Carly Crosland

Lucy, Cody, Macey, Carter, and Blake-- all looking at the sea lions and the walrus! The first week we were in Utah we went to the zoo on Wednesday! I love living so close to both my parents and my in-laws because Lucy was able to go to the zoo with all of her cousins on both sides! The new exhibit opened- Rocky Shores, and honestly I have NEVER seen the zoo that packed! It was crazy, but even though parking was a nightmare, the kids still had so much fun, and we were still able to see all of our favorite animals! I didn't get a picture of Bonnie, or Melissa, but it was so fun to have all the girls and all the kids go! Lucy was in heaven with BOTH of her grandmas there! What a lucky little girl!

Mackayla- 10 mo, Callie 12 mo, Clara 13 mo, Macey 3 1/2, Lucy 3, Blake 3 3/4 (haha), and Cody is 5. Sunday night we were able to get all of the grandkids together at the Crosland's for the first time in over a year! I felt so bad- Tyler's whole family was finally able to get together, except for him! Poor guy! We were celebrating Jessi's graduation from high school! She has always seemed like an adult to me, but now it's official! She also left for Europe for 3 weeks the next morning! Lucy duck! The kids had so much fun, and it is so fun to see them all play together!  This was the first time we were able to meet Mackayla, and that all the little girls were together! They are all so darling!  Kevin, LaRae, and Ed  

We made it onto the airplane! and more importantly-- the airplanes made it to Utah! Lucy was thrilled to be on the airplane, and we only had one minor breakdown before Lucy absolutely crashed! Here's to hoping the trip back goes just as well! We have been having a blast since we have been here, and Lucy has been in heaven playing with her grandmas, cousins, friends, etc... Monday we were able to go to Cherry Hill with my mom, Candace, Mel, Carter, and our friends Michelle, Izzy and Ruby-- we loved it! We will miss playing there all summer! cute cousins.... Tuesday we got together with my friends Michelle, Brooklyn, and Emily and let the kids run wild! So fun to see my friends again... that night I was finally able to get my cafe rio with my mom and coleen! We went to city creek that night, and did some shopping for little Lucy. She had a blast running around 77 kids, and is so silly lately! Clara has finally...
