To say this was a crazy week is an understatement! It went by so fast and unfortunately, there just wasn't a lot of time for visiting -- and I felt so bad that Jordy was going to get to play with more of "his age-range"-cousins...and then he couldn't walk/run around with them :( However, he still had a great time when we were able to see them!
We went hiking Y Mountain early Wednesday morning. Luckily Uncle Ben came and was willing to carry Jordy!! The kids were troopers- Cade and Lydia kept running up and down and we'd tell them they were making more work because they had to cover the same ground twice- but they didn't seem to care! Marshall (only 23 months old) walked almost the whole way up himself as well!
No matter how many times I've hiked to the Y, it still is so cool...there are mountains literally yards away that we can hike!! Can the mountains move to WI with us?!
Jordy had a pretty sweet deal...he got carried AND got to eat his breakfast along the way! (Ben got showered with some cereal as well!)
Thanks again, Ben! (Trying to look good during his last days as a single man!! :)
They made it!!! :) Marshall looks like he's thinking about pushing Jordy! :)
Then Mom and Rachel disappeared in the kitchen for the next 2 days. I was only entrusted with 1 brownie recipe to make (haha--I guess Tyler has been telling stories about my cooking?!) But we got to play with Cade, Lydia, and Marshall a bit! They even taught him how to fist-bump! :)
Lydia and Aunt Jessica put together her Frozen puzzle!
Marshall thought the game was called "BREAK the ice"...he was really good at that version! We couldn't put it back together fast enough!
We played a game called "headbanz" (ask questions to guess the object you're wearing) It was pretty fun...Cade was really good at asking questions...a little too good! :)
This little squirt just loves his Grandma! Every time he saw her he would reach out his arms and want HER to hold him! I'm sure he wished she was there just to see him!
Long days of playing and running around make for tired boys!
My cute little shirt twin!! :)
A broken leg won't stop Jordy from dancing! :)
We were able to go to the Payson Temple Open House on Friday morning. It is a beautiful temple and even though it wasn't dedicated yet, there was such a special spirit that could be felt walking in the temple.

Trying to take a picture of all the kids is always an adventure... :)
Because Jordy still didn't have his cast on, he got to swim in the hotel pool the night before the BIG DAY! Unfortunately, it was a little late and he was pretty tired, and it was COLD, so he didn't last long...but he still had fun...especially when he got to sit in the warmer hot tub (not really hot--more like what temperature the pool should have been!)
I don't know who was more excited to see a King size bed in the hotel room...us or Jordy?! The last few nights he hasn't been sleeping well, and then he comes in our bed and clobbers us with his splint. Well- this bed should be big enough for all...
...or so we thought! :) At least he got some sleep!
Ben's Wedding Day!
Even though the weather forecast for almost 2 weeks was saying rain for Ben's wedding-- he had more faith than I did and it ended up being partly sunny! Congratulations to Ben and Carly!!
Taking some silly pictures while waiting...
Oops! Somehow I missed that this was supposed to be a nice picture...my bad... :)
Hahaha! I'd say they're ready for kids! :)
"Look here, no here..."
Too sunny for some...
...and then Jordy wasn't having this angle. Oh well! That's how taking pictures at weddings with kids goes!
Aww man. We forgot Lance's cardboard cutout!! :)
Pictures tired one poor guy out a lot! :)
"Ladies, the tie is off!"
"Where is your shirt little man?!"
"Kid Table": Which is why it is so fitting Tyler wound up there!
