AND THE BABY IS A............

to be continued....... :) Okay Okay, we are having another little girl!! I am so excited, and so is Lauryn! She was the winner guessing it would be a girl. The boys wanted a boy go figure, but they are excited too. It will be nice to have it evened out to two and two. We couldn't be happier and are so glad that everything looked good and healthy at the ultrasound.

Our Crazy Exciting Night!!!

Last night Tyler was working late and I had put the kids to bed pretty early and was chilling in the family room watching T.V. and I could hear my neighbor behind us yelling out her back door at my neighbor next to us who was jumping on the tramp with his girls. So I opened my back door to see what it was all about and I hear her say Mt. Lion. I thought huh? Then this kid from our ward comes jumping over our fence and runs through our back yard and jumps into our neighbors yard. I went out front to see what the heck was going on and the Animal Control was out there and they were saying there was a mountain lion that they had been chasing. They weren't sure where it had gone, but though maybe it had run into our neighbor Jeff and Melissa's garage. So they hurried and shut the garage in case it was in there. One by one we kept getting more and more police cars in front of the house. Tyler got home shortly after and drove up to a house full of police and was wondering what was going on!! They found that it was in fact in the garage so they just had to wait for the people from the Dept. of Wildlife Resources to get there with the tranquilizers. They went in and tranquilized it and we had quite the crowd of people waiting to see it. Once they opened the garage door they let everyone take pictures and pet it before they took it away. It surprisingly didn't do any real damage to the garage, a broken weed eater and a couple claw marks in the garage door and some pee on the floor was about it. :) Channel 2 News came and our neighbor Jeff was on the news last night. Here are some pictures we got....

This was the scene at our house when Tyler got home from work. I would be a little nervous pulling up to this!!


Here is a shot of a small portion of the people waiting to see the Cougar!! Looks like we are ready for a parade or something!!


And here it is...

Check out it's long tail!!
Tyler and his new friend the Cougar!! Not everyday you get to hold a Cougar like that!

This is Jeff our friend and neighbor whose garage it was in.

And here is Nat with the Cat!


Here they are putting a tag in it's ear so they can keep track of it if it ever came down in neighborhoods again.

These are the claw marks in the garage door. Quite the souvenir.

And here is Jeff talking with Chris Jones from Channel 2 News... Never thought something like this would happen in our neighborhood! We really aren't THAT close to the mountains that your would think one would come down this far. But it made for a good story, and no one was hurt!

Our Official Blog Announcement.....

Preschool Graduation, Haircut, and Tyler's big "32" B-day!!

Jordan is a preschool Graduate!! He is so excited to start Kindergarten. He was so excited for his program, but then when they did it, he got embarrassed and wouldn't really sing any of the songs. Oh well, he's still cute as ever!

His teacher Miss Nicole giving his his graduation present.

Jordan Not singing...
He did do his part in the little story they did.
