Soccer time!

We went camping and swimming at Crystal Hot Springs with Aunt Deann and Shayla and Jayden. Here we all are roasting our dinner.

And here we are swimming... (thanks to Deann for sharing the rest of these pics, otherwise we would only have the above pics!)_ 

And more of dinner time...

And lighting marshmallows on fire...

So we had Brooklyn's bag all packed and ready to go and somehow managed to leave it home, so Brooklyn had to wear mom's jacket.

More swimming...

Posing by the waterfalls.

So Bryson saw this older guy and started saying "grandpa grandpa" and reaching out to him so he held Bry and then Bry didn't want to leave him. It was pretty cute.

 We had lots of fun!

Silly Bry.

Brooklyn and Bry showing off the fun things Aunt Julie got them from Disneyland.

Brooklyn did a cheer clinic at FJH. She remembered all her cheers and dance really well!

Bry wanted to be in the pictures too (of course.)

She even got pom-poms!

Some yummy cookies I made.

Brooklyn played soccer again this season. She loved it and did really well!

Bry watching "his" show. (That usually means Elmo, a show with a dog, or Dora.)

Cute messy boy.

Bry decided this was a good place to sit, with Daddy's shoes on too.

Bry rocking with one of Brooklyn's headbands on.

Playing at Chuck E. Cheese with our friends Skye, Jack and Tacy.

Bry loved this ride, he didn't want to get off, and he kept trying to give Barney a five since his hand was up.

Bry making a silly face.

Swimming with Brooklyn's friend Erin.

Grandpa took everyone in the family out to eat at Golden Corral to celebrate Grandpa working at L-3 for 30 years!

Bry being silly.

September

We went to the train park by our house and rode the fun trains and played on the fun train toys! 

My cute decoration I pained a while ago, but I decided to get rid of it, so I took a picture, so I could remember my amazing skills...

 I just think Bry looks so cute when he puts daddy's hat on backwards.

Bry LOVES Elmo, so he had to get an Elmo shirt. He wants to wear it all the time.

 We visited Kyle's grave on his due date (Sept. 19) He would have been 4 this year. =( We sure miss him.

 Showing the cute owl she made.

Cute Bry trying on other people's shoes.

Bry likes to drag his feet when we walk Brooklyn to school...this day I put new socks on him (mistake) and he makaged to make holes in the toes of both before we got home.)



Being his cute self.

Brooklyn at her soccer game. She scored three goals and played great!

Brooklyn holding the fabulous "First Day of Kindergarten" sign her mom made. (At least Brooklyn looks cute, even if the sign doesn't.)

Brooklyn's second day of school outfit.

Brooklyn's third day of school outfit. (She always wants to post, and Bryson usually wants to be in the pic too.)

Fourth day of school (I think...)

Brooklyn was trying to figure out how to say "read" in past tense so she told me-"I already rode that book." I thought it was a good try. :) If you think about it, it is kind of confusing that read is the past tense for read...



Showing off the cute bracelets she made.

Curtis just asked Brooklyn what she learned in school today and she said "I learned that Cooper and Sawyer have a crush on me." Curtis told her that is not why she goes to school. :)

 Being sillies.

We ran a 1 mile fun run as a family for Brooklyn's school. We had fun, got some exercise, and we got matching T-shirts.

We went to Brooklyn's school Carnival. I had to sit at a booth but my wonderful sisters came and helped me and helped with Brooklyn and Bryson!!! (Curtis was at the BYU football game I won tickets to, after I had already committed to help with Brooklyn's school carnival.)

Brooklyn showing off her glitter skin stickers (it is a purple bat.) Emily also got her and Bry a goldfish. One lived a whole day and the other is still alive to this day. (Someone call Guinness quick!!!) She loved the Carnival and had tons of fun!

Brooklyn in line at the carnival. Thanks Julie for taking this, my phone completely died and I couldn't take any pictures at the carnival! :(

Bry posing for some pics with daddy.

Brooklyn playing a game with mom...and showing off her beautiful Halloween decorations.

Brooklyn did a wonderful job at the Primary Program! Grandma and Grandpa Davis and Emily all came to see her. She had her whole part memorized and said the last part all alone because she was the only in her class that had the whole thing memorized! She also sang her best, we are so proud of her!

October

Just chilling out.

Last night Brooklyn was teaching us about pumpkins and she was holding some little ones, and she said "...some pumpkins come from pumpkin patches, but these pumpkins came from Harmons..." hehe :)
She also remembers what she learns in school and at church really well. She can teach an entire family night lesson for us based on her lesson on Sunday (and she often does.)   She is learning lots in school and loves it! (Even though she will tell you she doesn't because some boys like her, but I really think she likes the attention, who wouldn't? :) 
A couple times ago at soccer one of Brooklyn's team mates lost the drink to her straw and was really sad about it, so Brooklyn took the straw off her drink and gave it to her because she was sad.  (She though of this all by herself.) It is times like those that make me a proud mom! What a good little girl we have. 

Bryson is growing everyday. He finally went to nursery on Sunday and didn't cry or scratch anyone, he just played. This was a historic day!! He also loves Elmo, dogs, cars and Dora. He is funny though, because he won't say dog, or car, he will say ruff ruff for dogs and vroom vroom for cars (and zzzzz for sleep) but he won't the word. I think it is cute though. :)

We sure love our sweet kids!
