Easter

Easter was a blast! Tom was lucky enough to have a six day weekend over Easter so we were able to go to Simpson Springs with my dad. We were also lucky enough to be able to borrow Layne and Laura's camping trailer and four-wheeler, and Matt's motorcycle! Thanks everyone! It was so fun to spend time just playing. The Easter bunny left candy and swimming suits for Alyssa and my unborn baby boy. Oh yeah I AM HAVING A BOY!!!!! We are super excited! So yeah Easter was way fun and I hope you like the few pics I remembered to take ha.

This is my baby driving a four wheeler by herself, sorta, Tom had to be close because she cant steer and she takes off pretty quickly sometimes ha ha.

These are just some pics from boring days at home. Yes my little girl loves to pretend to shoot us with daddy's BB gun and you can see it in her evil smile. She also likes to make jewelry with play dough, perfectly rounded child if you ask me ha ha!

My sisters in law and I had a mommies day while our hubbies went hunting. We decided to let the kids make Valentines Day cookies and they had a blast! Alyssa's cookie got broken but it started out in the shape of a heart.

Alyssa turned two on January 28. She was probably confused because for the entire month of January we got gifts and had little celebrations so by the time her real birthday came she had already celebrated it too many times. However it was a lot of fun and she got great gifts from lots of people. These pictures are of her actual birthday and the amazing cake was made by my wonderful sister Cortney. Thanks to all who helped make her birthday month so fun!

Christmas Parties

This is Christmas at Grandma Margo's house. We had an awsome ham and turkey dinner and opened presants. I was a blast! Great Grandma "J" came and gave great gifts too. I didnt take as many pictures as I should have because I had my video camera out. So here are the few fun things I took Pictures of. After we opened presants we went to Temple Square to look at the lights. That was fun but sorta cold.

This was Christmas Eve at Grandpa Scuba Steve's house. We had lots of fun eating brunch and opening gifts. Grandma brenda told us some stories to help us appreciate all that we have and I think it helped us feel the Christmas spirit. After that we went to Petersens to eat dinner and play dodgeball.

This is christmas at Grandma Mac's house. It was so fun to see all the kids open thier gifts. The adults do gag gifts after the kids start playing with their new toys and it is so much fun. I am sad that I dont have pictures of it though because my camera died.



The first snow of the year!

Every year we go to the McFarland family cabin to get our Christmas trees. This year we went the first week in December. It was way fun but there wasn't any snow to play in. It was still pretty cold though.

Silly Alyssa

She looks like a great little mommy with her shoes, baby and camera.

Alyssa got all of her animals and put them to bed on the stairs. It was so cute. She spent all day on those stairs.


Cute hair huh? I was pretty proud of myself for doing something other than piggy tails ha ha. Tom thinks she looks like a bug but I like it.

Guess What!

So I am about seven weeks pregnant and since Tom told his family I guess everyone else can know. I was going to wait a little while to tell, but its ok I guess. I am due on July 23, 2009. I found out I was pregnant about two weeks ago. Yay! I went to the doctor early this time just to make sure everything is going well and it is.

Thanksgiving

We went to my dad’s house for Thanksgiving dinner the Monday before thanksgiving because he and Brenda were going to see Rylan get baptized! Congrats Rylan, we are so proud of you!! So Alyssa found some fun glasses in Kailee’s toys and put them on, it was so cute! That’s all I got a picture of at dads but we did play wall ball, laugh and play games together. Cami and Rob made the turkey and it was way yummy thanks guys! On Thanksgiving Day I totally forgot my camera and I was so mad but I will tell you about our day. We started out at Layne and Laura’s house with the McFarland family shooting clay pigeons. Tom and I had a blast! Then it was off to the church to have dinner with the Baldwin family. They sure do make some great food. We do it at the church because the family is so huge! It works out well though because the little kids get to play in the nursery and the adults get to play basketball and enjoy their holiday.
