Today was the day... 7 years ago.

Here we are 7 years later.

Her head is for sure going to hurt by the end of the day.

She wanted to make sure that her tummy looked cute too. 

July thus far...

We have done quit a bit this month, I thought that I should post them now so that I don't get too behind. 

We have some friends that live in Colorado that sent Sammy this skirt so we had to have a photo shoot so we could send them a picture with her in it. I love this skirt it is so cute. 

We went to a Swedish festival with Colby's sister and family.  It is always fun to find fun little things to go to that are close by. 

Sammy loved the Swedish sparkling cider. 

Face painting.

I was really surprised that she sat still long enough to get her face painted.

They also had a station to make flower crowns.

Cousin Lucy and Sammy

We went to my sister Anna's house and had a water day.

Can you tell Sammy is always way to busy to look at the camera.

Slipping slid.

Colby's sister's family got a boat this year.  We are lucky enough to have gone a few times.  It is such a blast.

 Aunt Megan and Cousin Brody sleeping.

 Cousin Jack.  

I loved his hair in this picture.

Colby trying out the wakeboard.

After he was done.

Sammy loved the boat.  

She didn't like it so much when Mommy or Daddy fell in the water.  She would start to cry. So sad.

My brother Bart was in town from Ohio for about a month.  It was fun, I would just tag along where ever they would go.  This was done at the BYU bookstore. 

Cousin Whitney reading to Sammy

They had all of the Giraffes dancing. 

These two kind of have a love hate relationship.  More love, but you better watch out when Whitney gets this face.  So funny. 

At Temple Square with the cousins. 

Sammy, Whitney, and Kamron

Sammy is people watching.

My sister Laura and her four boys.

Do you remember this from last year when I went to visit my brother Bart in Ohio.  Well we had to get matching dresses again this year since they were in town.  Look at how much they have grown up. 

Sammy saw the ice cream and got really excited.

So sweet

So cute

We had to get his picture so that we could crop his head and put in the picture above. 

Day 1 of Potty Training

 With her big girl underwear

Taking them off

And finally she is without them.  As you can see the day is going rather well. 

If you have any good potty training tips please inform me, I don't know what I'm doing. 

Cousin Jack's B-day Party

Sammy went to her cousin Jack's birthday party the other day.  I think she might of had the time of her life.  To of her favorite things were there. COUSINS and ANIMALS.

Jack's grandpa has a horse and a pony, so all the kids got to have a pony ride.  Sammy thought that was the coolest thing ever.  They also had a bounce house.  She wasn't really sure about that. 

Uncle Shane taking Sammy around on the Pony.  She looks so big.  

 Close up.  Apparently we have gotten into the 4th of July spirit with the Red, White and Blue a little early this year.

She also loves anything with sugar in it.   

These cupcakes were so good.  They were like Cutler's brownie mint cookies but a cupcake.  

Sammy's cousin Emma loved them as well.  

Checking out the horses.  Oh how she loved those horses. 

Swings.  She is ok with playing alone as long as there is something fun. 

She looks so cute in this little car. 

Thanks Jack for the fun Birthday Party.
