Haircuts, Babies, and Bathtime!

Aliyah kept twirling, and chewing her hair so I told her I chop it off if she did it again...
And if you look close at this bottom picture the peice in the front that looks long was just being chewed on while she twirled the rest of it!!!
Baby just relaxin' in her swing!! Just then...
No kidding either, she took the binkie with her thumb and flung it at me!
And here are my bathing beauties getting all squeaky clean!

MEMORY LANE

This has been on many friends blogs and it looked fun, so here goes-Here is a fun little game... Leave a comment on my blog of a memory that you and I have had together. It doesn't matter if you've known me for a short time, or a long time, anything you remember!
Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you. On your mark...get set...blog your memories!!

My Girls!



We weren't able to make it to the studio this time so, I got the camera out and took a few pictures of our six-now seven month old, these two were my favorite.



Rylee and Aliyah were jealous andd wanted their picture on the comp puter, too! This is their "Big Hug"!!!

Our fun day!!!

These pictures were taken in the park just down the street and around the corner. It wasn't too hot or too cold so we decided to head over there today. It was pretty awesome, river side plus a fountain, soccer, and baseball fields, giant playground (for ages 2-12), plenty of picnic room, and frisbee golf! These are just the things we did in 4 hours!!!

After Lunch...

These are all backwards, but hey I'm new at this!
After we ate and played we ended up at the fountain to cool off.
Aliyah loved getting splashed for once.
It's pretty cool, like a giant mister and it spills out 8 different spots! (see Aliyah there with her pants on)
I don't know why but whenever my kids see water their clothes fall off.
At least they laid them out to dry this time.


After lunch we played
....and played and played
and watched...
and rested a little..
and played some more...

Our non-reunion weekend

Lizabeth and the girls enjoyed our picnic very much!!! Until...





The sprinklers came on, somehow they got everyone but me!

Brynlee or Lizzy



I was talking to my Mom the other day when she mentioned the name Brynlee was growing on her. I still love the name but Ryan still likes Lizzy. So I was just curious again, who likes the name Brynlee and who likes the name Lizzy?!?

Oh and as a side note, if you go into our profile and click on the audio clip it will take you to my myspace page where there is a slide show of the most recent picture we have of the girls.

Well, I still don't have any new pictures but I thought it would be a good idea to tell about us. Ryan is from Twin Falls and I am from SLC, we met in St George the fall of 2002 and never left each others side after that, (unless he has to work and I want to leave town.) We got married in Bountiful March of 2003. We moved and moved and ended up having Aliyah in Jan 2004 while living in a small one bedroom mother-in-law house (one BEHIND another.) We moved and moved and moved again, the last time was out of Twin all the way to St George where we had our Rylee in Dec 2005. Then we thought we had a golden oppurtunity that took us from our happiest year in sunny St George back up to Twin, but it was too good to be true and we moved again to a nice two bedroom town house where we had our last beauty Lizabeth in Dec 2007. (She was enough trouble coming to make us think twice about when Daddy might try for his boy.) Life was going but we weren't sure where when one night my mother asked me on a phone call why we didn't move to Boise and send Ryan to school. Ryan, overhearing this, and being an avid BSU fanatic, got stars in his eyes and that started the ball rolling on our new found adventure.
We are still doing well and even though it's crowded at the moment, we finally have all of our things in our new home. All we have to do now is find places for eveything to go. We love and miss you all, glad we got to see those of you who came to the Porter reunion and can't wait to see those of you who are able to make it to the wedding!!!
