ball and is learning the rules of soccer. 

Aubrie also played baseball this year and had 2 home runs in 1 game! She has a really good arm and throws quite a ways with good aim.

The girls enjoyed a day at the Zoo with Grandma and Grandpa Evans before school started again.

This year we had planned to go to the Cabin for the 4th of July but had some last minute changes and ended up going to Payson Lakes for some fishing and were lucky to have Grandma and Papa P come up for a day to celebrate. 

 We did get to enjoy a parade in July at Draper Days. 

Happy 4th of July

For the 4th of July we had originally planned to go to the cabin but plans changed and I was able to get 2 nights at Payson Lakes. We enjoyed going up and enjoying the quite and peacefulness of the campground and lake. On the 4th my parents brought Grandma and Grandpa P up for the day. This was the first big outing they have had in the past 2 years. Grandpa's health isn't so great anymore and he has a hard time getting around without a cane or walker and is falling all the time. I think it was a fun time for him to get out of the house and enjoy some sun and picnic in the mountains for the day.

Summer Fun

The weather decided to finally warm up a bit and so we took advantage of playing in the water in June.

Herriman Fireworks were in June and normally we can enjoy sitting at the park at night. Well, this year we sat in the back of my SUV wrapped in blankets and coats until the fireworks started since it was so chilly.

Summer sports started up with Aubrie playing baseball. She loves the competition and continues to have a good throw/aim since she was a tiny girl tossing a ball back and forth to me at 6 months old.

Brynnley started her first year playing soccer. Her teams name is the Flaming Hot Cheetos! She likes to chase around the ball but also enjoys playing in the grass while sitting on the sidelines and pretending she is a bird. 

We went to the Lehi Rodeo this year which the girls loved dressing up in their cowgirl hats and boots. 

Family Pictures

For my birthday present this year I wanted to get more family pictures since the girls are growing so fast and are so cute right now. Tasha Whitmil has done them for the past few years and I have loved how they turn out. We took them at a beach house in Daybreak early in the morning, but due to the crazy Utah weather it was only in the 40's that morning so Brynnley was not too happy.

I am glad we got some cute pictures, especially having the pictures of me and the girls together are really important to me.
