Miss me?

Hello?! Have you missed us?  There is too much to catch up on so another day I will retrace my steps but for now, here is a little update!

Seth: Working and playing with his dog! Sometimes he makes time for us! Just kidding.  He is liking his job and has tons of time to play with his family (and his dog).  Build our chicken coop this spring/summer (it will probably go into fall as well) and is enjoying 'projects' with Logan and his dad.

Courtney: Helped put on Stake Girl's Camp in June (the hardest thing I've ever done).  Did a sprint triathlon, ran a half marathon and is busy busy busy with 3 growing kiddos!  Loving life and just trying to keep my head above water! ;)

Logan:  Just entered 1st grade!! Holy moly where has the time gone?  He is getting so big and loves to play with friends, drive his monster truck and ride horses with dad and grandpa.  Kindergarten got better after that last meeting (see the post before this).  He is so much fun! Lovin' this boy!

Chloe:  So so sweet and loves to sing!!! She is the little mother hen of the hens and her little brother! She pulls the only girl card every once in a while but can melt you with her simple smile and dimple :-) and her long blonde hair! She is 4 and ready for 'dance or gymnastics'.  Depends on the day which one she wants!

Mason: Growing up so fast.  Talks like he's 5, bosses us all like he's 30 and melts my heart.  He is now a 'big boy' and has seemed to grow up over night! He is so much fun and keeps us all in stitches!


Seth had a class in San Diego this year that allowed us to go as a family a few times.  While daddy went to school/work we went to Legoland, Sea World, the beach, aquarium, museum, water parks and whatever else we wanted to do.  It was so much fun!  We also had the chance this summer to spend some time in the mountains (Alpine and Graham).  It was so nice to escape this blasted heat in Arizona!

That is us in a nutshell this year! ;) No promises on blogging more but I'll try! Here are some pictures of our adventures!

 Sand castles in January in San Diego.  A little chilly there that time of year but totally fun!
 Chloe was in LOVE with the guy at Legoland! She kept giving him hugs.  It was so funny!
 Our boat ride with our hotel.  Again, a little chilly in January but it was so much fun! Kids love being on the ocean!
And what can I say about that face! Even with his bean burro all over it, still so stinkin' cute!
