So I have decided that you guys are very busy or I just have too much time on my hands. These pictures are from my birthday a couple of weeks ago. Zeeli and I both had one candle to blow out.







These pictures are Emma Jo using the clicker as a phone. I wonder who she was calling.

Well it has been a long time since we have posted anything and I'm thinking it's because of the summer. For some reason we seem to be so busy. Here are a couple of things that we have been up to. The girls and I went to Pgh for 2 1/2 weeks and even though we had lots of fun, we are glad to be home. Emma Jo seemed to have a very difficult time in Pgh, it might have been the change in scenery or the fact that dad wasn't around or maybe all of the above. Since we have been back we have been busy with bridal showers, baby showers, weddings, cousins going through the temple, etc. For July 4th we attended a rodeo with Dallon's aunt and we all loved it. Zeeli's favorite was watching the princess's ride on horses. Dallon's favorite was the bull riding. Emma Jo's favorite was the magnificent fireworks and mine was "Miss Universe" who was the comic relief of the rodeo. Tiffany Holmes (Dallon's cousin) who is 12, visited with us for almost a week. Having guest always seems to drain me. Dallon took the GRE again and was much more pleased with the results. Besides that things are just moving along. Emma Jo has officially started walking and I gave Zeeli a hair cut, she loves it and I love not having to deal with the constant knots. Well here are some pictures from the events.

This is Zeeli's new haircut. As I was doing it I voweled to myself that I would never do it again. She is so wiggly that I kept cutting it shorter and shorter as I was trying to get it straight and I still think that it is crooked.

On July 3rd we attended a rodeo in Kamas, UT which was tons of fun.

Aren't we so good looking with our sunglasses?

In Pgh I spent a couple of nights with my sister Jessy and this is her little girl Kiera. Emma Jo and Kiera got along very well.

At the Science Center Emma Jo was having a blast.

A big group of us went to an ice cream shop in the Stript District. The kids loved their baby cones.
