Summer Fun

Lots more Summer fun photo dump!

Dinner with these lovely ladies- Heather and Megan.
 Flowers from my cute husband.
and Clara painted all of her nails while I was in bed still asleep one morning! I was actually quite impressed... Haha!
 Getting my long runs in! Going to miss these gorgeous mountains!
 Tyler drove out here the first weekend in August. He got here around 11:45pm, Played with us all day Saturday and Sunday morning, then left Sunday about 1:00pm. Talk about a quick trip! We all really needed to see him though!
We had a fun Cherry Hill day on Saturday with Luke, Amy, and kids!
 We had pizza over at their house, then headed over to Station Park to get some ice cream and let the girls play for a bit.
I love Clara's picture of us on the right. A budding photographer! ;-)
 Little Monkey Lucy!
 My dad and Candace went down to Death Hollow that same weekend....and this is the greatest photo bomb of all time, so I had to throw it in. Nice work dad! ;-)
Monday night the girls and I stayed at Amy & Lukes so they could go overnight for their anniversary! The kids were actually all so good, and maybe someday I could do 5 kids, right? Haha! It's like having 2 sets of twins and a baby. They are all so close that they love each other and fight like sisters now. It's pretty hilarious. The only picture I took was of Clara in her favorite Unicorn costume. I love her!
 Tuesday night at 5:00 my mom called to tell me that had an extra ticket to Wicked! Howard wasn't able to go, so I joined my mom and dad, and Liz to Wicked! It was seriously incredible and I'm so glad I got to go! Thanks mama!
 Carrie and her kids came into town, so Wednesday we headed down to the Museum of Natural Curiosity at Thanksgiving Point! We of course got there right as all the roads were closing for the Tour de Utah, but it was fun to see them all ride past!
 We ate lunch at Cubby's in Lehi, which was SO good!
I love these cute 5 year olds!
 The museum was awesome! Bonnie ended up getting a Grandparent pass, so I'm sure we'll be back. You easily could spend a couple of days in there! It was so much fun!
 Clara loves a good selfie! ;-)
 I think their favorite part was the fun zip line on the outside playground, and the fun jungle play area inside. Lucy could play in playgrounds for hours, so she was in heaven! We'll have to bring out swimsuits next time to play in the splash pad!
 We've had so much fun playing in Grandma and Grandpa's backyard all summer! These cute girls have made friends with all of the neighbor kids, and Lucy has actually decided she's going to marry one of the little boys- Porter. She would... Haha!
 Lots of gymnastics lessons! All about 2 minutes long....
 Clara also wrote her name for the first time! I just love her.
These girls are going to have a hard time going back to real life! As am I! I wish summer could just last forever!

I still can't believe my little Clara-bear-a is old enough to be in Kindergarten! She has absolutely loved it. These two are pretty adorable walking to school every morning together! Another great soccer season! Tyler was roped into coaching Clara's team again and wins at the best dad and coach ever! He even took Rex with him to a bunch of games and coached while Rexy was strapped to him in the baby carrier! Dad of the year! (I was at piano lessons with Lucy!) Baby Rex kept getting bigger and bigger! Dad would put Rex in his only football outfit every Saturday to watch the Utes play! Haha. Teaching him young! Rex turned 10 months old in September! Lucy's biggest fan! Lucy has bee doing SO great at soccer! Soccer camp from this summer really helped the girls a ton! She was so aggressive and even scored a few goals! Goooo Lucy! Color week for Kindergarten! Purple, Green, Blue, Yellow, Red, and Pink! While the mom's wash tables El...

it's me! I'm back. I have missed writing, so here I am. writing. so very much has happened since I first began this blog back in 2008! ah! almost 10 years ago. Time has seriously flown. I feel like I am a completely different person, and yet still exactly the same. Maybe just a little more perspective? That's a good thing right!? our family is still living the dream up here in North Dakota. We thought we were maybe coming up here for a year, and five and a half years later..... here we are! our kids have truly grown up here. Lucy is eight. Yes, eight! She has gotten to tall and gangly. She is wild and free, full of light, and joyful. Clara is six. She is full of FIRE, spice, and quite a bit of sass. She is fiercely loyal, tender, and a snuggler. Rex is a year and a half of craziness. He is so sweet, all over the place, and such a cute kid. He has his mama wrapped around his little chubby sticky finger! Tyler is the most incredible father, the world's best husband, and k...

Lucy Jane Crosland February 25, 2009 1:23am 6 lbs 12 oz 18 inches long We would like to welcome our sweet little girl Lucy to the world! It was an eventful entrance she made and we're glad she is finally here and perfect! My water finally broke Tuesday afternoon so we went into the hospital about four and they decided to start me on pitocin since other than my water breaking not too much was going on-- after being on pitocin for about a 1/2 hr I was ready for my epidural! ((again- Im not quite sure how people do this naturally- I only had 30 minutes of real contractions and was ready for all the needles in the world!) The epidural was wonderful- I highly recommend it!! Well-- at midnight I had pretty much stalled out at being dialated at a 4.5--so the doctor came in and said that basically if I hadn't dialated in the next little while much it was most likely that they were going to do a C-section-- so for the next hour me, Ty and my mom just prayed that I was dialating, and I ...
