My Amazing Trip to New York

What would I do without my girlfriends? I love that we still do things, and keep in touch. Thanks Natalie, for letting us stay at Eric's company apartment. It really was an amazing trip. The only bad thing that happened, was that I lost my camera. Fortunately, my friends are awesome, and they've already sent me cd's of all their pictures (thanks everyone!).

One of my favorite parts of the entire trip, was when we just arrived, and met-up with all the girls. It was so good to see everyone again, and I loved how excited everyone was to see each other. I also loved the little moments, like hanging-out in the apartment, or waiting in some line. I even loved walking around until my feet hurt. I can't believe no one complained. Seriously, we were running on little-to no sleep at all, and hungry a lot of the time, but we all had a blast;.

The sheer size of New York is incredible. The city is huge, and 4 days was not enough time. We did create a lot of fun memories. The subways were grose, but we managed to find our way around, thanks to Aubrey Howell. I'll never forget that pizza place, or Nat's kiss to the pizza guy, John. I laughed until I cried. Dylan's candy store was so fun, and I loved how excited we all were. It was like we were little kids again. Was it Stef who loaded up on gummi bears?

Thanks girls, for all the good times!

July Update

So much has happened lately, it's hard to know where to start. Wes, Kylee, and I spoke in sacrament meeting today. Kylee wanted to speak, so we let her bear her testimony. When we were getting ready for church, I asked Kylee what she was going to say, and she said,"you'll just have to wait and see." I did have to help her a little when she first started, but then I sat down, and she finished. It was so cute, and more people commented on her talk than mine or Wes'.

Yesterday, I floated to the NICU, and I got to hold the cutest little babies! I'm so baby hungry. I can't wait until Wes and I have more children. I hope it's soon. Wes and I are both taking fertility drugs, so I hope they work. We also have Wes' boat for sale just in case we have to pay for invitro! Our neighbors just did it, and they said it costs about $20,000.

I also recently got back from my trip to New York. I went with my best friends from high school and college. It was a girls only trip. We had so much fun. Unfortunately, I lost my camera in New York so I don't have any pictures to post yet. My girlfriends are going to send me a cd of their's, so I'll post some soon.

Our New Home

Some people have been asking to see a few pictures of our new home. We're not totally settled in yet, but we're getting there. Wes has been working on finishing the backyard, but just the other night, we changed our minds on the layout, and we're starting over! Yes, we're even removing the block-wall that we added, and the RV pad. Wes saw a neighbor's RV entrance on the side yard, with landscaping to kind-of hide the entrance. I don't know if that makes sense, but the layout seems much better, and it will leave us a lot more room in our backyard since the RV pad will no longer be taking-up a large portion of it. For those of you who have seen our backyard, you understand.

Our day at the lake

We went to Quail Lake today. It was fun to take the boat out, and the weather was beautiful. It was a perfect day on the water (too bad so many other people though so too). We went with our neighbors. The kids were a little grouchy, but they had fun. Wes had to force Kylee on the surf-board because she changed her mind at the last minute, and wouldn't go. You can tell from her face that she really likes it though. We love it here in St. George where we are so close to a couple lakes. Wes is really excited for Lake Powell too. Our last trip to Powell was a little chilly, so hopefully the one in July will be a little warmer.

My sweet Wesley

I guess to start this blog out right, I need to write about my wonderful husband. Thank you Wes, for being such a great father and husband. I really do appreciate all that you do. Since I have been working full-time again, he has taken care of Kylee so well. He totally gets Kylee up and ready for day-care, and picks her up. He basically is super dad! Tonight, when I came home from work, he was in the backyard digging the area for Kylee's sandbox. What a good hubby! He works so hard at his job, and at home, that I just thought he needed a little pat on the back. I love you honey! Happy Father's day.

Here we go!

I thought I would try and keep-up with my friends, and start a blog. I love reading about what's going on in eveyone's lives through their blogs, so I'll give it a try. Hopefully, I will be able to figure this all out.
