6 Months

Pyper seems so big to me...growing too fast, although today at her checkup the doctor said she is in the 15% for weight.  

She was a trouper to give me all these smiles today after her shots.  She has a fever, sore legs, and has been throwing up because of them.  Poor girl does not like immunizations, and neither does mom. 

School starts next week for the rest of the kids and I am excited to have 5 hours each week with only this sweetheart to think about!

Ellsworth Reunion 2012

This year the reunion started for us when Christine, Jason and Family arrived to spend a few nights at our home.  We went to ijump and Rigby lake.
Then we went to Twin Falls and spent a night at Ryan and Deanna's house.  We went to the Blue Angels- which is always amazing. 
 Something about a man in uniform...  

The actual Reunion was in Idaho City.  A old Gold mining town with lots of fun History.  
 Every year we have mom's morning out for Breakfast and shopping.

 Uncle Trevor, Pyper, Aunt Marcy.
 We enjoyed camp Ivydale all to ourselves.  The camp has a pool where we spent a lot of our time.

 Pyper with her cousin Hallie.

 The last night we had a dance!  It was a blast.  Lynn's mom Pennie and Cousin Skyler below.
Yummy Ice Cream!  I think the Ice Cream Parlor made bank that day when all of us Ellsworth's came in! We had 45 people at the reunion this year, and that is just Lynn, his Brothers, Sister, Mom and Grandpa.   
On our way home we met up with Grandpa Dec and took him to Buffalo Wild wings. 
Other Highlights of the trip were the Boys ShotGun shoot.  Uncle Paul won this year.  And the famous Spa that some of the nieces and nephews put on...with massages, pedicures, and facials.  It was amazing.  The theme this year was Army Boot camp.  The kids enjoyed basic training and wearing their dog tags all week.
