Summer!!!

I has been awhile since I haven't posted anything on my blog!! This will be a lengthy post for all of you. We've had a nice relaxing summer. We've been to the pool a couple of times, the kids have played alot with their friends, we had a family vacation to St George, we had birthday parties and gone to the fair.

So we went to the Davis County Fair this year. We usually go every year. This year they had a cute little band that plays oldies songs (Beach boys, Beatles). We got to watch their little concert at the fair. They really played very well and we enjoyed ourselves. The kids got to pet some animals, ride ponies, touch sting rays and got to hold and touch snakes and tarantulas. YIKES!!! they had an awesome time doing that with Jorge.

 Braden loves, loves, loves cars. He can tell you the make model of cars. He loves this car which is the Dodge Challenger!! He wanted a picture with the car.
                                                        Waiting in line for the pony rides.
                                                             Kaylee and Braden excited!!
                                                              Braden was a little tense.
                                                   Waiting for the concert to begin!!
                                                                         The band
                                              They picked kaylee to play the tamborine.


We had some birthdays in August and September!! It was my Mother in law's birthday on August and we took them to lunch and then we had cake and ice cream at home.
                                               Here is the family with Jorge in the picture.
                                                       Same picture with me this time.

So I took Kaylee in to the Orthodontist the other day and she is going to need a Palate Expander because she has a cross bite and her teeth on her right side are not alighning with her bottom teeth when she bites down. She will also need some braces on the upper teeth after the expander does its job. Here are the spacers she is wearing to make room for the expander.
                                                  Spacers are the blue little rubber bands.

We had Kaylee's 9th birthday party on Sunday!! But she wanted to do something with her friends. I decided to take them to the Spa for some facials, foot and hand massages and pedicures. They had a relaxing time doing this and loved it. Then I took them to The Sweettoothfairy (which is a cute cupcake shop in layton) for some cupcakes.
We then had a family birthday party. We had some dinner (arepas with chicken and potatoe salad) and cake and ice cream! She got lots of more clothes for school, a new bike from jorge and I and a Rocky Shake it up VIP doll from her brother Braden.
