Soooo Much

I've been on hiatus the past month, and let me tell you, A LOT has happened.

First off, we moved...next door.

The owners of our previous house moved back and luckily the man next door wasn't able to sell his 2nd summer home (He's from the valley a.k.a Tempe and has 2 summer homes up here... just 20 minutes from each other.) (A waste? I think so.) Anyway, his bad fortune was our good luck. He asked us to rent from him until the market goes back up. Little did he realize how much 2 toddler boys and a baby girl can quickly depreciate a property. I'll let him know when our year lease is up.

My mom, Heather, and Ethan all came the first week in June to help me move. I passed it off as a vacation for them when in reality I needed help cleaning and babysitting...Thanks you guys.

When our task of moving ended, we all headed back to Idaho, minus Matt who had to work for another week.

On our way back we stopped at Gardner Village so I could do a little shopping. Unfortunately, I forgot about the tiny horses. I was drug through the stores at neck breaking speed by a 3 year old and a 2 year old who were desperate to "check out" the animals.

I'm actually surprised Bennett had a good time. He's more of an animal lover...from a distance.
Jacks loves animals. He mauls them any chance he gets.

This is the after picture. Jacks obviously thought he was going to ride the horses all day long. How quickly he forgets what a great mom I am for even letting him look at the horses.

A lot more went on while up in Idaho, but I'm just exhausted thinking about what we did up to this point. I'll save the other stuff for the next post or two, but I'll give you a quick preview. There were sun burns, stomache flues, lots of cousins, great food, and tons of fun.
