Silly Girls!

We went to a pool that belongs to one of Brian and Jason's clients for a family swimming part. Grandma and Grandpa were there, Amanda, Jason, Angie, and Nauva. We all had a lot of fun! Lily was miss daring! She was jumping off the diving board with no fear whatsoever. We had to keep telling her to wait until daddy was ready to catch her. Cloey wants to do everything Lily does so she got up on the diving board and then she froze. So we had to help her jump. About every time that Lily jumped Cloey would get up there too, but again would freeze. I played a little motorboat game with Cloey, at the end of the game you are supposed to blow bubbles. Well she would put her whole face in and laugh hysterically, she thought it was so funny that she would end up putting her face in before the end of the rhyme! Too cute.

Cloey and Daddy having a good old time!

Lily and Amanda swimming around.

Daddy gave Lily and Cloey a horse ride to their beds!

Daddy was pretending to be sleeping and Cloey tried to wake

him up by jumping on him.

The girls were playing dress up and Lily walked up to me and 

said "Mom take our picture!" it was pretty sweet.

Camping Adventures!

We went camping this last weekend with some family and friends. We had originally planned it with our friends Bryson and Heather and added some more good friends. We drove up towards Stanley and found an empty campground there! It was nice to have the campground all to our selves. The girls love camping! The sad part about the campground is it had recently had a lot of trees cut down! so there was bits of the trees everywhere! Making it hard the little ones to walk and keep their balance! Needless to say they have some nice looking souvenirs from the twigs on their legs! Lily and Cloey really had fun playing with Taylor and Mason(JD and Kerry Motley's boys) and of course Nauva their cousin! Cloey always looks forward to seeing Nauva, she was always asking "Where Na?" and Lily was always wanting to play with Taylor and was sad to see them head out on Sunday! It was really nice to get away and relax from Friday through Monday! It was nice to have our trailer to camp in, it was really cold at night! We felt bad for Melisa and JD who came up just for Friday night, because they were gone before we even got up on Saturday! Bryson, Heather, and our family went and found a small lake or pond to swim in near where we camped last year. The girls had fun splashing and playing, until Lily got too cold and Dad had to wrap her in a towel on a chair while we stayed in for a little longer. After swimming we drove around the lake to check out some of the camp areas there. As we were driving Heather spotted a bear! We stopped and he stopped and just stared, he was probably only 30 feet away or so! It was crazy! Then he ran off into the woods! Sunday we played some fun frisbee golf with Jason and Angie! I am terrible at throwing a frisbee so we had some good laughs! Sunday night we had the campground all to ourselves because everyone had left. So after the girls went to bed Bryson, Heather, Brian, and I sat around the fire for a while. The stars were beautiful and the fire was nice. As we were sitting there Brian turned his flashlight on and pointed it directly behind him and there was a deer! She was very pretty, but did scare me at first, you just don't expect to see a bigger animal 15 feet from where you are sitting! Anyway, Monday we packed up and came home, much to the disappointment of the girls, they did not want to leave! Cloey was telling me "No Home!" it was pretty cute! That was our camping adventure!

We brought up a volleyball/badminton set that the girls had fun playing 

with. They were always trying to put the poles together.

Bryson, Heather, Brian, and I were playing Phase 1o and looked up

to see the girls in these chairs playing ball!

Here is Lily "reading" the Ensign after her nap, too cute!

Here is Brian and Cloey just hanging out, they look a bit tired!

Yummy Tomatoes!

This year we planted some cherry tomato plants and some pea plants. It has been a lot of fun to teach the girls about them. Lily is now always telling us that the tomatoes have to turn red first! When they are ready Brian takes them out to pick them. It is a special daddy-daughter time. They love it! Not to mention eating them. The tomatoes are usually gone within the hour with all three of them munching! So here are some pictures of them picking the tomatoes!

Family Fun!

Last Tuesday there was a pretty big storm that swept through Boise and the girls were completely taken in by it! They stood at the window for nearly the whole morning watching the rain come down! 

The weekend before the storm both the girls were sick! Cloey was first, she started her fever Thursday and was a lot better by Sunday, mainly it was her teeth that were very painful. However, Sunday morning before church Lily ran into the bathroom and threw up in the toilet(yay for doing it there and not everywhere!). I felt so bad for her, after she was done she said, "Mommy, I'm not having fun anymore." if that doesn't pull at your heart I don't know what does. She had a weird sickness. She had a fever but it wasn't bad enough that she was down for the count, she would play with Cloey then lay down on the couch for a while and repeat!

 So her are some pictures of my sicky girls playing!

Patchwork Post

I wanted to finish posting some pictures of the girls, so my real post is down below a ways. Today is a little patchwork! Have a great day to all!

Cloey has the cutest expressions!

There's a smile!

Such concentration!

Wedding and other Pics!

