Photos by Tage......August 24, 2010

Tage LOVES to take pictures! In fact, Sam and I have to erase at least 50 pictures from our camera he has taken when we download our pict's to our computer. We got him a camera for his birthday hoping he would only use his camera but now he uses both of them. :) Today I was browsing through his pictures while erasing them and came across these... I edited them a bit, but they are actually really cute!

If he doesn't do something with photography someday we will be very surprised. Good Job T-Man!

Crazy pairs with crazy hairs......August 23, 2010

Hadlie and some of her friends have been itching for colored hair extensions. So after the first day of school I took them all to get their hair extension. They were so cute and had a great time. They each chose a different color. Here are the final results...

Riley and Cambrie each got a bright pink color. These two have such light and dark hair that theirs showed up the best. Riley got fuchsia and Cambrie got hot pink.

Hadlie and Kelsey got more subtle colors for their hair. Hadlie got purple and Kelsey got blue.
It's the beginning of all the fun growing up things to do for these four. What I wouldn't give to be their age again. Life is so much fun!

Back to School.....August 23, 2010

Hip Hip Horray, school starts today! I can't believe yet another summer has passed and the kids are back to school. I usually am ready for school to start but this year I have mixed emotions. I really wish we had one more month before school started. The summer has flown by and it was a little crazy with everything that was going on in our family.

It's always an adjustment for me to have them all back home during the day for the summer and an adjustment for having them gone again when school is back in. But in a few weeks things will be back on track.

I am really excited for the kids and the teachers they have this year. They both have WONDERFUL teachers and they both will be learning an instrument in their respective class. Hadlie is going to learn the Ukuele and Daxton will be learning Guitar. Tage starts pre-school and I love his teacher also. It will be an exciting year to watch them grow and learn.

Here's to the upcoming school year! Good Luck Hadlie, Daxton, and Tage.
Dad saying good-bye and good luck!
Getting loaded into the car!
Here we are....
Daxton in front of his class,
Hadlie in front of hers!
I'll miss you both! Work hard, play hard, and enjoy learning. Education is one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself!

Soccer Maniac.....August 21, 2010

Hadlie is our little athlete. She is very competitive. Anything she puts her mind to, she accomplishes. Today was her FIRST soccer game of the season. She scored 10 goals out of the 16 her team scored total. She scored the first 4 goals in less than the first 10 minutes of the game. She kicked booty! Way to GO Hadlie!

California Trip #3....August 11-15, 2010

How does the saying go? "The third time is always a charm?" Sam, my grandma, and I went to California. This was the third time for me and this time was more enjoyable; I finally got to hold Baxter. In fact, everyone did! He is such a sweet baby! We had great trip visiting with Mike, Jamie, Trae, Aizlyn, Baxter, and my mom!

Thursday we got to the hospital and stayed most of the afternoon with Jamie and the baby! We also went to dinner with Jamie before we headed to their house. We had a very enjoyable time!

Friday Sam and I went to the Monterrey Aquarium. It was pretty cool! They had some great exhibits. Our favorites were the Jelly Fish, Sea Horse, and the Sting Ray petting pool. It was pretty crowded and we saw a lot of neat fish, however, the price was not worth it! Nevertheless, it was fun!

Sea Dragon...
Jen and Jellyfish...
Sam and Sardines...
After the aquarium we went to Lover Point Beach. It's a really small beautiful beach down from the aquarium. It was a pretty calm day, no one was really there!
Mike, Baxter, and Trae...check out Trae's mo hawk! Mike gave him a mo hawk, he got to keep it for 4 days. He looked AWESOME!
Me, mom, and Grandma in the hospital waiting room...
Me and Mike, always having a laugh, us two!
This is why, we were kissing Trae, and he LOVED it! hahaha.. :)
Saturday Sam, Mike, Jamie, Trae, and Aizlyn went to Pier 39 in San Fransisco for a couple of hours. It was VERY crowded there and very cold.
All of us eating dinner at the Pier...
Sam, me, Aizlyn, and SpongeBob! Ta Da!
Sunday Sam, grandma, mom, and I drove back home. I had to include this photo because we were laughing so hard at this... We stopped at McDonald's to get lunch. My mom, my grandma and I all decided to ordered a Chipolte Spicy Chicken Wrap for lunch. My mom never gets the Chipotle Barbecue Sauce on her wrap because the sauce is too spicy for her. However, me and grandma decided to get ours with the sauce. Now, this was grandmas first time at the Chipolte wrap, my mom warned her it was spicy, and boy oh boy she was crying afterwards, literally. It WAS SPICY! Poor grandma! She couldn't even finish it.

The Sweet's Candy Factory....August 2, 2010

My friend Carrie invited me and my kids on a trip to the Sweet's Candy Factory. We couldn't take our camera inside so we did all of our photo shots outside. Everyone was pretty excited. It was pretty "sweet" to see how they make, package, and store all their candy! They gave us a few samples of their "sweets". You know we all thought that was pretty "sweet" too! We had a lot of fun!

This is Conlie, me, Paizlie, Tage, Hadlie, Brandtson, and Daxton. Before we went in the factory. (Peace Brandtson!)
This is all of the kids AFTER the tour. LOVE THE "SWEET" HAIR NETS! Tage, Conlie, Cannon, Cambrie, Hadlie, Paizlie, Cooper, Daxton, and Brandtson. "Looking good kids!"
This is "sweet" little Cannon and Paizlie resting on the lawn. Aren't the cute?
So Carrie and I had to sport our "sweet" hair nets too. Aren't we cute?
And we're a little corny too!

Fiesta Days....July 24, 2010

Another Robertson tradition is breakfast at Aunt Colleens while we watch the Spanish Fork parade. After the parade we head down to the park for the afternoon. We get lunch and watch the entertainment. We love the 24th of July. It's one of our favorite things to do with Sam's family every year. Usually we run the Speedy Spaniard 10k but we this year we opted out. We had a great 24th!

Daxton and Hadlie during the parade. (I don't know why Hadlie is mad in this picture?)

Grandma paid for all the kids to get their faces painted:

P.S. Thanks for the fun water fight Grandpa Jerry! I hope I can get you better next time. But THANK YOU for not throwing me in the pool! I love you a ton! Jen

Spanish Fork RODEO!.....July 23, 2010

A Robertson tradition every year is to go to the Spanish Fork Rodeo. The kids LOVE it! They had mine and Sam's favorite Rodeo Clown, The Wild Child, this year again! He is a crack up! All of Sam's family went. We had great seats, thanks to Grandma Bobbi. They were in the shade and front row, it can't get any better than that!
