Swingle Fun

We had lots of fun with Sara, Preston, Damien, Olivia and Charlotte.  It was great to meet cute, sweet Charlotte.  She melted my heart--she's soo happy, I love it!!  We had lots of fun with them here for a few days--took scooter rides with the kids, had a cousin dance party (my favorite part!), took the boys and Alexa to see Monsters University (Alexa spent most of the time climbing up and down the theater steps -- her attention span is apparently not ready for a movie in theaters yet!), had a fun BBQ with Todd & Melissa and the Singleton clan, played with the sprinklers and Roxy, and cleaned up lots of puke from those poor, sick kids :(.

Sara brought us this cool sprinkler with all these extensions that fly everywhere.  Lots of fun!

Uncle Paul was so sweet to push the girls on the swings

Ahh, I just love her!! Here is Charlotte saying goodbye to us

 Then, a couple weeks after the Luna clan came, we got a surprise call from Emily saying she was in Utah!  She drove up from Blanding and visited us for the afternoon/evening.  We loved it!  Sadly, Todd was out of town, but we got to play with Melissa.  We all went mini golfing and out to Cafe Rio for dinner.  Aiden is getting so tall and we wish that he, Emily and Jered lived closer so we could play MORE!!!

Aiden was entertaining Tyler while I got him something to drink.  I wish I got a video of him talking to Tyler and being all cute.

Alexa felt so cool with all of Aiden's aunts who came to dinner with us

Tyler was so happy to meet Emily!

December 2024 - Christmas Fun

We were so happy to have Marmie and Grandpa fly out for the Swingle Christmas party.  Emily is the best party planner of all time and had really fun games, prizes, and yummy treats despite her whole family being sick.  Craig and Chelsea gave us a fun Christmas lantern aquarium pass for Christmas and it was amazing!  They had entire habitats full of lantern animals from all over the world.    Tyler and Alexa had their violin Christmas recital at a local care facility, which was such a great idea on their teacher's part.  Sadly, I had to join via FaceTime because I was out of town.  But they did great! We were excited to hear Ian Beagley play viola on Temple Square.  He and Alexa also put together another amazing family recital.  It gets better every year!  Ian played viola; Alexa played violin and sang; Tyler played violin; and Tad, Liam, Lincoln, and Sawyer played the piano.   One of my best friends from high school, Katie Cutr...

June 2024 - Cincinnati Sweeny Reunion & Outbuilding Renters

We had tons of fun at the Sweeny family reunion just outside Cincinnati.  We found some good flight deals so the kids were excited we didn't have to drive haha.  The house we stayed in had an indoor basketball court, outdoor sand volleyball court, a pool, and lots of space for games.  We had a great time.  We flew in early so we spent one night at Grandma and Grandpa Sweeny's house.  It was the first time our 3 youngest have been to their house so that was fun.  We saw lots of baby bunnies running all around their neighborhood, and I was grateful to stop at Yellowwood to see Uncle Ben's grave and Carolyn Guss's house. Nathan entertaining himself during our layover One of the days we hiked Hocking Hills and it was other-worldly.  So beautiful. Nathan was obsessed with Anne and only wanted to hike with her :) We also spent one afternoon at a local science museum It was so nice to have everyone together.  It's been 6 years since I've seen Adam & ...

August 2024 - Lagoon, Nathan the Racer, and Cubs with Viggo

We are in denial that summer is already over.  It went sooo fast! All of the kids earned tickets to Lagoon by doing their summer reading.  Alexa and Tyler read 5,000 pages; Tad read 2,000; and Liam read 1,000.  The three oldest also typed up a book report.  Alexa read Way of Kings; Tyler read How to Train Your Dragon and Percy Jackson; and Tad enjoyed Road Dahl, Hardy Boys, and Investigators. We headed back to school in 8th, 6th, 3rd, 1st, and preschool.  Audrey will be home by herself 3 days a week for a few hours while Nathan is in preschool, which will be a big adjustment for her.   Nathan wanted a Mario Kart birthday so we made a Mario cake and took him go karting.  He was better at driving than I expected haha.  He got the handle of the gas and brake pedals and steering wheel pretty fast.  He got more train tracks, magnet trains, Duplos, some Mario toys, and a Mario coloring book for his birthday.
