August Updates

August was a great month.  One of the highlights was Tyler being blessed.  It was great to have so many family and friends there.  Somehow, we didn't get any pictures of Tyler in his cute Sunday clothes, but we did get pictures of him with his grandmas (thanks Michelle for the pics!).



We sent the girls to Utah for a week.  They had a great time riding four-wheelers, going to Lagoon, and a whole bunch of other places.  I don't think they missed mom and dad too much.


They did miss Tyler though.  The girls are so good to him and love to hold him and play with him.



With school starting in September, of course we had to get the girls some new clothes.  I can't believe Nicole will be going to school this year!  Here they are showing off a new outfit.


The last weekend in August we went down to the coast with some of our friends.  We had a great time and lucked out with some awesome weather while we were there.  We spent all day at the beach and also got a workout holding Tyler.  He loves to be held!


The kids were searching for little crabs in the tide pools and we found a spot in the shade for Tyler to rest.  Here he is wrapped up in Scott's jacket.


One of our friends with us had some crab traps, so we had to try them out.  We brought home 3 crabs to eat...this one was huge (the picture doesn't do it justice).  He tasted good, too.  The kids had a fun time helping pull the traps in and catching several crabs.


There was a hot tub on the deck, so of course we had to try it out.  It as nice and hot and the kids enjoyed a little soak.  The adults did also after the kids went to bed :)


Nicole managed to get buried in the sand and looks like a mermaid here.


This is a picture Scott took from the back deck while the sun was going down.  What a beautiful day!


Now it is time for school to start and for us to get back to real life I guess.
