went to Utah the last week of August while Nate went to Atlanta
for training. Nate joined us over the weekend and we had Kya's
birthday party...the pictures are out of order so you'll see those
at the end...oops! Nate then flew to Savannah and the next day
to Dallas. He came back to Savannah for the weekend and then
flew to Montana for a trip that he earned from the company! I'll
try to upload some pics of his trip...he went horseback riding, fishing
and river rafting! I was so jealous! He had a busy three weeks and
hopefully things will slow down and he can have a moment to breathe!
So while Nate was flying around the country, Kya and I were in Utah
still hanging out with family and friends! It was so good to see
everyone!
Kya is loving summer and can not get enough of SWIMMING!
You can see below that YES she can swim...not the best
but she is doing amazing for just turning 2!!! I am so proud of her
and she works so hard everytime she is in the water to do better.
I can see that she will be able to do anything that she puts her
mind to...she is amazing! She is jumping off the diving board and
going down the slide all by herself and loves every minute of it!
She will go and get everyones swimsuit for them and tell them..
"suit...suit...suit" to get them to put on their swimsuit and take
her swimming! So cute!
We had our traditional dinner at Samurai 21 before Kya
and I left...that girl loves rice, edamame and noodles! She
also loves wasabi?!?! Funny huh!
Cherie, Taylor, Tim and my dad enjoying dinner!
Cher, Tim, me and Kya-bird!
Kya really enjoys things that taste like mint...including
floss. She proceeded to unroll the whole package...sorry
because she really enjoyed the luau we went to earlier
in the summer. One thing led to another and it turned
into a great big bash and we loved every minute of it!
We were able to see so many people that we don't get to
very ofter and we are so thankful for everyone that came!
Thank you! We had a blast and hopefully everyone did as well!
We roasted a pig while everyone was swimming and playing on
the bounce house/water slide! That water slide was the best! We
did have a few injuries...Jen and Abbie...I'm not sure who else but
I was sore after all that climbing and diving!Good times! We had
an awesome volleyball game going too! It was great to see everyone
and thank you all for your help and for coming! We love you!
The Birthday Girl!!!

family do some dancing for us! That was so fun and
everyone enjoyed them! Some people were picked
on to go up and dance(sorry Ashlee) and that turned
out to be hilarious! Tim is an amazing dancer as you
can see...he might have made the poor girl a little
uncomfortable but everyone else was rolling on the ground!
Sorry the pics aren't the greatest...it was a little dark.
The next weekend we went up to Wellsville for
Labor Day/Founders Day and were able to
hang out with family. Kya loved the parade and
playing with all the kids...she has come out of
her shell and its so fun to watch her play with
everyone! She is such a sweet girl and loves to give
hugs and kisses to everyone! Now back to Savannah
to recover...
