Summer Fun!

We have been having such a fun summer that I have put off posting about it. Honestly, we have been away from the house a lot so I haven't spent too much time on the computer. Some exciting news for those of you who don't know, Tyler got a math teaching job at Tooele High, so we will be moving out there the first part of August! We are very excited for this new chapter in our lives but also sad to leave Logan, we have made some good friends up here.

Now on to the fun summer we have been having. Oh about a month ago the girls and I went with Aunt Cami to the Treehouse museum in Ogden. Sophie had a blast dragging her poor preggo aunt around the whole museum. They had tea parties, drew with water on stones, brushed teeth, played with blocks....you name it they did it!

Then at the end of June we went with some friends to the Manti Pageant. We had such a good time. Tyler and I visited our favorite pizza place in the whole world!!! FAT JACKS (now called Roy's Pizza)!!! We gorged ourselves on the much coveted fat sticks...man oh man were they good!!! After that we got our hotel, saved us some seats at the temple and headed to the tabernacle for dinner. We ate dinner and then headed back to the temple for the pageant. Sophie only made it through about 40 minutes and then crashed on Tyler's lap. Zoe...well I'm sure you can guess that she was out from the start! On the way home we stopped by Tyler's sister and let Sophie and Zoe play with their cousins for a while. We came home tired and happy, it was a great weekend.

Here we are at the pageant.

On the fourth of July my mom came out for a few days. We played lots while she was here. Shopping, swimming, shopping....did I mention shopping, and we helped my little sister make a quilt for her baby girl that is due in September. Sophie and Zoe had so much fun with Grandma and Aunt Cami, it was hard to get them home!

Sophie playing with the bubbles she won at the fish pond.

Sophie and Grandma waiting for the fireworks. Sophie actually made it through the whole night! She loved ooing and awing the fireworks.
Now for my little Zoe. She is getting big so fast! Here she is, four months old, it seems like it took Sophie forever to get to this point! She loves to coo and roll over. In all honesty I think I am going to have another little chatter box on my hands!

Having fun in her bouncer!

Trying rice cereal for the first time. It went better than the look on her face suggests!
Finally, my Sophie. I bought her a princess backpack for church (to carry all her stuff in so I don't have to haul it all, along with a full diaper bag). She is in love with the stinkin' thing. So far she sleeps with it and is constantly wearing it all around the house. She is even pretending to go to school! Gotta love her!

Here is the bag that never comes off!
