My Growing Belly

Mitch came home from work yesterday and told me that my belly looked cute and he wanted to take a picture of it. I don't know, but I don't think that it is very cute yet. I think that I totally look frumpy and fat, I have to keep telling myself, it's ok it's just a phase. Anyway so I am 18 weeks, almost 19, and my belly is starting to bulge. I figured that I would post the pics since so many of you have been asking me if I am showing yet. So here you go! One more thing; some days it is bigger than others, this happened to be one of the bigger days.

Somewhere in Arizona

In the middle of Arizona, Mitch and I saw the craziest thing. Ok maybe not the craziest but we just had to pull over to see what it was. There were huge boulders every where, and it turns out that people make houses and live in these boulders, or at least use them to make a house. It was pretty dang cool. I guess the story is that some lady's car broke down there a while ago, and apparently she had no way of getting help. So she decided to use the boulders for shelter, until help came. Then I guess others decided to do the same. Don't ask me if people still live there or why others decided to join the original lady. All I know is that it was amazing to see the boulder homes.

Yes, we are selling our house

Yes, we are selling our house. We don't have any more projects so Mitch is bored and wants to move on to another adventure. We listed our the house with a residential broker and he and Mitch are trying some unique things to get it sold. Mitch even had his brother, Jeff, make us a website to get it sold. Check it out- www.3578hyrum.com
We will be sad to move out of our little friendly neighborhood where we have met the best people. We will miss everyone...if our house sells. Wish us luck.

4th of July

For the 4th we didn't really do anything too exciting. Mitch and I decided that we needed to finish our yard so it will look good for our open house next weekend. It took us all day but we got it done. And we still had time to go to the world famous Idaho Falls Fireworks show. See pictures below. Enjoy!


Finally Finished


It looks pretty good but I am probably just bias.




Happy Independence Day

My Favorite place

Mitch and I finally got to go to Lake Powell, thanks to the Ahlstrom's. They would always invite us but we could never go because of school or work, but this year it finally worked out. We had a blast. Thank you so much, you guys are the best. Unfortunately I wasn't very good at taking pics, but I did get a few. The weather was gorgeous, and water was perfect, the food was amazing, and the company was fantastic. It was so nice to just lay out in the sun and relax. We are so going back next year, if the Ahlstrom's let us of course.


Me attempting to surf, I'm not very good

Beautiful Lake Powell, how could you not like this place?

My handsome hubby, isn't he just so cute?

Like I said before I was a slacker with the camera. These pics are all from the first day so by the end of the week Mitch got better at surfing while I didn't. He also tubed, air-chaired, and wake boarded. I wish I would have taken more pictures!

Oh and here are some pictures that I took the day after we got back from our trip. Don't you all want to come live in Idaho where it's the end of June and it still snows. It's great, I love it, I hope you all know that I am being very sarcastic.

We're Pregnant

We had our first doctor's appointment today and we got the good news; Our baby is very good looking despite the fact that it is only 2.5mm long. We are 5 weeks along and we are due on December 26th. I got so excited that I bought this little girl outfit (because I think it will be a girl). She'll take after her mom.

Jeff the Graduate

This last weekend we went to Jeff's Graduation in Provo. We stayed at the Maxfield's cabin in Midway with the whole family accept Corbin and Ali and Brian; we had a blast but we really missed them. Jeff, you will be the best Boring Auditor that Price Waterhouse Coopers has ever had; Congrats little brother.

A Vacation, Finally!

All work and no play makes for an unhappy couple. For Kristin's spring break we decided to go to Las Vegas and spend some time with her parents. We rolled into town on Friday evening and checked into our hotel on the Strip. We went to dinner at Magiano's, very delicious. Then we walked around the Strip and enjoyed our time together. We went to all the shops and looked at all of the expensive jewelry and clothing and Ferarri's. We then went to Kristin's grandparents and stayed there for the rest of our trip. We had a great time being with family and playing with Abby our neice and Caden our nephew. On Monday we drove to LA to watch Kristin's cousin, Chelsea Hightower, perform on Dancing with the Stars with her Partner, Ty Murray, Champion Bull Rider. We had a great time. Enjoy the pictures below.


We ate at Magiano's and it was so delicious!
