We made it!

It's Sunday and we are finally settled and rested. On Thursday afternoon we started our drive, it wasn't a long drive, but Max just happened to get sick before we left and threw up at least 7 times. We had to stop every hour to clean him up. I felt so bad for him. We were in the middle of nowhere so it wasn't like we could stop, and I couldn't cuddle him. Then when we finally got here we had to unpack and Max just started feeling better today, so he has been really needy.
Today was great though, we went to Holly's for dinner and Max had a great time with his new friends. I am pretty excited about this summer. I know it's going to be a blast. I love new adventures!

FOR RENT






After almost 9 months on the market our house has not sold yet! It has been a little frustrating. The prices keep dropping and we're at the point where we know it probably won't sell, unless we give it away! The market is just not where it needs to be! So last night we decided we are going to try and rent it. We are asking $800 a month. It has 3 bedrooms and 2 1/2 baths and we are leaving the washer and dryer. If you know anyone that would be interested please let me know! We are crossing our fingers!

Well, I can't believe it, but in a week and a half we are going to be in these lovely apartments in Phoenix , AZ. I am actually really excited. Mike's girlfriend from high school lives there, and we are going to hang out all the time. It will be much better than North Carolina, and I even had a blast there! We expect to come back to Utah very tan!

Crazy Cake!

PLEASE don't look too close, but here is my latest cake creation. I made this for Michelle's daughter Emmy. She got tubes in her ears today. Hopefully, it will brighten her day! It was fun to play around with the bright colors!

The Wii

Mike's brother Dan and his family came over for dinner last night, and we all decided the kids would love to play the Wii. Oaklyn was totally into it. Her face says it all. We were laughing SO hard! She was running in the game, and her arms were swinging back and forth so fast! She was so sad when she didn't win, she wanted to keep playing until she did.
Here's another pic. This is such a good pic to demonstrate the different personalities of the kids. Oaklyn is very sassy, and as you can see, competitive. Connelly and Max are very laid back kids. It was so fun watching them play.
After a while Max got into to. He is screaming "GO, GO!" I love it!
Max was exhausted by the time they left. He didn't complain when we finally put him down.

A weekend in St. George!

Last week Andie had a dance competition in St. George so me and my mom went to watch. Max was so excited to see her. He kept hugging and kissing her. He copied everything she was doing from the time she walked in the door. Andie is so good with him and she's just getting to the age where she wants to babysit. She's not old enough, of course, but I do let her change his diaper occasionally; don't worry, she begs me to do it!
Here's my cute Andie, the one with her arms out, at Dixie State College. Her team took 1st place for their lyrical dance and 4th for their jazz routine. I was so proud of her. She is already a great dancer, and she's only 9!
This was right before the awards. She made me rip her fake lashes off because they were "driving her crazy!" Look at her big luscious lips! Isn't she a babe!
When we got back to Cedar City Max was still in his P.J's because his dad was in charge! We bought some little dinosaurs that grow when you put them in the water. He was very thrilled to have them. What a great family I have!
