Our New Car.... well its 2 months old now.

After much delibration, we decidede that we'd better try and see if we could get anything ($) out of Jeff's Jeep and Ann's Lancer... and we did. I always told Jeff that "I'll never own a mini-van", but now that we have one.... I LOVE IT ! This car was designed for families! We love taking it camping and to different state parks, it holds all our Junk and is really compatable to our needs. It even has a hitch for the Bike Carrier! So for all of you out there with kids, never say never...these things are awesome!

Daddy does Ehre's Hair

This morning, I was gone for the Primary Program Rehersal, and Jeff took the kids. He was wonderful, he made the breakfast, got them dressed and even fixed Ehre's Hair! He's such a wonderful dad!

Ehre and Minni's Play Date

We enjoyed a fun day! Minnie came over to play for a day with Ehre and they had a blast, during nap time while I was taking care of Benjamin, they got into my make up! What a beautiful job they did and as you can see they are now ready for a night out on the town! After cleaning them up we packed a snack and went to visit Jeff on campus and play near the fountians!

Our Trip to Utah

A SHORT OUTLINE OF OUR TRIP
1. Great flight to Utah, Benjamin has been a little sick but hey he was still really good.
2. Our visit starts out with a dental visit that makes us realize how important cavity prevention is. We enjoy seeing friends and their growing families, play in the park and meet for dinner.
3. Wedding Plans are underway, we prepare for a wet reception, and have dinner with the Maas Family and Grandma and Grandpa Millett.
4. Wedding plans all go really well, and it is a beautiful ceremony.
5. Jeff accidently cuts himself = 8 stitches.
6. Benjamin starts throwing up...maybe he isn't getting better at all. Since he is getting dehydrated we decide to go visit the ER, and test them on their compency...well they made a few mistakes, I guess they could use a little more training on simple procedures.
7. Ehre is sick now too... this is getting really fun!
8. Now that Uncle Spencer and Grandpa Mark are sick Ehre is starting to feel better.
9. By now Ann & Jeff are SO ready to go back to IN...crazy we thought this would never happen.
10. Confrence weekend is great.
11. Jeff hikes Orderville Canyon with friends, despite the snow and cold weather while camping, they have a great time.
12. Ann's dental work is now finished. We enjoyed FHE with Christy and Lief, and visiting Grandma Dawn.
13. Time to go back to UT we fly home.

AND THATS IT!

Plaing @ the Maas Waterpark!

.... a home isn't complete with out friends coming over to enjoy some fun in the sprinklers during a hot and humid August Day!

Another Trip to the Indy 500 Museam

this would be trip #3 but it was just as much fun as the 1st. We took Jason, Marcella, Sofia...and Baby #2. I won't include all the details but here a few pics of a fun trip!

Face Painting @ Turkey Run State Park

Sofia and Ehre wanted to get their faces painted while we were at Turkey Run State Park, Ehre chose to have a sun, and Sofia wanted a green Mountian. We love having family live so close, these two have a lot of fun, when they have plenty of room to roam.

"clipping the lawn"

Well we have only 20 feet of lawn, but to us its a huge back yard... The new sod grew in well and finally we needed to mow it for the first time. We went to rent the "weed wacker" from the office but it was a friday afternoon, and the office was closed... Since family would be arriving in a few hours we pulled out the scissors and did it the old fashioned way! Ben loved playing in the grass with us.. and in less than an hour our yard looked great!
