So much fun.....

Up in Arco visiting my sister. Zachary, Tate (cousin) and Aria. They had a blast playing in the back yard.

We all went to the Mackey reservoir and played in the water. Sam was pretty tuckered out when we headed home.

Zachary's first hair cut. He really needed one.

He actually held still quite well.

My handsome boy.

Samuel took swimming lessons at the Smithfield Rec. Center. He had so much fun. I think he wore out the teachers but he did learn a lot and now can put his head under water with out freaking out.

Zach loves putting hats on his head. He sure is a cute cowboy.

Aria has only fallen asleep once at the table and I was able to get a picture of it.

We had the Porter Family reunion at the end of July. This is Samuel and his cousin Corrine. He love playing in the pool, going down the slide, playing with the cousins and sleeping in a tent with daddy.

Aria and Zach love the water and especially if they can stand up in it. (Porter Reunion)

Zach got tuckered out so cousin Kaylee rocked him to sleep. How sweet! (Porter Reunion)

In the pool with daddy. (Porter Reunion)

We had the Rasmussen Family Reunion the first week end in August. We went to the Riverdale resort and had a blast. The kids stayed in the mineral pool the whole time as it was heated. This is Zachary and daddy.

Aria and Mommy.

One night of the family reunion, Travis set up everything and we watch a movie out side on a projector. It was a lot of fun!

Samuel going down the slide at Riverdale resort. Stacy (Lori's boyfriend) is with Sam but you can't see him. I don't know how many times he went down with Samuel. Thank you Stacy!

Samuel is getting braver and jumping to mommy as Zach watches in his floaty.

Samuel got even braver and jumped off the diving board with mommy. He said it was fun but didn't want to do it again.

The first night of the reunion we had a BBQ and played bingo. Samuel and Taya got bingo at the same time.

Still playing bingo. We had lots of prizes; therefore, we had lots of bingo games.

Travis was a trooper and cooked everyone's meat. Thanks Babe.

Samuel's 4th birthday finally came. Thank goodness for mom because every day he'd ask if it was his birthday. He invited G & G Porter over for the evening. We had taco salad (his choice) and cup cakes with balloons. He got a butterfly net and a bug catcher kit from them and plays with it every day.

Samuel got Lego's from mom and dad, P.J.'s from Aria and Zach and lots of money from Great G & G Spackman, Great Grandma Welch and G & G Rasmussen. The thing that made me a proud mom was that he wanted to pay his tithing right away. Happy birthday son!

We have had such a fun summer and hoping to get a few more fun outings in before the good weather is gone.
