Fun in Ogden with Andrea and Max

On Sunday we drove to Ogden and spend the day at Papa Dave's House. Ok so he is not my Papa Dave he is my brother-in-law Shane's dad. Him and his wife Kristen were kind enough to let us be at their house all day to hang out with Craigs sister Andrea and her son Max. We had such a fun time. It snowed about a foot on Sunday and we took full advantage of the snow. Max had built two forts on the deck for a snowball fight. It was me and Andrea vs. Max and Craig and it was so much fun(my arm hurt for about three days after :)). We then went sledding which was awesome. If there is one thing I love it is sledding and I made sure to do a lot of it. Some of you may be thinking...Your pregnant you shouldn't be sledding...and to that I say fooey. We had an awesome time making snow angels and part of a snow man and below are pictures.

It was so funny when Dave brought in a box of Snowboots from his garage it was filled with all of these Walnuts. Apparently a squirrel was saving up for winter because about 4 pairs of boots were packed full of walnuts.

Andrea and Max Sledding


Craig and Max hold the record for the longest double person sledding track. Here is their victory picture after an awesome run.
After sledding we went back to Daves and played Ticket to Ride which our nephew Max did awesome on. He is 8 and caught on faster than Craig and I did when we first played. We also watched a movie and relaxed. Andreas mother in law made us a delicious Sunday dinner and then we headed home.
Here are some pictures from Daves house. Craig and I really like this house and would one day love to have one like it. It is set up on a hill with trees all around, a hot tub and a cabin seperate from the house. It was a wonderful day.

Fun in Logan w/ Kathy and Erik

Craig and I were lucky enough to be able to have a few days off in a row in which we went down to Utah to see our sisters. We left on Friday and spent Friday night and Saturday with my sister Kathy and her family and had so much fun. It snowed a little less than a foot while we were there which didn't really agree with us having older tires on our car which made driving a little scary and exciting. I had such a fun time getting to know my new little niece Eva. It is amazing how much she looks like her mom and older sister Violet. I literally spent most of the day either holding her or making funny faces and coming up with weird songs to entertain her. She is so sweet and I absolutely love her little cheeks. Unfortunately I only got one picture when I was at Kathys because we were having so much fun but it is a good one. Here is Kade playing with Eva while I snatched the picture.


On Saturday we went through a session at the Logan temple which was awesome. We were married and sealed there for time and all eternity exactly 4 years ago but have never been there for a session and it was very nice.


Thanks for letting us crash your house. We had such a fun time.

Slide show from Salt Lake Trip in Sept

Ok, so Craig and I got sick of the music playing everytime we opened our blog and I'm sure there are some of you who did too, so we are reposting the pictures without the music.

It's A Girl

Yes we are having a baby girl. It was amazing to see her move around when we got our ultrasound on Thursday. She brought tears to our eyes :). The lady doing the ultrasound said everything looks perfect on her,she is about 10 oz and 7-10 inches long. There are some pictures of her below. I have been feeling really good lately and finally feel like myself again after the last few months feeling like a zombie. I can't believe I am 1/2 way through my pregnancy being 20 weeks and 4 days. Time goes by fast. Enjoy the pics!!

Sorry for the bend picture this is her sweet profile shot.

This is a picture of her spine which I love..it is amazing how developed she is since our last picture looked like a bean.

Here is another profile shot.



This is the morning of our appointment we were so excited to find out the gender.


I can tell this little girl with be a daddy's girl.

And a momma's girl too :)



Craig has wanted to park here forever and finally he has an excuse....well at least when I am with him he does.



This is my 20 week belly shot.

BOY OR GIRL????

It is time to start guessing. We will find out on NOVEMBER 19TH if we are having a Boy or Girl and we thought we would give you some time to think it over and comment what you think. The time is going by so fast I can't believe we will find out in 3 1/2 weeks. Whoo hoo.

Pumpkin Carving Fun

Every Sunday we try to get together as friends and do something fun but Sunday appropriate. Lately we have been having Family Home Evening together as friends but on Sunday night. Craig and I look forward to every Sunday and the fun times we have getting together. Yesterday we carved pumpkins and it was a good time. Brett and Robin, Frankie Kelly and Jake, and Craig and I had a wonderful time. Below is a slide show of our fun and crazy pumpkins.

Our Eggo is Preggo!!!

Yep Were Expecting!!

We have know for a little over a month and we have tried to keep it secret but that didn't really work. I wanted to wait until about now but Craig couldn't wait so we told our close friends and family. We are very excited. I was amazing to hear the baby's heart beat and it was around 7 weeks and we were so excited to see our little baby. I am currently about 9 1/2 weeks along. Which puts my due date on April 8th.We found out we were pregnant when in Nevada for our nephews baptism. This is at our Dr.s office after our first visit. In case any of you are wondering I have been extremely tired and have had some nauseous mornings but all in all feeling good. Craig has been super supportive and is very excited for our little sweet baby. We are excited to meet you baby Shannon.
