just a few little things

so it seems like time to update somethings, but i'm not sure what :). naturally i look to my pictures as a guide, basically what they tell me is, it's too stinking hot to do anything so we're languishing away here...

but the laundry's getting dry as fast as i can hang it outside!

note rayna's sticker earings, she LOVED them, despite the funny face :)

we had a great time with uncle matthew when he came to visit, though i think this was the only day i actually took pictures :( sorry there weren't more!


my absolutely AMAZING cousins made matching skirts for rayna and afton... they wear them ALL. THE. TIME! i actually had to hide afton's from her for a few days! (i haven't got any great pictures though, this one was acutally in the background of another photo when i realized i hadn't taken any good ones i copied it just to show the skirt... they're INCREDIBLE!!!)

daddy helped the kids built a tent from the clean laundry :) they were sad when we had to eat dinner with those chairs!

afton's scrabble game, she'd pull out the letters and i'd help her line them up so she could sound out the words, she figured out all those words though we've barely done any 'reading' before! i was amazed.


happy boy. doesn't like to talk, loves being the center of attention



happy cucumber. tasted good, one could say it brought a smile to everyone's plate ;)
(sorry to those that saw this one on FB, i just love it so reposted it)
also, something i don't have any pictures for, paul just completed his third HHH (hotter than hell hundred) 100 mile bike race!!! he felt really good about it, and got his best time ever (6 3/4 hours) despite over 100degree weather :)
GO PAUL!!!

and double congratulations to auntie em, who just got her mission call to florida!!! 
(alligators and hurricanes and drug dealers OH MY!)
