Where has the time gone?

OK so updating hasn't been going well!!
It has been a hectic crazy month!

We got to watch the Angel Moroni go up on top of the temple. It was pretty amazing. Emily had colored a picture in primary of the Angel Moroni, and proceeded to yell at the statue, "Hey Moroni, Hey ANGEL MORONI!!! Look its a picture I drawed of you!!" It was pretty cute. We also got to take pictures of the kids standing pretty close to the figure! It really was unbelievable.

We then got to go camping up at Redfish Lake for a week. It was a nice break from life. We got to see a fox on our cabin's front porch, twin fawns and their momma, and three bucks playing in the meadow, all in one night! The kids enjoyed playing in the lake, even though it was freezing! They also had a great time with their cousins. Emily got to ride in a paddle boat, which she really enjoyed- although she wanted to help "paddle" the boat. Caleb really just enjoyed getting as dirty as humanly possible.

Here are a couple of other cute shots of the kids. Emily is in her matching jammies with Crispy, and Caleb is showing off his suave-ness with his hat and sunglasses.

Update

Here are some new pictures, I am going to try and update this a little more often ;)

Caleb is loving being outside and following his big sis around, so far she doesn't mind either.....but that time will come soon enough! He is quite the little ham, and has very flirtatious eyes!!! He has started climbing all over everything, and is getting pretty good at it too! He had to have his cheek super glued together a week before his birthday, lets just say he got in a fight with a table, and the table won. But it is looking pretty good!

Emily is getting ready to start swimming lessons, she also loves being outside. She has been practicing the initial sounds of words..She is quite the kid. She has also been enjoying working in the garden, and perfecting the "look." We have a frog living by Gram & Grandpa's house and she has been interested in listening to it, and not so much in finding it. She really is my girly girl.

Happy Birthday to Caleb

Caleb had his birthday on Saturday! We had a nice little BBQ, and he enjoyed his cake. Here are a few pictures.

My how time flies!

Well life has once again been busy.

We went to the Zoo with Grandpa & Grandma Rauch & Aunt Heather- We had a great time, and really enjoyed seeing all of the animals.
We have been watching the temple grow and change. Emily and Caleb both have temple rocks, and we are trying to take pictures every time we go over so we can watch not only how the temple changes, but also how the kids change. Soon we will go over for a picnic and watch the Angel Moroni go up on the steeple! How exciting!

Emily is still in tumbling, but says she can't wait for swimming lessons to start. She is getting so big, and squirty, and smart. Recently she helped Grandpa and Grandma in the garden by planting potatoes and peas. This weekend we are planting fruit trees, and the rest of the garden. She is also growing tomatoes and peppers and has been enjoying watching them grow.

Caleb is up to seven teeth-and is getting even more squirty- must be a family trait!! He is trying his hardest to run- I am sure it won't take long to get that down! We went to the sturgeon hatchery and he loved looking at all of the fish- especially from under ground. We are also getting ready to celebrate his birthday in two weeks- my how time flies!
