Idaho

Up and away to Idaho! We went up to Nampa to visit Jared and Jen and see their new baby before they have to move far away. It was a great visit and we loved every minute. It was sad to leave and know that was the last time we would visit them in Nampa. But we got a free trampoline out of the trip! Thanks Uncle Jared!

Amy and Talmage hanging out

Who's that good-lookin' aunt holding the new baby?

Storytime and "Purplicious"
The two who started it all.

Grandma came over after we returned, and a friend brought her little bunny over. (That's what Emily is holding)


Amy

It's fun having three little girls in our home. Amy is growing like something that grows real fast. And her sisters love to take care of her. Amy is almost six months old now and has her first two teeth. She loves to roll around on the floor and put everything she can get her hands on into her mouth. We like to call her "Velcro" because if anything gets near her, she grabs onto it. Amy is the most pleasant baby, always smiling. She sleeps the best out of the three, and we are very thankful for that. We love our little Amy!






got milk?


Random doings

It's been about six months since we've posted anything, and we've been busy. Since Amy was born, we've had three birthdays, Natalie finished Kindergarten, and there were countless activities. It's been quite a ride and it's hard to believe it's almost July. Posted then are a bunch of random pictures with descriptions of our goings-on.

Chillin' watching the computer. Bed potatoes.
Gardening with Grandad Parker up in Wyoming. Natalie is a great helper in the garden. She loves to plant things and help take care of the plants. Still chilly, summer took a while to arrive.

Mary's 32 Birthday, so we had a Jimmer party for her with the fam. Even got a Jimmer jersey. How awesome is that? She totally got Jimmered.

Joe graduated from BYU and we got to go see him.

Easter was fun with many different Easter Egg hunts. The girls really enjoyed all the festivities around Easter time.


A daddy-daughter date at a BYU rugby game. Natalie enjoyed the game but mainly I think because there was popcorn and M&Ms.

We had fun with Grandma Pratt at the Tulip Festival at Thanksgiving Point. Pretty flowers and pretty girls.



Natalie turned six this year and celebrated by having a few friends over. Natalie loves cooking and wanted to go to a bakery, so we went to Ream's and toured their bakery. The girls even got to watch the lady frost her cake for her.



Janetta and Zak and The Parker grandparents made the trip down twice for Natalie's birthday and Emily's birthday.

When it finally got warm we went for a hike up the canyon. We took our bug nets and caught lots of butterflies. It was great to got out and the girls actually enjoyed the hike.
