Megan sings!

Megan sings!!! She sings all the time! She sings at the top of her lungs... whether she knows the words or not. She loves to sing in church! See if you can guess these primary songs! It's a fun game that we play! :)

Because they are just soo cute!

Thank goodness for a pool! We love to swim... every day, during the summer! Mitchell has mastered the swimming skills, without floaties.... Meg is still working on it. One thing Megan has mastered is looking the diva swim girl role! Matching sunglasses with swim suits and all! Definately a nice way to spend the later evening, after work and homework are done!

Justin is 14!

Justin turned 14 on the 28th of July. I'm such a lame mom... and had agreed to a cubscout BBQ and swim party at my house... so he really didn't get a whole lot of celebration! Oh well... he was a good sport... and I hope forgives me! We did have the Rogers' side of the family over the Sunday before, for cake and and icecream. Monique's 2nd oldest, Jake has a birthday on the 23rd... he turned 13, so we did a combined Happy Birthday!

I can't believe he is growing up so quickly... the kids is already 3 or 4 inches taller than me! What a cute kid!

Blowing out the candles!

King's Beach in Northshore Tahoe!

The Carter side of the family went up to Judy's house in Tahoe for a quick Saturday FHE. Shane had to work, so I piled the kids in the car and headed up to Tahoe to join his siblings and their families. Grandma Judy lives just a few minutes from King's Beach, and we spent the day in the sun and water. The kids loved playing on Grandma Judy's waverunner. Mitchell and Megan didn't know what to think about the moving water and sand. Once they got used to it... the LOVED it! It was a fun day relaxing with cousins and hanging out!

Megan really didn't know what to think of the sand!

Maddy and Madison building their own lake!

Megan made a new friend at the beach... and helped herself to his beach toys! Thank you to the very nice stranger, who let her play all day with their stuff!
