Ada's Poster

I just thought this was sweet. Ada made this little sign and countdown chain. She is having major eye surgery on Thursday (for her detached retina), and she has been quite nervous about it. We are also nervous, but we are so thankful that the problem was discovered and that there are procedures that can be done to fix the problem. Thursday will probably only be the first of several procedures.

7 Weeks to Go

This is a picture of my big belly at 33 weeks. I have had a pretty good pregnancy thus far. I'm now getting into the big awkward stage and have all of the late pregnancy aches and pains that go along with it. I am excited about the arrival of our new little daughter, and I can't wait to see who she looks like and what her personality will be. I know she will be worth all of the hard work it is to have a baby. They are all worth it.

Jennifer's Visit

We had so much fun with my sister Jennifer and her daughter Amelia last week. They were visiting from Las Vegas. We had fun shopping, visiting the park, at Thanksgiving Point, and celebrating Amelia's Birthday. Gavyn was in heaven with someone to play with all day. He gets so bored with just me every day.

Happy Halloween

UEA Weekend at Lake Powell

We had so much fun at Lake Powell. We went with our friends and neighbors the Fox family and the Newell family. We spent the major portion of each day on the Fox's boat and spent the evenings around the campfire cooking and eating delicious dutch oven food . We can't wait to go back!

Happy #3 Gavyn

Gavyn got this for his birthday, only he is a little scared to ride it. He's tried it out in the driveway a few times, but he's terrified of going into the road even when I am with him. I guess that's good.

Lately, Gavyn has been watching the Disney cartoon version of "The Three Musketeers." He thinks he is a musketeer. He runs around the house yelling. "Musketeers. All for one. All for one." This is him trying out the musketeer costume he got for his birthday.

Singing "Happy Birthday!"

Bryce Canyon

My sister Jennifer did a great job organizing a fun weekend for our family in Bryce Canyon. We camped just outside of Bryce Canyon. We went on some beautiful hikes, were amazed by the scenic redrock of southern Utah, saw a lot of wildlife, and enjoyed the company of the Hadfields.
