Jessie's wedding, and more Utah

Me and Lane went to Utah for my friend, Jessie's wedding. It was fun to see all my old BYU gals! and SO fun to see Jessie be a bride :) beautiful!

 We also hung out with Gramma!  Here she and Lane are watching the humming birds :)

Amazing Gramma

So my gramma is amazing!!! She is 85 years old and still can crawl around on the floor playing with the babies. I LOVE it!! I want to be like her when I am that age. Lane had lots of fun playing with his great gramma, and i had lots of fun watching them :)

sitting under her quilt rack....seriously...I've had 40 year old patients that had no prayer of sitting on the floor on purpose....let alone getting UP if they WERE on the floor! :)

Grampa Con, Lane and Gramma. Lane refused to look at the camera :)

Who is that masked man!??

Lane eating breakfast incognito thanks to his cousins.

Shoes!!!

So Lane is obsessed with shoes!!!! I really have NO idea where he inherited that because i think that me and scott COMBINED have maybe 7-8 pairs of shoes. But that's not the scary part.....the disturbing part is that he's mainly obsessed with womens church shoes..

I take comfort in the fact that at least he can't walk WELL in the pink frilly shoes

This is pretty much how his mama looks when SHE tries to wear high heels

Thank goodness for short heels!!

sort of resembles bambi's first steps on ice :)

Phew!!!! Finally some man shoes. Good job Lane :) Maybe there's hope

Dare devil

So Lane is turning into quite the Evil Kenevil.....this is just one example, standing up in the kayak. He also loves to stand up on his little truck, and electric 4 wheeler. Lately he has graduated to not only standing on the seat while trying to drive them, but then he lets go the handle bar and puts his hands in the air and says "WOO HOO"

Another example of our little dare devil....i was unloading my car today and i let lane play on his little truck out in the front yard. Well there is a hill from where the house is down to where you park the cars. It's not a very big hill but it's a little steep for baby-sized people. Well i was getting in my car and i hear "thud thud thud" I look up and there is Lane on his truck, holding on for dear life rolling down the steepest part of this hill down to the car!!!! I laughed so hard....his little face was a mix of shock, fear, and fun. Then he HAD to do it again a couple times....I probly shouldn't encourage this behavior.....but I'm sure i have the same expressions on my face whenever I go through a rapid in a raft :)

Fun at the Lake

This is at the lake we were at with the Terry's. We had lots of fun, boating, tubing, kayaking, and I knee-boarded for the first time!! Lane got his first rock throwing lessons, and had fun in the kayak. I don't get it though, he only trusts his daddy to take him out in the kayak when his MOM is the professional. What's up with that!?!? :)

Neither of them would look at the camera!

Vacation buddy!

playing with the rocking horse

Lane is such a flirt!!

We went on vacation with our good friends the Terry's, and this is Lane playing with Aviendha, they're almost the same age. Too bad that they're practically related, so no arranged marriage for these two, but look how cute they are :)

More Property Tour

View to the Left of driveway.....
top of the driveway and a big rock....
walking up the driveway....yes that is snow.....lots of it this year!!

 Moose poop in our driveway!  We caught Lane sitting there eating moose poop one day....it was awesome :)

 The view out in the back of our house....so fun!

Scott and Lane checking out the views of the state land..

"This is the place!!!"

View of Lake from the beachmore lake
my beach!!! so fun, Lane LOVES it
the state land that borders our property....it goes all the way to that moutain! YAY
this is part of the building site....it's hard to explain so i'll just have to keep putting update pics up as we go!

well FINALLY!!! After much talk and excitement and waiting and leg work, we closed on our property at "wilderness lake"!!! YAAAAY We are so excited we can hardly stand it......hopefully the excitement will carry us through the hastle of building! So this is the place. We have 5 acres, but the REAL reason we bought it is the 100's of acres of state land bordering our land that we can play on :) There is a cute little lake and a fun little beach that i can take our kids to (when we finally have some more!)

I'll be posting pics of the progress along the way. As of now we have the building site cleared, and it already looks so different! SO FUN!!! I won't tell you about the house yet.....i have to have SOMETHING that keeps you coming back to my blog! All i can say is that I LOVE it!!! And i am SO excited about this adventure, and so grateful for all of our blessings that have led us to this point!
