Crazy Beautiful Life!

 Here is my re-cap of the last month of our crazy crazy life. On June 29th Alex and I got to go pick up Andrew after his month at officers training. We missed him so so so much!
Alex was so so so excited, can't you tell?
These two were so happy to be to gether again, they are best buds.


 Once Andrew came home we had two and a half weeks before the move so we made the most of our time in Cedar. We hung out with family lots and lots. We also got a new camera so we can take pictures again! YAY!!

Parker participated in a youth rodeo. We have a video of his steer ride but I'm not posting it because... lets just say it ended pretty badly. Parker had a perfect hoof print on his back following the ordeal.

We got rained out so we only stayed for the first two events, but it was a good time.

We attended the annual July Jamboree and car show.
 Alex liked looking at the cars but I think he likes people watching even more.
Alex chose this place to sit throughout the walk up and down main street.

Andrew's whole family got together for a little reunion, plus baby blessing, plus missionary send off.
It was so great to get to spend time with everyone. Some of the highlights were, temple trip with Andrew's oldest nephew Jordan, he loves that kid, Olive Garden, scavenger hunt and pinata for the kids and a day at the Cedar City reservoir for swimming, playing in the mud and a free kayak rental.

It was great being with family and with Andrew's family and my family helping us move our stuff out of our place, not to mention helping to clean the whole house, things went so quickly and were way less stressful than I was planning on. Thanks so much everybody!!!!! I don't know what we would have done without you all!

Our last hoorah in Cedar City was cute little Kynlee's first birthday party! I sure miss that little girl!
Kynlee started out by just wiping frosting on the floor, Alex decided they needed spoons to help them and he fed Kynlee more than he ate himself. Silly boy.
We are now busy settling into our new lives in Colorado, stay tuned for a post on unpacking and a White Coat Ceremony and life for Student Doctor Andrew Alton.
