September

Kyle spent June, August, half of September, and October traveling to different orthopedic programs around the country. The kids and I tried to keep busy and sane. We also enjoyed a few short weekends here and there with Kyle. We tried to do fun fall things like camping inside, pumpkin patches and hikes.





Luke also started preschool. He goes to a program at the high school where high school students run a preschool for a child development class. Luke loves the "big kids". He thinks he is super cool because the high school students hang out with him.

Summer Vaca 2010

We spent our summer vacation this year traveling between Utah, Idaho, and California. We sent Garrett off at the MTC. He is now serving a mission in Ukraine.


We went to visit the Cutler's and they were nice enough to let go to a cabin in Island Park with them. Luke LOVES his cousins!

We got to visit with Great Grandparents, both Zwahlen and Hobbs.
We had our first Barry Hobbs Family Reunion and everyone was able to be there!



Then we headed off to California to see Ross and Kay and visit Kyle at one of his ortho rotations. Luke was obsessed with Skeeter, the dog, but Chloe was pretty leary as you can see!

Chloe's 2nd Birthday

We also celebrated Chloe's birthday in Utah. She spent her 2nd birthday during the first Hobbs Family Reunion. All day long she hung out playing in the sand and boating with her cousins.



Then we had a weenie roast and everyone was there for cake and ice cream. She copies her brother, so she had to have a Lady Bug Pillow Pet, which is a theme that continues throughout the year as you will see!

Luke's 4th Birthday

Luke is 4!


Luke's birthday started in Missouri by celebrating with his friends at Chuck E. Cheese's.


Then we drove all the way to Utah to keep up the celebration. We had lunch with Grandma and Grandpa Hobbs in Salt Lake.

Later that night we opened presents and had cake with Tiffany and her kids. His birthday theme was frogs if you couldn't tell. He had been asking for a Frog Pillow Pet for months. That is what I get for letting him watch cartoons with infomercials!

June

Luke graduated from Joy School. It brought back fond memories of my own Joy School graduation more than 20 years ago.


Kelsey came to visit us in KC on her way to moving to Mississippi. We went to see the sights. Shortly after she was married to Kyle Harrington. We are very happy for her.


I turned 28! I am no spring chicken anymore and I feel it.


Chloe is a doll! We were headed to the pool, one of her favorite places.

May Madness

So I am catching up with life since May. It has been a crazy 6 months.

Third times a charm. May was an exciting month that presented pregnancy number 3!

Kyle's Birthday

Kyle is 30!!!! Well he may be 30, but he looks like he is 19 :) Thanks Ross and Kay for the young looking husband!


Our dear friends John and Sarah have to move back to Fiji. We have enjoyed their friendship and hope to visit them.... um maybe in 7 years with our first real pay check!


Uncle Garrett came to visit and we had a great time. The kids love him and still talk about him. We are so happy that he is going to Dipnotorkhgaksjdf.......? Ukraine. Very exciting!
They had face painting at our library last week. Luke LOVED his batman face. He felt like the coolest kid on the block. Chloe on the other hand was freaked out by Luke and cried every time she looked at him. After baths that night Chloe kept saying, "Batman all gone?" She was very relieved!
