Fun Adventure

We decided to re-paint our bedroom furniture black and it turned out pretty good. We had a little trouble with having the paint stay on because it ended up not being real wood. But I'm glad we did it! It makes our room so much better looking!

Andrew is 5 almost 6 months old now. He had his first set of shots last week and he sure did not like them. It was so hard to see my little boy get shots especially since I hate them! He was a good boy though. He cried for a little and then just had the suck ups for like a hour after and then slept for a while!
This last weekend we went to Manti for my family reunion and for my little brother's farewell. He is going to Munich, Austria Germany. He asked all his brother's and sister's to sing a song in church so we sang "How great thou art" and it sounded really good! I pretty much cried through the whole song. Evan's talk was amazing! The spirit was so strong and I don't think there was a dry eye in the room. Evan leaves next Wednesday and I can't believe how fast time fly's! What is really crazy to think is when he gets back in two years we will have another baby and Andrew will be almost 3. We will all miss Evan so much! For the reunion most of the family went and did a session at the Manti temple. That is such a beautiful temple! We also did some four wheeling and watched movies and hung out! It was a great and fun time to be with everyone!

We went to the Bee's game on the 24th of July. It was us and Chad's dad and Step mom Cindy. The fireworks were amazing! We went onto the baseball field and had them right over us!

Andrew at 4 months!

We bought Andrew a Bumbo chair and he loved it for the first couple of weeks, but now he pushes his feet to lift his bum out of it. I went to a yard sale and found the bouncy chair for $5.00. I was so excited! That is the best thing in the world! He absolutely loves it. He will be in that thing for at least an hour and I am able to get things done! For those of you who have kids this age, I would suggest you buy one!

Andrew's first 4th of July!

This is the other half of 4th of July. We went swimming at Raging Waters. It was mostly cloudy and I didn't put any sunblock on which was not smart of me to do! I just got too busy. The water was too cold for Andrew so Chad and I got a tube and went down the lazy river. I sat in the tube and had Andrew on my lap and he fell asleep. It was so cute. That is his first time wearing that top and its too small on him. It's a size 3-6 month. He is a big boy!









After swimming we went home and back out to see the fireworks in Sandy. It was a lot of fun to be able to relax and talk and play. Andrew looks scared in this picture and I don't know why. It was a very full day but a great day!

Good Things Utah!

For the 4th of July and my sister Kerryann's birthday we went to be in the audience of Good Things Utah! It was a good thing we went because there weren't very many people there at all. We just cheered very loud! My sister bought the crowns for a dollar at target for her girls but thought it would be fun for us to wear them there. The Good thing Utah girls loved them! It was very different seeing the actual set and how they work everything. It's a lot smaller than I thought it was. Towards the end we got these cute bags full of scrapbooking things to decorate the bag with. Now when i watch the show at home it's very different just because I know how they move things around to do everything. It was a blast!

I need thoughts for the baby contest!

I am putting Andrew in a baby contest this Thursday at 10:00 A.M. I just thought it would be so fun to do and see what happens! I don't know what the prizes are but I do know that if he wins out of all the babies then he and I will be on a float in the American Fork parade this weekend. That's just what I have heard. I need some advice on which outfit to put him in. The plaid shorts is dark brown with baby blue and yellow. Please help me decide! Those of you who really know me knows how indecisive I am. Thanks!
