True Colors

We are back from our first trip out West this summer. We had a great time. The Bates Reunion was fun for all and Kellie's wedding was beautiful. I will add more details and pictures soon. We are leaving for California in 19 days. I am not sure that I will have time to recuperate or get as much done around here as I would like to, but I am going to try. My biggest obstacle right now? AUDZILLA! The boys have started calling her this because she seems to attack her toys more than play with them. She is into everything. This house has not been child-proofed since we moved in two years ago. Child-proofing is so much harder with three older kids leaving stuff out and Wal-mart does not have a gate wide enough for our stair case. She is a terror and explores and destroys in a way that none of her older siblings did at this age.

After California, we will be in Utah for a couple of weeks. So, my dear Utah friends, if you are around, I would love love love to see you! Let's plan something.

More soon. Audrey calls. Our entire trip to Utah, she was so good. Everyone commented on her amazing behavior. But I am telling you, I think that she puts on a sweet face for public even more that her mother does, because she is a major stinker at home!

I am so impressed on how you drive back and forth to Utah with four kids!! I think I would have leave one or two of mine on the side of the road and pick them up on my next excurssion...That or I would tie them to teh top of the van:) I was sad we missed you, but I am sooo glad you are coming back. Have fun In CALI!! And good luck with Audzilla. I had to think about that for a minute to get it, lol!