Okay, so these pictures are out of order, sorry! These are some pictures from Brian's brother's wedding (Jonny), and some of the girls playing in the back yard. I don't have any of our camping trip we took over the fourth of July, I had my camera out to take with us. However, when we got to our campsite and I went to get it out it was no where to be found! I am still trying to find it! Hopefully it turns up soon. We had a lot of fun, Lily said she wanted

to live there, nevertheless neither of the girls wanted to leave. It was so nice to get away for a couple of days, it was so beautiful and not too hot! The girls loved playing in the river and throwing rocks. Cloey had fun walking around the campground looking for the campsite numbers. they were all the number 3 or 5 until we told her what they really were and then she would say the right number. On Sunday I made Lily a list with pictures of different  flowers, trees, the river, and butterflies, and she found everything on her list, she thought that was the coolest. She was worried the rest of the day if she didn't know where her list was. It was a lot of fun and really nice to have our travel trailer. We bought it in May and this is the second time we have used it. It was really nice to be able to give our dirt coated girls a bath. 

Lily loves smelling flowers and picking them,

   it was hard for her to not pick all the pretty flowers

at the temple.

Even with a short nap, by 5:30 the girls were 

very tired and not all that excited for more 

picture. They warmed up more as they

had more freedom to wander at the

   reception!

Again, they are still tired, but

they are so cute in this picture holding

hands!

Cloey loves swinging on the bars

on their swing set!

Lily was having fun going

in between the pool and the swing!

Lily and Cloey were always at the fountain when we

weren't taking pictures, they had so much

          fun looking at it and walking around it!

Cloey and Great Grandma Keeley. Great 

Grandma cooled Cloey's feet off by dipping them in

    the fountain, Cloey thought that was so funny!

Baby Girl Under Construction!

Yep, we will continue to outnumber Brian 4 to one now, adding baby girl #3! We are all very excited to bring another girl into our family! We found out on the 30th of June and Lily couldn't quite grasp it when we told her. She told me she already has a sister and that was Cloey. However, today she told me that she does have another little sister in mommy's belly. It is a lot of fun to have her so involved, we have some ultrasound pictures on our fridge and she will ask me to if she can look at the baby, or she will tell me to come and look at my baby. It is way cute. We are 99% locked in on the name Autumn, but we are still discussing a middle name. 

We had fun and busy weekend too. Jonny, Brian's brother, was married on Friday. It was absolutely beautiful, and very hot! It was really fun to have a lot of family in town that we don't get to see very often. Lily had a lot of fun at the reception that night, she probably mentions it at least 3 times a day. She tells us that "Jonny and Karie were so funny when they ate the cake and made a mess." She laughed pretty hard when they did feed each other the cake. Cloey had fun too, her favorite thing to do was to run from mom or dad. She would run in one door at the reception and come in another, she really didn't want to stay still.  Cloey is a busy little girl who loves to hug you and run! We spent the rest of the weekend with family hanging out and having fun! We celebrated the girl's cousin Abbie's 1st birthday on Saturday. It was fun to have Lily pick out the present, we got her a little princess doll and the whole way out of the store and to grandma and grandpa's she was telling us that Abbie was going to share with her. It was funny. Even better was when Grandpa Keeley was letting Cloey spray his feet and the flowers. We were all sitting outside and he walked away from her for a moment and Cloey turned around and sprayed Great Grandma Keeley! It is a good thing Great Grandma Keeley loves Cloey, she laughed about it. Good Times!

Well, Happy Fourth of July to all! Be safe and have fun! We will be going camping, so until we get back, love to all!

Here come the Keeley's!

Hey so I thought I would try this blog thing out. I had started a blog back in December of 2007, but couldn't figure out how to get the pictures to upload so I deleted that one and started over and I finally got it figured out! We are keeping pretty busy. I chase Lily and Cloey around all day and Brian is working for his brother Jason's landscaping business and he is loving it! We have had some crazy couple of months though. Many know that we are expecting our third baby and are very excited. The morning sickness is pretty much gone but it was pretty bad the first trimester and well into the second. I  was also hospitalized Memorial Day weekend for what they think was kidney stones but the doctors aren't sure. The most they could do was an ultrasound (because I am pregnant) of my kidney's and didn't really find anything. But I was in the hospital from Sunday early early morning until Tuesday evening. I need to say thank you to all of our family who helped us out so much with the girls and everything! Also our ward members really made us some fantastic dinners! We really appreciated it. I think I will stick to labor pains rather than kidney pains! They are terrible. I would much rather have the labor! Enough about that. 

I had to run to Walmart to get some yeast and string cheese to make our own stuffed crust pizza (my big craving), on the way I had the radio on and switched it to a country station. Taylor Swift's "Our Song" was on which I also have on our ipod, anyway, the chorus came on and Lily totally started singing along! It was the cutest thing, she has an amazing memory because I listen to books more than music. That is just a cute little tidbit!
