Utah cont.

More family pics from our Utah trip:


My siblings and our 2 year olds. We all had a kid in 2006.

Aren't they adorable?




We miss them so much. Every time we leave Utah we spend at least 7 hours of our drive trying to figure out where Dave should apply for jobs in SLC. Maybe one day we really will move back...

We spend our drive having the same conversation (where should Brett work in SLC) maybe Brett and Dave should come up with a business plan that will take us both back to Utah!!!

why oh why oh WHY?! The problem with moving to Utah is that then you have to live there. YUCK! :)

I love these pictures and I am so excited you are coming back for a couple of days! Let's do something totally girlie and fun while you are here. Also, I need to get copies of your pictures of the kids!! They had so much fun with your kids and Cameron is still asking everyday if he can play with Luke again. And apparently now when we ask Cameron who his best buddy is, he says "LUKE!". So cute!! I would give anything to have you move back!!

It's funny how happy I am with where we are living until I go back to SLC for a visit! Then I just cry all the way home! You will have to admit though, there are a lot of pros to being out of state as well!

I don't think I would even recognize your siblings if I ran in to them. Thanks for sharing. What beautiful families!

Let's just call this paybacks

Dave got the heads up this morning that we were going to have a couple of "special" talks on reverence today as the Stake Presidency was a little concerned about how loud our sacrament meetings have become. I thought ~ great, let's prep the kids ~ I told them that they were to be on their best behavior, no snacks, no toys, no talking, you get the idea... The meeting went pretty smooth until the Bishop got up. He very tenderly started talking about how important it is that we teach our children about the sacrament...it was at that moment that my family fell a part. Eden and Luke started fighting and Liza and Tucker started screaming---did I mention we were on the second row? I grabbed Luke and put him in a body hold and motioned for Dave to get Tuck and Liza out. Dave left with Liza and Tuck (so I thought...) and next thing you know, Tucker is up on the stand running back and forth behind the Bishop. My sweet friend sitting next to me jumped up to get Tuck, but he of cours...

Child Rearing Race

My visiting brother from Utah and I were left without spouses for 4 days. This wouldn't have been such a big deal, but our kids had already been together 24/7 for 6 days and our boys couldn't think of anything better to do than fight. I don't know about you, but 1 entire day of fighting is enough to drive one mad--now times that by 4. Near the end of the week(and our rope) my brother and I had a heart to heart and posed the question~what in life could be more mentally difficult than this? The only thing I could think of (now remember, we'd just run the Ragnar) was running a marathon. Someone once told me that if you could mentally get through a marathon, you could get through anything. So, I put it to the test...I ran a... OK , not a marathon, but a 1/2. Raising children and running difficult races are so much the same. They both require so much of you emotionally, physically and mentally and yet the end reward is so gratifying. I can't express the joy I felt yester...

Facelift

It is time this blog gets a facelift! I know it is not "in season" but I don't think I want to update my widgets for at least another year. Dave and I just got back from a weekend cruise with some friends on the NCL. We got a small taste of what a real cruise was like and that was all it took. We are already planning the next, much longer one. It might be 10 years before we do it, but it is fun to plan nontheless.
