The dumping of the pictures

We went hiking a lot this summer.  When cousin Gabe was here, we headed up to Silver Lake for a picnic and a walk around the lake.  Look!  The boys DO love each other!
I interrupted his brownie eating.  Never do that.  This boy LOVES his chocolate!
Big sister
Little sister
Little sister and big brother.  Love this picture.
All the kids - My goodness but it's beautiful up there!
EW!  Mom and dad are kissing!
Big brother had his first day of preschool.  He is loving it!  His teachers are still working on getting him to smile/laugh, so they worry that he's not enjoying it.  My little introvert.  He really does have fun!
We made our trip to the cabin with Husband's family.  The indoor pool was a big hit, as usual!
Nice goggles...

and below we have little brother with Daddy

Little sister riding the 4-wheeler with Uncle David.  They all LOVE their Uncle David!
Big sister learned how to drive the 50 and the 90 this year.  There was no getting her off those things!  Little sister really had fun, despite the look on her face here...
Little brother had THE BEST time.  He's always loved the 4-wheelers, but from a distance.  He finally got on this time and he LOVED every second!
Little sister learning to drive.  Shortly after this she forgot about slowing down while taking a corner and she dumped Daddy off the back.  He sprained his wrist, but not too bad.  She's not dying to drive again any time soon.  haha!
This boy loved the bowling.  Could not get enough!  He would have done this all day if we'd let him.
Look at that grin!
 Big sister and her cousin jumping in straight from the hot tub. 
 She seriously loved driving her own 4-wheeler!

Our favorite Aunt Summer came to town!  The kids could not get enough of her.  Little sister especially loved having her here!
This is what happens when I tell the girls they are not allowed to sleep together because they need their sleep.  Naughty girls.
Little brother made chocolate milk...Thanks buddy.
We attended the Ogden Temple Open House.  It was so beautiful!  The kids loved seeing inside the temple. 
Dad and Aunt Summer had a little 4-wheeling accident.  Summer went off the mountain and had some awesome bruises.  Then Dad fractured his tibia while trying to retrieve said four-wheeler.  It's so nice that they could convalesce together for a while!  This night we had dutch oven in our backyard because Aunt Summer said she had to have some of my dutch oven before she left.  And s'mores.  YUM!
The kiddos.  We missed Sunny and her kiddos because they were off on their own 4-wheeling adventure.
We did the caterpillar-butterfly thing again.  The kids loved watching our caterpillar eat and grow, form a chrysalis, and finally emerge as a butterfly.  This is right after he came out of the chrysalis.  Too bad we all actually missed that part!  But the kids watched him fly away after I took him outside.
Little brother had his first day of preschool!  Nothing too fancy, a group of ladies in our ward asked if I'd like to do a preschool co-op once a week.  He is the only boy, but he has fun.  We each take turns hosting and helping the host.  He's so happy that he gets to take his backpack to school just like his siblings now! 
We attended our ward campout.  The kids were thrilled to finally go camping!  It was cold, but extra pj's and a tent heater really helped.  All my cute kiddos!  (Big sister is NOT a morning person.  She's under the green blanket and that's the only picture I got...)

The leaves were already starting to turn when we went.  It was SO beautiful!  This picture does not do it justice.
The aftermath of camping...Little brother is not tired, for the record.
