Maylee is ONE

Maylee turned one on August 5th. I know that was awhile ago, but it kind of got a little crazy. I can't believe how fast time goes. It feels like yesterday that this little angel entered our lives. She is such a blessing in our lives and we love her so much. So here are some pics of her and then her Birthday Party.

She was terrified of the fire.


playing duck duck goose.

opening presents. she was hilarrious!


Sitting in the Queen chair.

She is so funny. she is totally going to

live a musical life.(I think it is partly because

her father breaks into song randomly)

This was her first present of the

day we couldn't wait to see

her with it so we gave it to her

early, before the other kids were up.

Life

Well I haven't been as good about keeping the blog updated as I had hoped. Life is BUSY, who'd of thunk. My sister had her baby back in August and he ended up in Primary Children's hospital for a few weeks. That was really crazy, the kids did really well considering they were either at grandma's or home without mom and dad. Samuel, the baby, was finnaly released and is doing really well. He is super cute and cuddly! We are looking a houses. WOW!! it is a lot of work and takes forever. I think we have looked at about 90 houses now. It is a lot more stressful than I thought it would be. Timothy is working hard and loving his job for the most part. I think every job has its ups and downs. Maylee is growing up so fast it is hard to beilieve she used to be as small as Sam. She and Sarah, her cousin who is almost two, are super troublemakers when they get together. They love eachother. When everything got settled and all the kids and the baby came home Maylee ran up to Sarah and gave her a huge hug. It was so super cute! I have applied for a homehealth job and am just waiting to hear back on if I got the job or not.

Yes I am Finally updating

Well this summer has been super crazy!!! Timothy graduated( wha hoooooo)!!! We had lots of fun down in Glendale with all our friends. We miss them tons and tons, but are excited that we are all moving on to new a new stage of life. We went on two family vacations which were a blast! WE went to St. George with the Smoots and to Timpanogos cave, and boating with the Bowdens. All in all it has been a fun filled summer and super busy.

this was the one time we went out on the boat. It was
so much fun and I only had to take a few benadryl.
Maylee was so cute. She fell asleep on me. Thanks
Holly and Justin it was a blast!

This was our group for the cave. We saw some really awesome
formations in the caves and had a lot of fun just hanging out with family.

Amber and I hung out a lot. We love you Amber!

This is all of us on the way up to the cave the kids

This was at the dinosaur park we had so much fun
Eve just hung out with us the whole time. Maylee loved it.
We saw so many cool fossils and reconstructions.

This is at Zion park. Maylee was so funny she
loved biting the camel pack to get a drink.

this was at Weeping rock. Isn't it pretty.

We had tons of fun hiking and being with the family.

This is in Phoenix when Timothy graduated. We rented
a condo (thanks mom and dad) and had a blast!

It was a really long drive but Maylee did really well.
She even ate while we drove.

Easter

Easter was so much fun. It is a wonderful time to get to gether with family

and friends to celabrate the atonment of our Savoir. It was so much fun

to be with family for Maylee's first Easter. I love my families so much

and am so grateful for the love and support they give us.

Easter day we went to Grandma Bowden's

it was so much fun. Maylee loved chasing the eggs

and seeing her aunts and uncles!
