Swimming Fun!!

8 Months Old, tomorrow!!

Like I always say, she is growing so fast!!! It is very bittersweet!!! It is so fun to see her explore and learn new things, but I am so sad that she is not my little infant anymore. We are having so much fun together. She has quite the personality. She is so curious about everything and can't stand to miss a single thing. It is so funny to watch her during Sacrament Meeting. She is searching everywhere, looking at everything. She has starting to walk along the furniture now. I think she will be walking no later than 10 months, but possibly 9 months. She is so beautiful!!! I love her soooooo......much!!!

First Camping Trip

We went on our first camping trip with Hazel this weekend. It was a ward camp out and we went with my Mom, Dad and cousin Luke. Hazel was SO good!! She did the funniest thing too. I had just barely opened a Fresca for Luke so it was coming out the top of the can a little bit. We had put it in the drink holder of Luke's camping chair and Hazel was playing on a blanket next to it. Luke and I were putting the water guns away 2 ft away from her. When we turned back around, she had stood herself up on Luke's chair and was sipping the Fresca from the top of his can!!! That girl is so funny! She finds a way to get whatever she wants!! Anyway, we had a lot of fun!!!

Independence Day!!!

Sweet little Hazel!! Her first Independence Day!! I can't believe how fast she is growing!!! It is bitter sweet. She was so much fun this day though!!!
"What is Grampy doing with that thing?" (lawn mower, mowing the lawn)!!!
"Here's a big smile just for you Mom and Dad!"
"Audrey, pictures are fun, you'll see." Audrey and Hazel had a lot of fun going to their first Indenpendence Day parade together and just hangin out!!
Max and Hazel in their own little baby size pool at the mini blow up water park at Grammy and Grampy Bliss' house. They had a lot of fun!!!

Thank you to all of those men and women who have sacrificed, fought and served our country, and continue to do so, so that we can be free!!! Whether we agree or disagree with the war we are in, our fellow men are out there risking their lives, some losing them, for us and others who are God's children and we need to support them!!! Support out troops!!!

Thank you to our Heavenly Father for all he gives us, especially our elder brother, Jesus Christ, who lived and died for us so we may live again!!!

I love Independence Day!! I hope you all enjoyed it!! Thank goodness we are free to do so!!
