On June 2nd we had a joint Baptism with my sister Katie's sweet little girl Taelyn and Carter. It was a beautiful blessing that almost everybody from both sides of the family were able to attend. We blessed them in Katie's ward in Provo and then went to a park that was close by for lunch and visiting with the family. It was sooo nice that so many were able to come and celebrate with us!! We had an awesome time and are grateful for the love and support that is always shown. Such a fun special day!

Pine Valley

PINE VALLEY FUN

Hiking the trails!

We had a fun filled day with Eric's parents up in Pine Valley! We had nothing to do and decided it was a perfect day to have a picnic! So we drove up that evening and ate Fried Chicken and went on a fun little hike! It was nice to get away from the really hot weather for a little bit! It was great other than the headache I got coming down the mountain, that wasn't the most fun thing!!

4th of July

This was our first 4th of July back in St. George and we had a great time hanging out with Eric's Parents! We started the night off with dinner and then fireworks in front of the house. Then went to watch the city fireworks up on the "D" hill. The kids loved it and we had such a fun time!!

Catch up Time

So the next few posts are going to be major major catch up time!!

My Happy Boy!

These are the many smiles of my happy little boy! Kinley needed to join in on the fun as well!! Carter is 2 months old and he is Cooing and Smiling like crazy! He is starting to follow things with his eyes and reach for things (mommy's hair, your hands, face, etc.) At his 2 month check he was 12.1 pounds(64%) and 24 1/4 inches long (90%). He is very ticklish and we get good giggles out of him. He is a very content baby and sleeps through the night well for mom!! Kinley absolutely adores her baby brother and continues to always want to "pet" him. We are having so much fun with these guys!

Erics Graduation!!!

Eric and I after his hooding ceremony. They did the hooding ceremony the day before graduation to announce the scholarships and awards and have people from their program speak. Eric got the Private Practice Student Scholarship Award!!

All the boys!

All the girls!! I'm going to miss these guys!!

Graduation was in the pouring rain, so we decided to park the car and watch from there so we wouldn't get wet!!

Eric getting his Diploma.

Look at that Handsome Graduate :)

Erics parents and Nate and Angie were able to make it up for the occasion. It was so nice having them there to celebrate with us!

Our family!
