Happy September!

We haven't posted for a while, so I thought I would write a quick update. Since August, Cliff started school. He and the others in his program are all having senioritis for 2nd year Master students. Nobody wants to do their homework or go to class. I keep telling him only 8 more months! Joshua is walking all over the place, and you can tell from his forehead. It always has a bruise on it! He loves to be outside and he loves to sit in the driver's seat of the car make car noises. The car is usually where we head to if we are outside, but then he cries if he has to sit in his car seat. He has turned into a big mama's boy and cries and pouts everytime I leave him. I started playing in the Utah Valley Symphony again and when I went to rehearsal, Cliff said that Josh would put his head against the front door and whine and say "Ma ma ma ma." We just laugh because we think he is so cute! Let see, out computer broke and we have to get a new one, so we might not be posting pictures for a while. Other than that, we are enjoying life and laughing everyday about how cute our son is!

Happy Birthday!

We had a big birthday party for Josh. It was fun to have some of our family come and celebrate with us. Josh loves his cousins and aunts and uncles and was glad that some of them came. We couldn't get him to wear his party hat though!
We had fun making this cake. Cliff was in charge of the wheels and the lights, and I was worried we wouldn't have any wheels left for the car! Josh didn't seem to impressed with all of our hard work!
It's amazing how fast one year goes by! Joshua had his first birthday! Josh wasn't sure what to do with the cake. He liked the cake better when grandma fed it to him with some ice cream. Landon knew exactly what to do with the cake and enjoyed digging into it!

Pioneer Day

We went to Kanosh for the 24th and had a great time with Cliff's family. Everyone was there, which only happens once a year, so we really enjoyed our time with everyone!
Josh and Connor were devouring Grandma's popsicle. They both couldn't wait for a bite!
We tried to get a picture of all the cousins, which with 7 little kids, was quite a task. I'm not sure if we got one when everyone was smiling and fingers were not in someone's mouth, but they are really cute even if we didn't get a perfect picture!

Lake Powell

We went to Lake Powell for a few days with our family. It was sunny the whole time and the water was the perfect temperature. The red rocks are beautiful and the sunsets were amazing! Our Lake Powell favorites are relaxing in the water, playing Scrabble, showering off the end of the house boat, eating delicious food, and being with all of our family. We sure had a great time!
