PICTURE OVERLOAD!

We have been taking a LOT of pictures while we have the opportunity to be with our grandparents!

In the past few days we...

... had a rainy, quick walk around temple square

 ...went to Eric's soccer game

 ...(un)styled Papou's hair

 ..took a few pictures for no reason

...took only one outdoor pic on Temple Square

 went to Thanksgiving Point Farm Country for preschool

 Papou helped the girls get up on the ponies

 while Papou and the girls went for a hay ride, Charlie had a great time poking his fingers in the bench

inside the little soil-to-market place at the farm.  It is so cute.

this weekend we....

... participated in the Race for the Cure.  A favorite tradition every year!

... played and played some more

 ...ate spaghetti for Roland's birthday (mmmm!)

... had cake and ice cream

 ...and, celebrated mothers and the opportunity to be together! :)

The Birthday Boy...

Aren't I lucky? Doesn't he have a great smile? Happy Birthday Roland! Love you!

the fun continues

Every time we go to the store with Mamie and Papou they want to get something for the kids.  Sometimes I can talk them out of it, but the kids do get a little spoiled nevertheless.  Eric loves this gun they bought him. 

 Roland is having a great time introducing his parents to joys of modern technology.  In these pics he is showing his dad how to play a game on the iPod touch.  He LOVED it. :)

 Charlie is in heaven with all the attention and he can't get enough of his new blocks.

 Lydie has had so much fun that she couldn't keep her eyes open at the table tonight.  It takes a lot for Lydie to crash like that!  She must be very tired! :)
