We got to go to Indie's class and have lunch with her. I made her a caterpillar cupcake for her class. It turned out pretty cute. She was very excited about it.




She got to wear a special birthday hat and we all sang to her in front of the class with her teacher, Mrs. Self.






















Indie loves her teacher! She is great with the kids and a perfect kindergarten teacher!





















I had to put at least one crazy picture in!











Daddy and Tadhg came along too!

Indie's cousin's James and Hannah came up for the celebration!!









Even her cousin Miranda sent her a present!! And Indie was so excited! Miranda even made her a really cute card. Thank you Miranda!








Playin' boy grandpa gave her a cute soccer shirt.











Big brother gave her a car for her Barbie's to ride in. You can't tell in this picture but she was really excited!







Indie's favorite present I think had to be the Barbie head (the kind you where you fix their hair) that Tadhg gave her. She was ecstatic!!!















I think this smile tells a lot!





















Thanks little brother!!!











Thank you Granny for the cute princess book!




The book came with a few princess accessories!




















Our neighbors gave Indie an iDog.
It plays music, dances and barks to music and most importantly.... it's pink!!!



















Here is Indie's birthday present cake! She helped mommy make it, she is my little helper in the kitchen! She loves to help me cook and I love to have her cook with me!












I can't believe my little girl is 5!!! The get big way too fast!

FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL!!!!!!!

Indie was so excited to start kindergarten! She could hardly stand herself!


Lex was a little excited and a little nervous!


Daddy and his big boy in 3rd grade!!!!!! Lex is getting so big we can hardly believe he is in the 3rd grade already!

Indie standing by her classroom...she told us "I won't even miss you!" She insisted on taking her teacher an apple.

Tadhg had to carry the lunch boxes, he wanted to feel important, too!!!
Here comes our kids! All done with their first day!

Tadhg really missed his brother and sister. I think Indie missed her big brother, too!

When we picked the kids up Indie told Paul, "Daddy, I didn't even miss you or get in trouble! And I didn't even have to go to the principles office!!"

Last day of play before school!! We went fishing bright and early then swimming with the Lovelands!!! We love hanging out with our cousins!!!

Lex was so excited about his "fishing" hat! He decorated it with a bunch of hooks and bait to bring him good luck! And I guess it did cuz he caught 11 fish!!

Lex being Mr. Cool and Maren who is quite the swimmer! She decided to take a break from her laps to let me take her picture......But you've still got nothin' on my doggy paddlin'!!


Sammy is such a awesome big brother and cousin!! He is always taking care of someone! If it's not his little brother James it's Tadhg! He is such a great example to our kids! Thanks Sam!

Cute little blondies!! And daddy and the little ones!

Tadhg probably jumped off the side to me about 30 times in a row!! He kept saying "again, again?" It was so cute how could I resist! Despite the faces we are both pulling it looked cute from a distance!


Lex and Hannah always have fun together. They're both crazy, full of energy, and as skinny as a toothpick!!

Nice hair....enough said

Here they all are!! The Ingrams and the Lovelands! (Paul's sisters kids)
We had a blast! Thanks guys! We are so glad we live closer to you now!

Amicalolah Falls

We went to Amicalolah State Park with our new ward ate lunch, went fishing and played at the park. The kids had a blast!


Indie had fun getting soaking wet in the water, Tadhg could have thrown rocks all day and Lex could have fished till the sun went down! But the only thing he was catching happened to be GIANT tadpoles!!



Tadhg loves to hold everything that Lex catches. He loves to throw them back in the water and he even gave this tadpole a big fat kiss!! YUCK!!! It must not of tasted to good by the look on his face! Then he decided to pee on Daddy's tire.....he keeps us on our toes at all times!
