{Meet baby Trey..}

So, one of my best friends in the whole entire world is a "Grandma" YES, I said it... GRANDMA!!! I know, I know we are supposed to be boycotting the "G" word and replacing it with the younger hipper (and completely made up Tuesdee version) "Gigi"... but for some reason it's just not sticking....hmmmmm

We drove up to Cedar a few days after they brought Trey home from the hospital and oh my gosh seeing him and holding him, my heart just melted, he is so sweet and so tiny and SOoo precious. I'll tell ya what, he is one lucky little boy too... the first baby BOY in the Thomson household. I have so many memories with this family, I swear it seems like last week Tuesdee's girls were in pigtails and and playing soft ball and singing spice girls (haha)... and right before my eyes, they grew into beautiful, smart, loving and caring young ladies. Lonia I know you are going to be a great Mother, and Tuesdee you are going to be THE BEST Grandmother, because you are already one of the best mom's that I know... Congrats guys!!

let's just say we had a rocky start..

Beautiful views

We had such a relaxing and peaceful day hiking Zion and tubing down the river...

The kids all did great, although some of the adults did struggle getting their tubes un-stuck, in places, where the water was shallow. next year we will have to plan it for earlier. It's always fun to hang out with family though.

Well Summer sure doesn't last as long as it used to, that's for sure! I can't believe it's already time to send the kids back to school. I'm sorry for my lack of posting over the summer.

It was not an easy going summer... As most of you know we moved. We are loving the new house, and are keeping pretty busy with the kids back in school. Remy is loving his new school, he has 7 different classes, his favorite subject so far is science. He is also taking percussion in band. sOooo with the holidays quickly approaching I will TRY to keep up on posting , but I can't make any promises...

{Sunday Drive}

It's been a while since I posted anything on here, so I thought I'd share a few pictures we just took on a drive up to Springdale. It's a beautiful drive... we made sure to stop along the way, and smell the flowers.
