Happy Birthday & Happy Easter


I am still trying to believe that i have a one year old. Everyone tells you it goes so fast, but it is true. My little girl is 1 and walking, and she is still pretty little. Her stats for her 1 yrs old are: 18.4 lbs and 28 in. She is going to have her moms height but that is all good, we love her just how she is. She loved her birthday it was full of fun. We had conference and she loves to listen to the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, and we had an Easter egg hunt, and yummy food, and colored eggs (she napped during that it was easier), and lots of time with the family. I wasn't sure what she would do with the cake, but she loved it. Every time she grabbed it she would give me her hand and want me to wipe it clean. I never got it on camera, but when i asked her how old she was she would hold up one little finger, and then when we lit the candles she did this funny blowing thing, it was pretty cute. Ems clapped all day for herself and loved all the attention she was getting.



Grandpa filled some of the eggs and we love when he does that, so I made sure Emree found one of his. She loves these kids. It is so fun to watch her and Jospeh play together, they have their own little language and just follow each other around. The kids had a great time.


When we got back home on Monday we had another party with Trav's family. I decided to do something a little different. So we went to the REX and played in the Jump place. The kids loved it and so did us moms, we all were worn out and red in the face from playing so hard. The boys all ate pizza while we played. It was a great time. Ems just loves to jump and watch all the kids run around. She had a wonderful birthday and was spoiled by everyone.
These are just some random pictures of the past couple weeks that i love. What a girl she is so full of life and just loves new things and always smiling. She loves her babies and if she doesn't have it in the tub with her she is feeding it a bottle or patting it. Loves the dishwasher and is very helpful around the house. And lately she loves to have glasses or things on her head. Trav's mom has a crown that she loves to put on and walk around it is pretty classic. Anyways, enough about Emree, as you can tell we love her. Things are good with Trav and I we are just doing the usual he is getting excited for work to pick up and I am getting excited for warm weather. We are just so grateful for one another and all of our blessings that everyday brings.

Hey Hailee, I'm throwing a shower for Coley at the end of August. I just need to get your mailing address so I can get you an invitation. You can write back on my blog or send Coley an email with it. Your little girl is absolutely adorable, by the way! She looks just like you. :)

Thank you Hailee! I'll get an invitation out to ya today! :)

Aubrey said...

Hey Hailee, Coley's shower is going to be on the 28th of this month. You should be getting an invitation any day now. If you're plannin' on coming, is there any way you could email me a baby picture of yourself? It's sounds like a funny request, but it'll make sense when you get to the shower. Thanks! :)

Celebrating our 1 year anniversary!!

I couldn't believe that we have really been married one year already. Trav and I decided to save some money and just do something close to home, and save and do a trip or whatever later. I just waited to see what he would plan and he was hoping i would do it of course. So we both went to work on Monday, July 21st, and when i got home he came in from the farm and said get ready we are going to eat. It was so fun we went up to Island Park (which is the same distance as going to Idaho Falls but much prettier) and ate dinner at the Trout Hunter. It was so good, we recommed it. Then Trav took me on a tour to see some of the cabins he helped wire this winter, which was good to finally see where all those late nights were spent. Then we took the Mesa Falls way home. What a beautiful night. The falls were so green and beautiful and the sunset was amazing over the farm fields and mountains. It was so nice to just spend some quality time together and not focusing on work or other stresses. The other pictures are of the day before. My mom bless her heart saved the top of our wedding cake and brought it up to us. So we popped open a little bubbly and enjoyed some of that yummy cake that we only got one bite of on our wedding day. It was so fun, and Trav was sick after, either because he ate so much or because it was a year old.
What a wonderful 1st year it has been. I love Trav so much more each day and look forward to celebrate many more years. And all those people that told us the 1st year was the hardest well i hope you are right, because if that is true then i look forward to the rest, because i loved every minute we have had together. Travis is so good to me, and works so hard at everything he does. Marriage has created in me a larger appreciation and understanding for our Heavenly Fathers love for us, because of the plan that he has created for us to be together forever. I wouldn't have it any other way!!!!
