Another MONSTER Update. This time, for August.

Hello again all! Well, summer has been busy, and full of fun. Here's a snapshot of the summer so far. Lots of nice weather and sunshine.


Here's some photos of me and Mommy in the garden. Notice my hulla girl outfit! Haha!


Me and Gavin went to the Science Gallery at the museum, then to Baked Expectations later for lunch.


Lazy Sunday morning. Fell asleep after waking up too early. Then, Mommy came in later, and found Gavin up and having a good time!

ROAD TRIP TO GRAND FORKS!

We all went down to Grand Forks for a little R & R at the new Canad Inn's, with their great waterpark. Here's some photos.

Chillin' in the room (which was AWESOME by the way!)

Standing in front of the kiddiepool area. Strike a pose!

The big bucket dump. You can (barely) see Daddy in the 1st of these 2 photos.

Grandma and Grandpa lounging by the side of the waterpark.

Good morning! I like these king size beds here!

Gavin's been having fun out here too! Havin' a bath in the sink at the trailer! Still fits (but not for long!)

Daddy's new tattoo (ouch!) It's healed since this photo was taken.

In the new gazebo (during construction)

After a day at the beach, it's nice to unwind and watch a DVD with some popcorn. It's tough roughing it camping. ;)

Even when camping, Taelyn manages to find some dress-up play time. Even TANNER! Haha!


Lots of nights around the campfire, overlooking the lake. You can see the newly completed gazebo in these photos.
