I turned 30 in October! It's kind of crazy to be out of my 20s. I look forward to my 30s. I had a great day filled with family and birthday wishes. Ben took me to breakfast and for dinner we went to my favorite restaurant with family, Nello's! If you've never been there, go, it is yummy!!!
My sister in law went to Science camp with her two older girls so I watched her younger three for a couple days with my two. Total we had 5 kids ages 4 and younger! It was a little crazy, but thank goodness I had the help of Ben's brother Hyrum. Here are the kiddos at the park.
This was our last zoo trip with Courtney and Colter Davis. :( They were our zoo buddies in Arizona!!
We took a last Arizona trip to check out two of my favorite places, Tonto Natural Bridge and Fossil Springs. We took Ben's brother Hyrum with us. It was a beautiful day! This is the kids at Fossil Springs.
In preparation for our move to Alaska we sold Big Red! It was a sad day, this scooter was our best friend in San Francisco. Maybe in Alaska we can look for a snow machine! :)
I love these families!! We were able to get together with the McDonoughs and Ences for our annual reunion trip in St. George this year. The Ences were wonderful hosts and we had a great time hanging out! 
We are moving! It hasn't seemed totally real, except now it is only two weeks away. We have decided to head north just in time for the winter! We are making the move to Anchorage, Alaska. So if any of you need a fun get-a-way, keep us in mind! :)
Benson turned 2 in July! I can hardly believe that my baby is that old. He is a crazy kid who brings so much joy to our family! For his birthday we went to the Phoenix Children's Museum during the day and then had a lasanga dinner that night. Here is Benson with his school bus cake. (His favorite song is "The Wheels on the Bus")
On the same trip to Utah we were able to go up to Bear Lake and meet up with my dad and the girls. Ben flew in this weekend too, so we could all be together for the 4th of July. It was so nice to just relax and enjoy the cool weather! 
Heidi and I and the kids headed up to Utah for our cousin Tiffanie's wedding. While we were there we took the kids to Lagoon. We were able to meet up with Nate and Millie too. We all had a blast. I was impressed at the number of kids rides that there were. This shot was taken after a blue Icee.
We were all able to go on the log ride. Benson is in my lap, I couldn't quite get a shot of the whole gang.
This was on one of those spinning rides. It was so funny to watch the kids faces. They both take after their mom and love to get dizzy!
In June we had the chance to go up to Utah for Lilly Mishler's blessing. David and Cindy did great work with this little cutie!
Her hair is amazing!!
Our family at Bridal Veil Falls.
My brother Nate and his wife Millie bought a house. In the backyard after having had a huge bonefire to burn out an old tree stump they dug this hole to make their own swimming pool. The kids loved it!! 
We celebrated Heidi's 23rd birthday with a strawberry cake and breakfast at Denny's. Nate was able to join us for breakfast. (Can't get a serious picture out of this kid!)
Michelle and I took a weekend trip out to St. George to visit Tami and meet this cute little man. Reggie was adorable!
Easter was wonderful! Benson and Kenadee loved finding Easter eggs in the backyard.
