Cedar City!











Great News!! Rob just might get the 4 Sport Award! Blake and I accompanied Rob to his 3rd, yes 3rd softball tourney this year! Rob's sure hoping that they will make Slow Pitch Softball an actual sport so he can hit the majors! We had some fun though. We tried a new idea, driving while Blake sleeps, so we left at night and drove straight there. It was actually really nice to not have to have her screaming at us! we had a fun time we got to go swiming and Blake got to stay in a hotel for the very first time!! Here are some fun pictures of our weekend!

Bear Lake

Blakeley said "DAD" right to Rob,

Blakeley's First Time Swimming! What a cute little Chunk!

We had such a fun weekend in Bear Lake, our first famly trip with Chase home. It was so fun. We went over fathers day and stayed at Sweetwater. We got in the pool, rode 4wheelers, played tennis, ate a lot of good food, and had some good old fashioned family bonding time. It was a lot of fun.

Computers: A Love-Hate Relationship!

Well I am aware that I'm not the most avid blogger but it helps if you have a working computer :)! Why do I allow computers to run my life, then when it doesn't work everything comes to a screeching halt! Our laptop has been acting up for quite sometime now and instead of doing the right thing and taking it in we just keep fudging it here and there so it would work. So Rob finally took it in on Thursday because it wouldn't turn on AT ALL. Suprise it needs fixin so we are out of a computer for the next couple weeks. So here I am posting while at work :) No really though Im sad cuz I had some cute photos from our recent weekend excursions to share with ya'll but I guess it will have to wait. The worst is that I use Quicken and Internet Banking so i currently have no idea what bills need to be paid etc. It's all in good fun I guess im sure I will hear from someone if they don't get paid :). So I will still be reading all of your blogs it will just be a minute before there is anything worth reading on the Brian's end of things (that is if you are still even reading this boring post!) Love ya!!

FINALLY!!! Blake and Chase Meet for the First Time!!


Helping Mommy make a welcome home sign.



Watiting with Grampy to meet Chaser....

FINALLY!!

Blake and Chase have become the BEST of buddies, she loves him they have been playing together, and just having a blast getting to know each other!


Chase is Finally home, we are so excited to have him back! I don't have many pictures from the airport, Rob was filming and Mindy took pics. I was too excited and too emotional. It was the best day. It was so cute when he saw my mom and then when he met Blake she went right to him and she just smiled at him. She loved his badge. Since then they are the new best buddies she loves to play with her Uncle Chase and it is just so so sweet to watch and finally have him home! My family feels complete again!

Blake and Stone's Playdate

What a cutie, I love his hair so much!!
Blake was so excited about to have a fun day with Stone.
Fun Little Friends!
Blakeley got to have a playdate with Stone, it was so much fun to watch. They just starred at each other a lot and it was so funny when Blake woke up I took stone in with me to get her out of bed and she was cheesin it she was so happy. They were so cute, I think Blake was a little jealous of his thick beautiful hair she kept trying to pull every chance she got!!


My Dad's Great!!





Rob set up Blakes wagon for her and we have been going on some wonderful walks (when the weather lets us.) She LOVES to be outside and in the wagon, she doesn't make a peep she just takes it all in. It has been so fun to get outside together.

A week of fun in Mexico!!!

We had the most amazing time last week in Cancun. Rob and I have not been able to travel many places together and so we were SO grateful for the chance to go to Mexico. Rob's work gives away a trip every year. Rob worked so hard all year to achieve his goal and win the trip and I am so proud of him for doing that and obviously very grateful that I got to come along. Even better Dave won the trip too, so we got to go with Dave and Heidi!!
We relaxed and ate all week, we played by the pool and on the beach. We were mostly just beach bums. It was fabulous. We really got treated like kings, the hotel was all inclusive and so they would bring us around drinks, fruit cabobs, and cold towel for your face while we were by the pool. The cabanas by the pool were perfect for relaxing, reading, taking a nap and sipping on a yummy pina colada. They treated us so good and we ate so good too. I have never eaten so much food in all of my life.
We went shopping into town one day and saw some neat things and some other things I hope I never have to see again :). Rob speaks spanish so that was good, he had a lot of oportunities to speak it and it proved to be VERY helpful at times.
Blakeley was lucky enough to get to be pampered by her grandmas while we were gone. It was really hard to leave her but we made the best of our trip and knew she was being loved at home with her grannies. The hardest days were the day we left her and the day we were comming home. She seemed to be grateful we were back home even though we woke her up straight out of bed so we could see her!
The whole trip just seemed sureal and we tried to enjoy every moment of it. It was an awesome opportunity and Im just so grateful for Rob for working so hard to get us there!! It was also nice to get a good nights sleep for the first time in 6 months :)!
