June 2018

Here's more of our summer days.

 Going on long scenic walks:

 Enjoying Fourth of July festivities...in June!

Trying new things, not a an of the merry go around.

 And of course enjoying watching Croatia make their way to the finals in Fifa World Cup 2018.

 And then some random fun moments:

May 2018

Much of May was spent waiting for the arrival of little Vivienne. I was on Naomi duty (gladly) but that meant my phone stayed on all day and all night which was always slightly anxiety inducing for me. We all assumed that she would show up weeks early! (Especially with the fact that Jessie went early with Naomi and that Jessie had her first false alarm on April 30). But much to everyone's dismay...especailly Jessicas...she did not come till almost the end of the month. So much of the time spent in May was just spent hanging out.

Then finally little Vivienne decided to debut a week after her due date! But we are all so glad she is here and that she is a part of the family!

Vivienne coming also meant Mimi got to come hang out for a couple days too!

 We also got Beckham a little train set and he loves it!

Easter

Easter this year landed on General Conference, which was nice for a couple reasons. First, General Conference is always so inspiring, second I didn't have time to make Easter outfits this year because of our Hawaii trip but it didn't end up mattering because not church and third it gave us lots of time to enjoy the Easter Bunny's gifts.

We were also able to go to Papa Joe and Great Grandmother's house later in the day and let the littles enjoy an Easter Egg hunt together. 

And other moments in April:
