Singing w/Ashlyn

This is Ashlyn with Rachel's hat. She loves putting it on. She likes to sing Ring-around-the-roses. And Pat-a-cake. Hope it puts a smile on your face like it does for us. She is so fun!

School Choir

With a little persuation Rachel joined the school choir this year.
Rachel is in 3rd Grade now so, she was able to join the school choir. (Choir is 3rd-6th grades only.)
They had their 1st performance at their school's Veteran's Day Assembly.  Is was alot of fun and she did a great job.  She new every word and action. (She's front and center with the white bow in her hair.) 

Side note:  Aunt Pam helped make these vests when Jenna was in choir!  Thanks Pam!

Busy busy bee!

Ashlyn is a busy girl!

She loves... shoes.

I took these this morning.  She is quick to climb on the table.  We have to make sure not to leave anything on the table.  We used to be able to just push in the chairs so she couldn't get up but now she can pull the chairs out.  So, we have to keep the table clean.

    

Did I mention she gets into everything?  She loves the bathroom, and if we leave the door open she likes to climb up on the toilet or pull all the toilet paper off the roll.  In this case both.

She found Rachel's yarn today too.  She likes to dress-up and wrap things around her neck.  Can you tell?  She keeps me on my toes.

October

Halloween was fun this year. We painted pumpkins one week then carved them just before Halloween. In case you can't tell Garrett is the transformer- Bumblebee, Rachel is Ariel (The Little Mermaid), Alec is the transformer- Optomusprime (sp?). Ashlyn is an adorable pink ladybug.

Did you know I love doing hair. Ashlyn still doesn't have much hair but I made it work. I think it turned out really cute.

Alec started soccer this year. His team is the Orange Fireballs! He is the one in the center with the great stride. He has decided he likes to be a defender. He didn't like running up and down the field so much. He takes after his Dad and is a great defender!

Highlights for September!

The Carpenter Family Reunion! Same time, same place, every year! Gotta love it!
Thanks to Duane's family for a great time!

Sawdust dig! It's tradition!

Rachel named herself camp photographer. She did a good job, don't you think?

Ninja Alec! Watch out here comes Garrett!

Ashlyn was into scrunching her nose.

Nice one Uncle Doug! Uncle Don of course!

Crazy kids!

Catch-up! August

Ok here I go. I am attempting to catch you all up on the Fam.

Highlights for August!

Davis County Fair of course.

1st Day of School!

Ashlyn's 1st B-day!

It took her a minute but I think she liked her cake! What do you think?

Alec's 7th B-day!

Wanted to go to the Roy Aquatic Center with his cousins. Thanks for coming Gary, Rex, Kaylee, Kylee! We are glad the Carpenter's live close but miss the Zimmerman's.
