July 2010
The kids had a blast planting vegetables this year, then watching them grow. Their favorite part was harvesting and eating them. 
Katie helped herself to breakfast one morning when she got tired of waiting for mom and dad. She seemed to be pretty proud of herself. 
We visited Temple Square in Salt Lake City, Utah this summer, too. The kids loved all of the flowers outside, and they loved pushing buttons on all of the video exhibits inside. 
Katie is fearless. She has yet to meet an animal she did not like. She will feed them, pet them, hug them, ride them, and play with them. One of her best friends is Murphy the Dog next door. She knocks on the fence, then he comes over and digs a hole under the fence just big enough for Katie to put a cracker underneath. 
The Fourth of July bike parade at our ward party. Gracie has learned to ride a two-wheeler. Andrew is riding with training wheels now. They are both getting quite good.
