New Addition to the Family

When our last cat Sojo ran away shortly after we had Milo. Our home has never felt the same, haha! Ok well really, I was getting used to not having a cat anymore and it was actually preferred! I already had my hands full with 2 little ones. But Cam's good friend was giving away these adorable kittens and yes, I gave in to getting another cat. As cute as she is...I truly contemplated getting rid of her after the first few weeks, for I felt as though I had a 3rd kid. But after a few months and Nolan learning how to treat her we seem to all be adjusted! Slowly but surly. Somedays I question our decision but it is what it is, right?

Welcome home new kitty!
Introducing herself to Nolan

Nolan making sure kitty is equipped with her toys!

So Nolan was on the phone with Nick, so I ran upstairs cause I had to grab something and I come back down and this is were the phone was. Nolan told me that kitty wanted to talk to Dad!
Milo and Kitty!
It's a good thing this cat is patient because we have 2 crazy kids that somewhat torture her! She does great with them. After not having a name for months we finally decided on Mia. I don't know though, I guess it could still change??

St.George-Marben family trip

Well the Marben family took a trip to St. George, Utah in November. It was the first family trip that Nick had ever gone on with my family (sad to say). But I was very excited for him to experience the never ending silliness that happens when we all get together as siblings. I swear we all act like we are 5 again. At least we all enjoy one another's company right? My Dad thought it would be fun to rent a 12 passenger van...and boy was he right. We had so much fun traveling together in that thing. We also had so much fun hiking around checking out petroglyph's, eating out, and relaxing at the condo. We hope to do it again soon!



Our sweet little passenger! He did so good!
we ate out at this yummy resterant (I can't remember the name) but they cooked the food right there before you. It was very entertaining and yummy!
Nolan enjoying the entertainment!
Our sweet ride!
This was the beginning of our hike. The kids both fell asleep in the car so my mom hung back to stay with them while they slept.
