Jeep Ride

Mace took us on a little jeep ride, usually him and Kenidee

go while I am at work. Kenidee loves riding in the jeep, she can see out

the window at everything and seriously doesn't make a peep just enjoys the

bumpy ride.

Kenidee loves being outside, I know I have said it before but

the girl seriously could live outside. She loves the dirt, sticks, rocks, and

doesn't even mind the wind.

We didn't see anything special along the way except one

small little squirrel. It was still fun though, Mace set up

a little shooting target and taught me a few little tricks

to shooting.

Doesn't this look very similar to the first pic of Mace cheesin it!

Ha Ha they both are too cute.

Kenidee, Kenidee, Kenidee

This was at our ward campout! Kenidee was just peeking out

at Mace fixing the tent, she was so concerned!:)
Amazingly she is great at camping. She loves being outside and
playing in the dirt and rocks!

Just getting comfortable eating her breakfast!

I would love to say that I am Kenidee's best friend, but

I know deep down that it is Teddy. She adores this bear (Thanks Torie)

more than anything. She gives it more hugs and kisses than anyone

and seriously can't sleep without it.

Kenidee's new boots are her favorite! She loves to lift her

leg up and show people. I love her to wear them as much as she does

despite the fact her feet sweat like crazy in them.

I don't know how she was even asleep or that she wasn't

all kinked up when she woke up! Poor teddy!

She is getting too, too big! She has become a little girl

not a little baby! I can't believe she is walking

around and babbling like a little person!

This was at her cousin Kate's birthday party, she already

thinks she is great at driving!

Camping at Lake Powell

We decided to take a quick trip to Lake Powell, Kenidee and I had never

been and now knowing how close it really is I don't know why. We didn't have

a boat or any big toys but we chilled on the beach and played in the water and still had

a lot of fun. Kenidee loved the sand and water she was entertained the entire time.

After our long camping trip Kenidee was exhausted. She was asleep before we got off the beach.

These are our sweet water toys!

The seagulls, ducks, and crows kept Kenidee busy, she tried so hard to

get the seagull ahead of us but of course it didn't happen. They kept coming back

though because of all the food dropped around our little camp.

Isn't my husband a hottie?!

Right before she went to bed she was so tired, she didn't even try to get

out of the chair. She just wanted to sleep.

We told her to smile and this is her response!

Mace's sweet rigging of our little fort. It was super windy for awhile

and our little canopy kept blowing over so Mace put constructed this masterpiece

instead. It became our safety fort and was genius to get out of the wind and help

hold our tent up.

These last few are out of order but I had to put them on cuz she is

so stinkin cute. I haven't posted in forever and I needed to post a big new

accomplishment of Kenidee's. She is walking. She started a week after her birthday

and is now actually choosing to walk over crawling. She is also talking more and signing more too. She has also turned into Mace junior and has become the energizer bunny. If she didn't love

sleep so much I don't think she would ever stop. She has the funniest personality and

plays Mace's games with him until she makes him crazy, which not many people can do! She

is getting so big and I can't really call her a baby anymore, she has merged into a little toddler.

Ducks...ducks...Ducks

Toni took us to visit the ducks by her house. Kenidee loved feeding them bread and watching them swim everywhere. She also loves playing on the swings at Tonis. Thanks Toni for all the fun!

#1 Birthday

Kenidee had her first birthday on Monday, I can not believe she is one already. My dad was down the week before so we had a little pre-birthday party while he was here. Toni and Sean were so kind to host for us in their new house. Thank You! Kenidee loved all the attention and her new surprises! This is her little pony she got she absolutely loves. It sings a little song and makes horse noises which we all have memorized already.

It took her a little bit to realize the purpose of what she was doing. She

learned there was something sweet under the paper, she just had to get it off

and then she could play with it. Aunt Berta gave her a little dollie which she takes

such good care of. She feeds it a bottle and has to sleep with it now. Thanks Berta

This is her with her cake I made her! With her nickname Bug, she had to have
a little lady bug cake! After we sang to her and got the candle blew out instead of digging
in like most kids she politely picked off pieces of candy and handed to everybody and gave
the cake some kisses!

4th of JULY

Kenidee, Ella, & Jane

For the 4th of July we were in Kanab for most of the day! We had a lot of fun and Kenidee loved the sparklers. It was one of last weekends at Mace's mom's house she just sold it and will be moving soon so we were glad to spend the 4th there. I had to work that night so Mace and Kenidee headed up to Brian Head to see the festivities up there. She has been attached to her baby lately and can't do much without her, it is so cute. She is loving summer and being outside. She will point and say outside all day long until you take her out. She has started talking more but still doesn't care to walk on her own yet. She is just getting so big I can't believe its been a year already!
