It has been way too long since my last post. I don't
know if I can keep up with all you awesome bloggers
anymore! I don't know whether I am coming or
going half the time and when I am home.. it is so nice
to just hang out with the family that I forget about
the internet which is way weird for me. Anyway...
life has been one crazy roller coaster lately. Clayton
is in his last year at SUU and has a full schedule. I
decided last minute to get my Masters in accounting
so our schedules have been very interesting. Luckily,
Anna only has to be with a sitter one hour a day. She
loves going there and calls it her "school". She is
such a little sweet heart. She is growing up way too
fast and I miss her little baby stage. I could not
have asked for a better little girl. She has so much
spunk and personality. She is the funniest. Anyway,
here are some pics of what we have been up to lately.
They are in random order because blogger changed
on me and I can't figure out how to change the order
of my pictures anymore. I will try to be a better
blogger in the future!
For Labor Day weekend, we went up and visited the Staheli Fam. (Clayt's sis)
Anna just loves Gracie. They were so cute and got along so well the entire
weekend!
The Staheli's have a sweet little wooden playset in their yard and Anna
loves it!

Anna & Gracie enjoying some fruit loops before 9 long hours at IKEA. They
are such troopers!


I told you my pics were way out of order! This weekend we went to the Great
Stampede Rodeo in Cedar City with my grandparents. Anna got a kick out of
watching the cowboys Me & Neens at the rodeo. It is already getting cold! I'm so bummed.

Here is a cute little pic of our fam and my grandparents. The rodeo
was a blast. I wish I was as daring as all those cowboys and cowgirls.

These are way lame but funny pics. We went to Lagoon with Candace & Chase
on Labor Day weekend and on the way home Clayt & I entertained ourselves
by taking random pics. I thought they were funny of Clayt so I put them on.
Clayt cracks me up. He is a funny person to be around 24/7. Even when I'm
in a grouchy mood... it is hard to stay that way. I love this kid.
I mean really... how could anyone not love him? haha

Another fun pic of Anna on the Staheli's play set.

Our niece, Gracie. She has the prettiest blue eyes!
Little miss Neens. Her and Gracie both have the bluest eyes. They are different
shades of blue but so so pretty.
And last but not least... baby Mikey. Such a stud. He is the best little baby.
He stuck out Lagoon and didn't even get upset!
Another random pic of Clayt & I. I really need to figure out blogger again.
Anna getting pumped to ride some of the "holer coasters" at Lagoon.
Neens & Grace waiting in line for a ride.
They are the cutest.
Grace is so photogenic and so is Anna but she will NEVER look at the camera
when I tell her too. I guess she has some of my stubborn genes.
Gracie does exactly what I tell her. I was like " Gracie.. put your arm around
Anna for this picture" and she did. But Anna still would not look!
Anna loves to cook. Whenever I am making dinner she wants to help and she
does a great job. She always scrambles her own eggs in the morning.

She definitely is my child. She loves the dill pickle sunflower seeds. She does
not really like sweets. What is wrong with us.

Here are the kiddos before we went into Lagoon. Mikey was out but the girls
were so excited.
Clayt, Chase & Canada waiting to buy tickets. We all had a blast and laughed
so hard. Cando is seriously the best person to go on amusement park rides with.
She screams so loud and it is hilarious. Thanks for the fun weekend family! We
love you! Sorry to everyone that this blog is so out of order. I am usually an
orderly person. I can't function like this!

The Robinson's said...

How fun!! It looks like you guys had a way fun weekend... the pics of you and Clayt crack me up! Too funny:)

Angie said...

I too love Clayton (although not like you...at all...no need to worry) those pics are funny and I'm sure he's soooo happy that you posted them for all to enjoy. Thank you. You two are going to be busy busy this year, but it'll be worth it in the end. That's pretty good that Anna only needs a sitter for one hour a day. She is getting so big and is as adorable as ever. Love her!

Lex, I just have to say look at the shirtless men in your last picture at Lagoon. Are they serious? I love it. And I also love the new post. And I also love you. It's good to see what you guys are up too. You look so great!

I just wanted to tell you that one day in the Cooper kitchen I blurted this out ...

"do you guys know who the cutest little girl alive is?"

and they all said

"who?"

Then, I took them all to the computer room and showed them your blog ...

Obviously, they all agreed that she was the cutest little girl ever.

It was a funny moment, I thought that since it was about you and your family, that I should share it with you. :)
