Pottery

Josh takes ceramics classes is the evening and he makes some awesome stuff. I hate giving it away but every few months we have to clean out our stock to make way for the new stuff. He makes great bowls and has just gotten the hang of plates.

Thomas

Aunt Bonnie got us tickets to see Thomas at the Heber RR. Charlotte and Hudson didn't know who Thomas is, but loved riding the train.

It was very windy. Hudson looks like he's had enough!

The Zoo

We bought a zoo membership, so we get to go all the time.

Charlotte loves the Merry-Go-Round! Even on freakishly cold days in May!

What do you do with yogurt?

You put it on your head silly!

Summer Rain

Last night there was a huge rain and lightning storm. We all went to stand on the porch to watch. Charlotte couldn't stand it, she just had to be in the rain. I couldn't believe how much she loved it. She got soaked but had so much fun! You can see how much water was coming out of the rain gutter, it was nuts! She is nuts!

Super Dad!

Josh is awesome! He has spent so much time working on my mom's yard to make it garden ready.

Phone Download

I am not really great at remembering to take pictures, luckily my phone catches some of Miss Charlotte.

5/1 - Charlotte loves to watch Annie (Abbey). This is her sitting at the table, eating treats and intently watching her favorite show.

5/3 - Almost as much as Annie, Charlotte loves to watch Michael Jackson videos.

5/7 - Happy Girl

5/12 - Proof that she is a Passey. Nothing better than BBQ potato chips, definetely one of her faves.

5/14 - LOVES ice cream (treats). I have gotten smarter and just removed all the clothes.

5/16 - Lovin' corn. Charlotte loves to eat what we are eating. 1st corn experience and loved every minute of it!

5/21 - Watching Annie, again, with baby and kankie.

5/22 - Cheeeese

6/4 - I had to drop something off at my mom's house the other day. I was out of the car for a total of 2 minutes and I cam back to this. She was so beside herself that she couldn't get out to play.

Tulip Festival

On Monday we went to the Tulip Festival at Thanksgiving Point for Grandma Pat and Aunt Mandy's birthdays. It was such a nice, warm day. Charlotte had so much fun hanging out with the girls and eating birthday cake. I was going to leave her with a sitter, but she loves being with everyone and talking like she is part of the conversation. She is such a fun little girl.

Happy Siblings!

Just so you could see my cute, grown-up bros. This was at Max's wedding last fall. So cute!

What's goin' on?

We made cookies for St. Patrick's Day. Charlotte loves to cook and she has to sit on the counter to be involved.

Charlotte loves to read. Whenever we can't find her, this is where she is. She reads out loud to herself, it it so cute. I try to record it but she always catches me.

I forgot to take pictures on Easter. We had a very fancy dinner at my mom's. It was fun to have the family together, it seems that gets harder to do all the time.

More cooking. FYI: There were no toes in the cookies! :) Charlotte likes to pretend she is cooking. She takes the measuring cups and spoons and bangs them in the mixer.

I took this video for Uncle Hans. She is getting very big and loves to talk.
