2 YEARS....Happy Anniversary!

I can't believe it's been 2 years! Time keeps flying by faster and faster. We got married June 9, 2007, but this year we celebrated a few days early. This year our anniversary is on Tuesday and we actually have a birthday class on that day, which I think is pretty funny. So we decided to celebrate on the weekend! Brock got off work early and it was my day off so we were able to spend all sorts of time together! That night we went to dinner at my all time favorite, Cafe Rio. Can't get enough of it and I have craved it all day long my whole pregnancy. My pork salad tasted extra good, probably cause we were celebrating. :) We then went and saw the 3D movie "UP". Very cute show, and so sweet to see it in 3D. What a fun night we had!!

Happy Anniversary Sweetie! What an amazing two years we have had together. I wouldn't change a thing about it, even the hard times. They have only made us stronger and closer together. We have so much fun together and what can I say...we make a dang good team. Everything is better when we're together. You make me one happy woman, and I can't wait for you to be the best daddy ever! You still make me laugh everyday and I thank you for that. Thanks for being by my side always. I LOVE YOU. FOREVER.

Memorial Day weekend

Over Memorial Day weekend us and our posse took a little road trip to Sunny St. George....oh how I love it there! Our families are amazing- they fed us and hosted us way too well. THANKS a MILLION DAD and MOM! We had an absolute BLAST! Nice HOT weather and plenty of sun, Zion's, sleeping in, relaxing and having FUN from the minute we got there until the minute we left -- literally. That's one of my favorite things about our friends is we don't know how to stop having fun. We don't waste a minute together! I want to let my cute friends know how amazing they are. Words can't express- they are the best examples Brock and I could have in our lives right now. They are truly "family away from home" and we WILL be friends for life. THANK YOU CHAR, BENJY, MEL and REED. You mean the world to us. Here is a few pics to show you how much fun we acutally had....

ShOuT oUt To ThE sIsTeRs

So I ran into this random picture on my computer the other day and thought I would give a SHOUT OUT to my darling sister-in-laws. YOU TWO ROCK and I just love you!

There's a first time 

for everything....

My belly is officially too large to paint my toenails. So my sweetheart husband gladly said yes when I asked him if he would paint them for me. Wow, does he love me or what?! I was quite impressed how great of a job he did...a lot better than I ever do. Thanks Sweetie!! My feet now feel pretty again.

Well done!

oh and here's a 31 week belly pic

Scootin' at the Park

The other day Brock and I decided to take our razor scooters to the park to have some fun. We found our new favorite park! It's so sweet. It's huge for starters... Has nice sidewalk all around, lots of different paths to scoot on.. It has little picnic pavilions all over.. A great playground for kids, and also a sweet swing thing that spins in circles.. A pretty pond with tons of ducks, even baby ones swimming behind their mama.. It has a green house.. Plenty of clean bathrooms.. Soft very green grass and beautiful landscape. Gosh, what more could you want at a park!

Women's Conference @ BYU

here we are! Lis & Lon & Mamas

smootch from mama...LOVE HER!

had to get a 'funny' of lis & lon

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *This HAS to be one of my favorite traditions that we have made in the last couple years...Girls Weekend @ Women's Conference @ BYU with Mom, Loni, and Tammy. All our classes we went to were just perfect for us. Gave us plenty of HOPE for the future. Since Loni is my sister and Tammy is like my second Mom, it's kinda like a family affair! As close as it can be at least. I had such a great weekend, and I miss Loni and Tam like CRAZY now that I don't see them often. One day we'll live in the same town again. One day... Mama, Lon, and Tam- Thanks for having such a fun weekend with me! I loved it so so much. Can't wait for next year!

 

 WICKED @ capitol theater in slc

WOW! All I have to say is WOW! Brock, my sweetie, got my WICKED tickets for Valentine's Day this year at Capitol Theater in SLC. Let me just start out by saying Brock and I are not "play people".... WICKED KNOCKED OUR SOCKS OFF!! Capitol Theater is such an amazing place to see any play I'm sure, but that's not what made the play so amazing. For one, the plot of the play is just great, very entertaining, and for two the actors that were chosen were OUT OF THIS WORLD! I'm positive they couldn't have been any better. We couldn't listen to the Wicked soundtrack on the way home because the voices on the cd just couldn't do it for us anymore. At intermission, Brock and I stood up SPEECHLESS, looked around the theater and realized everyone else was the same way. Those of you that have seen it or have read the book (which doesn't come close to the play, sorry) right before intermission was the scene Defying Gravity. Need I say MORE? Amazing. Absolutely amazing. After the play, I think the first thing Brock said to me was "when we are old and rich, we WILL have season tickets to Capitol Theater". I agreed. So thanks WICKED for turning Brock and I into "play lovers"!

HAPPY EASTER

Easter was so much fun! Us and our posse had our Easter tradition of coloring eggs. Also, had amazing root beer floats that hit the spot! It was such a great night. Ben and Char have a new addition to their cute family...Baby TROY! Can't get enough of him. He makes us SO excited for our sweet little boy to come. (well, hopefully sweet.) Brock and I are hoping that our kids don't get ANY of our egg coloring skills, or else they'll NEVER win a egg coloring contest, just like Brock and I. When everyone was done coloring eggs we all voted on the top 7 eggs. None of Brock and I's eggs came close. HA! Which was well deserved, we will both admit. We still had a blast.

SLC @ Macaroni Grill

OH HOW WE LOVE GOOD FOOD! I highly recommend the Marsala Chicken Ravioli at Macaroni Grill. So YUM! We had quite the group at dinner and it was so great... My cute parents, my mom's cute dad and step-mom, my mom's cute sister and family, and my cute brother and sister-in-law and my adorable nephew. I LOVE my family and can't get enough of them. We went to visit and play in SLC for the day and hit up Mac Grill. 

 Thanks again Grandpa for dinner! 

Myself and Baby Kitch just LOVED it!!

 Sunny St. George
We LOVE St. George and miss it so much! Over spring break Brock and I went to Sunny St.George to visit and to watch Brock's little brother, Matt, play in a SWEET baseball tournament. Matt pitched amazingly. It was SO much fun watching him play, and made me excited to have a little boy to hopefully watch him play sports. You ROCK Matt!!

 We also had a BLAST playing kickball, enjoying the summer weather...cause it is April and SHOULD be warm by now. 

Provo hasn't QUITE received that memo yet.
