Rewind

If you saw the Christmas card I posted, or have seen my blog lately really, you'd know I'm a little behind.  Time keeps going by and Grant is getting so big!  As much as we want it all to slow down, it's not happening!  We're technically closer to Grant's 12 month birthday than his 10 month but I didn't want to skip all the fun we had last month.

Pretty much the rest of this post is pictures from our trip to Utah.  It was a fun trip!  As always, we never feel like we got to spend enough time with everyone we wanted to and I forgot to get my camera out until pretty much the last day.  Here's what we did get though:

Grant and his cousin Gage are three weeks apart.  It's so fun to watch them interact and know they'll get to grow up together!
I don't know what they're doing here but they
seem to.
We stayed with Emily and Nate.  They were gracious enough to have us come bombard them with nonstop craziness for a week.  Grant was very partial to Emily, he always wanted to be giving her hugs!
Emily had Grant's newest cousin 
Rylee the day after we left...
we have the worst timing!
 I wish I looked half as good as
Emily 9 months pregnant!
We got to see M Jay.  We felt like we hadn't seen him in years...maybe we hadn't, it had definitely been a really long time!
He took Grant on a long walk around the
 mall...itwas a nice break...
Grant's not as light as he once was!
Grant started thinking about taking steps!!
He's almost mastered it now!
I was privileged to get to take a picture with Ave.  Never a dull moment with her around!  
It always surprises me that she remembers us!  
It makes us so happy!
We got to hang out with the newlyweds Josh and Kt!  We played some games and had a good time!
The happy couple...they're as fun as they look!
They also just started a blog at http://josh-seniorseminar.blogspot.com/
Grant had a lot of fun with Josh and Kt's "toys".  They were nice enough to let him play with them!  Their toys are a lot more expensive than his at home!


Once again we tried to get a picture of the three boys together. (Remember last time?)
Decent...if only Trace's face weren't covered.
Grant's fading fast and Trace has a plan.
Mission accomplished.
Gage faces him off...
And now Gage is done as well...
I'm sure you are all very relieved to find out that we did get a few workable pictures of the three of them.
Cousins are so fun!
We're so excited that they have each other!
We got to hang out with Cord and Whit and Tyler and Molli too, and it was SO good to see them all! Like I said, I pretty much only used my camera one day so I don't have any pictures of them. Yes, I am lame when it comes to picture-taking!
On the road again...back to AZ.
Grant went crazy with some Red Vines.
He's such a nut!  I know I say it every-time but
life with this kid is unbelievably
AWESOME!

BTW Fast forward to today and it's our 6th Anniversary
Hope our next year together is as good as our previous one!
