Posts have been sporadic, but it has been a crazy month!!! Arden celebrated her 3rd bday and with a compilation of holidays July has been a blur. Not to mention we found out my dad has plasma cancer and I have spent days at the hospital trying to wrap my mind around it all.
However, we loved July and we are looking forward to August!!!!

Stadium of Fire (yes, Adam cheered for Miley Cyrus)
Dad with his cancer sucks button!!! It cracks me up!!
Adam finished his ironman triathlon in 13 hours and 50 minutes. It was a 2 mile, 112 mile bike ride and 26.2 mile run. We are very excited to have him back to a normal lifestyle that does not included intense training.
Patrick and Adam after the race is over. They survived!!!!!
Here is the start of Adams triathlon and it was so crazy!!! There were 2,000 people on the tiny beach starting at the same time.
Sorry for the delayed posts, but things have been really crazy the last month!!!! We just returned from Marco Island, FL and I forgot the camera, so we have nothing to show for it, but tans. We had a great time and Arden spent the week working her grandma over, so we all won.
My birthday was May 2nd and we have determined that Arden gets our birthdays as well as her own. We sang her happy birthday and she blew out the candles a billion times. She has finally figured out birthdays and she takes great pleasure in the whole birthday concept. Adam and I took the afternoon off to see Ironman and we loved it!!!
She was wearing this t-shirt that we purchased in the bahamas and she looked so funny. She made me take her over to Debbies house so that she could show her the mermaid tshirt.
There has not been much going on around here, but Arden loves to feed the ducks at Sugarhouse Park. She loved it and I loved the picture.
Easter was a lot of fun, but after 5 easter hunts it was getting a little old.

Ardens favorite cousins Sevi and Libby
We went to Phoenix for Bethany's wedding and it was beautiful!! Nikki and Lexi came from CA and Johnny flew in from MI. We had a lot of fun and really enjoyed the warm park weather.
We went to the Phoenix zoo to keep the kids entertained and it worked. Arden was loving all the animals, but poor EZ vomited within the first 5 minutes. Rather than going home like responsible adults, we had a zoo employee spray off the stroller and bought a tshirt at the gift shop and partied on!!!!
We loved the Bahamas!!!
I have not downloaded pictures yet from the trip, but I posted a picture of the resort so you could get an idea of why it was an awesome trip.
More picture are coming!!!! My deepest thanks to my wonderful sisters who diligently took of Arden so that we could go. Especially Lexi took a day off work and flew into town to help me out.
We Wove Wexi!!!
We had a great party on Valentines Day with the cousins who are not in school. Arden loved it, so I am thinking that next year I might actually organize a party. This year people just showed up. Plus - - winter improved drastically, because we are leaving for Bahamas in two days!!!!
I was looking through our New Years photos and I found this one of Arden nursing a 2 liter of Dr. Pepper. I did not take this photo and I am not sure how she ended up with a huge soda, but it showcases that as long as she does not call any attention to herself, she can get away with a lot!!!!
The snow is really dumping in Utah!!! Our presidents day consisted of 3 hours of shoveling and Arden crying because her hands were cold. She could not play in it because the snow was up to her shoulders. There is suppose to be more snow this weekend, which means I might be headed to Phoenix in the next week to escape the cold.
We had an awesome time in the Bahamas!!! This was the waterslide that was unbelievable, however we loved the lazy river. However after the long plane ride, we are going to keep running to Mexico!!
