Ashlyn and mommy are having so much fun!

 Her first encounter with the ocean. She wasn't to sure what to think.

She wasn't to interested in looking at the camera.

She got more used to it, the more she liked it.

Poor girl is the same color as the sand but she still had such a good time!!

She ate her first handful of sand that day. Didn't like it much.

Walking with grandpa. and YES she's walking!!!! All on her own. Has been 4 weeks!!

She loves watching the fans go around and around and around.

Dinner with grandma and grandpa! She loved the garlic bread.

She loved watching the people walk by.

3 little teethies on bottom!

Away they go...

Because of some Army security issues, I have to delete Enoch from our blog and deactivated his Facebook and take all his pix off mine :(:(

In Hawaii!!

Waiting in Seattle for our Hawaii-bound plane! She did pretty good flying. Exhausting as she was, it was fun.

Auntie helping with 'Ba' and 'Dot'

She was pretty happy the entire flight. It was 5 hours long and she took 2 1hr naps so it wasn't so bad.

First trip to the beach! We went to Kahaluu. Magic was too crowded.  She got her first taste of ocean water and did NOT like it at all.

She was clinging to my fingers as tight as she could. She couldn't figure out what this stuff was under her feet but it was so amazing to just watch her take it all in.  It just made my heart overflow with joy.

She was getting a bit cranky because I wouldn't let her play on the lava.

When a good size swell would come and cover her halfway, she would squeal and kick her feet.

'Dude this is AWESOME!'

4th of July!

We had such a fun 4th! My sister came up from Provo to help with last minute things and then planned on flying out with us to Hawaii.  Grandma got the girls matching dresses and it was so cute! Ashlyn kept pulling her headband off.

She just HAD to walk around. She does not sit still now. She can walk on her own and has been able to for about a week!!

It was pretty windy and kinda rainy but we had a good time anyway.

look cuz, we each have one now

Well Ash isn't happy unless she gets the one Franchesca has!

Last days in Idaho

We had a really nice going away party for Enoch the thursday before he left to boot camp.  It was so fun to have everyone there!We are really missing Daddy! Ashlyn would crawl around looking for him everywhere.
