What we're up to

Well now that the summer is over we are just back in the depths of school and life.

Craig and I are both finishing up our last years at ASU. Craig's degree is in Mathematics and mine is Education and Family and Human Development. We are busy busy bees. I'm doing an internship at a school three day's a week and working part time. 

Eric is growing like a weed. He's almost 9 months. He has 8 teeth and is standing on his own. He can stand up from a sitting position and he took a step the other day. He loves going outside and playing in the grass across the street at the church, and just loves playing with mom and dad. He gets to get watched by some other family member twice a week so that mommy and daddy can do school and work, but he does really well with that. He really is a great baby!

Well we just figured we'd bring everyone up to date. Not much has changed, just being spouses  parents, children, students, members of the church, and employees , that's about what we have time for. 

Utah and Mexico Trip

Well this summer we had a lot of fun!

We were able to go spend a little time with our family in Utah and we went to Mexico.

We also found two stowaways in Josh and Seth :)

They had fun on the trampoline, though Seth didn't like having to stop jumping so hard. 

We headed over to a Colonial Festival for the 4th of July. ...Not sure why Eric went cross-eyed. 

Josh and Seth headed over to the playground. 

Well he just couldn't stay out of trouble...

And neither could Josh...Though he seemed to smile about it :)

Playing on the swings. 

Live chickens. They had the best bread at this festival!

BridalVeil falls. 

Josh is standing on the edge of the world!

That's a LONG ways down.

He really liked being a dare devil.

Seth like being one to.

Seeing Grandma for the first time! It was such fun to get to see everyone.

Playing with Uncle Kevin. 

He really like Grandpa and Sparky.

Seth jumped in and the camera went out of focus. 

So happy to see Grandpa!

Playing with Aunt Nola.

Dinner with the Bowkers

It was so great to see them!

Cousin Donnie reading a book to Eric.

Headed off to the Water park. We were only there for an eventful hour before the rain kicked in. Seth dislocated his toe and everything. 

On our way back we stopped for a picnic at a RV park.

Eric was enjoying Nature. 

We got back and headed off to Mexico the next day. I didn't get too many pictures of us. Eric stayed with Grandma, but we had a great time. Josh and Craig went Scuba Diving for the first time and really liked it. 

THEY WERE HUGE!

So overall we had some great Vacations and we were really happy to have the boys along with us. They definitely made the trip with Eric much easier, and always made everything more fun!
