Catching up 2

Kacie is a great helper in the kitchen!

 Brett and I were able to go down to Sacramento for Michael and Cheryl's wedding.  Here we are waiting outside the temple

 The cute couple!

 I was just messing around and took these pictures of Nate and Kacie by the pond at our neighborhood entrance.

So nice of Debi and Katie's families to come!  We really appreciate all the support we get from our family.  Jon Weber is the photo bomber in this one--sorry Deb!

Catching up!

 I've decided that getting behind on blogging isn't worth it!  It's nearly impossible to try to catch up after 7 month.  So, here are just a few pictures from the last 7 months.   First one of Zach behind grandma and grandpa's house.  I always thought it would be a good location for a picture and so one day I was just playing around and took a few of him.  This is the one that made it on the blog.

 Zach was busy all summer moving pipe.  He had his friend take this with his phone camera.  Not quite sure what is up with the shirt around his head but it made for an interesting pic.

 Kacie was determined to take her friends to Rexburg Rapids for her 7th birthday.  This is her and her friend Sadie.  It was no where near warm enough to go but because it was her birthday request I took them over.  They didn't last long before the poor girls were freezing.  They found warmth playing in the showers in the locker room.

 Nate testing out the bb guns at cub scout day camp at Krupp Hollow

 They panned for gold...

 and played this stick pull game--if I remember right I won! :)

 Kacie was on a kick of playing restaurant.  She would set up a table and chairs in the kitchen and ask people to come sit down and order something.  Mostly chicken  nuggests and water were on the menu.  It was so cute.

Zach received his Eagle this summer.  we are so proud of him and the work he put in to earn it!

I am sure I will find some more pictures to add later but for now these will have to do. :)

Here comes Santa Claus!

Santa made his annual visit to the Robinson Christmas party this year! He is always so generous and brought the kids each pajama bottoms--they love them!





I threw in these pictures of Nate and Kacie at their school Christmas programs

Maui

I added these photos of the zip line after my original post.




Oh how we love Maui! We had a great relaxing trip! We were at the beach almost everyday, we snorkeled, swam, and some did zip line. We ate lots of yummy food and just chilled!
