On Sept. 11th Justin flew to South Carolina to work for 3 months to animate for a film studio. This was the night before he left. ...Sad. We put the girls to bed at my parents so I could take Justin to the airport early the next morning. Unfortunately I woke up sick and passed out due to anxiety of him leaving and not eating fast enough so I couldn't take him. Justin's dad luckily was willing to come and took him at 5 am.
We're all doing well, though we miss each other like crazy! I am so proud of Justin always providing for us even when it will be really hard. I love you, babe.
Justin and I celebrated our 7th wedding anniversary on Sept. 5th! We went to the Anniversary Inn in Logan and stayed in "the Players Clubhouse." It was so much fun. The room had a foosball table and putting green. It was a fun get-away. We're the happiest we've ever been and I'm so glad to be married to Justin!
Wheeler Farm
We met my family for lunch at Sweet Tomatoes and then some of us went to Wheeler Farm. This was animal heaven for Reagan!

This summer was just so much fun! It flew by but had a lot packed into it. Here 's the summary of our August.
Founders Day
Both my parents and Justin's parents helped at this event to celebrate Fruit Heights. So of course we had to go...and we are glad we did! There was so much fun stuff to do for the kids! We had a blast, so thanks for telling us about it both moms and dads!
My parents were doing the "fishing pond" with a few other couples and they had awesome prizes!
Justin's parents were running the information booth...and I sadly didn't get a picture of them. But they did a great job!
Dress Up Lots of princess dress up at our place.
(Reagan really wanted that Velcro monkey hugging her!)
Justin's B-day Justin turned 29 on August 12th! We celebrated Justin and Jeff's b-days at the Calders that Sunday. We celebrated at our place on the 29th and that night my parents took us out for dinner. Fun week!
N & P G's Anniversary
Justin's Nana and Papa (their great grand kids call them Nana and Papa G (great)) had their 55th wedding anniversary and they treated all of the adults to an amazing dinner at the Timber mine. We are so glad they are in our lives.
Justin Uncle Scott and two of his kids, Zane and Avery came down. Last time I saw them the kids were both a lot shorter than me! So it's been a while!
The Cabin We went and visited my parents at a Camper World cabin one day and then stayed the night on Saturday night. We swam, played corn hole, ate yummy food, and played games. Pretty fun!
Surf n' Swim We had our annual reunion at Surf n' Swim for my mom's side of the fam. We enjoyed eating, swimming, and playing at the park.
The Zoo
Justin's sister, Katie, invited me and the girls to go to the Zoo with her and her kids. We had a great time!!
(I spy Savannah trying to climb on our stroller. The little girls loved switching strollers.)
R's Fingernails
Not a huge event but it was cute! Myah came running in while Justin and I were doing the dishes after dinner and said, "Reagan's painting her fingernails!!!" I had already painted her nails earlier that day but I guess not like she wanted! When we ran into the bathroom, she was sitting on the floor painting away. There were a few drips on the floor but she did a pretty good job on her nails for a two year old!
Playing at N & P's house The girls always have a grand time playing at Nana and Papa's house when we go during the week. The cousins love to play together and it's fun to watch!
Reagan wouldn't move from my spot so I sat on her. She thought it was fun holding me!
Bowling
We took Myah and Reagan bowling last week and it was so much fun!
This pic is blurry but it shows the excitement Reagan got when she'd knock her pins over!
In August Justin also got a new job for three months in South Carolina. He will be moving out by himself in about a week. ...cry, sob...but it should be a great job and hopefully it will tun into something more or lead to another great job...where we can all go with him.
