June-October Fun

 Girls night while daddy was working on call.  We put on fake nails.  Abby wanted the off in about 10 minutes.  I am so glad I didn't use that permanent glue!!!

 Alice driving the car on our trip to Kirtland, OH.
 Here we are at the saw mill.


Kirtland Temple 
 This is the room where Joseph Smith received revelation for an hour.  The spirit was so strong during this part of the tour.  
 For a few days, we went up to South Haven, rented a beach house, and spent time together as a family playing at the beach, going out to dinner, walking along the pier, and just being together.  It was so fun and relaxing!

 It was the perfect time to go (JULY), Alice just sat (she wasn't mobile yet) on the blanket while Brian and I threw frisbee, played in the sand, etc.  Alice loved the seagulls!  She would squeal and squack at them.  We fed them kix and cheerios to get them to come over.  








Silly Madison! 
 I went to work out at the park and Madison and Abigail kept taking Alice all over to have an adventure with her.  She is so blessed and lucky to have such great big sisters!!!
 We got rollerblade and rollerskates for the girls after they prayed to get some.  We found them at the second-hand store for only a few bucks each.  They practiced every day for a week or so.  They both got pretty good!
 Two teeth at 6 months!!!  You go girl.
 Madison begged and prayed to begin violin lessons, so after much prayer on her part, we found a great teacher and Donna lent us a violin.  Madison loves playing it and is doing so well.
 We went to Cedar Point (Amusement park) for a family trip and the girls LOVED it!  


 Abby was so excited to get the purple one!
 This is a very mild ride for Madison.  She went on multiple roller coasters with Brian.  Even one that went upside down:-)  Abby is excited to go on those when she is a bit taller.
 Madison and Abigail on their way to school for the first day.
 Abby in her Kindergarten Class.  She was so excited to get the same teacher Madison had for Kindergarten.

 Alice loves to scoot through her exersaucer.  She is so mobile now:-)  
 First time pulling up on things.
 I love this SMILE!!!
 Apple picking.  It's one of my favorite things to do in Michigan.  We made apple crisp with the apples and ate the rest.  Mmmmm good.

 Alice even got into it:-)

 Alice really enjoyed going on the rides with Abby at Chuck E Cheese.
 Brian took me to a really nice restaurant for my birthday.  It was so fun to get all dressed up.  Thanks to Anna for watching the girls.
 Too bad we don't have sliding glass doors for Alice to look out of.  She loves windows.
 Alice at her 9 month check-up.  
 Silly girls.  I told them to go and get their pj's on and this is how they came downstairs.  They were laughing and giggling so hard.
