update

I'm at the point where it's been so long since I've blogged that I don't even want to start. Too much to catch up on. But that's a bad place to be, so I'm going to just hit the ground running right here.

 

Figuratively, of course. Because I've been slacking at running, too. Heh.

 

We had an Anderson family reunion in Park City. Very fun. My parents bought everyone blue (boys) and green (girls) shirts. We were easy to spot in Park City, that's for sure. Here's Carson enjoying holding Violet:

Got pants?



Addie turned 4. Which is craziness. We love this chickadee. She chose top ramen with peas, toast with butter, pineapple (with toothpicks), and root beer for her birthday dinner.

Out of all possible foods...top ramen? Really?

The kids and I hiked around and went swimming in Tony Grove with Joyce and Tonya & co. We saw two moose in the lake. Thrilling! Those things are so huge. (On a related note, I was just telling Paul in June how I'd never seen a moose in the wild before. In the past month alone, we've spotted multiple moose in ran-didly-andom spots no less than FIVE times! Summer was a success!)

First day of school (below). The kids did NOT want me to take their pictures. Obv. But they're loving being back in school. Layla gives me a lengthy rundown of the happenings nearly every day after school. Carson asks me "what's for snack?"

 

All is well in the world.

 

p.s. I've started posting my home-centered projects and ideas here. It's a bunch of old posts right now, but I'm working on adding new ones.
