Hello Crazy Days


My posting has been few and far between as of late,  largely in part due to the fact that I am expecting child number 2 and well sleep has become very very important to me, not to mention wee babe has made mommy feel crummy. 



All crumminess aside,  our calendar is full of various events, appointments, guests, vacations, that will prove to keep us very busy in the next few months.   Like I said before Easter usually kicks off our busy season.

Since my last posting Peter has been to Vegas, Carter and I have been to the annual family spring fling, and we had some close friends get married in which Peter was a groomsman.  So yeah you could say its been a little busy. 

Here are a few pictures to show you what we have been up to.

Boys at an exotic car track.... $500 for 5 laps. They passed on that.

Looking like tourists.



Hiking in Zion National Park.

The sign is telling them the danger of hiking this particular trail.

Jon and Stacey got married.

Scott, Peter, and Neal

The old roommate.

Carter is a dancing fool. 


And he loves cake.

They also had a candy bar and once he figured out where , he visited often.

Flutterby

When we moved into our house we were told we had a butterfly bush.



I had no idea what or which one that was.

Until this evening.

Carter and I were having a picnic in the backyard and I noticed a lot of activity on one of the bushes.

The activity turned out to be about 50 butterfly's fluttering about the bush.  So I ran in the house and grabbed the camera...........


Then I ran back in the house and grabbed the memory card for the camera.





It was really amazing to see.  Carter came over and said "bugs!" I told him "butterfly" and he repeated it in his tiny voice not getting it totally right.  He then tried to point them all out to me.



"right there right there!" he would shout.




"OOO there's one!"








"Look airplane."

OK a little off the subject but he likes to point them out as well.

Rainy Day Weddings

My Aunt got married a week ago Saturday. 



Her flowers were white.



Her cake was purple.



Despite the torrential rain, tornado watches/warnings, and having to move the ceremony and party indoors, It was a great night.



The whole family is very happy for her.  She has been through some rough spots and finally found a keeper.






 

We are excited to welcome Danny to the family.
