We had a blast at Lake Powell this year. The kids loved the water!
On the drive home (somewhere near Flagstaff) Alex got a call that told him he had the job in Orem.

So much to catch up on...
And photobucket is giving me fits, so who knows when I will be inserting pictures.
Anyway, we found out the beginning of July that Alex would be taking over a new store in Orem... yay. However, this started an exhausting month of July. I spent every waking second packing and cleaning. But, we are now here, living with my parents until we find our house. We were lucky enough to sell our house in AZ and it closes in a few weeks. Then we plan on starting the search for a house in Utah county.
Alex is working too many hours (nothing new there) trying to turn the store around.
Ally is LOVING being with her cousins and grandparents! She is a little nervous to be starting a new school, and I feel the same. I loved her school and the teacher she was supposed to have. It worries me a little, but I know she will do great.
Devin will be turning 1 in less than 2 weeks. Where has the time gone? He is not only walking, but running every where now. He is strangely tiny... I mean who would have thought with a 6'5 dad and 5'7 mom that he would be so small... we have no doubt he will catch up though!
Well, if I can ever get Photobucket to like me again, I have tons of catching up to do. But that will have to do for now.

They are growing up so fast!
Devin turned 10 months a few days ago! I can't believe that in less than 2 months he will be a year old! He is standing all the time by himself now, and will take a few steps, but shortly falls over.
Ally has just gone on a growth spurt... she now acts like a 14 year old. I still can't believe she is going to be baptised this year!
For Father's Day, I took some pictures of the kids dressed up in Alex's clothes and put them in a dual frame. Here are the pics he got:

What we've been up to
Ally got her hair cut today, the shortest it has ever been. Here is the "before" pic from Sunday:
And here is a pic from today:
Ally has been taking swimming lessons, it's 5 days a week. She is getting so good. It's hard to keep Devin entertained that long and out of the pool.
Devin has found his new calling in life:
(notice the nice blanket we spread out behind him... yeah, he never stays on it).
That's in addition to his greatest calling of all... trying to get into as much mischief as possible...
(yes, he tries to drink out of the dog dish if we don't catch him in time)
Of course, we just can't resist those blue eyes...

I give up trying to find time to catch up...
I keep thinking of all the things I need to post on here to "catch up"... I missed so much: a vacation, Devin crawling, Mother's Day, Ally finishing first grade... the list goes on and on. It kept me from posting, so I am just going to have to skip it and move on from here.
So, yesterday we went to the zoo. Alex had the day off and we drove clear into Tucson. Here are a few pics of the fun (and hot) day we had.
Maybe I will try and update everything I missed later, but for now I'm just going to keep up with the present.
