Latest adventure

We just got back from a mini vac/work ation in Southern Utah and we had a blast! I worked and finished my intern hours (finally!) the first week we were there. I stayed with the kids and Luke went home to work for the second week we were there. Wow! I was so glad when he came back on Friday :) My sister and here two new babies came that week too. We spent most of the time at my parents house just vegging (Sawyer got a double ear infection and was a pretty sick little boy so we stayed close to home while he recovered...) we were able to get to the lake for a day and it was FABULOUS! That weekend we were able to spend at the temple for a very special event- Luke's brother and his family were sealed in the St.George temple and it was so so great! We are so happy for them and it was a great weekend at the temple.

We went out to the Ramsay's cabin and Saw had a major blowout when we got there (of course!) - that's why he was naked....

The kids at the cabin
My brother Craig put on a sweet gorilla costume and tried to scare my other brother (we waite forever and it didn't even end up that sweet) but we got some great pictures!


My dad's symphony played at the Grand Canyon so we spent the afternoon/evening there and it was perfect! Great music and great family time














I took Ava swimming one night in Kanab and she LOVED it as always



The Ramsay's after the sealing session


Surprise! Amanda and I walked out of the temple dressing room to find..... we were wearing the same dress! It was so funny and I had to have a picture of it :)

What the!?

An actual new post on the Ramsay's blog!!! Holy cow- we've been SOOOO busy the last month and a half- it's been crazy. I've been working a ton and have finally finished my intern hours- I'm just waiting to get a test date so I can be an actual pharmacist finally :) The kids are growing like weeds- seriously! Sawyer has aged about a year in the last 2 months I think- he's walking along the tables and walls and pulling himself up on all the furniture, 3 months until he's 1 year old! Ava starts preschool in a few weeks and is so super excited. We've been so busy cramming in all the last summertime things we can (like boating tomorrow!). Here's a few pictures of our summer and the good times....


Playing with friends: (how hilarious is it that Sawyer is totally the only one looking at the camera and is cheesing it!?)



Finding random photos on my camera of Ava taking head shots...


Finding cute little animals tucked into bed with Ava



Cooking in our fire pit (we LOVE home ownership!!!)

Learning how to pull up on things at 7 months- and graduating out of the pack n' play (WAY after he should have been taken out of it!)

What a cute pair!

Pictures of Sawyer and Ava at 9 months- I think they are starting to look more similar as Sawyer gets older...
