The Lies Family's Latest

Our family has had a very busy month!!! Cruz is wondering if he will ever be home for more than a few days at a time. We have had a lot of fun...but we have never missed our baby so much!

BUBBA WINS AGAIN!!!
This was one of my favorite memories of the month! We went to Salt Lake and watch the AMA Supercross. It was awesome. We were only 25 row up, and it was amazing how great the view was. Although it would have been nice to have good weather...we enjoyed ourselves anyway. We had a huge group of family and friends, so these are only a few of the pictures.
Notice...not one single serious picture of my sexy husband!!!
This is a picture of the smoke circle in the sky. It was crazy how long it stayed up there...Each time a race was beginning they blew these huge torches, which made these circles. (I know...totally something my dad would take a picture of. hahaha)
Welcome to our crazy trip to Philadelphia for Taylor's Physician Assistant Interview. Our trip was so insane, these are the only pictures we even took. We are at Pens Landing. It was kinda cool to see all of the ships, and submarines. Again, Taylor can't be serious...but he looks good right?!?!?!
Philly was pretty fun, and definitely an eye opening experience! Our wonderful GPS took us through the ghetto of Philly, so we got a taste of the REAL Philly. Thank goodness the school is in a nice area. It was beautiful, busy, stressful, and fun! We loved the school, but not so much living thousands of miles away from family. We see what the Lord has in store. Go Vegas GO!!!
Nana and Papa spoiled Cruz this Easter with ANOTHER bike! He is obsessed. Unfortunately, there was some assembly needed. Papa and daddy couldn't get the darn thing put together fast enough. The real problem was Cruz wanted to help, and kept hauling the tools away. It was quite entertaining.



We also went to Las Vegas for another Physicians Assistant interview. We LOVED Vegas and are praying that it is the place for us. We had fun in Vegas, but we were only there over night and only had time to look around the area, before we both passed out for the night.
Our funny story for this trip, was that the morning of Tay's interview, I lost the keys to the car in Walmart. Me and my pregnant brain!!! I was a mess. I walked around Walmart and checked the car 10 times, all the while bawling. Finally, I was walking around PRAYING that Heavenly Father would help me remember where I'd left them, when it dawned on me I'd set them down after I paid for our food. It was horrible...but hilarious afterwards. My wonderful husband only said one cuss word and helped me search Walmart. He is sooo great!

Anyway, we have since found out Taylor has made the waiting list for both schools!!!! We are so excited and can't wait to find out where our adventure will land!! We love you all! Thanks for all of your love and support and your help with our little Cruz!!! He had a blast with Jake, Crystal, and Tyler, while we were in Philly. Then, he had a blast with Nana Chelle, Tyson, and Marissa, while we went to Vegas!
We find out Monday whether Cruz will have a brother or sister in October...we'll let you know!!

We are so thankful for our families and the years we have had together! We are so thankful for the gospel and the knowledge and joy it gives us! We pray that the P.A. thing will work out for the best! LOVE YOU ALL!!

Holy Smokes, I'd say you've been busy! I can't wait to hear where you end up, and what brand of muffin is in the oven! So exciting!

Hey--you don't know me but I knew the Lies family growing up--I found your blog through Marissa's. Taylor would know me as Kellie Savage.....anyway I live in Las Vegas! I'm hoping you can make your way here because we were in the same predicament as you guys. My husb had job offers on the east coast and Vegas. We were really hoping for Vegas because we didn't want to be so far from family! And so far, Las Vegas has been good to us!

You have a darling family--tell Taylor hello and good luck with your coming move! The southwest part of Vegas is the best in case you head this way! If you do move here we would be happy to help you out!!!
