So Much to Update!

A lot has happened since my last post. To start with Andy got a job with Foster Farms and so with only a weeks notice we packed up and headed to California. Since we lived all Summer not knowing when a job would come we didn't go on vacation or do much of anything. So before the job started we went to Disneyland. Thanks to my sister Brooke, we got to go without Jacob. We had a great time. Abby did not like the "Madden Horn" or the "One that sings with the guys in the real clothes" (AKA Priates of the Caribbean). She is still talking about the trip! Here are a few photos.

Grammy, Aunt Brooke, and Jaden come to visit

Oops, Scott threw Kasia up a little higher than he expected! You should click on the photo so you can really see her face. She landed in the water kind of face first and didn't even mind. She's such a champ.
This is Scott throwing Jaden up in the air. He was really tossing the kids high.

Jacob with Gavin (I think?) I am terrible and telling them apart in photos, and Kasia

Jaden, Abby, and Abby climbing at Bridal Veil Falls. The water was freezing cold but they didn't mind too much.

Jaden loved loved loved Jacob. He always wanted to hold him and carry him and feed him and everything. It was really cute.

Jane Grandma and Lori come to visit

Jane stayed with us for a week while Lori was at EFY and visiting with the Allen's. We hiked up to Cascade Falls and let me just say that it is not "Stroller Friendly". You should have seen us trying to push that thing up the trail. We finally took Jacob out, ditched it, and just carried him the rest of the way.
Even though it was hard to get up there with a baby it was well worth it.

On Sunday we drove up North to visit Jim's cousins Grant and Dianne Anderson as well as Dennis and Marryanne Christensen. It was nice to meet some of Andy's extended family.

This is Abby hanging out with Grandma while she is cutting out the dress she is going to make and smock for her. Abby is so excited! Thanks for the great visit Jane, we had a great time.






Barth Cousin Get - To - Gether

We had a cousin get to gether for my side of the family towards the end of July. We held it at our place and had foil dinners! It was so nice to see everyone and to just visit. The kids spent almost the entire time digging in the sand and playing on the swings. Aunt Ginger and Alan were there because Amanda had just had her sweet little baby Ty about a week prior and they were out to visit and help.
Aaron feeding a bottle to Jake, what a good cousin!
