Summer Fun

Lovin some Bear Lake boatin, Ben and I tore it up on the tubes this summer, since i couldn't water ski. As soon as the boat would stop Ben would yell more, more

High School buddies, we are all due one week apart, I am first Oct 9 then Kaycee and then AndraBen's 2nd Birthday, his truck cake that started to sink by the time we ate it, but it was still pretty cute and Ben thought it was great.
We headed up to Park City for a couple of days. It was a great little get-a-way. We even got to take Ben on the Alpine slide
We went to the Preston Rodeo, Ben's favorite part was riding this car. When it stopped he laid on the grass and bawled, our first temper tantrum! Pretty funny
Watching the fireworks from the Petersen's house, best spot in Logan. Ben loved watching them
Celebrating the 4th of July with all the Thompson grandkids

Much needed update! CHANGES!

Well here is the reason I have been a blog slacker, WE MOVED! It all happened pretty quick. We put our house up on the MLS wednesday night and had a full price offer Friday. I was sad to leave our old house because we literally put our heart and soul into fixing it up but Danny and I had been looking at this house for months before we even thought about selling our house. Luckily the people had to sell it so here we are. The best part is the kids wont have to share a bedroom and all we've had to do it paint. Also I've got lots of yard work so don't look to closely - that is still to come.
Danny stole my awesome office. In the mist of moving Danny had a company contact him and wanted him to come work for them. It is based out of Sweden with US offices in Oregon so he works from home when he is home - he travels A LOT! This should be fun when baby number 2 arrives, well see how I manage. Anyways we figured while we were making changes we would just keep going.

Front entry looking into the living room.
Ben's room, the stripes took me quite some time but I think they turned out cute and something fun and different for a kids bedroom. I was able to reuse the roman shade I made for his old room - it was a swear word project, I had to make it bigger and roman shades on a window that size, well they shouldn't be done, that's all I'll say about that.
Our bedroom, not a great picture but we love having an attached bathroom and a big closet.
One of the best parts of the new house is the amazing view in our back yard. When we showed my dad the house all he had to say was you can see the "A" I'm sold!
Ben moved into a big boy bed this month. He has done great, our only problem is we can't get him to go to bed at night because he says up looking at books.
Speaking of changes, I sure I didn't look like that a year ago! This was actually on the 4th so I'm sure I'm bigger now. As my nephew Drew says to me each time he sees me "getting bigger"

Easter Weekend

I love this picture! Don't we live in a beautiful place
Baby Animal Day- I thought Ben would love the animals the way he attacks Sammy all day but he was a little bit nervous of all the animals.
The cute cousins- Halle was here too but she didn't want to get in a picture until she got a balloon animal.
Happy Easter, me forcing them to get in a picture after church, you can see how happy they were with me
My parents brought up Grandma Kenya, she is literally on her last leg. She can't really walk anymore and will probably pass away this week. It's hard to imagine her gone. We've had her for 12 years.
Ben loved the egg hunt

My awesome easter eggs I made, I brew out the yokes, I serious pain, (reminded me of child birth) and then I used a silk ties to dye them

NO Aprils Fool's Joke!

Ben's going to be a Big Brother! It was quite a surprise for us but we're really excited, especially for the 2nd trimester (which starts in a week) so that I can start feeling better! I am due on my birthday, October, 10th. It's already been an interesting pregnancy so far so were hopping for less stress and less sickness in April!

Winter Overload

We got another new niece in February- Allyson Kathleen Egan! We love her, Ben thinks she is pretty cool, the best part about her is she lives about a mile away so we get to see her all the time but I still get to sleep through the night!
Our family keeps growing! We got 2 new nieces on my side and now we are getting 2 new nephews on Danny's side! Lots of fun with cousins
Drake & Ben, need I say more, cutest little buddies!
Heading over to the park for a little sledding


So much snow, this is why we still have a mound of snow in the front yard!
Family ski night, we were planning on taking turns with Ben in the lodge but once he figured out he could be out on the slopes there was no going back in
Will and Drew tore up the slopes, very brave and good little skiiers
