September recap

In September we went to Willard Bay for the first time with some friends of ours and we had a blast!

August recap

I love this picture of these two cuties chomping on some apples...especially Gracie's bed head!

 Aaron had the opportunity to sing the National Anthem at the Davis County fair on military appreciation night and we got to come and watch him - it was awesome!

 Gracie's first day of preschool! She goes to Treasured Times Preschool with our neighbor Ms. Kate.  She loves it!

 The kids were so excited to see this double rainbow!

July Recap

We had a really fun ward carnival and Lanette was super excited about this awesome butterfly on her face!

 Parker had a chance to go in and meet his Kindergartener teacher  (Mrs. Zeilger). She had a cute rocket theme!

 I just had to take a picture of this cute scene! Hazel loves her sweet sister and Lanette is so sweet about helping her.

 Parker's first day of Kindergarten!

 Our garden was so fun this year! The kids loved going out and "harvesting" veggies.  Here are the kids showing off their bounty!

 Lanette's first day of 2nd grade!

 Aaron ran a 5K in Morgan and came in first in his age group! We were all so proud of him!

Soccer!

Parker took a soccer class and had a blast! His teacher (Logan) was so patient and good with the kids. 

 

 He really loved this drill called "Bear Cave".

 Lanette loved to be his helper and roll the ball to him.

Gymnastics

This summer we had the kids all take swimming lessons and Lanette also took a gymnastics class.  She had so much fun! She really loved the balance beam and she climbed almost to the top of  the rope!

Reunion (closing ceremonies and beach day)

Closing Ceremonies are always fun - Here is a shot of most of the grandkids.

 The kids got individual medals and as a family we won the "Spree" award for always being on a winning streak...:)

 After we check out we went to the North Beach and had a blast! (We would have gone the day before, but it was cold and rainy!) Hazel was in heaven.

 Lanette loved the little pools of water but she did venture far enough out to where the water was cold!

 Grace and her grin!

 Parker had such a blast digging.

 On the last day of the reunion all of Aaron's siblings were together so of course we had to get some pictures! Here is one of all the brothers...

 All the siblings together...

 This is the siblings in birth order with Vicki...

 I think Grace needs a new swimming suit...she seriously has a wedgie tan line!

 It was such a beautiful day!

Lambert Olympic games

We had a few Olympic events during the reunion.  Our family was in charge of the pool games.  For the youngest kiddoes we did a "Dunk your Daddy" contest.  They had to see who could dunk their Dad 10 times the fastest.  It was pretty cute!

 The next age group used the beach balls and did a seal race pushing the ball from one side to the other.

 The pool was a little full (of course) so some of the kids had helpers - like Aaron!

 Grace and Hannah chillin' with their cool floaties.

 The adults split into boy/girl teams and did the seal race and the sea horse race (we did this with the oldest kids).  It was really fun...and it showed most of us how out of shape we are in the swimming department!

 We also had some evening games (hosted by Dan and Andrea). The kids all loved the crab walk!

 I love this one of Grace and Hannah holding hands. Hannah is about 10 months older, but they were constantly running around holding hands and playing together!

 The kids had fun cheering for the grown ups.

 We talked the men into doing the crab walk race, but none of the women were volunteering! That race is a killer on your wrists!

 The kids did a little dog pile on Daddy at the finish line!

 Trying to get a picture of the whole group!
