We are alive I promise!

So, we are just getting off to a slow start. Hopefully I can get the hang of this blogging and do it more often. We have had a lot going on though. Thanksgiving then Christmas -- then a trip to Vegas, then sickness struck our house and we have just never got online to update! But here are some pics to share randomly from this summer of the kids and our vacation.


Trevor and grant eating ice cream at multnomah falls

Connor had his gone before anyone else -- our little ice cream monster!

When will kids learn that you have to go around the cone? She finally got it. ha ha.

Parker and his million dollar smile

ha. ha. funny pic.
Can anyone really give someone else a bite especially a child
without sticking their tounge out too? Honestly?

Here we are at Multnomah falls in Oregon. The fall was so beautiful -- we walked up pretty high and it was an adventure for the kids. It just made mom queasy cause she is scared of heights. It was a blast though.




Parker, Connor, and Mackenzie -- except grant who is on daddy's back in the hiking backpack -- he loved that thing -- he didn't want to get out of it - so funny
















Our little angel ~ Kenzie


Grandma and Grandpa Burton's flowers are a great spot to take pictures or to just smell the flowers!


Kenzie had so much fun posing in the flowers and by the pond.







She is growing up so fast. I have a little girl now and not a baby girl. She is our little princess. She definitely defines the word angel. She is such a blessing to have as a daughter. We love her sweet personality and with only brothers she is definitely the ruler of the roost!
