Okay...Finally!

Alright...yes,we are guilty of not posting pics for awhile.  Here's a compilation of pics [180+] from Alabama, through the move, all the way through yesterday.  Enjoy!


 Amelia REALLY Gets into her food...

 Addyson and Amelia playing...more and more each day.

 ....uhg!  "Wonder Pets, Wonder Pets, we're on our way...."

 Addyson and the I-Pad...

 Here are the Princesses sharing the I-Pad...

 This is called multi-tasking...

 Ahhh....peace at last!

 Pizza can fix nearly any problem in our house...

 She literally partied her heart out until she dropped...the 'milkers.

 Team TV watching....
 It was a rough night...hence the uncorrdinated outfits.  But morning snuggle time with Kim is always nice for the girls.

 ...back to the pizza.

 Same for Addyson...
 Addyson taking her friends for a stroll...

 In the category of living legends...if you ever look up the Women Air Service Pilots [WASPs], the gal to Kim's right is a former WASP and THE person who got Congress to declassify the program [from WWII] and recognize their accomplishments -- her name is Deanie Bishop.  She was part of the final week of ACSC as part of the "Gathering of Eagles" program.

Kim and I at teh ball...

 This is what I saw when I flew into Utah at the beginning of June...

 Come on...who doesn't like Farr's Icecream...

 Happiness...

 [????]  just Amelia...

 Amelia started bringing all the stuffed animals to Kim to 'hold onto'...

 ....here she is emptiing the rack.

 Bringing more friends over...

 Walking with a sense of purpose...

 On the splash pad at Hill AFB...

 There they go...

 Amelia, making friends...

 ...running around in circles, running around, having some fun!

 Bonding at lunch...
 The ride to St George with the girls...and getting a snack!

 Amelia and Kim hetting their snuggle on after the ride...

 In the process of moving...visiting relatives --- > but their's always Backyardigans!

 OWG!!  The biggest sandbox ever!

 The girls loved this...

 Here they are going to work...

 Working [plotting] together...

 Got TEAM!

 [action shot] Amelia running to Grandma Futey...

 ...oops!  Down she goes...

 She's fine though...
 For those who know...the Birthday saga continues...

 Amelia: hmmm, where's grandpa?

 [this was not staged] Hello?
 Reaching for something she should not...

 Nice basket...
 Playing with grandma...

Here's Amelia working Grandpa Futey for food...

 Ahhh the girls....
 Addyson, just hanging out...

 The Princesses playing nicely in St George...

 Here's a shot of Amelia attacking grandpa...

 Yes...this was exciting.  Addyson playing, 'let's puta ll our friends in the dunp truck with grandma.'

 Grandma stacking the friends still...and in the foreground, Amelia launching into a full sprint at grandpa...

 ....another tackle!
 The Princesses...

 Can you read her little mind...?  I want to knock that dump truck over!

 Addyson and grandpa playing nicely...

 Amelia taking a swing at the park....

 We took the girls on a little hike...

 ...and Addyson REALLY liked to hike...!

 Taking a break...

 Amelia and Kim...

Addyson keeps climbing...

The splashy area in downtown St George...was pretty nice.

Amelia: "I'm unimpressed."

They are soooo cute....

Addyson trucking to plug the leak!

More Wonder Pets...

Amelia!

Addyson!   [nuice blue lips]


A rest before bed....

Look at that face...

Quiet time on the couch...

There's never enough mommie to go around...

Just before we left...all smiles!

Let the adventures continue...

Look at Amelia....she really is driving the cart.

 Okay...now Addyson's in control.

Just sit back and relax...

The birthday saga continues on...

Happy birthday to you!

 Amelia's intrigued...

The Princesses, stalking the neighbors in Farmington...

Addyson carefully examines the cake...

Let the toys start to flow...

Hmmm...more Wonder Pets.

 Amelia...doing what she does best ----. kicking back.

She loves her naps...

Hmmm...what's in here?

O - HI - O !!!  At the park...

This is the park two houses down and across the street...a great setup.

Addyson, making her way up the ramp of the playground...

Hi there...

I see you...

Amelia and Cendrine collecting rocks....

....and more rocks.

 Note the rocks on the becnh next to Kelli...

Kim cleans rocks off one side of the bench....while Amelia adds rocks to the other side.

Amelia...yes, adding rocks to the seat of the rocking horse.

 ...down she comes.

 Addyson to Amelia: this is water...go ahead and play with it.

 Taking a little break at teh park...

...more climbing.

A girl and popsicle...abd duck.

More popsicle...

This is photographic proof of bad parenting...the girls [and I] are out in the rain [which turned into a thunderstorm] --- > which we came in for of course.

 They had a great time...

 So many things to say here....all I will mention, is look at Amelia wearing my shoes.

 Again, never enough Kim to go around...

 ...still reading...

Dresses...wearing these today!

 More dinosaurs...

 ...and a medical kit!

The girls were captivated...

They really loved the med kit...odd given Addyson HATES doctors.
