Things around here have definitely been a wee bit crazy! We have finally transferred all our pictures over to the new computer. I absolutely love it!! It has been so nice to finally have something that actually works pretty fast and I love having the internet at home so I can use it during the day when C sleeps.
We have had a fun end to the summer. Over Labor Day, O went up to Island Park with DH's parents. She loved every minute of it and told us how she saw a big moose when they were riding on the 4-wheelers. Thanks to J & S for taking her. We left on Monday and headed down to Vegas Baby with our great neighbors the Cooks and Myers. We had a
BLAST!! We stayed in St. George one night and then 2 nights at the Excalibur, in a newly remodeled room. It was great. It was so fun to have a couple's trip. I did feel a little naked without the kids but it was so much fun! We shopped, ate and just relaxed. Thanks to Ryan and Stace for driving us down in luxury!! We can't wait to do it again. Thanks to all those who watched our little nuggets while we were gone. We knew they were in such great hands. We went to see KA at MGM Grand. It was all right, a little strange. It was cool but definetly not worth the price. We've seen Mystere before at Treasure Island and I would highly recommend that instead.
The following weekend we got back we started celebrating all our September birthdays. We had our cute niece turn 13. She is so gorgeous and such a sweetheart (we could only wish O would turn out like her) We had a party for my grandma, grandpa and dad whose birthdays all fall within a few days. It was a great party. My sis, Jord, made this amazing cake (check out her blog for the picture) It was delicious. We have had such a fun summer and are sad to see it come to an end. I'm not looking forward to winter but I'm sure G is for the snowmobiling factor!! I promise I'll be better at posting now that I have everything set up and ready to go!!!
I didn't know that my dad had his eyes closed in this picture, sorry dad, but Happy Birthday!
This is my grandpa, affectionately nicknamed POP, the kids absolutely love playing with him. He turned 88 and is still a mover and shaker!
This is my Gram Micks, this picture was actually taken last year on her birthday!! She loves reading books to the kids and holding the twins with their bottles!
This is at the Excalibur pool. They've remodeled it and added some more. It was really nice!!
The girls at dinner before we headed to KA!!
One of my favorite pictures of G!! This was at FAO Schwartz in the Forum Shops at Ceasar's!! He loved playing with this piano!! I swear he just couldn't get enough of it!! He's like a little kid. It was so much fun to see him sliding all the way down. He's got some wicked skillz!
This was at the Wynn hotel. They've got some amazing waterfalls!! We ate at their dinner buffet and it was delicious. We stayed for a few hours and had our share of food!!

The beautiful days of Fall are here and I am LOVING it!!! O had her first sacrament primary program!! We were shocked when she actually at least sat up on the stand, she stood up during the songs (but no singing), but would absolutely not go anywhere near the microphone to say her part. Hey, we are making small baby steps. A little bribe doesn't hurt either. She wanted to wear her white princess dress and so we let her, trying to do anything to make her participate. It was fun and we can't believe she is almost going to be 4. We have had a lot of fun days at the park. Feeding the ducks and going down the slide. C has no fear and loves the park, still a bit nervous about the big ducks.
Best buddies, just after downing their ring pops.
O flying like Tinkerbell at gymnastics!!
Our sweet boy, making faces!! We love him to pieces!!
