Firsts and Family

This fall was filled with firsts and some fun family time.

 Rhett got potty trained at 2 1/2. He did great other than being deathly afraid to poop! But by the end of the week he was a champion. He even can hold it all night!

 Fun picnic at the. hospital. Every year they have this balloon lady. She is amazing!

 Chloe is a coloring genius. It is literally all she does!

 Luke started piano and he is doing so well. My favorite part is that he sings the song as he plays.

 Family zoo day. The hippos were so cool.

 Riding the train!

 Soccer season. Go team Assumption! We love the catholic sports association and are glad they let us non-catholics play with them, but team name "Assumption"? Kind of a downer!

At least we aren't team Immaculate Conception! :)

 We LOVE the pumpkin patch

 

 The kids loved the corn maze. They ran through it a million times.

Corn mazes always give me anxiety!

Double Trautwein Time!

This summer was one of my favorites ever! But back to school. Now Trautwein Elementary will have two McClintock's. It will just be me and Rhett chilling at home. One kid! That's crazy!

Luke's first day of 2nd Grade. Mrs. Hardin is his teacher.

Chloe's first day of Kindergarten. Mrs. Wolff is her teacher.

Rhett wishes he could go!

Walking to the bus stop. They are good friends. I'm so glad Chloe has Luke. He is a good brother.

Hobbs Family Reunion 2013

This was our first official Barry Hobbs Family Reunion. We went camping in the Uintas. It was our first camping trip and our kids had a blast. Our only mishaps were that Luke feel in the lake (completely submerged) while fishing and Rhett burnt his hand in the fire. We survived

 Fishing action

 Chloe caught the first fish!

 Campfire time

 Rhett has his own personal tent. He was super cozy!

 Luke's catch

 He even ate it all up!

 I'm a looker when we camp. Why do guys never look bad?

 Rhett had to be Michael Jackson after he burnt his hand.

 Our domain during the trip.

Sister love. Nature makes us look good!

Summer Catch Up

This is going to be long.....

 

 Firework fascination

 Who doesn't love sparklers

 This is a rare occasion, playing with dad and in a swim suit

 Luke's dream come true. All Luke wanted for his birthday was to do to Buffalo Wild Wings. He kept saying "I heard they have great wings mom!"

 Cousin Play. They had costumes, parts, and lighting.

 3 of my sisters. Abby is serving her mission in Canada

 My mom is a genius. We had a family night where we great a standards flag. We wrote all the things we stand for and then we hiked it up the mountain and staked in in the ground.

 Chillin' with the dogs

 Rides at Lagoon. Possibly the most fun we have ever had. It was a dream day!

 Cooling off with slushies

 Man they are ripped. And of course my kid is the whitest one. I wonder why?

 Pioneer Day. These girls playing dress up caused a ripple effect. This turned into this...

 and this turned into this.....

 Can you believe my mom owns this much pioneer garb? Too many pioneer day parades and hand cart pushing hikes. So call Lorie if you need an outfit.

 Hanging out by Uncle Jake's cool car.

 Boating. Our fav

 Rhett loves the boat.

 A beautiful Utah evening with Poppa.

 Rhett and Holden becoming good buddies.

 These girls are so beautiful.

 It is few a far between that they get together. We are just missing Kelsey.

 My old stomping grounds. Go Cougs!

 We snuck in the stadium. Had to be done.

 Chloe's birthday morning at Makenzie's. Thanks for the donuts Seth.

 Rhett smudging up Grandma Hobbs' perfectly clean sliding class door.

Off-roading with Grandpa. It was the like clown car of 4wheelers!
