xcaret adventure



All of us at the show at excaret

Wow! what an extreme in weather change. Cancun was beautiful and of course warm. It was a wonderful get away. We were so glad Clark and Schaley got to come with us. I'm sure Schaley would agree that we are lucky that we never got pulled over or wrecked in the car. Still not sure who was the crazier driver out of the two guys. I loved our resort and most of all the beach. The best was walking the beach with Ethan while we watched the sun rise. We had lots of fun adventures: excaret, jungle boat, snorkeling, sub sea, flea market shopping, mexican braids, spa, beach, and seeing the real Mexico villages. Thanks a bunch to mom and dad for watching the kids. They are the best ever! Although it was a lot of fun and relaxation, it is good to be home with the kids.

Halloween




We had a wonderful and fun Halloween. BrinLee loved being a nice witch. Easton wanted to be a monkey again and kept saying, "Me Monkey" and he and BrinLee would laugh. Brax was the famous "Headquarters-Sinclair" dinosaur. We had a week full of fun between parties and trick or treating. This is a picture of Brin's preschool class at their Halloween party. They had a costume parade on Orangeville main street.

Happy 1st Birthday Braxton!
















I can't believe my baby is 1! How time flies. We had a fun party for Brax which I think Brin and East enjoyed more since they opened most the presents and helped with everything. Braxton is such a happy little guy we love him to pieces. He hasn't been able to play with what he wants, but with what Easton doesn't want. The poor baby. Braxton loves to always be busy and loves taking everything out of the cupboards. We are so blessed to have our little Braxton. He always has one of us or himself smiling or laughing. We love you Brax!

Happy Birthday to Grandma

We had another wonderful girls trip this year! We love to celebrate grandma's birthday this way. Of course we missed all of you girls who couldn't make it. Hopefully next year, you can come. We did the usual shopping and ate at Red Lobster and stayed at the motel and swam. We had a lot of good laughs and fun memories. BrinLee said to me today that she wished the girls trip was for 6 nights instead of 1. She absolutely loved being with just girls. Ethan was so sweet to watch both boys, and I don't know what he did, but Brax has slept through the night since we have been home. Ya!

Happy 5th Birthday BrinLee!!!!!!!!!!

Birthday girl BrinLee
Our beautiful princess fairy friends

Fairy dancing


Tinker Bell and mini fairy cakes



Fun for all!




BrinLee had a great birthday and birthday party with friends and family. We had the usual family party and then had a fairy tinker bell party with her friends. At the party they did several different things, but they loved that Tinker Bell had hid the magic treasure and brought magic pixie dust & bottles to make (pixie sticks are delicious). They all loved fairy dancing and dressing up like fairies and doing different games. I had a lot of fun making my first cake and thanks to Aunt McKette for helping me too and Mom for watching the kids. BrinLee insisted we had to have a cake like this and party. It was a lot of fun and BrinLee keeps asking when her next birthday is so she can have the same party and have Tinker Bell come to her house again. I'm glad she had so much fun! Oh the magic of being a little girl. She also is working on Grandpa to take her to Disneyland so she can see Tinker Bell again since that is where she lives! Happy Birthday my sweet BrinLee girl and thanks for being patient and letting your brothers help you open your gifts.

Brin's first day of school. Ethan's 30!!!!
















BrinLee has started preschool at Miss Sandra's who she loves and has been asking all summer when she gets to start going again. Starting school of course means we have started dance and gymnastics too. I can't believe it Ethan is 30. It was hard to do anything because of Ethan's crazy busy schedule, but we managed to throw in cake and ice cream with the kids which they loved. Easton was so excited he ended up sitting in the cake. I decorated the store so every one knew. He ended up with a lot of happy birthdays by the end of the day, to say the least.

Camping

We had a lot of fun camping with the Price's. The kids loved it and didn't want to leave. They always want to stay in Grandpa's trailer even if it's in our yard. I on the other hand would much rather be home or camp in a hotel, but I did my once a year camping trip and even pulled a trailer for the first time (not by choice) I don't know that Ferron Mtn. was the best 1st place to pull a trailer, but we made it there and back. In the end it was all worth it for the kids and Ethan.

Parades & Performances

Brin Performing at little Miss Emery County



Brin & East before the Miss Emery County Performance




We had fun attending parades to watch BrinLee on the float and to celebrate Holidays. BrinLee was asked to perform at the Miss and Little Miss Emery County in the opening number and as special numbers. She was quite worn out by the end. She loved performing just hated the practicing. We are so proud of her though. She is a lot of fun to watch and get ready. The kids always enjoyed catching the candy while at the parades.

Swimming







We have loved having the new pool in Castle Dale. We went several times in the summer with different friends and cousins. We always ended up wearing out little Braxton. BrinLee and Easton still want to go every day.

Bridi's Visit
















Bridi was out for the month of July with her little ones. We always love having them here. Easton still keeps asking when we are going to see Davey and his mom. We went to the Children's museum, living aquarium, shopping, swimming, and spent lots of time at g-ma and g-pa's with them. Of course we took time riding Black Beauty. I was glad BrinLee got back on after her fall off of him that was tramatizing for us all. The other bonus was that Easton decided to finally ride Black Beauty since all of the other kids had. Easton always cried before if we even mentioned riding the pony. We were shocked when he finally asked if he could. We have a lot of great memories of the summer.

Megan & Meran's







In June we had a fun visit to see the girls in Cedar. BrinLee stayed with them for a week and the boys and I went to pick her up. I think the girls are happy to still have their freedom. I have a feeling after our visit they are certain they will wait a bit to start a family. We had fun spending time with them at their home, the park and at Meg's hair school. I must say they are quite spoiled to have such a nice condo to live in.

There she is Miss Tiny Tot Castle Dale
















Saturday BrinLee particiapted in the Castle Dale Pageant and won! She did such a great job and we are so proud of her. Whether she won or not we were just as proud. I felt like it was a great experience for her for many reasons. She first competed in interview where the judges got to know her, she came out of the interview with candy. I asked her why she had it. She told me that the judges shared with her after she asked them at two different times for some of their candy. I also found out she couldn't get up on the chair very easy so she asked if one of the girls (judges) could help her get up, and as soon as she did she crossed her legs and put her hands on her knee. I'm sure they got to see a glimpse of her cute and funny personality. BrinLee then had to do a opening number, sportswear where she wore her aunts high heels, talent where she danced, and evening gown. She had so much fun and she did a great job along with all of the girls. It was a great pageant. Now she is excited to ride on the root beer float in the parades. We just love her!
