Christensen Clan

Hello from Texas!  Here are a few pictures from the last couple of weeks.  We are loving summertime and we are super excited to come to Idaho and Utah for a month!  But like Tyler and Jen, we're hoping it warms up a bit there.  Sounds too cold....

Corey and I have been running most mornings together and it's so fun.  Sometimes we get back and everyone is still asleep.  Sometimes this is what we find:) There's a TV there at the end of our bed.

                                  Happy Father's DAy Corey!  We made him a fruit pizza.

 summertime snack when the chores were done.  My friend gave us a "whirly pop" and it makes great popcorn!

 Learning how to "dress up" early.  Our fourth girl will be expert at it with all the help!

Maddie at 5:45am, headed off to girls camp! She had a great week in an air conditioned cabin.  They also had a cafeteria cabin and couldn't light a fire.  Hmmmmm... rough camp










                                      Just a teeny tiny time out for Hazel in Costco.  The little sweet girl can throw a mighty tantrum

 Well, it's not a pool like any of our neighbors have...but they use it every day and love it!  Especially this day because mom and dad got in with them.

 Clara and Nori did soccer camp this week.  They had so much fun.  I loved seeing them stick together and bravely do something new where they didn't know anyone.

 The next two pictures were taken from the truck window on our way to the temple Friday morning.  We took a picture of the first car engulfed in huge flames but it was a little too far away to tell what it was.  We pulled up next to it just as the fireman did his thing.  Needless to say we were late for the session, and we drove super safe the rest of the drive.

We have had a great couple of weeks.  Spent  time yesterday as a family at Six Flags Hurricane Harbor.  It's a water park.  We had a great time together.  In light of the tragic accident the Randall family is enduring, we have really been holding our children tight and having thankful hearts for every moment we get to spend with them.  We have not stopped praying for Jared and Becky and their girls.  Life can change in an instant. We love you all so much and look forward to seeing you soon.
