I am all caught up!!!!

So where to begin this is so over due.
Well we are doing well just very busy
Karl is now working one job and it is so nice. He gets to set his own schedule. So he works Monday thru Thursday and has every Friday off I am loving it. I have waited and waited for him to have a 8 to 5 job for a very long time. He is enjoying his new job. He also is still the scoutmaster so that can keep him pretty busy. He so enjoys being the scoutmaster it puts him right back with working with the boys. I just love this man he works so hard. He loves his family and would do anything for us. I got the best man ever.
Michelle she is in third grade counting the days down to summer and then is already excited for fourth grade. She has started the Harry Potter book she needed a challenge and these are defiantly giving her that. She is on book six. Just so excited about the books she can not stop talking about them. When I was at her age there is no way I could have been reading those thick of books she amazes me. I am so proud of her. She is always curious and wanting to be involved in everything. She has a mind of her own and she will defiantly tell you how it is and what she wants. She is just so fun. I am just sad that she is growing up way to fast.

Now for Kenzie let’s see. Well all I can say is that girl is full of energy she is always going she never stops. She defiantly keeps me on my toes and I would not have it any other way. I do not know what I will do when she starts Kindergarten in the fall. Which she is so very excited for. She can not stop talking about going to Kindergarten. She is so proud of herself (I am proud of her to). Kenzie is always willing to help. She also always wants to be involved in everything. She is my girly girl you can usually find her in her dress up cloths. She has quite the imagination.
I love both my girls so very much they are my miracles and I thank Heavenly father for them everyday. They are my angels and I do not keno what I would do with out them.
As for me as you can see I am just trying to keep up with the girls and Karl. I love it though I would not have it any other way. I am still in the primary presidency which I enjoy very much. Some days I am just hanging in there. I so wish we could add to are family. Yet it has not happened and so there are days that are hard for me that I feel that I am hanging on by a thread. What is that saying this to shall pass? I am just trying very hard to have faith and let it be heavenly fathers will. That is hard some days though.

Ship wrecked on the beach

This beach is close to my sister and we wanted to go see the beach with the wrecked boat. it is over in Fort Stevens State Park. If you notice Kenzie is staying far back from the water. Karl and Michelle on the other hand were not staying back they timed the wave so that they could go out and touch the boat. I was not going to do this. Michelle thought it was the coolest thing in the world.

The thumbs up was like have you gotten the picture yet so they could beat the wave

The rest of us just hanging out

This is a at the Fort Stevens State Park

Cannon Beach

So we had a blast at Cannon beach we went here towards the end of are trip. Again it was very cloudy at least it was not raining it was very misty but no rain. The sun was not out though it was really cloudy and you could not see very far out.

We started out at one end of the beach and were going to work are way to the Haystack rocks.
On our way we were flying some kites well trying to it was taking a little while to get them up. So the girls decided to take a little walk towards the water. We told them to come back because they were getting too far out. Well the next thing we knew Kenzie was knocked over by a wave. Luckily her head did not go under but of course every where else went under she was wet from neck to toe. How she did not get her hair wet is beyond me. So of course know she was wet and cold so I had to take her back to the car and get her all dried off. Of course she was done so we got in the car and drove a little closer to the Haystack rocks and parked. Finally convinced Kenzie she would be okay and not get wet again. It was so worth it I was glad we got out and went down even if Kenzie did not want to. When we got down there she of course would not get to close and if a wave came she would run the other way. She did relax and venture out a little bit though. It was so beautiful. Oh the memories.

Michelle had a blast she enjoyed running with the water and trying to out run the waves. When she did get wet she was cold. That did not stop her though.

After Kenzie was taken over by a wave

Haystack Rock

After she was all dry

So Karl took the girl swimming while I packed up the condo

Swimming in the rain

So like I said it pretty much rained the whole time we were on are trip. So we went swimming in the rain it was a little chilly so my sister and I sat in the hot tube while the kids went back and forth to the hot tube and the little kid pool we were really close to that so we coudl let them do that. It was alot of fun!!
