Home, home on the range

I love my family! The boys and I went to Montana to see my family and

celebrate my sister Annette's

wedding. It was super fun to see everyone, and enjoy the opportunity to have a shower every morning. We took the kids to the Montana Children's Museum ($4 and kids under two are free!), the park, to a pampered girls party (Logan came home with purple painted toenails with stickers) and fed them tacos and nachos from my favorite restaurant. McKay desperately loved sitting on the motorcycles at my Mom's work, and didn't want to leave.

The plane ride was okay. My awesome friend Marielle lent us her DVD player, and my mom bought the boys "Cars" so that helped a lot. McKay just doesn't like to sit still so it was a struggle. McKay keeps yelling "airplane, Mommy" whenever he sees one in the air, and Logan asks when we can take another ride. So apparently they had more fun on the plane than I did.

This is my cute sister Annette and her new husband, Jason, and family. Also there is a picture of my sister, Julie, and I wearing the wedding colors of green, black and white. Thanks for playing with us, guys! We love you and miss you!

Before

Arizona just got a little lonely

Chris, Kendi, and kids, whom we absolutely love, have decided to embark on a new adventure in North Dakota. Because they only lived an hour away we have had the chance to play often, and the boys have absolutely loved hanging out with their cousins. We were able to enjoy the Fourth of July, Thanksgiving, and Christmas with this awesome family. As we were driving away after saying good-bye Logan started crying "I want Cody! I want Macie! I want Erin!" It was so sad, he so loves them. Loren has so appreciated the time he had with his brother, and I loved getting to know more amazing Chase family members. The eight months we had with them here were not long enough! Good luck with your new adventure, we love you!

Rrrrrriiiibbbiitt

I'm sure I'm the only one who thinks this is hilarious--but I think it is the funniest thing McKay does. He can't quite master the jump, but thinks saying ribbit and throwing himself around counts. Cute!
