Yo Mindy...
my spider totally trumps yours.
This beast has been hanging out in the corner of our backyard. Can you say 'Charlotte'? I totally expect to see the word 'awesome' weaved into that web tomorrow morning.
YIKES!! Now that is what I would call a HuMoNgOuS spider. Of course I don't have a PVC pipe to compare it to, but believe me, my spider could eat your spider for breakfast - (especially since yours is already dead).

Three Months & Stuff
Luke is three months old today. I know I should follow that phrase with, "I can't believe it has already been three months." But, instead I am saying, it's only been three months?! It was such a busy summer and so many things happened, that it makes Luke's birth seems like a long and distant memory.
Luke is such a good baby and I never hesitate to say that when asked how he's doing. I am 100% in love with my little guy.
Just look at that face. How could you not love a face like that? Of course, he is not always so content. He does pack a powerful punch, I mean scream, when he feels like it.
He loves to suck on his hands, particularly his thumb if he can get a hold of it. I fear I may have my first thumb sucking baby.
He is a mama's boy - big time. Don't get me wrong, he loves Dad too, he just doesn't know it yet. For now, he only tolerates his Dad in small doses...very small doses.
He has added so much to our little family in his three short (but very long) months on earth, and has earned a big, soft spot in my heart.
In other Smiley news, fall is in the air. The days are getting shorter, the air conditioner is rarely turned on, the leaves in the canyons are beginning to change color, and school has begun - for me. I am back at it again this semester, but not at SLCC. I decided it is about time I finish up my art degree, so I am back at the U of U. I feel inadequate and out of touch with my skills, but am so excited at the prospect of graduating in the spring! And yes, I will be throwing myself a big ol' partay when I'm done. Taking ten years to earn a degree definitely deserves a party.
Since fall is in the air, we spent one final day at the splash park.
We have gone to a splash park every week this summer and have had oh so much fun. Lots of good memories there, like the time a bee pooped on Mindy's beach bag. Or the time Mindy "lost" her keys. Come to think of it, the splash park wouldn't have been near as exciting without the Eyres.
In all seriousness, the splash park provided more than just water fun for the kids. More importantly, much time was spent relaxing and conversing with good friends and family. What could be better? If you didn't join us this year, there is always next summer!
And now that fall is here, so is football season. Go UTES!!
