We were able to spend a week at Shaver Lake with Thad's family. His parent's rented a nice cabin and borrowed some wave runners and it was a really fun week. We "drove boats" as Andi called it, built sand castles, had a rope swing, ate way too much, and laughed a lot.
Our Sunday Walk/Hike
The boys are severely outnumbered so they stick together
Yes, Thad really let Andi steer for a while.
Even Grandpa Richards(92 yrs old) took a ride
Sammy's baby corral
Grandpa and Andi both fell asleep during story time ;)
We came home Saturday in time to get cleaned up and take Family pictures with my family in our backyard, and spend the evening with them before Kelsie and Cameron had to get back home.
Sammy has decided that he is over baby mush food. He wants whatever we are eating and if he sees you walk in the room chewing he will crawl up to you and yell till he gets a bite of whatever it is. He's very pushy. He cruises along the furniture like crazy and has finally mastered the art of "getting down" without hurting himself. He loves to follow Andi around and investigate what she is playing with, which doesn't always go well. Andi is not as fond of Sammy's new found freedom of movement as he is.Andi, besides making adjustments with Sammy, is NOISY! She is always telling us stories, or singing songs, and she loves to make Sammy laugh, but her methods usually require some squealing. She loves her primary class and singing time. I think once Thad gets a job we are going to start her in dance lessons to help her use up some of her crazy energy.
Now that it's written it doesn't sound like we've been that busy, but it has felt like a crazy month.

I can't believe that Bobby is home. Looks like you had a fun vacation. I love your family pictures. You guys are too cute.
so whenever i'm at home andi looks alot like a bulkeley, but when you have her standing next to the other cousins, she looks just like you!
PS. isn't thad supposed to still be blogging? i was confused when I started reading and realized you were back!
yes, he is, but he was slacking so I had to do it.
I love the family photo. We can NEVER take a good one. Looks like you guys had a fun and exciting August. Sammy needs to teach Dylan how to "get down" with out hurting himself. As I am writing this Dylan is jumping off the couch, 30 min until John gets home. Sorry I wrote a novel :) Love all the pictures.
That's a great family photo! You guys are so photogenic :) My mom's been talking about getting a family picture taken of us...but we'll see.
That week up at Shaver was so much fun! We really had some great memories and LOTS of food:) I think the grandkids will be talking about that week for a long time. The weather was perfect and we all got along so well. We'll definitely have to do it again!
Great Family pictures!
