Saturday Fun


Daniel and I went bowling with my family today. It was a lot of fun, even though my highest score was 62. Dad and Dan battled it to the end, and Richie did surprisingly well. Heather and I used bumpers, I don't know about Heather, but I needed the help. Today was also the day that I allowed Jacob to help me feed him. He got baby food everywhere!

Busy Week!

This week has been full of big events! My Sister-in-law had a beautiful baby girl named Abby. She was born on Memorial Day. Rachel graduated High School today, Dan and I are so proud of her and how she excelled in High School, good luck at Snow! It has also been great having Angie in town. She is leaving on Saturday morning, it has been great being able to hang out with her, we miss her when she is up in Washington.

Happy Mothers Day!


Happy Mothers Day! Yesterday was mothers day and I just wanted to say thanks to my Mom and all the other women in my life who have helped me and been there through my life. Grandma, Kim, Lisa, Anne, Jamie ... All of you who where there for me when I was young and even now. I was blessed to have wonderful women in my family. So this is a thank you to all of you! And a special thanks to my mother-in-law... you raised a good son. He made me breakfast for mothers day and let me rest all morning while he changed messy diapers and played with Jacob. Here are some pictures from Sunday's Mothers Day get together.

Friday Fun!



Daniel got off a bit early today so we went up to Tibble Fork. No fish where caught and it got a bit chilly, but it was great fun. It was Jacob's first excursion into the wild outdoors. We also had a Poker Night at my parents. We used runts as currency and the bananas where worth twice as much as the other runts. Rachel kicked butt, she cleaned us out! Everyone had a good poker face except Richard. It was fun just hanging out with the family. Oh yea, Dad let Dan drive the mustang.... don't know if that was such a good idea.

Bean Museum



Daniel had Tuesday off, and since it was such beautiful weather on Monday, we thought we would go have a picnic and go fishing up the American Fork canyon. But then the wind started, and the temperature dropped, by the late afternoon there was snow. We decided it was best we not go up the canyon and freeze. We decided to go to the bean museum instead! It was a lot of fun, I remember going there a lot as a kid with my parents. Jacob was more interested in all of the kids running around then the animals. After the museum we went to the BYU creamery for ice cream. It was crazy good! Even though are plans for a fun outdoor day didn't turn out, we still had a great day.

Weekend Accomplishments




Jacob is growing in leaps and bounds! He had his six month doctor visit last week and he weighs 15 pounds 9 ounces. He is also making headway on the crawling front. He is starting the scootch, and has begun to figure out that he needs to lift himself with his legs and his arms. He can sit up by himself, just not very sturdy yet. But the biggest news, he picked up a cheerio and put it in his mouth then ate it! I don't know why I find this so amazing, but I do. Dan also is a happy guy, we got him a SUV this weekend. It is an older SUV, blue, and a manual. And he is happy, and more than willing to do errands. We're healthy and happy, life is good!
