Visit from Austin and Sarah

By -
 We were so excited to have Uncle Austin and Aunt Sarah stay with us for a couple of days while they traveled to and from Texas to bring Grandad and Grandma Jordan's stuff back to Utah.  I am always amazed at how service oriented Austin is.  He is ALWAYS helping someone.  I admire him for that!  
 The kiddos were anxiously awaiting for their arrival . . . PJ's and all. 

 First things first . . . they all wanted to check out his giant trailer. 
 I took this pic of Austin and Boston before church started.  Love the Love!  Having lots of siblings is a blessing - - my kids love and adore their uncles and aunts.









 Introducing Crave to the out-of-towners.
 Aunt Sarah spoiling Presley with a baby doll and a puppy.  Presley still insists on sleeping with her puppy every night.

 They even got the boys remote control cars.  
 Uncle Austin spoiled the kids with water balloons galore.  We all had the best time with the water fight.







 Potty training at its finest.  Presley just hanging out in her cute undies.
 Hanging out in Austin's truck.

 I felt so bad for Austin and Sarah.  They drove all day and came into town on Saturday night.  Their plan was to leave Monday morning for Texas but had to wait until Tuesday morning to leave because they had to take their truck to a mechanic because of broken water pump.

 As they were traveling back to Utah and stopped in Colorado for a night . . . Lily thought she heard a hissing sound when she walked by the trailer.  Sure enough  . . .   unlucky for them - their trailer tire had a leak.  Boo!  What a blessing though that they were kept safe while they were traveling.  



This pic is my favorite!  While Austin is trying to change the tire  . . . Presley is keeping him cool by squirting him with a water gun.  Ha!


 Grandpa and Grandma Crossley followed Austin and Sarah home.  It was fun to have visitors for even just one night.  (Presley sharing Grandma's snacks).






 Much needed haircuts from Grandma

I have loved this yearly tradition of running the Colorado Bolder Boulder with these amazing women.  Unfortunately, this year I had to opt out at the very last minute due to unexpected foot problems (tendonitis).  I love getting geared up every spring and training every Saturday with such a great group of women.  This picture was taken on our annual Saturday breakfast before the run.  I sure hope to run with them again next year.

Lily is Home!

We got to bring Lily home from the hospital last night. It's kinda crazy to think that this beautiful little girl is ours. We definitely have a lot to learn about being parents, but are sure excited for it. We are especially grateful that our families are so willing to help out with everything. My parents are here right now and then Christina's mother and sister will be coming next week. We feel blessed to always have their support. Here are some pictures from the last couple of days. Here is a very proud grandpa spending time with his little grand daughter. He does such a good job with her and it is neat to see how proud he is. Also, here is one of the funniest little videos. So far, her eyes have been very perceptive, but here, I think she got a little overwhelmed. I think her hands mess with her eyes. We have to keep them covered cause she always is scratching her face. But the video just makes us laugh. She is such a cute little girl!!! As you can see, we are very pro...
