my HERO!

So after my internship today Wade very graciously said he would pick me up and give me a ride home. As I approached the car I noticed a nice little surprise sitting (better yet sound asleep)in the back seat, my monkey Noah. While being transported to my house I suddenly realize that I neglected to put the house keys in my backback.....seriously....I thought I was done with this curse! So once again I have locked myself out of something. Wade and I decided to head to the house anyway to see if we could find another way in. I will admit I am usually on Matich for forgetting to turn off the light, or close the window, etc. So with my luck....today he remembered to do ALL of the above, everything closed and accounted for! Inspector Wade decided to take a look around the house and check for an entrance one more time. He was MIA for a few minutes so Noah and I decided to go have a look. To our surprise, Wade had managed to make a small opening only big enough for our favorite little guy Noah. I turned to Noah and asked, "Hey Monkey can Opa lift you up through the hole so you can unlock the door for Aunt Arn?" His reply, "Ya, I do it!". So I lifted him to Opa Wade, who slowly helped to get him in. Wade and I held back the laughs as we heard "Im in, I did it!". That little man climbed off the counter, through the house, straight to the front door. In like flin I like to say! Noah saved the day! It was very obvious he was very proud of himself and he should have! There were high-fives all around and a "skittle" of rewards. We were all so excited and I was SO PROUD of him that we decided to re-enact the event!















LOVE YOUR GUTS NOAH!

Summer of Fun




Just thought I would post some random pics of our summer adventures. I have truly neglected to post some really good times we have had these last few months. Amongst gearing up for a new school year and house chores we managed to fit in a little fun! My sweet husband bought me tickets to (in his opinion) the dreaded James Taylor....I cant help it, I am a sucker for that fellow! We spent lots of time at the pool with the best monkeys in the land...Nomah and Squeeker, and I even took a few trips up to Layton to hang out with Nomahs best bud and our cousin Connor. It was a great summer and I will admit the warmth was pleasant, but bring on the snow! Its true, it cannot be denied, I am very ready for the joys of Fall and the chills of snow. love it.

At long last...home sweet home!

So here are just a few pictures of the house and our remodel adventures. We still have some decor to finish up, so more pictures to follow! It is amazing to me how much stuff you feel like you have and then its placed somewhere new (and not to mention twice the size) and it feels so empty...all in due time...patience young grasshopper!
