Fun Projects

Since there are so many birthdays in October/November I decided to make a craft. I got the idea from Brittney Anderson, thanks brittney! I made 8 different sets and made them all different, which was the hard part! All the birthdays are: my sis-in-laws Jande, Karyn, and Camille. Sister Jilayne and my moms is early November. (mine is in october too so we have lots of birthdays!)

My mom put together a craft for us to do this last weekend. The wreaths all turned out really good, but mainly because my mom picked out good stuff:) It was fun and stressful! I've never worked with flowers, but I was pretty happy with the way it turned out.

These pictures are all out of order...sorry...I made these fall blocks a while ago.

All of us with our wreaths. My neice Madie took the picture....so it was a great one:)

My mother in law was nice enough to let me take some of her produce and make this. I grabbed the board from the shop and just started painting. It makes the outside of our house a little more inviting....distracts people, a little bit, from all the nasty cobwebs!

We took a trip to Utah for conference and had so much fun!

Our first time to temple square together! I love this temple!!!!

We had fun goofing around too. We went with ben and sonya.

HOLY COW! look at the belly! It's bigger now but I don't have any good ones recently.

For Brock's bday I made him a tractor cake....wow, it turned out but it took a whole morning to make it work...and keep the house from burning down:) lol, RIGHT JANDE?! lol

My boy LOVES playin around!

Brock had a little accident down at the river the other day. He swears the truck got stuck by accident....hmmm, looks like he had a really fun accident:)

He's been having so much fun fishing lately. He caught 2 the other night and was pretty excited!

He turned 25 this past month! Holy cow! Old fart;) He loves this OGIO bag he got from his parents.

His brother Derek raced at the Dayton Days....it was fun to watch!

This picture was a while ago. Brock has so much fun going riding with all the guys. I always tell him he has so many hobbies....and they're so dang expensive! Riding, hunting, fishing, woodworking..... oh well, keeps him happy:)

Correction!

I don't know why I wrote that our little guy was 8oz .....he was actually 13oz. I was typing fast. The normal for how far along I am is 10oz. so he's just a little bit big for his age:)

HALF WAY DONE!!!!

I had my 5 Month appt this week and I'm feeling pretty big. Our baby is 8oz which is a little above the normal weight and I'm on the upper end of the scale for weight gain! I knew it! These last 2 weeks I wake up and I swear I'm 5lbs heavier! haha. I know, a lot of you are thinking "you have a long ways to go" and I know I do....but wow!

The appt went good and we found out what we're having....

....A LITTLE BROCK!!!!

Prego Pics

We floated the Columbia River with Jason and Karyne a few weeks ago from Ringold to Green Island. It was a short float but it was so hot outside so it was perfect. I'm just starting to show here.

Like always, I got the pictures out of order.... I am almost 17 weeks in this picture. I swear, these pictures don't do justice to the actual size. I look at these and think wow I'm not that big....but I swear in real life it's bigger:)
I think my butt is growing just as much as my tummy! GROSS!

(below) This picture is around 13 weeks. Growing fast!

Hikin' in the Caves

We went to some caves out past Yakima a couple weekends ago with my family. It was a little ways up there, but we had a blast. The caves were perfect; the kids had fun but stayed on the path and Brock had fun finding new paths and new areas to explore. It was so cute/scary watching him; he was like a little boy out exploring. We had so much fun and decided we need to do things like this more often!!!

(Above) This was kind of at the opening of the caves so there was some light. Deep in the caves you had to have a flash light to see anything! The girls had headlights.

(We miss you Chad and Jande!!!)
