Sofia's Pool Party

Sofia will be 6 on the 29th. She's always wanted a pool party and this was her lucky year!
She only invited girls her age and they had a very good time.







Hazel was the only "little" girl at the party.



The only boy at the party- he was done being surrounded by a lot of 5-7 year old girls!

 Sofia got so many new toys, she has had so much fun playing with the.






Best part of her party was when some of the girls were singing 22 by Taylor Swift.. these girls got a long way to be 22, and hopefully they stay good friends so that when the time comes they celebrate each others 22!

2 girls and a bubble bath.





My girls love house sitting Nana and Tata's house!

Picture Day

Sofia likes wearing her school uniforms... except for picture day.
Her choices were very limited, but she found a way to look adorable!

Labor Day 2013

It's finally September, Sofia's birthday month!! We started this month the most perfect way ever- going to my in-law's cabin for Labor Day weekend. Sofia loves going to the cabin, and still thinks it's her cabin. It's a little/long drive but my girls love it. And I do too.


On Saturday we stood in the corner of Winslow Arizona.. you know, just like The Eagles sang it in one of their most famous songs:
"Well, I'm a standing on a corner
in Winslow, Arizona
and such a fine sight to see" 






I love this picture of Hazel- she's advertising her state!




Hazel makes a mullet look good!


After Winslow, we drove to Chocolate Falls. This was my favorite part of the trip!







Arizona sure knows how to give us perfect sunsets.





Sunday we went to The Petrified Forest. It was BEAUTIFUL.








And on Sunday, we met up with my sister at Snowflake Temple.

I love this man.


We're so happy it's September. I think we're all ready for the cooler weather, and Sofia's birthday!
