We got back from Park City Saturday the 25th. On Sunday, we finally blessed Connor in church! He's only 3 months old. :) It was great because Jeremy's family was still here (they all left right after church) and then my parents had come into town for a weekend reunion with my dad's side of the family. That's why we decided to wait so long - since we knew they would all be here then.
Of course I forgot to take any pictures, but it was a great blessing and we had a nice lunch that Jeremy's mom prepared (thank you!) and then everyone drove home (to Oregon, Nevada, & California).
My parents stayed that day since the reunion went until that night. My dad flew out that night and then my mom stayed until Wednesday, the 29th (my b-day!). It was SO nice having her here. We got some packing done and she babysat for us on the 28th so we could go on a date! It was so wonderful. Thank you mom!
Since then we have been busy trying to pack and organize and clean and get ready for our big move! It's crazy how hard it is to get that done with two little ones, but I'm trying hard and slowly we're getting ready.
Then on Sunday we got some exciting news that MY LITTLE SISTER IS ENGAGED!!! Woohoo!! We're very excited for Heidi and Sam! They have yet to set a date, but it won't be until next May or June because he's going off to Medical School in Iowa next month and she has a year left at BYU. :( Sad for them. But they're very happy and twitterpated so all is well. :)
Then yesterday we enjoyed the 4th by packing some more, cleaning, doing 3 loads of laundry, washing both cars, and eating yummy food. It wasn't a traditional celebration :) but we had a good time nonetheless. Then we heard booms for hours that night and got lots of great fireworks shows out our window. Some of the formerly illegal fireworks are now legal in the state of Utah, so everyone was going to town.
So that's the latest. I'm trying to catch up here, but like I said, I have a million things to do to get ready to move!
Oh and here's a cute picture of 2 boys in the tub. We try to stay modest in these pictures. ;)

Cute, cute, cute! I'm glad you've been having fun. Good luck with all the packing.
Cute pictures below. The one where Jeremy is getting his beard shaven in the Heritage Park, made me laugh. :)
And I love the new family picture of you all! What a beautiful family.
I love your family picture with Eli holding Connor's hand. That was so sweet! What a beautiful family. We love you and I had so much fun visiting all of you!
