Home Sweet Home

This has been a crazy month! The girls and I have been home for almost a month now, and Reno is finally home for good!! We flew home the beginning of September, and Reno was planning to stay in Alabama and work for a few more weeks, but the last day of the summer we found out his grandma died so he ended up flying home with us. While he was home we had his grandma's funeral, Laney's baby blessing and of course he fit in a quick motorcycle ride with his dad down to Zion's. Then it was back to work in Alabama and Georgia for a couple of weeks. We are so happy to all finally be home and settled in for the rest of the year.
Since the weather has been so nice lately, we went up the canyon with Troy and Jodi for a nice little campfire and some s'mores. Marli loved being in the mountains, I'm not sure if it was the beautiful scenery, the marshmallows, or letting Noah chase her with sticks that made it so fun.


A Day Off

The hardest part about every summer is that I hardly ever get to see my husband, let alone have a decent conversation with him. So when Reno got home for good last week he told me he had a special date planned for me the next day. And oh was it special!!! We went up to Park City and got a couples massage and spa treatment at the St. Regis hotel, which is the 5-star hotel that his sister Sutton works at. We had a wonderful day at the spa, did some shopping on Main St., then headed back up to the hotel for dinner at the J&G Grill. It was such a fabulous day, and I think the best part about it was Reno didn't bring his phone! I love Reno and am so thankful he works so hard for our family, but I'm even more thankful that he would take a day off and spend it with me! This is us riding the "funicular" that you have to ride up to even get to the hotel. It is literally built up in the mountain, and so beautiful!!

Laney's Blessing

We finally blessed Laney the first Sunday of September. It was a beautiful day and Reno gave a beautiful blessing! We waited until we were home from Alabama so that our families could be there so Laney was a little bigger than the other babies being blessed that day. We're just happy that everyone could come so that Reno had a lot of help holding her up during the blessing :).

The Food :)


I think these 2 pictures are pretty funny. We had Laney sitting in the bumbo and covered it with her dress.
