What a busy week, First of all, we went to church on sunday and 15 minutes into it Lauren puked, I thought it was because she choked on her fruit leather, we took her to my grandma's, cleaned her up while Jamie ran home to get a new dress. We went back to church. She fell asleep only to wake up 10 minuted later and puke on the bench. We went home. The next day was her 2nd Birthday. She acted okay but I didn't want to risk it so we cancelled her shindig (she's 2 like she'll remember) and just had cake with the fam.

HAPPY 2nd LULU!
(Notice the candles!)

The next day, Jamie and I took off for Arizona. He had what Lulu had only the other end of it, if you catch my drift.

He looks better than he feels!

We met with his professor, Duff, had lunch with him then he showed us around. We went out to his house for dinner to meet his wife, love them. Then we spent the rest of the week looking for a house to live in. We came up short on everything. We are going to try looking on the internet in about a month. We swam everyday when it finally cooled off enough to be outside for more than 30 seconds. We loved that part of it.

Today we went up to Mount Lemmon. It was so neat the bottom looks like Arizona but the top looks like Island Park. It was a lot cooler up there too. We will be spending a lot of time up there this year. There is even a ski "Resort" it's as big as Kelly's Canyon. Just perfect for the girls to learn on. Jamie too!

CACTUS!!!

MORE CACTUS!!!!

PINE TREES!
(Yes this was the same drive, even on the same road)

We are sitting here in the airport waiting for our flight to take us to VEGAS!!!! Where we have a 7 hour layover. ALL NIGHT. WE fly out of there at 6:30 in the morning. We are already tired. I suppose that's all for now.

Still in limbo

Ready, Set, Go!

Today we found out that our 3rd option for finding a place to live for the summer fell through. This is getting a little old. We have been helping out around the house a lot to earn our keep. What would my parents do without us? What would we do without them? It really is nice to just run to the store rather than packing all the kids up to go get milk. But on the other hand having your own place is even better.
We went down to Soda Springs last weekend to see our friends and we ended up staying the night so the guys could hunt even more the next morning. Cass and Rachel took the kids to Logan to do some shopping. Our next trip down there the girls will go play without the kids while the boys stay home with them. There is never a dull moment when Jamie and Daniel, Cass and Rachel, and all the kids are together. We always have a blast with them. We had to be in Rigby at 1 so we really rushed to get back home because the boys were late coming home. We didn't even get to shower, we rushed all the way out to The Riot Zone to eat a great meal and find out that it sucked, so we called Jamie's sister and we went to the zoo. We had such a good time. Who would have thought going to the Idaho Falls Zoo could be so fun. Our girls are at the age where every animal is unique and interesting. There were Monkeys for Avery, Flamingos for Hadley, and Pigs for Lulu. Take a look at all our newest pictures.
