We finally cut his hair!

Well I loved Aiden's hair long. I don't care what anyone else thought he looked so stinkin cute! But it was getting to the point were he wouldn't let me brush it because it was so knotty and it hurt to brush. And my grandma kept asking about my little girl so it was time for Aiden to have a new look!












Good bye surfer look hello super handsome!!! He loves his new haircut. The next day all he could talk about what his new haircut! So cute I love him!!

Natural Bridge

On our way home from the ward camp out we stopped off at the Natural Bridge. We didn't think it was going to be open but we thought we would try anyways. I was so glad we did because it was beautiful! I finally found some where beautiful in AZ!!! This place was so fun! we first took this hike down some very steep hill and at the end was this beautiful waterfall! I could have stayed there all day! So neat!



They were running down these stairs and scaring the crap out of me!!



Stop let me take a pic and grab onto you before you fall off the cliff!!!





So gorgeous!! In this waterfall were all kinds of little caves. I wanted to explore in them so bad!



What the natural bridge looks like from below





At the bottom playing in the stream





We decided the climb through the cave. It was so fun but so scarey with little kids! There were places were on tiny mistake and they would fall down into the water. No mistakes but it was so scarey for me as the worry wort mother!!




Another steep hill that my kids literally ran down and I had to hold onto them for dear life!!



Inside the cave we just climbed up one steep area and now we were trying to find another safe way up.



We were down there where those people are. This place was so cool!

My kids loved this place!! Emma kept asking all week if we could come back here!



Getting ready to climb up some more!

This place was so cool! I cant wait to go back. This time without any kids so I don't have to worry about them so much!!!

Ward campout

Ok I must warn you that all the pictures are out of order. If I was a true blogger I would fix them and make it right. But honestly I have time to just throw them out for everyone to see please forgive me!!

Our AWESOME friend Dan rigged this swing from 2 very high trees, for the kids to have fun swing rides on. It looked like fun I totally wanted to do it!










Kael doing no hands all the kids were scared at first but then they didnt want to get down!








Dan in the very high tree getting it ready for the swing


My Kael always has to find some sort of creature and this was their frog Freddie that Kael had found and tormented all day (:


Out of order but the winners of all the 3 legged races in the kids category

The tug of war was really fun!





Kael ended up getting a rope burn from the tug of war ouch!


There, right there, that is when the lovely burn happened! (:

His frog Freddie again, don't worry we let it go

You might have noticed there are no pics of our little Mylee well my awesome,wonderful, pretty,sweet, great sister kept her at home!! I know she is the best!! I love Mylee but it was so nice not having to watch her 24/7 or her her cry at me or do any of that baby stuff! (Can you tell I am over babies? You have no idea!) We had such a great time cooling off up North and having such a fun time with friends! It was great. Now if only the wonderful weather that we had up ther would follow us down here!

Melanoma

Well back in the day I had skin cancer and I should have been tested ever 6 months from that point on. Well I am a horrible patient I will not go to the doctor unless I am dying or I have to because of a baby. I just kept having the feeling that I needed to get my moles checked out so I finally thought I will make an appointment and go. I showed her the ones I thought were bad and they turned out to be fine and she then looked at my back and found one that looked bad and did a biopsy on it.

This is what the biopsy looked like don't mind the fat back shot (:

Well the biopsy came back bad and so they sent me to a dermatologist and he took a bigger biopsy of it. I have to say at the time of the biopsy I was bending over holding Mylee on my lap who was kicking and screaming, meanwhile trying to hold still and be brave (I am such a wimp). I do not like back shots! They hurt like crazy! Well that one came back cancerous. So I had to go in again for them to take a big spot off my back. It was the day before school started and my mom was able to watch my kids for me and my dad took me and I got yet another shot in my back and felt allot of stretching and pulling and then stitching . This was the end result...

This was the day I got my stitches out it healed really nice and they were able to get it all out. From now on I will go in every 6 months no matter what. I am grateful to our Heavenly Father for that still small voice, don't ever ignore it. (:

Kael and Emma started School

Well we got our MAC back so I can update my blogging a little bit. I am only a month late but what ever. Emma started preschool this year and absolutely loves it! She goes everyday except for Wednesdays for 3 hours a day. Let me just say that for me it is a little bit of heaven on earth!!! I love it, she loves it it cant get any better! Her teacher is Mrs. Helton and she just loves her. I have to admit that I have not been a super blogger lately I don't know what it is I just have been so busy that I am literally running from one thing to another so there is not enough time to take pics.







This is Emma getting ready to go to class on her first day. She is so excited and nervous all at the same time.


I just think she is to cute!!!


Her first day of school outfit! I love it!



I am a horrible mother! We were practically late to Kael's first day of school because they decided to make changes and get rid of allot of parking and it was just so crazy!! My little guy is in First grade this year his teacher is Ms. Woolhouse and we love her so far! I am very blessed to have Kael he never gets in trouble at school he always gets 100 percent on his tests and his assignments. He tries so hard to be a good kid! He actually got student of the month for August and we are so proud of him!! He is such a wonderful little boy!! Kael we are so proud of you and we love you so much!!!
