End of Summer 2011

 4th of July at Papa and Nana's house.  Brooke, Hayden, Ava

 Lots of grandkids at the pool. Supposedly this is all the cousin's kids together.

 Happy Sunburned 4th of July!

 Cameron took some soccer lessons this summer.  She was pretty good!  She dribbled the ball and could do all the skills they asked.  I love watching soccer so I hope she continues to enjoy it.

 Brooke thought she looked so lovely and wanted her picture taken.

 We had a lot of playdates with our summer friends.  Maria, Cameron, Grace and Carmen are enjoying some pushups.

 La Bruja!!!!  Brooke likes to be a witch.  "I'm la bruja."

Cameron is growing up fast!  She loves listening to the ipod.  Blacke Eyed Peas, Britney, Usher...  She's got some pretty sweet dance moves too!

 FINALLY!  Off to rehearsal for Auntie Beka's wedding!

 My rare mom and girls photo.

 Brooke has packed her bags and is heading to Hollywood.  It might be the sunglasses.  She wears them non-stop.  My favorite is when we were in a store and Brooke was wearing a dress, her sun glasses and was carrying a purse.  Some grandpa-ish man did a double take and said "Well, Hello Hollywood!"  It was pretty funny.

 So cute!  Notice the glasses... told ya.

 Papa and his 3 lovely girls.

 Getting hair styled the day of the wedding.  Brooke was pretty patient.  It took almost an hour for them to curl and style Cameron's hair.

 Brooke has about 1/3 the amount of hair Cameron does so it only took her about 20 mins...

 What a happy Flower Girl...it won't last.

 Cameron

Snuggles and nookie.  Brooke missed her nap and that caused some crying. She does love her naps.  I think that is her favorite time of the day.

 Twins!  Cameron and Hayden

 Made Tim take a pic of me and my big girl.  They were very well behaved, although it helped we gave them whatever they wanted, M&Ms, new toys, movies, pop.... all in the name of having happy kids for a day.

 The Fancy Rogges!

 The Too Cool Kallas!

 Studly Ring Bearer Ethan (Notice Jen - she looks like she is practicing her sweet dance moves in the background. Heee heee heee)

 Brooke refused to walk down the aisle so Tim carried her.  What a trooper.

Beka and Chip.... so beautiful!

 Brooke dunking knives in her water...

 Papa and Nana at the reception.  The girls can't wait to dance!

 No one is as cool as Aunt Beka and Uncle Chocolate Chip!

They danced and drank pop and had so much fun they nearly dropped right over!  Everything we smooth and it was a wonderful time. 

I have a few more pics to add, but I will do that another time. We are heading to the State Fair tomorrow and then it is back to work!  I am soooo excited for this school year.  I will be teaching 5th grade at Akin Road Elementary in Farmington.  This summer went by slowly of course since I couldn't wait to set up my classroom and plan lessons.  The girls had a great summer. Cameron played soccer and went to Kids Kamp.  Brooke played with me.  We saw a lot of friends and family.  Kristin and her family came from Mexico and we saw them for 2 days in August.  I had not seen Sophia in two years.  Cameron said Sophia is her best friend.  I will post some pictures of them soon too.  We only had one wedding so that was a bummer b/c I love weddings.  Tim played some golf and August consists of many Fantasy Football drafts for him.  Fall is on the way... nothing I love more than the start of school and the cooling of the air...birthdays, Halloween ,Thanksgiving, Christmas!  It's all on it's way!
