Idaho State Fair
The Eastern Idaho State Fair
RJ got on and rode this train all by himself. He is getting so big!
RJs favorite ride at the fair was the carousel.
RJ, Jess, and Ellie in front of the big ferris wheel.
By the end of the fair day the kids were exhausted! RJ just wanted to be pushed around although the two didn't fit that well!
One last ride before heading home.
St. George
St. George
This was when we went to St. George during July.
Just watching TV as a family.
Shortly after RJ went upside down in Grandma's pool. Luckily it was only for a second, but still scary!

Las Vegas vacation
The Bellagio is Jessica's favorite place on the strip.
Eating at Maggiano's. Yum!
Ellaria Phoebe
One thing about Ellie is she is a very happy baby! She is always smiling or laughing and brightening up our day! We are so grateful to have this happy girl!
Rarely do we get a smile right into the camera.
He loves his sister so much!
Ellaria Phoebe
Our little Ellie girl has been getting so big we can hardly believe she is nearly 6 months old!
She needs a little assistance, but is pretty much sitting up all by herself.
She is learning how to eat solid food.
She likes to play outside with RJ. This is her in her new sun bonnet that her mom made.
Just hanging out laughing with the boys!
RJ is the best at getting her to laugh and smile for sure.
They are pretty good buddies. Don't they look like brother and sister?
Best of all, Ellie is a total daddy's girl and loves to give her Papa lots of smiles when he gets home from work.
Other Summer Fun
Rhett LOVES his SUV and it's easy to tell by the care he puts into it. Even RJ likes to keep the SUV looking nice!
Doing his best to scrub off the sprinkler spots!
It's September 11th and already the Halloween stuff is going up. RJ and Jessica love Halloween! Rhett tolerates it.
Working on the yard
We've been working on our yard since we moved in. We'll probably have it to our liking as soon as it's time to move! That's okay though because half the fun is just working on it.
More of the yard. That's our garden in the back of this picture. It's been producing pretty good this year.
Here's our patio we love! We still need to fill fine sand into the cracks, but it is basically done. Jessica made all this patio furniture all by herself! Isn't she amazing?! I can say that since this is her husband writing this post.
