Finally an update...

I'm finally back to the blog world again. Tons has happened but if I blogged about all of them I would be here forever. So for a summary, Derek now has a new job that he will be starting next week. Not really sure what exactly it is yet or what he will be doing but it is for a delivery warehouse called "On time Express" Kaden graduated from preschool and will be starting Kindergarten this year, I think that is absolutely CRAZY! He is so excited and can't wait. Chloe just finished her dance class and had a recital and she was adorable! She was so thrilled to be up on that stage with everyone watching her. Jace just had his birthday a couple days ago and the poor thing is sick so we only got to go to lunch and will save the big celebration for another day when he is feeling better. I'm still working at the Aquatic Center and being a full time MOM and I love it. I love this age when they are really starting to understand things that are going on and start asking questions that you don't really know how to answer. It can also be a little troubling sometimes but I love how they learn, it can be very entertaining sometimes. We have just been having lots of fun this last year hanging out at home, the zoo and Park City. My big brother Mike came for a visit this month and it was great. I loved catching up with him and getting to know him a little more, its been a really long time since we've seen him. We had lots of fun hanging out playing games and talking, it went way too fast though. I really miss having all of us together and I wish we had more time but I'm very grateful for what we got. The 4th of July was awesome, like always. I just love that holiday. We went to the parade in Kaysville and had a blast, even though I was also completely humiliated by all the "grown ups" taking over the parade and screaming for all the candy and prizes like it was their job! Yes I am talking about you Blake, Derek, Matt and Kasey!! I don't know who had more fun them or the kids, well actually I do, pretty sure it was them!! It was very entertaining to watch though, glad they had fun. That night we went to Layton park and hung out and played games before the awesome fireworks. It was a great day as always. Here are a few pictures from the last little while. I lost a ton of pictures though when Chloe formatted my card in my camera though, still trying to get over that one...








Park City-
