I {heart} Midway

Just a quick message, cause my bags aren't even packed & I am leaving for Vegas tomorrow night. Our trip out west went rather well. We were blessed with decent weather and patient children. We had a fun birthday party for Marley at Jamie's house a few days after we got here. It was fun to have everyone here (except Joni, Derek, & kids...grrrrrrr). We signed Ky up for his new school, and he is really liking it so far. He has a bff who lives across the street from us, so they get to play alot together! Marley has taken a liking for the daycare at the local gym, so I get some "free time" every morning. Matt is working hard at his job, and is enjoying it so far.

When we decided to stay in Midway, we weren't sure we were going to like the small town, or the drive down to visit SLC. But it is growing on us! We are really impressed with how nice the people have been to us. I think I am even liking the slower pace of life in the mountains. We have found some really good places to eat too (shout out to Tony's Tacos!). The movie theater here is only open on the weekends, but the grocery store is 24-7...so I can deal? It is an adjustment, but I think I really like it here(sorry Jamie).

We miss our friends & family back east like CRAZY! Thanks for all your love & support! Now, dry your tears and check out the cute pictures of my kids! Love you all, Alie

Oh wait, not here. I swear they're mine! :)












P.S. Joni, are you up for a Vegas weekend at Tracy's? Just letting you know we are going there the last weekend of January, and Mom and Quenneville's will be there too. It was SOOOOO fun to see that video of Kate walking!!! How exciting!!!!

Our Singing Son

The family pictures of you are great! It made us miss all of you that much more. And a Happy Belated Birthday to Marley! I'm so sorry we missed it. Boy, we're always left out, aren't we? Next time let us know if you're all getting together. We may surprise you...

Mikey discovered singing over the last few months. His favorite songs to sing are Christmas Songs. He even sang "No" over Christmas... Alison witnessed that. ("No, Ho, Ho, Mistletoe hung where you can see-ee") Here he is singing what he calls "Scott and Jessie's Song." We're not sure why. It's the Jason Mraz song "I'm Yours."
