It's Finished!

Don't you love that porch?

Wonderful kitchen!

So, we had our final walk through today on our new house. It was so fun. We still don't know if we will be able to move in to it or not, since we still haven't sold our current house. We should know in a week or so, but I've been saying that for several weeks now. I'll be sure to let you all know if there is a new house back on the market that is a GREAT investment!

Thanksgiving Point

So we live close by this wonderful place called Thanksgiving Point. It has beautiful gardens, wonderful shops, a fun petting zoo, concerts, best golfing in Utah, etc. They have this fun garden for kids and in the entrance there's this fun Noah's Ark that kids come and play in. As you can see, Nathan dove right in. We had such a good time.










These are the largest man made waterfalls in North America. Pretty cool huh?











We had such a good time and this is how the experience left Nathan. Pooped!

Nathan's official 1st haircut

After....







I decided if there was ever a time to see how Nathan would look with no hair, this was the time. I think he looks better with hair, but it was getting so long and I don't know how to cut hair very well, so the buzz was easiest! Still a cutie!

Education Week at BYU

About a month ago my two good friends, Mandy and Julia, called me to say they would be in town the week of Education Week at BYU. We planned a day to attend the classes together and go to dinner afterward. It was SUCH a great experience. First and foremost, I just love these girls. Mandy lives in Idaho and Julia lives in Nevada. I sure wish we all lived closer, but when we do get together, it is such a blast. Our other friend, Lindy, joined us for dinner that night. I'm so grateful for such good friends. Thanks gals, and lets do this again soon! And thank you mom for watching my kiddos so I could enjoy this day.

5 Year Anniversary

In so many ways it seems like we've been married a lot longer than 5 years. Here are 5 things I love about Aaron:

1. He makes me laugh everyday.
2. He's a super dad and husband.
3. He's always encouraging me to try new things.
4. He still always wants to hold my hand.
5. He tries so hard to be better for me.

Happy Anniversary Sweetie. I love you and look forward to adding a 0 to that 5 someday too.

COUSINS!!!!!

This past weekend, my sister Liz came to visit with her family from Idaho. We don't see her much, but when we do it's always a blast. Another sister of mine was staying in a hotel close by and invited all of us to come swimming with the kids. The cousins had so much fun together and we love to get them together. Here are a few shots of the fun they were having in the pool.

Summer of Love Work Party

This year Aaron's work summer party was at "This is the Place Heritage Park". I haven't been up there in years. It was so fun! They had train rides, bounce houses, tye dying shirts, bead necklaces to make, yummy food, great music, and fun prizes to win. (no, we didn't win.... bummer)! The kids had an absolute blast and so did we. This work party just happened to land on our 5 year wedding anniversary and it was a lot of fun to celebrate on Ivory's dollar. :o) Good times!







This is a guy that Aaron works with and his family. The neat thing is, this is one of the missionaries that taught Aaron the gospel about 12 years ago when he was living in San Diego. I don't have enough room on this blog to tell how these two found eachother, but it would leave chills if I could. There is just no coincidences when it comes to the gospel. We are both so grateful for Elder Whitehead.
