Lake Powell

This was Beck's second trip to Lake Powell. He loved every minute of it. He spent a lot of time on the boat because it made a good play pen. He loved to go on boat rides and especially like driving the boat. His uncle Alex taught him a new word "Nandy" which means "Candy" and Beck ate his fair share. He also learned how to say "ouch" He liked to point out the moon and stars to us each night and can say "moon" I love to hear all the new little words that he is learning. " Oh" is still a big part of his vocabulary and I hope it stays that way for a long time. Beck gets a ton of attention especially from his aunts and uncles and grandparents. You can ask him where people are and he points them out. He is very lucky to have so many people who love to be with him. He is the first grandchild to invade our vacations on the Helm side and so far he is faring well.

Fun in the Sun

We spend most of our days out in the sunshine. Beck loves to get wet and learned from Grandpa Helm how to drink out of the hose. He thinks that is pretty great.

The Farm

We visited Thanksgiving Point Farm today with some friends. Beckham started singing Ei-Ei-Oh as soon as he saw the animals. I must say he had the most fun just running all around and playing in the toys for sale so needless to say he went home with a tractor.

Aunt Robyn's Wedding

Aunt Robyn's wedding was in May and all the Shipley clan came into town. Beck got to be with all his cousins at once for the first time. It was a beautiful wedding!
