Summer is almost done :o(

How sad that school starts next week and our staying out all day long is almost over. Noah and Emma are really looking forward to school, Matt on the other hand is not as excited! We've been doing a bunch of fun stuff, so here is a lot of pictures of all of it.

Emma has to take a stuffed animal every where she goes.
Here is our little family camping. You can't tell in this picture but we are SO dirty :o)
Here are our awsome neighbors. We had a blast with them. For going camping with 6 kids, and no one went to the ER I'd say we did really well. (I know that Matt and I aren't the tallest people in the world but man look how short we are:o)

I had to put this one on because if you know Owen you know how rare it is to see him clean!! So this is on here just so every one can see that it does happen... just not often!
Noah climbing again, he is getting the hang of it.
Libbie and Owen looking at a train. It is really far away but the kids love to look for it.
Here are the kids camping. This was about 10:30 at night. Libbie was tired but Owen who needs no sleep was still ready to go!

The kids love their sand box and now it is even better! We found blue sand at the store and it is a big hit. Just this morning Matt and I found blue sand in our bed, oh well it's still cool.
Here is a close up.
Libbie getting ready for a big swim. She looks like she should be in the olympics:o)
Matt has been paint balling with some guys from our apartments. Round two is Monday! Just to let you know it took a lot for me to get them to stand here for a picture. I think they thought that they were too manly to pose, but they are nice and let me get one picture for the blog :o)
Here is Owen just being a boy. He loves to drive his little truck in the back of his big one...So cute.

Here is Libbie holding Hannah our new little baby.

The kids at the parade.
Matt was able to baptize my nephew Jared. It was so neat to be there, and the kids thought it was pretty neat to watch their Dad baptize their cousin.

We were worried that Nick would have a hard time on the trip but as the picture shows he was very relaxed and happy on the drive! As long as that dog is with his family he is always happy.
