Le Joie de Vivre!




Yesterday, I decided to be brave and take all three boys to the beach. We had a wonderful time!

Bon Anniversaire Thomas and James!!


Everyone loves San Francisco!


Philip warmed up to Cass and Scott


James was king of the mountain.


Charlie and Philip finally meet!


We love Aunt Cassidy!


Philip is already asking for the keys.


Uncle Mike was a gem. He played with the boys nonstop.


Feeding baby cows with a ginormous bottle


Brave little James went down the zipline.


My mom was amused that the boys went right to the gorillas "milks" and tried to get something to come out!


Deeply concerned about a baby bird that fell from the nest.



What could be more exciting than a key and a padlock?




Uncle Ryan and Aunt Liz were so sweet to the boys.


Thomas and James are four today!! They are celebrating with Nick in the Magic Kingdom and I am home enjoying Philip and missing them.
July has been fabulous. We spent two weeks in Utah visiting family and had so much fun. Highlights for the boys were riding in Uncle Mikes Ferrari cars, swimming at Grandpa Buehner's pool and driving the power wheels at Grandma Calls. They haven't stopped talking about how much they loved Utah!
We had a little birthday celebration for the boys with the key and padlock cakes (thanks to my mom and Liz) that they requested. Thomas and James loved them. We visited the zoo, went boating at Bear Lake, celebrated great-grandpa Buehner's 80th birthday, went to the Buehner's condo in Heber and had fun hanging out with family and friends. My mom and Liz were so nice to fly back with us and help with the kids. It was so fun to have them here for a few days. Thanks for the fun trip. We miss all of you!
