Yes, We're Alive...

So, yeah. Long time, no blog. This has been a crazy and fun month so far. Lots going on here.

1. First of all, Eden went to her friend's Tea Party a while back (maybe even in June) and I never posted the cute pictures I got. She loved getting dressed up, something she hasn't had much experience in. She loved the glitter, nail polish, and especially the "necklaces," which she totally hogged. I think she was wearing every single neck piece available.
2. Jonah has been continuing his photography hobby. I am always finding his works of art on the camera. 3. Levi finally has given up bottles. I know, he's almost 2. I have seriously slacked with getting rid of the bottles, but it just wasn't a big deal to me because he can already drink out a cup. It was more of a concern when the other two couldn't, remember? Anyway, he's doing great with sippies. Next stop, the binky.4. Tibi's here! She'll be here for a few more weeks. The kids are having fun with her, but she has been sick since last night. Hopefully it'll pass quickly so we can have more fun!
5. We went to see Harry Potter opening night with a bunch of local family. It was a lot of fun, although the movie was a little bit of a disappointment. You gotta go to the midnight showing though!
6. I didn't get any pictures (I'm killing myself), but I got to see my cousin, Camie, and her adorable new baby girl. It was so great to sit down and talk, something we haven't been able to do probably for years. I've missed being able to be around Camie since we've both been married, so it was fun to get to see her. And also, my other cousin, Karena, moved here from Iowa! It's going to be awesome having her cute little family so close after having them so far away for so long.

7. And a huge piece of news... we got a second car! I can't begin to tell you how ecstatic I am about this! No more commuter miles on our family vehicle! Freedom to go places! Plus, this Sentra has low miles, gets great gas mileage, and has an auxiliary audio input jack so you can plug an ipod right into the stereo system! Kinda wish it was my car!
8. This is just a little video of Levi getting ready for his shower this morning.

WOOHOO, a second car! You know that ipod jack is going to waste on Pete. Good to know you're alive and well!

I know...I can't believe we didn't even think to snap a few group photos! I'm tottally bummed about that one too. Oh well, I guess we'll just have to plan another AZ trip.

I had such a blast and so much fun seeing you guys. I can't believe how much I've missed just sitting around with you and talking about whatever. Thanks for hanging out with me! I miss ya.

I love Jonah's photography! Dayna likes to take pictures too, but fortunately she has her own camera, so I don't have to share! :) Congrats on the 2nd car! Whahooo!
