"Cassidy's Day"

September holds a lot of memories. One of the memories is when the 3 of us became a forever family. We were sealed to Cassidy in the Mesa Temple on September 2nd, 2006.

We have a special day and name it "Cassidy's Day". This means we let Cassidy decide what we will do as a family for the entire day.

This year she wanted to hike up Helen Hunt Falls. We love being in the outdoors and the scenery is so beautiful! We hike up to the top and enjoy the view. It's been fun taking family up there when they visit. Cassidy enjoys the flowers and sitting on the rocks. At this time of year the park's office is still open so we had the chance to learn more about the animals, rocks, and other facts about this park.








After our hike we got some lunch and then Cassidy wanted to head to the pool to go swimming. Cassidy has become more and more confident in swimming. She loves her blue noodle. Her noodle has given her more practice of swimming in the deep end of the pool rather than just holding onto me. The other day she actually let me take her noodle and she tried swimming to me on her own. She's getting better and better. Derek and I enjoyed swimming in the pool too. Derek even gave his girls a ride on his back with both of us holding on. Of course we also have to play a game of shark and minnows.




For dinner Cassidy wanted to go to Texas Roadhouse.
