Fun at the beach

Above the Corona Del Mar beach, there is a grassy area that we go have a picnic. We thought this would be a cute picture. Dave is holding Ethan, I am holding Kate, and Greg is holding Annalise. 


We had them turn around. I think it would have been cuter is Kate had been able to turn better. As it was, she was holding on for dear life up there.


After being on my shoulders, Kate decided she wanted to be on Eth's shoulders. Dave had to help of course.

They played in the picnic blankets. I think Kate looks so cute in this picture. 


My beautiful wife made this picture look good.


Kate was just lounging. I thought it was cute. I think she felt so big sitting in the chair.


Family shot.


I put both up because I liked how the one above was framed but the one below has a cuter smile on Kate.


Nichole and Baby Collin.


Anna didn't want to participate in the Williams family picture so Kate was a substitute.



Sunset at the beach. Smog sunsets are the most beautiful.


A few days later all the kids and moms went to the beach. Kate started not liking the sand and how it got all over her. Here is Anna.


That didn't stop Kate from looking cute and loving her sunglasses.


Eth said the water was cold, as if it is ever different on the West coast. They really love playing together.

Stacey and Tyson in town

Stacey and Tyson were in California a few weeks ago. Stacey was Jen's roommate during their freshmen year at BYU. Stacey and Tyson came over to visit with her daughter, Becca. She was a cutie. She was very calm but when she wanted something she let us know.



Kate loves babies (and will hopefully continue to do so when her baby brother comes).


She even posed for a picture.


We went to Wahoo's to eat and I think Becca wanted some.


Here is Tyson and Stacey. It was fun to see them and catch up a little. They were only in town for a little bit but we were glad they took some time away from Stacey's family to visit with us.

Fourth of July

We had a fun Fourth of July this year. Our Fourth excitement started early thanks to Jen who made the girls matching dresses. She is a great aunt for these little girls. They love her so much. Despite the fact that the girls love the dresses they weren't too cooperative with pictures. We did get one really cute one though. 


Katelynn is obsessed with these flowers lately. She picks them any time she gets.


Katelynn learned to do summersaults a little bit ago. We finally got video of the fact. Look at her. She's a natural.

Katelynn is still learning to be soft- she is obsessed with bopping everyone.


At least we got great pictures of Ethan and Anna.



The kids got glow sticks. They were very excited.


Here Katelynn is amazed with her flower and can't take the time to smile for the picture!



These kids love each other so much. The picture that night turned out SO cute.



Glow sticks with Papa.

Catch up Pictures

This summer has flown by. We have been very busy but don't have many pictures to show for it. We are getting sad that we will be leaving back for Utah in about a month.

We went to the zoo on a free day and the kids had tons of fun. 

We were able to get Katelynn's hair into a ponytail. I just think it is adorable even though it doesn't really stay. 

I got out my old jewelry box with all my play jewelry. Katelynn and Annalise love playing with it.  

Baby Collin was blessed two Sundays ago. He is SO cute and getting so big. We love his chubby cheeks and double chin.
