Liberty NY

So we went to visit Grandpa, Grandma, Uncle Devin, Aunt Nikki and baby Jonas this past weekend and here are the pictures to prove it.  We had a lot of fun, simply enjoying family.  Thanks y'all!! 

Update of our Lives...

Saturday's are always busy around here and today was no different.  Up at 7, well we tried, then off to the park at 9 to drop off signs for the Walk-a-thon, then to soccer by 10.  Played for an hour, that was fun.  Brynn is having a tough time adjusting to soccer this year, it seems that she keeps getting "sick" when on the playing field.  More on that later.  Then to the bank, pay the car payment, then to the Walk-a-thon, walk 5 K's to raise canned food for the local food bank.  Came home, rested, showered, and took Brynn's tempature 101.3, bad mom for not believing her that she was really sick. :( Then Destry and I went on a date, to Cruise Night.  We saw some really great cars, Mustangs, Fairlaines etc.  Then to dinner at 99, yummy steak tenderloin tips mmmmm!!!!  Then shopping for new shoes and a new car seat for Aury, little bugger just keeps growin'.  Back to my mom's (a big thank you for babysitting) then home again.  Just got everyone in bed, whew!!!  A lot of fun, but we are tired, and now I am off to prepare (more) my lesson for tomorrow and Destry is doing homework!!  Yes, he started school, I am so proud of him for taking  on this new endeavor.  He isn't too much of a school buff, so I know how difficult this is for him and I am so glad that he is willing to sacrifice even more of his "free" time to better himself.  I am very glad to have him as my husband, I don't tell him that enough.  Love ya!!!

End of Summer Fun...

Aury enjoying the grass and sunshine
Barefoot Keagyn, she is always without her shoes!!!
Look, no training wheels!!!!
Looking good!!

Brynn and Keagyn have been having a great time riding bikes this summer.  We have the best street too, it is long straight and flat.  Last night when I came home from Kick Boxing, I was informed that Brynn could now ride a two-wheeler on her own, NO TRAINING WHEELS!!!  I was so amazed at this accomplishment.  Dad on the other hand, was rather disappointed, why you make ask, because she figured it out on her own, no teachers, nada, nothin'.  Simply got her friend's bike and rode.  Keagyn now wants to try it too, but mom is a little nervous about that one, maybe next summer.  

Auryana turns 6 months

Auryana sitting up.....and eating sweet potatoes for the first time, she didn't like the rice cereal at all so we simply waited till it was time for the "real" food and she has taken quite the liking to it, of course she still prefers momma....

Today my sweet baby girl is 6 months old....where has the time gone.  She is sitting up, getting very good at rolling to the floor from sitting up and is scooting everywhere!!!  I believe it will be only a few more weeks till the little monkey is crawling!!!!!!  She is the happiest thing in the entire world, everyone at church and where I work out is always amazed at how happy she is.  They are constantly asking me if she ever cries, because they have never heard her cry.  She is fabulous!!!  I am so glad to have her in our family....we love you Miss Aury!

Back to School....

Here are some pretty pictures of a recent sunset that we had here in Connecticut, thought I would share the beauty with all of you....

Here are pictures of Brynn and Keagyn from their first day of school.  Keagyn loved Preschool so much that she threw a tantrum when it was time to go, yes mom felt real good about that.  Brynn loved 1st grade and going to school all day, eating lunch in her classroom and all that jazz!!!  

Lillies

These lilies are from my mom's garden, they are beautiful!!!

Kitchen

Before and then....

AFTER!!!  :)

I promised pictures of the kitchen, it isn't spotless, don't judge me, but it is pretty!!

Toes Toes and Yes More Toes

Aury LOVES her toes!!!

Ice Cream with Twalla

Thank you to Twalla for taking the girls out for ice cream it was very tasty!!!  I liked the beauty of the tree at the park where we got ice cream.  

Drool Monster Part 2

If you didn't get to see Part 1 take a look under July, but here are more good pictures of the never ending supply of moisture that comes dripping out of Aury's mouth.  

Home Teachers

We had our "new" Home Teachers over last night, and we had a great time.  Good lesson and lots of laughs too.  The funny thing is we got Keagyn to say a lot of words with r's in them... you know park the car, Noah's ark, etc.  Some of you may wonder why, well she has a Boston accent.  It is so cute and hilarious!!!  I will see about video taping it and putting it on the site.  

Random Pictures of Aury

These are just funny....

4th of July Parade

Once again, I am late at posting, but hey better late than never I always say....here we are the parade in Groton.  The funniest thing happened as the parade was starting.  The color guard for the police were walking down the road when we all heard screaming.  They dropped the flags, or handed them off to others and ran to arrest someone.  Very memorable, sorry no pictures of the felon, just my cute family.

The last picture is the "float" our ward did.  The theme was Home Town Heros, so we thought that the two Eagle Scouts, and wanna be Eagle Scout would be great.  The missionaries were also there passing out pass a long cards and other flyers.  

Keagyn the Flower Girl

The bride was my first counselor in the YW's Presidency, and Keagyn took it upon herself to help he around with her dress, she was in heaven.

I got to do the flowers, good to know I haven't lost the touch.

Drool Monster

Aury is the biggest drooler, look closely at her clothes (as seen in the following)....

Also, Daddy loves to "dress her up" and make her the fashion queen or victim, take your pick.

Catching zzzz's

Here is the Keagster napping.  Yes I let her sleep in her bed, but she fell asleep in the car ride home, and then she was playing in the stroller and simply fell asleep.  

Kindergarten Program...Late

Okay, here are some pictures of Brynn's end of year program.  They all did such a great job, they sang so many cute songs, and the teacher's even had it choreographed!!!  Talk about dedication and patience.   Oh yeah, it was so hot in the gym, the schools here don't have AC and this was during our first 90/90 days, which means temp in the 90's and humidity in the 90's too, way to much fun!!

Our New Nephew and Cousin

Jonas Lee Ure arrived on Sunday July 27th and 5:00am.  Congratulations Uncle Devin and Aunt Nikki!!!  We love you all and can't wait to meet the little guy!!
