Ella's Preschool Graduation and First day of new Preschool

Ella attended the Alta High School Preschool program last year. She loved it! She learned so much and loved her teachers. We were going to have her go back since it is an awesome preschool, but then we moved farther away so we decided to switch to a preschool closer to our house. That way she could make friends in the neighborhood. She has loved her new class and new teacher. We also do a carpool with a couple of her friends which I love! Here are some pictures of her graduation and then her first day:

So cute! She got to wear a real graduation hat with a tassle that said 2011.


Ella and her teacher Hillary!

First day of school! Posing of course!

Cute Ella bug!

Can't wait to go to school with her friends!

Busy Summer

I haven't really had time to post for a while so here I go. We had a fun and busy summer visiting family, swimming, going to parades, going to see Little Mermaid, moving to a new house and neighborhood, etc.

Ella is so tricky climbing a tree.


Cute girl!

I love my little man. He is still mommy's best friend. Love it!

Holden and Grandma Keri. He has the funniest faces!

Holden, Grandma Keri, and Grandpa Sheldon. Wished we lived closer to them.

Busy Summer Continued

Best brother and sister. They love playing together.

Ella posing once more, but this time I think she had to go potty.

Nothing better then swimming on a hot day!

Ella is quite the poser.

Holden thinks he's a dog with a ball in his mouth.

Family Pictures 2011

Oh the adventures of getting family pictures of our little family. My wonderful friend Angela takes our pictures for us, but it comes with a task of getting Ella to cooperate! We kept talking to Ella about pictures a few days before we got them to get her prepared. She was all excited and told us she was going to be so good and smile. Then on the way to get them she of course fell asleep. She eventually got to be ok, but we couldn't watch her take the pictures of her by herself. Then she had to pick where we would take some family pictures. She is so funny about getting her pictures taken. I'm hoping she grows out of it soon and Holden doesn't do the same! Thanks again to my friend Angela for being patient with my little family. I know it is not easy.
