Lake Tahoe

So my last post was actually the weekend BEFORE the 4th of July. For the 4th we went to Reno to visit my sister and her family and while we were there we spent one of the days at Lake Tahoe. Beautiful place! We will definitely make another visit there sometime. We even found a "secret" beach. This was Lydia's first time to a beach. Adam couldn't come with us to Reno so I hope he will be able to go next time we go!

Reno (Again)

Now let's rewind back into the middle of August :) Miss Mimi got blessed in Reno that weekend so I hopped back in the car with my parents and we made the long drive back over there! Here are few of some pictures (that took me forever to get done) to document our trip!

Best we could get of them all! (minus the littlest)

My mom decided we should get in the tree...

Of course we had to get out the princess dresses again (I accidently put Lydie's on backwards) Ivy and Sophie put their dresses on so Lydia went and found one and ran into the room saying "Princess too! Princess too!"

And I had to get some more of this little one...she is so squishy and sweet!

We also celebrated Nat & Steve's birthday while we were there. Steve's birthday was on Naomi's blessing day so we had two parties in one :)

After all that playing and eating it was definitely time for a nap..

Reno

Is June really almost over? I am seriously not liking how quickly it is going by. Winter will be here again before I can even blink again :(
The reason it has been going by so fast is because of all the fun things we've been doing and have planned this summer!

I have been planning on going to Reno with my parents for awhile because my sister's baby was due the middle of June. She ended up having Miss Naomi LaRue Perry on June 7, 2012. We headed down the next weekend to see them!

I didn't have a lot of time to get as many as I wanted. She was tired of me messing with her so I worked with what I had and they're pretty darn cute :) I posted them on my photography website and facebook, but in cased you missed those I'll go ahead and post them here too.

both of the girls just adore their baby sister. Whenever she was awake (which wasn't too often) they would always come say hi and give  her a kiss!

Isn't she so sweet?! I got my baby fix so hopefully that we keep me happy for awhile :)

Lydia had a blast playing with Sophie and Ivy while we were there. I obviously had to get some of them too!

Ivy's "bored model pose"

On Sunday afternoon I asked the girls if they wanted to take "fancy" pictures and told them they could wear whatever they wanted. Sophie and Ivy ran into their closet to surprise me with what they were going to wear ( I wasn't real surprised they were going to be in princess dresses!) and threw out a Rapunzel dress for Lydie.

Lydia's dress was just a TAD big for her :)

Obviously after you put on your princess dress you need to put on your heels too!

And tiaras

We had so much fun! Lydia did extremely well on the ride to and from Reno (about a 9 hour trip). She watched Elmo DD's (DVDs) almost the entire time and couldn't wait to get back in her "car sit" to watch him again. She is Elmost #1 fan!
We are excited to go back in August for her blessing!
