The Miles: September 2010

What follows a baptism? Why a party of course!!!!

We had everyone over to our house after the baptism. It was a party!!!!! I had a goal to get a picture of everyone that came with Trevor. We had a few sneak out!!! So I'll post whatever picture I want of them instead. Aunt Merrilyn would've come, but the flight was a little long from Afghanistan. We missed her tons. But nonetheless, we still had fun. We always do. And I promise that I was there along with Rob,Brook, Nate and Cody. I think I just got a little too focused on getting pictures of everyone else, I forgot to get some of our family.

Aunt Lori and Uncle Tom. I can't believe she wore her wedding dress to Trevor's baptism. Ha ha

Aunt Sheri, Uncle Steve, Austin and Kiersten were all there too. I thought that this was a good picture to represent all of them.

Honorary attendee Aunt Merrilyn. We know you would've been there if you could've. We're proud to have someone in our family serving our country.

Sweet Kylie was there, but had to get back to picking flowers and berries.

I can't wait until I'm eight, for then I'll be baptized you see!!!!

Trevor was so excited for his baptism and finally it was here. He was such a goof all day. I could tell he was so excited. I'm so proud of this little guy. What an honor it is to have him as part of our family.

Can you tell how excited this little guy is?

Trevor and his baptism buddies from our ward. What a cute group of kids.

Trevor and Dad.

My little Bubba. Can't you just see the excitement on his face!!!

Holiday Waterskiing with the Miles

Waterskiing at Jordanelle is always fun with the Miles Family. This may have not been Rob's favorite waterskiing trip though.

So the day started off well. The kids all had fun. Even the adults had fun.

We returned from the last boat ride of the day to see Rob laying asleep.(At least that's what I thought.) But as we got closer I realized he wasn't in the most comfortable spot to take a doze. He had sprained his ankle trying to give Nate a piggy back ride back from the bathroom. Poor Rob. His ankle still isn't completely healed. Maybe one of these days he'll agree to go to the doctor to have it checked out. Probably not, but I can always hope.

I think that Rob spraining his ankle even bummed Trevor out.

And it completely knocked these three out.

I love a parade

Now that fall is upon us, I've decided I should post all of my summer pictures. Every year I have to talk Rob into going to the Bountiful parade for the 24th of July. I have to remind him how much fun it is and how the kids love it. And every year by the end as I'm walking away with my clothes suctioned to me from the sweat I think, "Why do I always beg him to come. Is this really fun?" But enjoying time with family is time that is always well spent. No matter how sweaty or hot you get!!!!
