Random Pictures

I found all these pictures on Andrew's phone. I didn't realize he had so many on his phone that were so cute! They are all random and some are from Mississippi and some are from Utah!
Ella right now loves to comb every body's hair and play with it and Olivia was a good cousin to let her "comb" her hair!
The kids running back and forth in the gym at the family reunion we went to!
Easton loved our broom we kept outside on our porch and would head to it every time we went outside he loves the broom and dust pan!
This is how Ella and the two little kids next door would communicate through a hole in the fence. They kept telling her to throw the ball over and if she didn't they wouldn't be her friend it was funny she has no idea what that means so it made no sense to her.


Easton playing in the floaty from swimming our second night on our way to Utah. It was a great entertaining tool while we packed up our hotel room!

We miss our house and yard! Ella keeps asking when we are going back to our house with her bed and toys!
Grocery shopping + nap time = Easton sleeping in the cart!
I found my old glasses and she loves putting them on. They hardly have any prescription so they aren't bad for her and she looks pretty cute in them!
Easton loves Andrew's shoes. He loves to put shoes on his hands which grosses me out but also loves to walk around in Andrew's shoes and they are huge on him but I have a feeling with as fast as his feet are growing he will eventually be able to fill those shoes!
We have been helping a few times in my aunt and uncles yard for my sisters upcoming wedding and they have a little lawn mower Easton loves! I guess we will have to get him one he loves it!
Stealing Papa's chair when they hear him coming home from work is a favorite of all his grand kids, it is hilarious!

One on those last weeks at church before nursery was impossible with Easton he was so ready to go!
Playing in the sand box is one of Easton's favorite things to do when we go to my parents house!

Golfing

The Saturday before Memorial Day when we went to my family reunion the guys went golfing all afternoon. They had a good time they said until I called wondering when they were going to be done and I kind of got a little upset at them on the phone. It had been a long day for me and the kids were melting down and so was I. Really though they enjoyed golfing and the course they played was fun and pretty from the pictures they took!
Andrew with my brother Spencer, soon to be Brother-in-law Kyle, Brother-in-law Brent, and my Dad. I am glad they all have something they like to go and do together!

Fence

There is a hole in the side fence in the yard here and Easton loves it! He loves that he can see the dogs and everything the neighbors have on the other side of the fence. It is usually the first thing he goes running for when he gets outside! I just love his little personality right now he is so adventurous and learning so much!

He was asking where the dogs went

Memorial Day

We had such a great Memorial Day this year. It was nice to be back in Utah to spend a holiday with our families. Our day was jam packed and a lot of fun! We started off the morning with breakfast with Andrew's family. We had yummy buttermilk pancakes, eggs, bacon, juice, hash browns, and donuts. The kids had a lot of fun playing with their cousins and their nice aunts brought them all sorts of fun things to play with! Ella and Easton both loved the bubbles the best!




Easton and Grandma Brown


Easton tried to "play" croquet with Colin and Megan but his idea was to go and steal their balls and mallets and walk away!


Early in the afternoon we headed to the cemetery where all of my grandparents are buried. They just set my Grandpa's stone on his grave the week before so we were excited to see it. It looked great!

We even talked my Grandma Duzett into getting a picture with us!

My family minus my brother and his family.

We then went and saw my Grandpa and Grandma Pond's graves. My Grandpa died before I was born and so every Memorial Day for as long as I can remember we have gone to the cemetery to see his grave. My Grandma died when I was a senior in High School. It is nice to have a day to remember those loved ones who have gone before us and to celebrate their lives and sacrifices!

After we left the cemetery we went to my Grandma Duzetts for a BBQ. It was such a nice day and we were happy since it was warm (it had been in the low 60's all weekend!) The kids enjoyed being pushed around the grass in the car!

Spencer is really good at taking Ella out of her comfort zone.

The food!

My Grandma takes such good care of all of us and especially the little great grand kids! She found them their own table and chairs.


My little cousin Olivia had these girls attention all night long! They love to follow her around and she is so darling with them. They were playing telephone in this picture. It was hilarious to watch because a 4 yr old and 2 1/2 yr old don't really get that game yet!


Easton and Caleb were having fun playing peek a boo!


Somebody taught Easton chew and show, not to excited about that one!
