All Good Things Must Come to an End

So... I am the WORST blogger, EVER.

I know.

Anyway, the last 6 months...

The past six months have been THE BEST months of our lives!!

After the RV trip we went to CALIFORNIA to watch Jason complete his IRONMAN TRIATHLON. He finished his 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike ride and then finished off with a full marathon like it was no big deal. To put this into words everyone can understand: if the end of the world comes, Jason will be the last man standing (it also doesn't hurt that he can fix anything and happens to basically RUN Apple).

Ollie turned two. He didn't really know what was happening but someone (i.e. Eric) kept putting frosting on his toes which Ollie was most pleased to find.



We met up with Eric's family in Oregon for a little vacay... IT WAS BEAUTIFUL. Eric and I really took the time to just ENJOY NATURE with all of it's many scents and sounds...

Ok, but seriously, it was so pretty up there...

We met grandpa up in Island Park for a little Golf

and then eventually made our way to North Dakota! We worked in the bees with Pops for a couple weeks. Then we drove some honey back to Utah.

We stopped at Mount Rushmore and I reminisced all the happy memories I have from North Dakota. I got to see so many great people while we were there and spend some time with Jessica. I wish we could live there... and that is wasn't below ZERO there for 4 months of the year...

We came back to Utah... but only to say "good-bye" to some of our favorite people...

before we left we had to measure Ez to see just how much he'd grown
Poor kid.

Now, the BIGGEST news stories:

Jason & Gin had their baby boy:
Maxwell Miller

(I babysat him the other night and he cried the whole time)
I still love him. I'm a sucker for nephew's + 1 niece.

Eric and I went to a Boise State game when they played San Jose and I got a picture with Buster the Bronco. It was SOOOO cool.
Anyway, then I started doing this thing called work that I'm still trying to grasp the concept of... so far it's pretty tough.

After a few weeks of that Ezra came to visit!!!
Oh yeah... Jen came too...
She's the best sister ever!
and no one could hide their excitement... not even Eric, or Ezra!
Grandma came down to see her grandsons and they did some Christmas photos. The whole production was hilarious:

Other than that we have just enjoyed our family SO much. Mike came down for a week for Thanksgiving but I didn't manage to take a single picture. Don't worry Mike, we still love you too.
Lastly, here is a video of Ezra teaching us some SWEET dance moves:
