Sunday

On Sunday we headed down to Provo to meet up with my family for the day. We went to church with Lindsay and Jason then went to their house for an early dinner. The cousins were so excited to be together...

After we left Lindsay's house we headed up to Sandy to Parker's Uncle Burke and Aunt Denny's house! We haven't seen them in a while and it was SO good to see them! I've loved them from day one and we didn't want to pass up on a chance to see them.

Everyone had fun playing in their backyard...



It was a busy day cramming as many family members as we could in one day but it was great! Next I'll post on the rest of our week in Neola!

Week WIth Morrills Part 1

We are in Utah! Yay! Parker, Tyce, and I flew in on Friday afternoon. Tyce was an angel on the plane. The flight ended up being 2 hours longer than intended because we had to fly over Chicago for 2 hours due to a severe thunderstorm around the airport. Tyce was so good and even slept for almost 3 hours! We landed about an hour before my parents came in from Oregon with the twins. We waited behind security so we could see them right off the airplane. I was so excited to see them and they seemed excited to see us as well. It felt so good to be back together as a family! Mom, Christine, and Tegan picked us up from the airport and it was so good to see them. Tegan is looking so grown up and Christine is 37 weeks pregnant! Mom still looked the same, beautiful! We said goodbye to my parents (which was hard, but we'll have our time in Oregon with them) and headed up to Park City. Morrills rented a house there for 4 days. That night everyone finally got to Park City and the fun could get started!

Saturday we headed up to the resort and shopped, went on rides, etc...
Tyce and Cole were so excited about the bunk beds...Cute Jack watching cartoons in my bed...

Jackson and Josh loved the bungee trampoline...On his first try Josh did a back flip! He even did a double one! He was so proud...

Jackie, Christine, and I...

My wonderful in laws who made all the fun possible...
Tyler, Jackie, Cole, and Kate, beautiful family!

After we left the resort we headed back to the house for lunch, naps, then pool time!

All the cousins! Too cute...
Tyler, Parker, Bart, and Tegan had a hilarious diving contest...
Sunday we spent with my family (post to come) and Monday we came to Neola! I will do those posts soon. :) It's been so nice to be with family. My boys are just loving time with their cousins, aunts, uncles, and grandparents. They have all been really good and sleeping really good, which is always a worry when you travel across country. More to come!

Fun in Oregon

My mom has texted me some cute pics of the boys so I thought I'd post them on here. It sounds like they are having tons of fun and being totally spoiled. That's what grandparents are for right?!

Here they are at my dad's office, me and my sisters used to play with the same things...They went on a hike at Silver Creek Falls...They had a picnic lunch there and Josh THOROUGHLY enjoyed his cheetos...Hiking with Grandpa...They thought this cave was really cool...They got to go rock climbing at the Croc Center. Last year neither of them would do it, but this time they were brave! My mom said they had lots of determination and did great!Joshy the rock climber...Cute Jackson and Grandpa...Cute Joshy...
I miss my boys but it is sure nice having just one kid at home! Tyce is loving all the attention he gets too! In two days we'll be in Utah! YAY!!!

Jackson and Josh Go To Oregon!

My dad came out here on Friday to get the boys to bring them to Oregon for the week! They have been looking forward to this for a long time. Luckily we got to spend some time with them before they all left this afternoon.

Yesterday we went to lunch at Guapo's, then headed to Signal Bay for a while...Then we decided to head over to our neighborhood pool for some more swimming!

My dad was blowing water at Tyce through the noodle and he was laughing so hard...Then we came home, had some lasagna for dinner, got jammies on, and did some fireworks that Parker had bought that we hadn't used...Daddy and cowboy Tyce doing a sparkler...Joshy with his sparkler...Jack with his sparkler..Today we went to the gym then came home and got packed up. I dropped them off at the airport and they were so dang excited and cute. Suddenly they seemed so grown up. I know they won't miss me much because they will be having so much fun with grandma and grandpa but they were still hugging me and Jack walked away yelling, I LOVE YOU MOMMY! I held in my tears, and I'm proud of myself. Thanks mom and dad for taking them! Enjoy my boys!When I came home from the airport I guess Tyce was antsy to go somewhere (he woke up from his nap asking to go see pampa!) so him and Parker headed off to buy a new drill. I guess since it's 5pm I better get showered since we're going out with friends to dinner tonight! It will be a low key week with just Tyce at home but I'm looking forward to it. Friday morning we leave to go to Utah! We're spending a week with Parker's fam then we're renting a car and driving to Oregon to spend a week with my fam! Can't wait!!!

Free Slurpees and Good Friends

Today was free slurpee day at 7-11 so we headed over there after the gym. The kids were so excited. I love my friend Kimberly and her two kids Jake and Brianna. Jake and Tyce are only 7 months apart and Brianna and the twins are only 1 month apart. They all play so cute together and it's so nice having a friend to spend my days with. We go to the gym together, then off to the pool, park, mall, whatever. They leave this week for Wisconsin for a month and we will miss them! Luckily we will be gone for two of those weeks.

Here's the clan sitting on the curb at 7-11 enjoying their slurpees... Josh, Brianna, and Jackson...

We are counting down the days until my dad comes on Friday and will take the boys to Oregon on Saturday! I am so going to miss them but they are so excited and think they are so cool because they get to ride on the airplane with just Grandpa Barraclough and no mommy or daddy. Soon enough we'll be joining them! Can't wait to see everyone!!!

Tyce

Tyce wakes up every morning and lays in his bed talking to himself. His two favorite things to say are, "nooo we not go to pool yet!" and "juice cereal juice cereal." He loves breakfast (which is good seeing as he rarely eats dinner). Today I was busy doing something and he was hungry so he got his own spoon and helped himself...

Here he is digging in...

Chewing away...Time for some more...

He cracks me up. As soon as he saw me looking at him he goes, "sorry mommy sorry." Haha. He is growing up so fast. We are counting down the days until we go home! In 10 days Jackson and Josh will be on a plane with Grandpa Barraclough flying to Oregon! My parents are going to have them a week before the rest of us come out. They are so excited to see everyone!
