Thanks Dad for helping me get my computer clean and like new again for the school year

Being gone for 7 weeks means no food in the house

Major stock up trip

Reuniting with my favorite gelato!!

Moving means new space, new organizing, and lots of time and money spent at the hardwood store

Little one is growing like a weed lately

Making a family favorite

Maracujá mousse  

 Taking the bike out for a spin again

Little one experiencing her first dental appointment

A was so good to sit in the seat with her

Our turn to clean the church

Thanks again to Dad for fixing yet something else

Girls and their slim

Due for a hair color and cut

Little one is slowly growing out of her naps

Occasionally I can convince her to lay down for "quiet" time

Moving on

We arrived home to Brasilia safe and sound

the next day movers arrived

We had been appealing for over 6 months to move house locations

We LOVED our old house but 

it's backyard was the airport

which made for some sleepless nights

I knew moving the day after we arrived home from a 7 week trip would be crazy

which it was but I didn't want to procrastinate the inevitable

Looking back at these pictures seems so long ago

So happy to have the boxes unpacked and be settled into our home

Moving is exhausting be it across town, across country or to another country

 Precious cargo

These little guys of Sam's won't move so well next time

Fun with the Bonners

Our time with the Bonner's was cousin packed, fun filled awesome days

We spent a few days in the Unitah mountains

Chilling at a cabin, swimming, 4 wheeling, catching snipes & just hanging out

Cousin craziness

Can't get enough of those babies!!

     

Oh you know, just hanging out in the parking lot having a picnic

Spending some cousin time at Pineview

Helping Nana make something yummy!

    

Exploring an awesome new parks with cousins

Round 2 of getting Jo's ears pierced

This time her cousin came along for the ride

Jo had them pierced about a year ago and ended up getting a 

horrible infection in one ear and had to pull them out

Second try and we pierced with pure gold, lucky thing

Hope the last time was an allergic reaction to the metal

Happy to say that she is still doing well with them in!

Taste testing otter pops

I bet she couldn't tell the difference in the flavors but Sam was able to

Finals goodbyes and fun

Getting ready to leave on a jet plane

14 suitcases, 7 carry-ons and one stroller

Until next time Utah!
