I was out checking the light back in early July before I was going to take some photos of our friends and got these shots of Jane.  She has declared herself a Bug Scientist.  It's very cute, she has a little collector box and has even taken bugs to bed.  (She also thinks you get bed bugs from having shoes on the bed, and colored Colin's sheet with a marker in an attempt to give him bed bugs, hmm. . . .  )  I am not sure what mess is on Jane's hand, so hard to keep up with the mess! 

 

She was being very cute and talking to her bug.
And sometimes I wish I had a little sign for Jane that said "she dresses herself AND she only just turned 4!" Since she is so tall, people can be thrown off by her bad behavior, and she does come up with some amazing get ups.  The above matches because it is all cherries, and it was actually pretty cute.

  Below, a shot of Kate on my back.  We got a great new hiking backpack from phil&teds (of course!).  It comes with a little mirror so you can check on the little one.  Kate was a super good girl, just hung out on my back through my photographing.  She can get a very serious face. 

 
\I took some photos of some of our oldest friends from college.  Utah is a fun place and a Mormon cross-roads, meaning we get to see lots of old friends.  Sadly, I do not have photo proof for all of them, but we always love seeing old friends!  We had such a good time hanging out with them, such fun! 

Sweet little sisters!  Their oldest daughter is just Colin's age.  We want to forbid them to marry to bring them together.  

 

 

 

Cute little twins!  They loved the raspberries!
