Ensign-isms

An ensignism is a story about Taylor, Alisa, Cassidy, Mckay, and Kelsey Ensign. These stories may be elaborate or mundane, but with the combined personalities of our little family, they are sure to be entertaining.

Silly Face Contest

 Recently for a Family Home Evening we went to a nearby park to play.

 Mckay and Cassidy wanted their picture taken inside the slide.
These pictures were taken right before they ran into Dad.

 Cute Kelsey
 Handsome Mckay
 Beautiful Cassidy

 After the park we went out for ice cream.
 While eating ice cream we decided to see who could make a silly face. It turns out if we put our camera up really close to a person's face, then the camera does the "silly" work for us. None of the silly-face pictures below were altered. Either our camera does funny things, or we all really look this funny up close.
 Cassidy
 Alisa
 Kelsey
 Mckay
Taylor
Personally, I think Mckay's is the funniest.

Kelsey's First Crawl


She is much quicker now, but I love how excited she gets when she knows she did it.

Meeting the Governor

 We had a special Memorial Day morning this year as we attended a Ceremony held at the Veterans Memorial Park Cemetery. My brother Grant, a member of the Salt Lake Scots Pipe Band, was chosen to play at the Ceremony and also end the Ceremony playing "Amazing Grace." The event was attended by many Veterans, Families of Fallen Veterans, and also Utah Governor Gary Herbert.

 Quick photo with the Governor.
 Several News Stations were there.
It was fun to see my brother on all the evening newscasts.

Kelsey has entered a bit of the Stranger Danger phase, and isn't comfortable with too many people, but for whatever reason, Grandpa was o.k... "this time."

Mckay's Preschool Graduation

 Mckay recently graduated from Discovery Time Preschool.
He enjoyed his Teacher, Mrs. Trisha, and learned a lot.

 For their ceremony they sang songs they had learned throughout the year, as well as took turns explaining what their favorite thing about preschool was.


 We are so proud of Mckay and the great work he did this year. He is very excited about being able to attend Kindergarden this fall.

Thanksgiving Point Gardens

  We recently visited the Thanksgiving Point Gardens.
Cassidy and Mckay were excited to have their Cousin Graham come along.

So cute together. Their eyes seem exactly the same color.
