First Day of School



Well today was Quincee's first day of Kindergarten. I can't believe she is old enough to go to school. She was a little nervous this morning, but that went away as soon as she walked into her class. She had so much fun and can't wait for tomorrow.




















She looked so big walking into school. I tired real hard not to cry. Quincee told me that if I got sad and missed her I could just call the school and she would come home. That made me feel a lot better!!






















Cait's not quit sure what to do with out her big sis around. It sure is a lot quieter! But I actually missed the noise. I'm sure I can get use to it though!

Give Paul the Gold!

I'm sitting here watching US Olympian Shawn Johnson competing for the gold medal in woman's balance beam and I couldn't help but share this inspirational gymnastics video. Enjoy!

Sisters


I'm so lucky to have such wonderful sisters. The only problem is that we live too far from each other. I have a sister in Pennsylvania, one in Arizona, and one in Seattle. But I was lucky to have two of them come visit me last week. Shalece (from Penn.) came to visit with her two boys and Britt (from Seattle) surprised us by coming to. It was so fun. Thanks for coming you two! And next time will get Chels here with us. I love you guys!












The cousins had fun playing together. We got all in for a picture except little Brandon. They were so cute.
















Aaron though it was great laying on Aunt Britt's lap in the hot garage while the other kids rode their bikes.

















Here's the newest cougar fan. Can't wait for those football games to start!!

Two Cute Girls


I just had to post this cute pictures of the girls. My mom made these cute red nightgowns for the granddaughters and the girls love wearing them. My dad took this picture and I thought it was so cute I had to share it with everyone.

New Arrival

Our little boy is finally here. Aaron Brian Allred was born Saturday, July 26th at 11:24 a.m. and is as perfect as can be. His two big sisters were so excited to see and hold him. He weighed 7 pds. 9 oz. and was 20 in. long. That's pretty big for us! We brought him home on Monday and the girls have loved having him around. They are such big helpers. He has jaundice and has had to be on lights the past two days. We are hoping when we go in today that the doctor will say he's okay. We feel blessed to have such a good little boy and that things went so well. We'll keep you updated with lots of pictures.

He's already a Bronco fan, just like his daddy!

Aaron gets plenty of kisses from all of his girls!

This has been Aaron's bed for the past two days. He is now off of it and we are loving holding him again.

Aaron is such a sweet little boy. We love having him around.

Bear Lake

Our summer has been crazy! With girl's camp, scout camp, and all of Brian's different seminars it was hard to find time to do much of anything, but we did make it up to Bear Lake and it was so much fun. We went with my parents and my brother and his family. The girls loved it. No one got sick and Quincee was the only one to run into the screen door! It was great! Here are a few pictures of our little "vacation"!



Quincee loved playing in the sand. Yes, that is a Hanna Montana life jacket!!


About all Caitlin wanted to do was eat potato chips. But it sure kept her happy!


Quincee decided she'd go snorkeling (I guess to see the cat fish!). It was so tight on her, her upper lip was bright purple. It was so funny!!!


Of course it wouldn't be right if we left out the s'mores. They were so good, I lost track on how many I ate! Yummy!!


Quinc enjoyed them also! Nothing like marshmallow in the hair!
