Brynlee Lyn Gardner

Brynlee Lyn is here. She was born on August 27th. She weighed 8lbs. 4oz. It was a great delivery, I wish the others would have come as quickly. I got to the hospital at 4:30pm and checked in and got up to labor and delivery at 5:00pm. She was born at 8:21pm and probably would have come an hour early if my doctor would have been there. We are so grateful she is here and is healthy and absolutely beautiful.

Thanksgiving Point!

We drive down to Thanksgiving Point to the Dinosaur Mesuem. It was the last two dollar Tuesday we could go to in August. And I think that everyone else in Utah thought the same thing. The line was so long. But it actually went pretty fast. We stood in line outside for an hour and once we got in it was all worth it. The kids had such a fun time. We went with Cassie and her kids and Amy and her kids. The kids were so excited to touch and exlpore. The kids loved the room that is completely black and it has stars in the background. It was so dark that you couldn't even see the person in front of you.

Nesting!

Cleaning, cleaning, and more cleaning. I think I've almost got everything done. I've made my checklist and I only have 5 to go. I have done walls, baseboards, ceilings, lights, blinds, windows, touch up painting all throughout the house, re-finished my kitchen cabinets, got the carpet clean, and organizing all the cupboards, drawers and closets. My house feels so much better. When you only have 1100 sq ft house with 7 people you have to find a place for everything. I love my little house.

Summer Fun!!!

We have had such a fun summer. We have gone camping to the most beautiful spot. It was North Fork campground and the stream ran through the back of the camp site. There was also a waterfall to hike up to. We had such a fun time. The Parkins and the Sandbergs came with us and all the kids had fun building a dam in the stream, making swords, exploring and just playing together. We been swimming a ton. We went to Bear Lake over Raspberry Days. That was a lot of fun. The kids loved floating in there tubes and playing in the sand. We've been to the movies, the park, and lots of play dates with the cousins.
