Summer Fun!

We didn't go anywhere as a family this summer because we had a vacation spot right here in town. We practically have been LIVING at Grandma and Grandpas lake house having a blast tubing, skiing, going to the beach, and catching fish. It has been so much fun! What are we going to do when is starts getting cold again?
We are still the fun couple right? I can't believe I can still do this! (And only after 8 weeks after having a baby.) I am pretty proud. It might be lame to brag, but I don't have much to brag about these days, so i'll take what i can get :)
Grandpa taught the kids (and I) to fish this summer. Here is Syds first "fshhhh".
Momma and CC on the boat getting ready to tube it up!
D's first fish! Wahoo!
Dadda with his new baby girl Macey. So happy!

Eww Worms.
WEEHOOO!


We also had a lot of fun just hanging out in town. The library had an awesome reading program that had events three days a week. It was great. Here is Dylan helping with the "music man" during one of the music programs. He loved it.
Play Time at home!

Utah Day 3

I was so excited to find out that my parents new apartment was located just one block away from the Salt Lake City Temple. A few mornings before the family woke up, I was able to take Macey for a walk around Temple square. What an amazing and spiritual place. Here we were coming back from church Sunday morning.
We spent a lot of time on the rooftop of the Condo my parents are in. It has an awesome view, and lots of space to play.

Utah Day 2, The MS 150


The MS 150 is a bike ride that is consists of 150 miles in two days. It takes place in Logan Utah every June. My Cousin Karey has organized a team for the last three years to ride in honor of my mom, but I have never been able to go until this year due to pregnancies and babies (even this year Macey was only 10 weeks old). The greatest part about the event is that my mother gets to ride the last 5 miles or so with the team by her side. It was amazing and I was so glad to be there. Tim and I ran by her side the entire time helping her steer and lift her wrists to make it over that “hump” of each rotation. It was special for me to be a part of that, and to once again see mom work through her struggles. She has come a long way and I am so proud of her.
It was so fun seeing all of the kids together. Lexi is getting so big, and Aliya too! It was fun having Everyone together.

Utah Day 1

June came and went so quickly! I love summer! I was able to go without Sydney and Dylan to Utah last month to support my mom in her MS bike ride, and introduce baby Macey to the family. It was an important trip and I am am so grateful to those that made it happen (namely my husband :), and those who were able to help with my kids in my absence. I was a wreck leaving them...who'd a thunk?
Here are some cute pics of the meeting of Macey Jane Mount:
