The Taj Ma BBQ

Jose I mean Zac is almost finished with his bbq. He has been working his tail off and it looks awesome! Great job bub!
Please notice the dust and concrete stuck to him. Shower anyone?

LASHES

So I decided to try out what my sister in law Annie suggested for pictures of wet lashes. I am not very good but luckily my sweet peanut has amazing eyes so here are some of her in the bath. Is it just me or does she look like she has red hair? It looks very blonde in person, but we may just end up with a little strawberry! Thanks Annie and Carin for the idea!

Sister Time

Isabelle loves to torture Ava when she is playing on the floor. They just laugh and roll around together. I am so excited for them to be best friends! I can already see that they are!

Ava Jean Is My Lover!

My sweet little peanut is six months old! I can't believe it. She is still such a sweet girl and is so happy all the time. She smiles at everyone! She LOVES her sister and is getting very good at rolling over and scooting around. She is eating baby food now and has become a pigglet. Her favorites are squash and pears. I am a little nervous for her to get more mobile, I'm not sure I have the energy after Isabelle! We just love her! Here are some shots of the squash!

ALOHA!!!

We have returned from our AWESOME trip to Hawaii! It was so much fun! We went with our friends Nate and Kassidi Jepesen and stayed at the Wyland Wakikkii in Wakkikki. We went to the Polynesian Cultural Center, Pearl Harbor, snorkling at Honoma Bay and Shark Cove, went to North Shore, hiked some falls, saw the temple, and got pretty roasted! It was such a great experience! Hawaii is an amazing place! The vibe is soawesome and the people are all so nice. Zac made lots of friends there and is planning to move there in the winter! He will open an office and give it a shot and see if us girls will go out and join him for a while.
The cultural center was pretty dang cool. There are exibits and shows from all of the islands and then a lu'au and night show with fire dancing and all. It is right next to BYU Hawaii and most of the kids working there are paying their way through the center. Pearl Harbor was just unreal. It makes it so much more realistic being there. It really is a reverent place and the history is amazing. I have always wanted to go and I suggest it to everyone!
We spent lots of time on the beach. The boys tried out some surfing and we all did some snorkling and swimming. Kassidi was such a trooper being 6 months prego! She made me feel like a wimp! We loved the temple and were amazed to learn how old it is! It was built in 1919 making it older than the Mesa temple! The sisters there were great and we will definitely have to go back for a session!
All in all it was a great trip! It was very relaxing and nice to get a break from kiddos. A HUGE thanks to Zac's and my parents for letting our babies stay with them! We really appreciate it and owe you BIG TIME! We love you! ( Thanks to Annie and Mike too!)
Next time we go anyone and everyone's invited! It's a blast!

Bombs Away!!!

Isabelle has become a great swimmer and with that comes the flying. As you can see she is not afraid of flying... in fact she really enjoys it. I have to go inside for part of it so that my heart valve doesn't burst. Her and daddy get crazy in that pool and she LOVES it!
Ava is starting to get in the pool too. She loves to just stare at the water. I think it must be a pretty sweet trip for her because you can not get her attention the whole time. She does own a swimming suit, however we like to be W.T. and swim in diapers. Isabelle's bum ALWAYS hangs out the back of hers and we thought you would enjoy!

Daddy's BBQ is Coming Along...

Zac has been working so hard to finish our bbq. We just got home from a 10 day visit to Utah (Which by the way I thought I lost my camera on the airplane so I have NO pictures! Then when I got home it was on the counter with the video camera!) so he got a little held up. He is doing awesomeand sweating his brains out! It is SOOOO hot out there and he just loves it! (Not really the heat, just the work!) So you can see how the seating area and bar are coming together. He did the stucco today, you can't really see that in the pics. Tommorrow he will start on the stone. We'll keep you posted! Oh for those of you who have asked about Zac sharing his skills at your house.... he's VERY expensive! We would like our daddy back!
