Halloween

Marlow was a 'monster' as he called himself and was Mayli a peapod.

Marlow turns 3

I'm a little behind on posting, but I can't forget to spotlight Marlow celebrating his 3rd Birthday. With Mayli in the house now Marlow doesn't get as much attention as he used to, but he has adjusted very well and is quite protective.

Here are some of my favorite things about Marlow. He's...
-a wonderful Big Brother.
-so genuinely loving and caring.
-smart and loves books.
-is very athletic and has a great throwing arm.
-is so happy.

A big day for our sweet Mayli

Mayli was blessed on Sunday and Matt did such a great job, the blessing was beautiful. We are so fortunate to have such wonderful family and friends to enjoy this wonderful day with us. Mayli is so loved already.

Utah State Fair

It's always fun to go to the fair to see the animals (or to watch Marlow check out the animals), people watch, and eat fair food. We were sad to have missed the Burley fair this year, but it was fun to enjoy the festivities closer to home.

Marlow wanted to go on the big yellow slide, but changed his mind as soon as he was on his way down it. It was higher and scarier than he thought it would be.

Ta Da!

After many hours of hard work Matt is done with the kitchen, minus a little bit of trim. I guess it never ends, but we are so glad to have such an open and functional kitchen. I'm not much of a cook, but with an updated kitchen it can be fun.
