Mama

Lucy is really trying to talk these days. Today I asked her to say Mama and she said 'Haw-ee' (Holly). This has become her favorite word this week. When she can't sleep in her crib I hear her cryin 'Haw-ee, Haw-ee' over and over. Apparently she is too cool to call me her mom. Too funny.

First Swimming Lessons

We took a mom & tot class this August with some neighbor kids. The water was cold, it was right during Lucy's nap time, most days Lucy didn't feel like participating, and we had to miss half the classes. Other than that, we had a great time!

5 years ago

We got married on August 18 in the Salt Lake Temple. This picture was taken a week before the big day. Pictures to come of our 5 year celebration in Cancun!

The Trail

This is the trail on the way to the cabin. We had a few minutes to wait until the key arrived so we took a walk. Well, Lucy took a run. I don't think this girl knows how to walk anymore!

The Cabin

We had a blast hanging at the cabin last weekend with the family. We roasted, toasted, sang 'goodnight' to everyone about 3 times, played in the dirt, fell in the dirt, and just had a good ole time. Next year we may sleep over with ya'll!

Undercover Grocery Shopping

This lasted about 15 minutes and I was laughing the whole time. She is pretty funny.

The Park

Another great lunch spot. 'The Park' across from Liberty Park. So yummy. We love their burgers and a stroll at the park afterwards. You must try and see for yourself.

waking up

Lucy woke up with her shirt over her head with her binki still attached a few weeks ago. Too cute. She was in love with this idea. We will be sure to not let this habit continue!

The Fork

In June Lucy insisted on using a fork. It was so cute those first few days. Since then she has mastered the spoon also.

4th of July

We had a fun 4th filled with the parade, grandpa's yard, cousins, bbq, swimming, visiting, laughing, and Lucy's first (of many) smarties. Of course Rhett had to work so the girls enjoyed the day on their own.

swinging tandem

Lucy and Lance loved the awkward spider swinging.

Aristos

One of my favorite restaurants is Aristo's by the U. I especially love it in the summer when you can enjoy the patio. These days we usually take a trip to the park after. Lucy is finally taking a liking to the grass.

Rhett's Birthday

For Rhett's birthday we headed up to Park City. We at at Good Thymes, it was delicious. Then we hit the outlets. Good times! Then we came home and had a watermelon birthday cake! This is the cake my Grandma always had for her birthday on June 17. I thought it was fitting because Rhett likes watermelon ALMOST as much as she did! I hope you had a great birthday. Love you to the moon.

On the way up I gave Lucy a Fig Newton (one of her favorite treats). Apparently they were more fun to play with than eat. It was EVERYWHERE. And they are sticky.
