Anyone miss the 80's?

Last night, I got together with my favorite bunch of girls! We decided on an 80's theme! We had so much fun acting like teenagers again!

Doing back-bends was not a good idea for me to do in a dress!

We played MASHO! I marry TyTy, drive a minivan, make $5.62/year, have 10 kids, live in a mansion in California, own a vacation home in Hawaii, and die when I am 89! (It all sounds good except my income! haha)

Cami and Janeth dancing and singing together!

Cami- she just scored at "Butt Bowling!"

Check out these girls! Especially their faces!

Toe touches! Go Cami! I know with practice you can do it!

Go Janeth!

I think Katie is out of our league! She looks great!

Aren't we sweet?

Rock it Girls!

Janeth and Lindsie rocking out!

Cami and Michelle

I was told that I look too cute, and needed to be more crazy!

Cami- I really miss you! This makes me laugh so hard!

Lindsie could compete with Elaine on Seinfeild!

Cami showing us how she impresses her kids!

Aren't they lucky to have such a fun mom?

Thanks girls for being such wonderful friends! I love you all!

Goodbye Summer

Last Monday, we celebrated with Tyler's family for Labor day!

First, we looked through 3D glasses to help us decide on a place to hike.

We decided to go to Lake Mary

Roy, Mace (hiding on my back,) Sadie, Ben, Meredith and Elizabeth

Mace had fun eating Grandpa's food, taking his hat and glasses, and taking Grandpa on walks.

Tyler and Ben had fun skipping rocks across the lake.

Family Picture (Mace wouldn't let us hold him!)

(We didn't know that they had drained most of the lake. It was really cool being on ground that is usually underwater!)

Beautiful Blue

Yesterday, my sister, Whitney invited Mace and I to come to Wheeler Farm with them to take some pictures. Mace and I had so much fun! Mace was great at smiling and being happy!

I was only going to post one picture, but I couldn't decide which one!

I love them all!

(And there are more! I just need to get the rest from my sister!)

Mace telling Jokes

This morning, Mace and I were eating breakfast. He starts talking in his jiber jaber and laughing! It was so funny. He is getting more personality everyday! I love him!

The Battle

Sometimes, medicine is no fun to take.

This makes me think of Mary Poppins.

"Just a spoon full of sugar helps the medicine go down!"

Only 9 more doses to go . . . .

Happy Birthday Tyler!

Last week we celebrated Tyler's birthday! Our friends, Jesse and Angela Coleman-Martinez watched Mace while Tyler and I got dinner to go at Barbacoa! (Our favorite!) We ate at the park, walked around and then went and walked through some houses that were being built. (Another one of our favorite things to do together!) We found a house that made us feel dizzy! Then, we went to Tyler's parent's house because his grandparents had just come in to town! Tyler got money, a basketball, football and soccer ball (all for him and Mace to play together) and an avalung! I sure hope you had a great day babe! I love you!

Mosquitoes

Last week, we went bouldering with our friends, Greg and Mallary Carling. It was great! The worst part was getting bit by mosquitoes about 40 times!

Here is my right arm. You can see the swelling from so many bites!

The back part of my right arm.

It was very hard to keep from itching!

Brotherly Fun

Last night, we had a going away part for Brad. He is leaving on Wednesday to New York. He will be attending NYU for law school! (BTW, NYU is ranked among the top 5 schools in the country!) We are very proud to have Brad as our brother. He is a great guy and we are going to miss him terribly!

Here is how Tyler and Brad celebrated:

Tyler didn't want a lot of whipped cream on his strawberry shortcake. Brad wanted him to have a lot, so he piled more whipped cream on Tyler's plate. To get rid of the unwanted whipped cream, Tyler smashed his plate into Brad's face! Brad, then returned the favor!

Stretching . . . .

A Nicholson tradition: trying to kick the cords on the fan.

(Make sure you check out their faces! Completely PRICELESS!)

Goofing around

We love you Brad!

Swallow your food!

Mace forgets to chew and swallow sometimes!

I love the chipmunk cheeks!

Basketball in the Bath

Mace got a basketball hoop that he can play with in the bath for his birthday! He loves it! It is really funny to watch him shoot! Go Mace!

Park City

Tyler took me on a surprise date on Monday. He told me that we were going on a date, but he wouldn't give me any clues. We dropped Mace off at Tyler's parents and took off! We drove to Park City, where we went shopping in the outlet malls. Then, we went to the theaters and saw Inception. We really enjoyed the movie! Then, for my final surprise, Tyler told me that he had reserved a hotel room and we were staying the night! Tyler is such a great husband! Thank you so much for the wonderful surprise! It was a great night and I had fun spending time with you!

Feeding the Ducks

Mace loves the ducks! And I am sure they love the bread we bring them! Mace holds a small piece of bread in each hand and refuses to give the ducks anything!

It is a fun way to spend some time outside!

Ophir Canyon

Last weekend we went decided to go somewhere neither of us had ever been. We looked online and found Ophir Canyon. It wasn't too far away so we packed a lunch and took off! We found the city of Ophir pretty easy. It is a small, old mining town. There is only one road (Main Street), which everything is off of.

This is the Town Hall and Fire Station

Have you ever seen a town that posts a "Quiet Time" sign?

We visited the historical park

We had a lot of fun and decided that we want to explore more places that we have never been!

Tyler and Mace driving in the Basement

We put Mace's dump truck together that Grandma and Grandpa McCormick gave him! He loves it! Fun family times! I am so glad that he laughed in this movie! This is how he laughs all the time! It sounds like he is coughing or trying to clear his throat! So funny!

Mace Destroying his Birthday Cake!

I just love watching this movie! It makes me laugh every time! I thought Mace would do a pretty good job at eating/destroying his birthday cake, but I had no idea this is how it would be! I love this little guy so much! He has changed my life so much! I love being a mommy. I never knew how much I could love a person until he came into our lives. My love for Tyler grew so much the day Mace was born! We are so lucky and blessed that we get to be parents!

My camera was struggling with the focus during this movie. Anyone want to donate to the fund to buy me a new video camera?
