September with Alivia, part 1

My youngest sister Alivia came to visit us for a couple weeks and it was so nice having her around--plus helpful to have an extra set of hands around for these two guys

We went on a tour of the Braums Dairy Headquarters... 

but it turned out to be a factory tour rather than a farm. 

Oh well, free ice cream and cookies--we three would've preferred milk though ;)

We sewed cute matching skirts and wore them to church 

We play outside everyday, sometimes twice a day. And nightly baths are now a MUST. 

Even though he gets so dirty, it's fun to see him explore and problem solve.

And if you haven't noticed, his cheeks get really red really fast when he's hot-- 

he gets that from his mom's mom :)

Easton loved snuggling with Liv. She's his cool aunt-- only 12 years older than him

On Labor Day we went to the last regular season game of the OKC Dodgers. It was so hot, as per Oklahoma summer usual. Way hotter than when we went in May and June.
We payed for the outfield seats like last time since they're the cheapest and Easton can move around, but the workers said we could go sit in the shade in the seats to escape the sun. So good deal for us!

"Baaaaaaa!!!!" 

We all wished we could've taken our shirts off... soooooo hot

And of course, we had to have a little photo shoot

Montana Summer Trip in a Nutshell, part 4

Easton LOVES being OUTSIDE. Thats all he wants to do all day everyday, and its the first thing he points to when he wakes up.

The girls went to see an... interesting... play at Libby Old Town. 

It was a cute little set up, just a weird performance.

We had to go down the steep hill to be included too.
