Kaden's second tooth came in today!

Poor guy is in so much pain!

Can't wait till all of his teeth are in!

Silly Girl!

Fishing!

Love this reservoir.

Brian and I used to come here all the time after we were married.

The last time we were here was before Kambree was born.

We didn't catch any fish this time.

We also weren't there very long since Kaden wasn't feeling so good.

It was so good to go back!

Hopefully soon we can take the kids back to go fishing.

This time when they are both not so sick!

(Wanna meet us there Chris and Tiffani!?! Let's plan it!)

Ping Pong!

Graham Family Reunion

We went to Pine Valley for a Graham Family Reunion. It started June 5th and ended the 8th. Unfortunately the kids were sick, so we didn't leave for the cabin until around noon on Saturday. Even though the kids were sick half the time, it was so much fun and so good to spend time with family! We did some 4-wheeling, fishing, family pictures, lots of eating, games, and just relaxing! The cabin was amazing! It was so big and it was so beautiful! The weather was perfect! It was such a good weekend we didn't want to leave! I took these pictures at night time when we were leaving, so they didn't turn out the greatest, but this place is so huge!

We love Utah!

At the beginning of August Sam moved from our house up to Provo. We drove her up to Utah. Brian missed out on the fun, it was just Sam, the kids, and I. It was so good to see all of our family up there! We stayed at Grandma and Grandpa Harward's, we miss them so much, it was so good to see them! We met up with my Uncle Dave from Canada, who spoiled us rotten! It has been so long I am so excited we got to see him. We also spent time with our cousins and we even had a girls night out for some Yogurt Land and the dollar movies. Thanks Chris for babysitting! :) We got to meet up with Brittni Lucas and her adorable Waylin! And during the 3 days that we were there we also fit in Ikea, Trafalga, BYU Creamery, the splash pad, and Kambree, Sam and I got our hair done. Thanks Tiff! We had a lot to fit in during our short little stay! It was just so fun seeing family and friends! We were so busy constantly doing things that I only got a couple pictures of Kambree, Kaden, Dempsey, and Kapplan in the bath tub. So cute! Brings back cousin memories! Such a fun weekend! Can't wait to go back up again!

Keys!

3:55pm

We recieved our keys to our new house!

Mmmm....

When is the last time that you had Grandma Lois's famous fudge?

This stuff is very bad, but unbelievably good!

Private

Okay, so I know that I have gone back and forth with making my blog open to readers.

Recently something happened that made me realize that anybody can read my blog when it is not private.

To be honest, there are just certain people that I don't want to let into my life.

So with that being said I am going back to private mode.

For good!

1st!

Kaden got his first tooth today!

Finally!

It is so cute!

We have been waiting for this little tooth for a long time now!

But having no teeth hasn't stopped him from eating everything!

He is such a good eater!

My boy loves his food!

I love my boy!

Too long!

It has been way to long since I have posted. Things like always have been crazy! We are finally getting settled in our house! We love it so much! Still lots to do but I am so glad to have all the unpacking done! This last weekend we went to Pine Valley for our Graham Family Reunion. Even though we had sick kids it was so much fun! We had our pictures done by Darillyn Bell. She did such a great job with such a big group! I will post pictures when I get them in the mail, but until then you can check them out on her website. Just click here!

I am hoping to find time today to get all caught up on my blogging. Until then I have a house to clean and sick kids to deal with! Wish me luck!

4 years!

Our anniversary was on July 6th. I can't believe that it has been 4 years since Brian and I got married! With 2 kids time sure does fly! This year we didn't plan anything because so much time and money is being put into our house. Since Brian works during the day, Sam and I take turns going to the new house to do work. Sam took the morning shift that day so Brian and I can go work at the house together for our anniversary painting date while she watched the kids. When we walked in the kitchen there was a little anniversary surprise that Sam left for us! She is so thoughtful and always thinking of others!
Thanks Sam! We love you!

Brian-
I love you so much! We are so perfect together! I am so grateful for all the hard work that you do for me and the kids. You ALWAYS make me laugh and smile! There are still times when I look at you and get butterflies! Watching you with Kambree and Kaden just melts my heart! They love you so much. This has been the best 4 years of my life and I can't wait to see what the future holds for us. I love you B! Happy Anniversary!
Love, Katie

4th of July

A long time ago when I was still in high school we stayed in Vegas for the 4th of July and went to the parade in Boulder City. I will never forget that 4th of July because that is the year we swore that we would never miss a Utah 4th of July ever again. The parade sucked, it was so miserably hot, we all got sunburned and a couple of us got heat stroke. We were all miserable! So this year when we were talking about staying here in Vegas for the 4th I got so sad because the 4th of July is my favorite Holiday and I thought it was going to end up like the one we spent in Boulder City. Luckily... It went much better than I thought! :)

We started with the parade in Summerlin. It was a million times better than the one we saw in Boulder years ago. Plus, it was overcast... no sunburn for me! It was still hot, but much better than having the blazing sun! Our friends Danny and Jessica and Chris and Karen joined us at the parade. It was lots of fun!

Kaden didn't like the fire truck sirens!

I tried to take a picture of Ryan and Kambree but they were to interested in the parade. Maybe Karen got some good ones.

Mmmmm... watermelon!

After the parade we had a BBQ at Brian's parents and did a lot of swimming. (sorry no pics, I hate it when that happens!) Once it got dark we went to the new house to watch the fireworks over the whole city from our balcony! It was so cool! We have the best view! Kambree was scared of the fireworks and quickly fell asleep. Then we lit the fireworks Brian got from the Indian reservation. Even though we didn't go to the Stadium of Fire and spend time with our family in Utah, I still really enjoyed spending the day with our friends and our family here in Vegas. It was a great day!

Welcome Home!

Sam is home! It has been so crazy lately that I haven't had time to post about it. She came home on June 23rd. So glad she is back! It is nice to talk to her in person and not just in e-mail! WELCOME HOME SAM! P.S. You can see pictures from when she left here.
