Morgan and many changes!!!

Morgan turned 11 on June 18th. Where did my baby go? It has been amazing to watch her change and become a little lady whom we adore. She is still great and loves her family, the gospel, being a big sister (most of the time). She makes having 4 kids easier. I couldn't have asked for a better 1st child. The only things she wanted for her birthday were to get her ears pierced, and to decorate her new bedroom. Ears accomplished, bedroom is still in progress. It was a whole family affair to the piercing place with Morgan. She didn't even flinch during the whole process; what a tough kid! She picked our some pretty little diamonds for now(she is truly a girl) , and pearls for when she can change them. She hasn't stopped grinning since and loves her new addition.

Morgan graduated from 5th grade and is moving on to 6th grade (JUNIOR HIGH!!!). Here she is with some great kids she went to school with. Friends make all the difference. We have been lucky!!
Miss Smith has been a great teacher this year. We will miss her and her great teaching ability. On to bigger things now---Junior High. We wish her the best.

Alex is officially a Kindergartner!!!!

Time sure does fly when your having fun!!! (or going crazy). Alex went to the same pre-school as Samantha and loved it. She didn't care about learning anything, but loved playing with friends. Here is Alex and her great sisters celebrating her success with her. I can't believe I will have 3 Boyer kids in school and only 1 little man at home. It was only yesterday that Morgan started kindergarten, and now she is going into junior high. Sigh......
Alex and her favorite teacher Miss Stacey.
Our little graduate walking down the isle. What a precious girl she has been.... Most of the time..... We can't wait to see how much she grows in kindergarten.

Like Father Like Son


Chris LOVES the movies, and apparently Michael does too. I took the kids to "Toy Story 3" today and Michael actually sat!!!!!! He only kept his glasses on for about 1/3 of the movie (More than expected), ate a bunch of popcorn, drank most of my coke (and he is actually still napping!!), and didn't leave our row once!!

100% Boy

I broke my camera last year, and it has only been working 1/2 time, until I completely lost it!!! The kids love photography also (like father like kids), and Michael loves anything to do with electronics so somewhere between the 4 of them it came up missing. Surprise surprise!! My Dear Husband has been looking for a new camera, so I finally got one for Mothers Day (Thanks so much Chris). Now that we have photos again, we are back. (It's not like we don't have a few other cameras around the house, just not quite accessible when I want them to be, or as portable as my new one!!). I thought I would share a few photos of the little man we are all obsessed with, our Michael Luke.


During the pool construction (Which should be complete and filled next week!!!), our back yard has become a mud pit. As most boys, Michael has been in heaven. It is difficult to have him in the back yard and not end up just like this. It is fun to watch him wiggle his toes way down deep in the mud and not care one bit that he is dirty. It makes for fun hose time and bath time.

This boy loves to give kisses. WIDE OPEN, WET KISSES!! One day he might get the concept on closed mouth kisses. Until then, we just accept them and love everyone we get, slobber and all.
Our little handsome boy. It is quite different dressing boys for church vs. little girls. Quite easier I think. I think he looks great!! Who could resist this adorable little boy, dimples and all.
With the new house, much work is needed and the ladder has made frequent appearances. Michael loves to climb and has mastered up and down the ladder. It is fun to watch his excitement as he reaches the top again, and again, and again.

I will post more later about the rest of us at the Boyer house later. The girls are all swimming this year on the Barkers ridge swim team, Morgan will be graduating from 5th grade and moving on to junior high (I don't know if we are ready for this yet), Samantha is graduating from Kindergarten and Alex from Pre-School. Wow, a lot of graduations and milestones coming up.

Dreams do come True!!

This year was incredible with the kids at Disney. We couldn't have asked for better ages (I guess they are all great ages). It was very fun to watch Sam and Alex just adore the every princess as they thought they were real. The twinkle in their eyes at all the great sights, firework displays, the many characters and shows is Magic!


Christmas evening after a special meet and greet with the characters.

Mickey and Minnie came to our hotel for 4 nights in a row for 4 hours each. It was a special treat. Michael wasn't feeling to great one night so we stayed at the hotel and hung out with Mickey and Minnie for hours as they played and winked at him all night.
Alex's favorite costume has been her Minnie costume. We just couldn't pass up this opportunity to get a great photo. I think she makes a great Minnie!!
We had a special visitor Christmas Eve. The girls had to put in their last minute request, which all were answered. Thanks to grandma for such special PJ's. What a great Christmas. We love Disney and Christmas, especially together.
