Little Rock Climbers

The kids had fun climbing on the rocks during our trip to the Morrill Ranch over the weekend. While Robbie was climbing up he kept saying over and over to himself, "You can do it, Robbie! You can do it, Robbie!" Ari couldn't bear to be left out and screamed until we let her try it, too.

Fish Story

A conversation with Robbie today about the salmon steak that was thawing in our kitchen sink.

Robbie: Did you cut off his mouth?

Mommy: No, someone else cut it off before it got to the store.

Robbie: Did you cut off his eyes?

Mommy: No, someone cut those off, too, before it got to the store.

Robbie: Is it so he won't look at us and he won't talk to us?

Mommy: Something like that.

First Day

So, this was a few weeks ago, but here's Robbie on his first day of pre-school. His school is not too far from our house and seems to be a good one. He seems to be enjoying it and doing well! Here he is in his fun school room.

A Last Tribute to Summer

Its been a great summer! I just wanted to post a few photos of summer happenings that didn't make it into the blog. Yeah! The Jones family moved to Utah from Texas! Here's Michael, my sister Havilah, baby Ronan, Gareth, and Ruth at Ronan's baby blessing.

Robbie and Nate on a hike to Donut Falls.

Nope, not as big as a gorrilla yet. Robbie at Hoogle Zoo.

Nate and Robbie on the pirate ship at Lagoon. This was his favorite ride; he loved screaming and putting his hands a tiny bit up into the air. This used to be my favorite ride, too. Funny that now it makes me want to puke.

It was SO fun having Aunt Andrea along with us at Lagoon. Robbie seemed to enjoy having her and Mom and Dad all to himself with no pesky little sister in tow (she stayed with Grandma and Grandpa Morrill for the day).
