THE NEWTON'S

Here are some random pictures from the reunion. My brother Aaron, sister Rachel and her hubby Nathan. My sister's little dog Bubbles that my kids are in love with, and some pictures from when we went up to the lake and the kids got to go canoeing, and fishing. The last one is that night at the rodeo when we showed up and realized there weren't any seats. My mom and kids sat on a 4 wheeler of one of my brothers friends...

At our Family Reunion all the guys took off and did a slot canyon hike one morning. Us girls were left with all the kids and Amanda took us on a hike that was kid friendly. She thought the kids would like to walk around the base of the rocks and see the interesting shapes, but the kids all surprised us and climbed around the rocks just like they would a backyard playset! I've got thumbnails below, but click on the pictures individually and you'll get a much larger picture to look at. The kids had us girls busy keeping up with them! :)

And finally... some swim meet pictures of Ashley. She is swimming in our neighborhood swim team this year. I forgot my camera at the first meet and our friends were there. I asked him to take a few pictures of Ashley for me and he gave me a cd a week later with like 30 pictures! He's got a great camera and got some good shots of her swimming her heats. :)

Here's a few pool pictures, Angela modeling with straight hair one day, and Alex in his favorite seat during the summer- the gaming chair.

Ashley's family birthday party... the letter at the end is where Rich printed out a picture of a hampster and told her she can put the paper hampster in the cage- and it would be much easier for her to take care of... in tiny print on the bottom it said that if she really thought she needed a real live breathing one that we could go and pick one out. Which she did! We don't have any pictures of her new pet Ella yet, but I'm sure we'll get some taken soon.

Angela had her birthday last week. We had her first ever friend party and I think they all had a fun time. :)
