June 2009

Well, here I am attempting to catch up on the blog per request from Grandma for some pictures! Here ya go.... June was fingerpainting mania at our house. Louisa mostly loved squirting it onto the plates and then usually would end up painting herself more than the paper.

Rhett introducing Landen to some worms during our annual summer campout that we take with Rhett's family. The past two years we've gone to Hawley Lake.

The boys doing some fishing up at Hawley...


We had weekly swim-days with our cousins. We'd swim all morning and then have lunch. Landen often fell asleep during lunch. What a beautiful boy...as summer progressed he seemed to go from baby to toddler very quickly. By the end of summer (20 months of age) he was speaking in sentences.
We also took a Saturday and went to Lake Roosevelt with some friends from a neighboring ward. We paddled the canoe, rode jet skis, played in the sand and had a great day overall. The kids loved the canoe even when it was beached. More pics from the weekend trip to my "home area" of the White Mountains with all of Rhett's family. We fished and hiked around, played games, ate, chased the kids around and had a memorable time. How can you not with 6 families living together in 3 cabins for a few days?

Louisa and Landen doing some fishing at Hawley Lake. Hopefully they will take after me in this department since I have caught the first fish of the trip for the past two years. It must be my White Mountain upbringing and the many family fishing trips we took there growing up that gives me my edge. Although, I will admit that by the end of the trip I have always been out-fished by one of the other ladies in the family and this year I definitely had an advantage since my Grandpa Rollie came up and took us out in his boat.

Louisa and cousin Nadia suited up to head down to the water at Hawley Lake. What a great start to the summer. Looking back, we sure packed it in during the month of June!
In a few days I will do July highlights and so on to try and get caught up so that posts will be more current.
