August Madness













<----Just before everyone left Utah, Paige went boating with Derek and his in-laws in Logan. The bonneted-baby is little boy Nixon. He'll just have to grown into that life-vest, I guess
























----> Paige ended up loving to tend Nixon,



and he ended up loving her!




You can see why we are going to miss this little family so much!!



Nix loves his mommy Linds!!


















Aunt Brooke with her "Booh-Boose"


















Bye-bye Nixon. We are going to miss you soooooooo much!









----> Here are my 3 dear boys visiting Boulder Dam on the first leg of a looooong 2-day road trip to Miami. Erv is taking the picture and the 4 of them spent lots of 'bonding' time driving across the country. First "guys" trip ever!







DISNEYLAND!!



<---Our family vacation--just the 6 of us. Brooke left for China just days before.




















Disneyland on Rex's birthday. We had breakfast with the characters and Pluto nabbed Rex right away.




<----Don't laugh - Hayley was a good sport and went with us even though she had been extremely sick for 2 days and sick all the way there in the car and sick that morning when we forged through the gates. We got her a wheelchair and she lasted through the morning and into the early afternoon before she had to go back to the hotel and take a nap and more medicine. It was a rather pathetic sight. But, she held our bags and got us on Splash Mountain without waiting so it must have been worth it.
<---Taking care of little Sis. Nina was kind of scared to go on the Indiana Jones ride, so big brother put his arm around her and she ended up having a ball. Rex always seems to make everything better.








Three August birthdays in 2 days!! All three Birthday kids try on Cake Hats at the hat shop. And, NO, Mom is NOT pregnant with Birthday Kid #4 (she just looks that way - for some reason.....)





...and THESE girls are just BAD to the BONE...


.Three princesses visiting with............



........three princesses - Aurora, Cinderella & Ariel



Before leaving, Rex wanted this shot of him and his best friend for their birthdays. Can it get more perfect than this?


The vacation and summer were wonderful.
We came home to see everyone off to school:
First day of school - rainy! But, after a few jitters, lots of fun......
Now on to a very hectic fall season, as always.
