unhungry ducks

I think it was a Sunday in May that these pictures were taken, I know it was in May and I am just too lazy to look up the exact date. We met up with Sheldon's sister and her family at the duck park by BYU. We tried to feed the ducks but they were most definitely not hungry at all. I really need to find a park where the ducks will actually eat your bread. Tucker and Claytin still had tons of fun running down the hills and chasing each other around. These kids are too cute!

the Kiddie Pool

Our neighbors bought a little inflatable kiddie pool this summer and the kids have absolutely loved it. These pictures were taken back in May and it has been used many times since then. I love that Tucker is such a water baby. He's never afraid to put his face in and blow bubbles. I had many years of swim lessons growing up and now I'm a pretty good swimmer. So I plan on putting Tuck in swim lessons as soon as he is old enough. Maybe next summer, is 3 old enough?

Avery is such a cute little girl, but she also makes the funniest faces sometimes.

I guess Tucker can make some funny faces too. On a side note, Tucker and Avery sometimes love to scream together when they play outside. We've noticed that Tucker's screams and his voice are higher than Avery's. Avery kind of growls and Tucker does a high pitched squeal, it's pretty funny.

Thank goodness for lots of fun summer days spent outside! I don't know what we are going to do once winter hits and we are stuck inside again. I guess we'll just have to move to Cali! Someday...

Terrell's Graduation

Way back at the beginning of May we went to my brother's graduation. He was graduating with his Masters in Accounting, crazy I know! He actually is finishing up a few classes, but he will be completely done and venturing into the real world in August. We had lots of fun just hanging out with the family for the weekend.

This is definitely my favorite picture of the day, Tucker unfortunately was tired and not in the best mood. He did not want to be held by anyone but Sheldon. I love his face, so funny.

His face is still kind of grumpy in this, like he hasn't completely forgiven us for what we tried to do.

One of Tucker's favorite things to do, run down a big hill. He now says, "Big Ill." It was a pretty steep hill, even though you can't really tell in this picture.

We went to Terrell's apartment after to party and make some homemade pizza. Tucker enjoyed hanging out with the big kids and Sheldon enjoyed relaxing in the lazy boy. Congratulations (very late) to Terrell!

rEwInD!

I'm so sad to say it has really been almost 2 months since I have posted anything! It's really not my fault though since we have had endless computer problems, which have yet to be solved and so we are still using our 10 year old hand-me-down computer. I look forward to the day when we can buy a nice, new, and fresh computer! So hopefully I will have a short stretch without computer problems and I can go back and update on our fun summer!

Tucker still can't get enough of playing outside.

He's even had a popsicle or two.

Sheldon and I went to a rodeo, yeehaw!

There's definitely been some of this after playing hard.
