How Do You Keep Up?

I don't know how you bloggers do it? It is almost all I can do to take the pictures in the first place. Let alone scrapbook them, and then blogg about them on top of it! So this is us since June.
This is Lydia and I playing doggie bone.

My sister Tierney came out to visit.

This is my rear view crew. With 5 kids now that my brother Dalton has come to stay for a while, This van is bursting at the seams.

Dalton was stung by a wasp. OUCH. And we heard about every painful day!
Aly was bit by a dog the very same day as Daltons wasp sting. Aly was trying to play ninja with a dog at a friends house, the dog was taken by surprise and whipped around and got her top lip. Luckily it only broke the skin in one place and bruised the others. The dog had all its shots so she should be ok in a few days.

This is us trying to get a tick off of Alys head when we went to Deer Creek. Just for your information, do not try to suffocate the tick like we did. All it does is kill the thing, and then you worry about it backwashing into the bite area. You are supposed to just get some tweezers and pinch by the head and pull the sucker off. And it takes some pulling. Russ said that the Doctor pulled up Aly's scalp about a half inch before it finally came off.
This is the actual tick. Tyler has an Eyeclops that you can look at things on the tv with. That chunk of white stuff in the ticks mouth is Aly's scalp. Even after the thing was dead it would not let go and the skin ripped off when the doctor pulled the tick off. Totally Yucky! Wear your bug spray!

This is Tyler and Lydia on Puff at Chuck E Cheese

Here the kids are at the Eccles Dino park in Ogden. They could care less about the dinos, they just like to feed the fish there!

Lydia loves watermellon.

We are on a hike to a waterfall.

This is Dalton and Casey going thru the waterfall.
