What a Summer!

With just a few weeks left here in Utah, we've been reflecting on all of the fun we've had. It's been an experience not having a place of our own for the last few months. More than anything though, we're glad that mama and papa Bench were willing to put us up at their house this summer. We had a barbeque for Lindsay's sister's birthday tonight, and the whole family was together. It was pretty great, and we're really going to miss having everyone around. Here are a few of Hailey's favorite things about staying at Grandma's house:

Baths with Kamdyn


Her very own car


Running through the sprinklers


...and sweeping the garage in the buff

A new addition to the Millsies

We've been putting off making this announcement, but we finally couldn't wait any longer. Lindsay is pregnant! We expect the baby will be due at the end of January or beginning of February next year. We should find out if we're having a boy or a girl shortly after we get back to North Carolina at the end of August. Unfortunately, Lindsay has been pretty darn sick, although compared to her last pregnancy this one is a walk in the park (when she was pregnant with Hailey she was kneeling at the porcelain throne multiple times a day, this time it's usually only once or twice a day). We're excited to have another kiddo joining our family, especially if this next one is as amazing as Hailey has been.

Speaking of Hailey being amazing, we went with Lindsay's parents to the Ute Stampede Rodeo on Friday night and stayed the night down at the family cabin. Here's a photo from the Rodeo and a video from the cabin:

Happy 4th of July

For the 4th of July we made the 8-hour drive out to Colorado Springs to visit Brian's family. It was an eventful and fun weekend.

We spent Friday hanging out at Brian's parents' house, Saturday at a water park with the whole Mills clan, and on Sunday, Brian's brother blessed his little boy.
