Sugar Pine Railroad

Reagan would you please look at the camera so we can be done...

Thank You Rae-Rae.

Lauryn taking some pics of Mom & Dad



Where's Mom? Oh, there she is in the back.
The girls got a chance to get on the engine and see the fire down below and check out the inside of the engine #10.
Enjoying some of the scenery from the back open log caboose.
The sound of the horn was a bit loud for Reagan. Reagan enjoying the prize at the end of the train ride....Sugar! It was so funny watching her open it and eat it. It was like Christmas for her.

This was her happy dance that she did it!


We stopped on the side of the road to let the girls see the canyon. They were so worried that Jeff was going to drive off the edge of the road. Ashtyn was on the look out to let dad know if he was approaching the edge. I guess their view point of the road from the backside wasn't good.

Big Sundae Treat!

We went to Hanford where they have an ice cream shoppe that has been in business for a long time. It belongs to someone who owns a dairy, so the ice cream is homemade and fresh! It was fun for the girls. (We are trying to spend time with Dad since we (the girls) will be gone for 2 weeks.


Here we are...

The girls could barely hold still to take this picture. (I don't know why my flash didn't seem to work. I must have taken the picture to fast.)
We all want a cherry!!
Dad finishes off the 7 extra large scoops sundae.
Mom trying to keep Lo warm after the ice cream.
Ashie and Rae, can you believe how long Ash's hair has gotten. All she wants to do is cut it off. I'm not ready to do it yet. I'm trying to work up to that (for the last 4 months)!

Things Rae loves....

Spending time with "bamma",having a good time,

hanging out in my playhouse,
blowing bubbles,
jumping on the tramp (however I'm sitting right now)
and flipflops!
Just to give you a glimsp into my life, here's what I did this week:

colored permanent marker on a quilt "bamma" made,

poured my own applejuice, and spilled most of it on the table, chairs, & floors,

played in the toilet and emptied the water onto the floor,

squeezed a bottle of lotion onto the rug,

got my own bottled water from the outside fridge and left the door open,

pull fun things out of the kitchen trash,

and emptied a box of Kleenex in the bathroom.

I try to keep my mom on the move. She really doesn't have enough to do around here.

Summer Fun with Cousins

We had a great time at Aunt Jill's for a couple days swimming lots!! The girls love to swim, and they all do it pretty well. Ashtyn has come a long way this year with her swimming. Teagan can't seem to keep from plugging her nose. Lauryn is like a little mermaid. Her long flowing red hair and swims like a fish. Poor Reagan only really gets in when I get in, or she napping. The girls had lots of fun with the cousins. Thanks Aunt Jill for the swims.

Lauryn just had to have this swimsuit,

mostly because her cousin, Kylee, has the swimsuit.

But it does good cute.

Teagan looks cute in her suit too! Kylee

also has this swimsuit. They will be begging her

to wear the one that matches their suit.

Ashie looks cute in her swimsuit. She is growing so fast. Ashie, Lo, & Madison (cousin)

Teagie & Conner (the goofball) He makes everyone laugh.Aunt Jill and some of the girls. Ashie is not a fan of looking at the camera.

Our Mermaid Lauryn.

Ashie, Macie (Lo's friend), Lo, Teagie, Madison.

They jumped in like this a hundred times at least.
The Goofball! Ian
Group picture.
Wait, now it's a group picture. Ian

came up out out the water.

Check this out. This is Jake Jill's older son. The boys were

taking turns doing their jump tricks into the pool.

Lauryn's 1st Golf Tournament

Here is Lauryn before she tees off, in front of the Belmont Country Club sign. Doesn't she look cute!! She is amazing, she doesn't even get nervous. She just does it. I love that about her.

Lauryn(Lo) with her Grandparents that are way into golf.

A picture of Lo teeing off.

Lo loves to ride rather I should say, drive the golf cart. She loves it. I think she thinks she is 16 already. Oh no, I am in trouble.

Lo and her swing again. I love the way her tongue sticks out when she is really concentrating. She does it with everything, even when she colors.

Lo and her daddy, Ahhhhh... It was a real bonding time together for them. I can tell that Lo loved the attention



Lauryn played in a Grandma & Granddaughter tournament along with her Dad and Papa. She did a great job!! She played all 18 holes for the first time. She kept the ball in the fairway and hit well off the tee and the grass. She was completely worn out and (I think) a little delirious afterwards. She loved it.

Golf Camp

Here are the girls in Grandma and Papa's golf cart on their way to their last day of golf camp. (Just the older two, the younger 2 are along for the ride.)

Lauryn has a great swing. Golf seems to come very natural to her. She doesn't even take a practice swing. She just gets up there and rips it.

Teagan loves to hang out with the other girls in her group. She takes a swing and then pauses for a drink or a chat. She's getting the hang of it. The girls were split on the course and it was hard watching both of them with only one cart. It was like a comedy show. We would keep missing Teagan's swing everytime we left to watch Lauryn and then come back to see Teagan, we had already missed it.

Reagan was running around all over the place and being very loud (which is a no-no on the golf course). Plus she rarely looks at the camera.

I just thought is picture was cute of her with her tongue out. She is so funny and keeps us laughing all the time.

This is Ashie practicing perfecting her swing while we wait and watch the girls.
