life as of late

Tyce is 9 months old already! He's adorable and sweet and such a fun baby! He is army crawling all over the place and I just love it.
Every day that Jared has off is such a blessing! We try to pack as many activites together as we can. He is working so many hours I could cry right now talking about it, but all I can say is that I love the time we do have together. Last Saturday we hiked up Bridal Veil falls in Provo.

Tyce is SUCH a great sleeper. Jax used to fall asleep like this when he was younger, just totally chill with hands behind the head.
Jax enjoyed spending time with the cousins at the Thanksgiving Point petting zoo.



Jax loves his Uncle Chase and always asks "to go high in the sky with uncle chase"
We rode the lift up at Sundance Resort and it was so much fun. Talk about amazing scenery. Karen and I belted out some nice Sound of Music tunes as we were walking- it felt a little like Switzerland to me:) Thanks Bryant and Karen for the fun day!



And high in the sky again... chase is very strong to keep up with Jax
I love my double and I love going for walks with the boys. Jax still can't stand it when Tyce touches him, but I'm making him deal with it.

Fun with family

We have been busy these past few weeks with lots of family activities: golf tournaments, weddings, farewells, playdates- just fun with family. Here's a few highlights.Jared's Nephew JD was married in the Bountiful Temple. Here are all of Jax's cousins on Jared's side.
Golfing with my dad and brothers is one of my favorite things to do. It's just entertaining!
My oldest brother Lance.
We went to the Scera pool in Orem and Jax has a blast! He loved the water slide the best.



Without my knowledge Jax shared his chocolate graham crakers with Tyce while on a long ride in the car. I should have known something was up because he was happily cooing more than usual. He really enjoyed his chocolately treat.
Unlce Chase loves playing with the kids. Tyce didn't quite know what to think of this game :)
Tyce and cousin Riley
Cutie!!! Time for a hair cut.
Jax and daddy playing together on the swing set Jared grew up playing with.

happy family
Preston is leaving Wednesday on the mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I am so proud of him and his decision to serve the Lord in Texas. Sunday was his missionary farewell and he gave such a great talk. I love you Preston!

Loving this boy! He is so much fun.
Any week now and I'll be extra busy with this little guy crawling around.
Our backyard is pretty fun. The view is great. Jax loves his turtle pool and has been spending the last week wearing only a diaper and shirt. Ahh, sweet summer.

just happy.
