It's been a while

It has been a while since I have updated the ol' blog. How time flies! We have thoroughly enjoyed our time here in Utah. We have been able to see so many family members and it has been a lot of fun to attend so many family functions. Paul has been studying for the bar exam, which he takes in three weeks, and was also recently called to be the Elder's Quorum President in our ward. Needless to say, he stays busy!
I have been taking short trips to Provo to visit family and friends and have been keeping the girls occupied this summer by taking them to Liberty Park where the girls can splash around in the fountains. We also enjoy going to the library once a week and having "school time" at home. I was recently called as the Primary Secretary in our ward and I am thrilled to be in primary again! It is so much fun!!! Here are a few pictures and highlights from the last couple of months. Enjoy!
We only walked about half a block and enjoyed the South Salt Lake 4th of July parade.

Our first washer and dryer!!! Aren't they beautiful?!

Aubrey the graduate.

Paul's Birthday

Paul's birthday this year was a little crazy and his angel food cake looked like it came straight out of a Dr.Suess book! I actually had to buy a cake at the store because mine turned out so horridly. We had a lot of family and a great celebration, though a bit chaotic at times.

Aubrey is three!!!

I have to admit that this was the funnest birthday we've had in quite a while. Aubrey was old enough to understand that it was her birthday, it was a party, and there would be cake and presents. She was so excited all day and we had a blast! We went to Liberty Park to play in the fountains and then had a party that night. Aubrey chose her puppy cake and we had so much fun. My sweet baby girl is growing up too fast!

Aunt Carrie sent some fun headbands and a little stuffed frog.

Aubrey got a cute purse and new shoes from Papa.
