Hannah's new bangs!

Last Sunday I was SO irritated with Hannah's hair falling into her eyes. She won't keep anything in her hair either. So Daddy held her and I chopped off her bangs! She looks cute but it grew her up a lot! I'm sad!

End of the summer! Let's go to the park!

We went to the park Thursday night with the neighbors. These are some cute pictures!

These are some of Heidi (Abby & Natalie's Mom), Sarah Steele and me at a Relief Society Activity! We look evil!

Jenna's new skills!

On July 9th (I only know that's what day it was cause of the camera!) Jenna's training wheels went bye bye. She had trouble at first and quickly mastered it! Now we go on bike rides in the evening with the big dogs.

Then sometime in these last few weeks she's learned how to whistle and LOVES it! Daddy says that's why we need to eat our crust.

The next things she's learned to do is blow bubbles! I was able to get a good picture of the big one! Then just now we were watching "How It's Made" and it was featuring bubble gum. Did you know that the stuff inside to make it chewy is made out of plastic? Gross! No wonder we shouldn't swallow it!

Girls' new favorite!

So we have discovered that our entire family loves Sugarland! The new song, "All I Want to Do" is definitely Jenna's favorite! As soon as we get in the car she says, "I want to hear the 'Ooh Ooh' song! Hannah also tries to sing along. If I move my hands up and down palms up (try it and you'll know what I mean) Hannah does it too! It's too cute!

Also Andy and I were watching Great American Country(music videos) and saw this new one by Brad Paisley. You should all watch it! I was going to put it on here but I'm afraid I'll get in trouble. Here's the link to it on YouTube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvKgnkIN8C8

Swimming at the Payson Pool

The girls LOVE the new Payson pool! Hannah especially loves the slide! She can't go down by herself so I have to put her on the top and hold her hand as she goes down. There is a great big bucket that fills up and then dings before it dumps and Jenna always runs to get in it. There is also a lazy river that is fun. Jenna was scared to put her face in the water earlier this summer and now she swims under the water all the time!

There was one day that Me, Jenna, Hannah and the neighbor girls Abby and Natty were going to go to the pool but it wasn't open. We had our suits and sunscreen already on and I didn't want to go home. I called up Nana and we went to her neighbor's pool! It was fun! Abby and Jenna were so brave and went off the diving board. I went also-3 times! The second time I belly flopped though and it hurt really bad!

New living room!

Here is our new living room! Anyway, Andy and his awesome brother Adam worked like 5 or 6 nights after work to make a window for me between the living room and the kitchen. It makes both rooms SO much more spacious. Then we tore out that terrible green carpet and painted one wall brown. The carpet is brown also and looks SO nice! It makes the rest of the house look even worse! Look at all the gross stuff and dirt that was under the green carpet!

Sad sad sad!

So I had a traumatic experience last night. Nana & Papa had watched the girls while Andy and I worked. I picked them up around midnight and proceeded on my way home. In between Salem and Payson I noticed something funny looking moving along side the ride. It looked like a tiny animal with some kind of wrapper in it's mouth. I had to turn around to see what it was and called Andy laughing. As I was telling him the story I pulled off the side of the road and this 'thing'was in the middle of the lane. I was still debating on whether it was alive or just something blowing in the wind. I waited as two vehicles passed. The first went over the top of this 'thing' and the second one smashed it. It sounded like it was maybe a drink cup somewhat full. I got out of the car and walked over to it. It was a little kitten that must have stuck its head in a wrapper for some food. I'm guessing it couldn't get the wrapper off of its head and was wandering aimlessly in the road. Of course it had been smashed and I was stuck with this sad picture in my head. I should've saved the little kitten while I had the chance but I was afraid it was an animal that might hurt me.

PAYSON FIRE!!!

Wow! This is a scary one! Jessica it's a good thing you don't still live in your house here!

The fire is just East of Main Street and they've evacuated 14 houses! I was really worried

that it had already gotten some! I drove up there to get a better look and the majority of Main Street is blocked off. Scout camp up in the Canyon had to be evacuated, KSL.com said there were about 400 scouts! Lot's of smoke! The little neighbor girls and Jenna were very

worried about the deer and 'squirlies'. I think I am also!
