Other random cuties

Since I have not done a good job posting the last six months of our lives, here are some more random photos that are just too cute no to share.

Peter and I went on a cruise to the Bahamas (without the kids). So nice!

Naughty Aunt Heather taking pictures of the kids during church, but who can blame her, they are so cute!

Mr. Cool Carder

Halie taught Cruz the art of selfies and he is really into them now.

I don't even know what to say about this one!

Taylor feeding Carder Grandma Bell's famous fried rice

Cutest little girls I know! Taylor and her cousin Ellie

Cruz was terrified of the demolition derby we went to in Utah, until we gave him some headphones. A few minutes after this photo he started enjoying himself. ha ha.

Aunt Katie came to visit before she left on her mission. The kids love this aunt of theirs so much!

Carder all ready for church and too sleepy to make it out to the car

Gave Taylor a granola bar to buy me some time to look around Target. I still don't know how she made such a mess! Her brothers were not dirty at all.

Swimming with cousin Ivan

Ice Cream!

We all scream for Ice Cream!

lots of visits to SeaWorld this summer

We got a new stroller! As you can see the kids love it. ha ha. 

My cute girl asked me to take pictures of her. She is just too cute!

Sweaty Bell Boy

Tay Tay got her shirt caught on her head and was not happy about it. 

This is the perfect picture of my Cruzer boy. He loves lining things up (the fish), I mean anything and everything. And he loves his binkie and teddy.

Free Chick Fil A day

4 wheeling with Uncle Shwa. He doesn't look excited in this picture but he (and his brother and sister) screamed when they had to get off.

Utah Visit July 2014

The kids and I ventured out to Utah this summer to enjoy time with family and the beautiful scenery. We had such a good time playing with family and my parents went out of their way to make it super fun for the kids with all the toys, treats, trips to the park, etc.

The first night after we put the kids to bed we heard some noises coming from their room, so when I went to check on them, this is what I found. They had all figured out how to get out of their beds, tip them over, and they were pulling out all of Grandma's Christmas ribbon. I wonder how long they would have played if I had not come in. So for the rest of our time there they were separated into different rooms and it worked out pretty good.

Carder and Cruz just trying to show their love (through wrestling) to their cousin Ellie.

We went to a demolition derby one night. It was so cool to see and as you will see from these photos, it was the best night of Carder's life!

We went exploring at a stream nearby my parents house. The kids loved being outdoors, playing in the dirt and throwing rocks.

Ellie and Taylor in matching dresses. Ellie posed perfectly for every photo and I could not get Taylor to look at the camera. ha ha
