Lava Hot Springs

At the end of July we went to Lava Hot Springs with the Griffin Family. I am super sad and feel so bad that I dont have any pictures of this way fun trip with the fam.
It was fun to have Ben and Jenn there with us this year, we had everyone there except for Tanner:(.
We had a ton of fun. We did some swimming, a croquet tournament, some minute to win it challenges, some tubing down the river(Brady not me), lots of yummy food, and a lot of good bonding time with the family.
I just love being with the Griffins! Oh and did I mention that I was the speed scrabble tournament champ?... for a time anyway. I had the privilege of possessing the "Scrabble tie" for a night. Then Jenn somehow swiped the tie from me on our last night there. Way to go Jenn!

Summer updates...first:camping

over the weekend of the 24th of July we went camping at Bridger Lake with our friends Tiffany and Jace.

First things first...flowers on the table of course:)


Tiffany is Pregnant too! She is about nine to ten weeks behind me. We are both having boys and are super excited for them to be friends and to have two little boys running around.

Can I just say that this summer Brady has found his love for fishing. Here he is eating his first fish of the season...for breakfast! Yuck! But he thoroughly enjoyed it!
This camping trip was like Brady's dream, he went fishing three different times in the space of about 24 hours.


The four of us went on a beautiful four wheeling ride for a couple of hours.

Brady and Jace took Tiffany and I fishing with them. It was my first real fishing trip. I CAUGHT A FISH! I made Brady keep it even though it was a pretty small one, he was so nice that he even ate it.


Thanks Jace and Tiffany for taking us camping with you, we had a blast!

30 Weeks!!!

Im getting bigger and bigger. Cant believe im this far along! AH! So excited though. All is well with me and baby boy:)

Big Surprise!

Yesterday for young womens, I had no idea what we were doing for our activity. It was supposed to be combined with all the yw and the young womens president was in charge of whatever we were doing. On Sunday we just told the girls to come to the church at seven, so I just figured the pres was still not sure of the activity. By yesterday afternoon I still hadn't heard but just figured she was going to wing it, as bad as that sounds. So I got to the church at 7 and they said we were going to one of the leaders houses for games so we all drove over there. Well... little did I know that I was the only one out of this loop.

They threw me a surprise Baby Shower!
I was completely surprised!
What a pleasant surprise at that too!

I feel so special, this was so nice of them! They spoiled me with lots of childrens books and some fun outfits. They also tied a cute fleece blanket for me! I just love all of them:)

Happy 2 years!!!

Brady and I celebrated our 2nd anniversary last Friday July 8th.
I can't believe we have been married for 2 whole years! Its crazy, and I love it!
Friday we went to the Bountiful temple and did sealings. Then we went and played in Downtown Salt Lake. We went to Z Tejas at the gateway and did some browsing there since Brady had only been there once in his life. We spent the night at the Peery Hotel, in the morning we went to the farmers market down the street and then went and played Frisbee golf in Murray. I won by the way. Oh and we went and had my wedding ring shined too:). It was such a fun weekend!

Somedays I still think to myself,"Holy cow!, I am married!" I love it !I just feel like we were just married yesterday. Brady has brought so much fun into my life. He makes me laugh and smile everyday. I have learned so much from him. He lives everyday to its fullest which I totally admire and love about him:) I cant think of a more fun person to be with than Brady. He is my Best Friend and I love him! Cant wait for him to be a dad cause I know he will have so much fun and be so good at it.
I am so blessed :)

23 WEEKS ALONG!!

So our little man is growing as you can see! He is just about 1lb now and about 8 inches long, how crazy. He is the size of a small doll.
Its funny to see my pregnant belly, I kind of laugh at myself every time I look in the mirror. I am feeling him move around a little more often now. Its always my favorite when I can feel him kick. However, I am sad cause Brady has not felt him yet. Every time I feel the little guy Brady runs to feel but then it has stopped. I think he is just teasing his dad:).
I am feeling good for the most part. My back has been bothering me to the point that I dont sleep much. So I bought a body pillow to help me sleep and it actually seems to be working so far.
Well there ya go...there is really a little boy in there:)

My Prego Belly

I am getting bigger! Pretty crazy! I have felt him move a few times and I just want to keep feeling him, its such a neat thing:).
cant believe I am already half way through! Hooray!
