Trip Back East

Just one of the local bums that fell asleep on the ferry ride.

We took a tour of New York by boat, it was quite the view.

This is in front of Ground Zero in New York, everything is locked up for construction right now.

Horseshoe Falls next to Niagara, "Don't worry about it, Kenna, I saw this on a movie once, Superman will come."

Preparing for the tour from below of Niagara (actually Horeshoe falls) it was windy and therefore very wet.

Just liked this shot.

The Hunter... ...and his prey. Dal won the costume contest for his 3rd year.

Here we are chillin with the Lincolns at his museum in Springfield.

This wasn't a big hit with Kenna either, but she sure looked scary for a minute.

This is preliminary for Dal's costume, guess the stache wasn't too popular

Good Times!!

Kenna and Dallin sharing some grapes one Sunday after Church. They are becoming best of buds. After they had their snack, we put them to work to decide what was for dinner. You can tell they are concentrating hard trying to come up with something. (If you look closely, you can see Kenna's tongue hanging out; that means she is serious)This is Kenna's favorite little corner. She crawls back there and reads the books, her way, which is pulling them off the shelf one by one and looking at each of them for about a second.

Dallin moved that bean bag to the middle of the floor to watch TV with Denny. About 5 minutes later, this is what we found. I can't believe how big he is getting. This is a cute picture, but he just looks too big and is growing up too fast.

Kenna's Birthday Party

We celebrated Kenna's birthday on the 20th with some of our friends. We did it outside and had a little pizza party. It was a pretty afternoon-perfect for a party. This was the cake. It was a lot of fun to make. I would recommend using one with Jello in it for their first birthdays if you are going to let them eat it. Kenna absolutely loved it-as you will see- and loved how it felt. She had a lot of fun playing with it.

That is one of the marshmallow faucets that is sticking out of her mouth.

She kept on going for some time. For the first little bit, she just played with the Jello, but when she finally ate some, that's when it started making it to her mouth.

Still eating cake.


After awhile, we let anyone that wanted to help her eat it. How could they resist? Doesn't it look so appetizing? :)

The after shot.
