May 2011 Update Part 2

It was also the Mother/Daughter Activity for Activity days this month, where we did a "T" Party and had lots of fun. We had little chicken salad sandwiches, fruit, veggies, chips and dip and lemonade. We also talked about Temples and Testimonies. We had visited the temple with the girls and they all had a chance to write down their testimonies and those were handed out to their moms at the activity. Those girls are so cute!

It was Bryce’s 16^th birthday and Owens first official hair cut this month as well. As you can tell, Olivea need a cut too.

After... She did such a good job.

Owen on the other hand... DID NOT Like it one bit.

Happy HANDSOME boy after it was all done.

 

 Also, we found out that someone bought our townhouse so we need to move. We have been looking for several weeks and finally found the perfect home, not too far from our current place too. We love it.

February 2011 Update

My mom's birthday was this month and we celebrated by going out for pizza and then walked around the Provo Beach Resort. Livy had fun playing in the play-place and Owen was content in his car seat. Also, Owen turned 6 Months. Guess it was kind of a low key month but with two babies under 2 nothing is ever "low-key". :)

Owen tried baby cereal, Oatmeal, for the first time. 

He didn’t like it.. um.. AT ALL! 

Little did we know, this was the start of an extremely difficult eater. Since then he only likes milk, cereal, and chicken nuggets. Oh son, what am I going to do with you?!?

 Guess its time to buy boy bibs. We only have girls colors I guess.

 Insert.... 

And Eject...!

Playing Catch up Once Again...

Lets start with Owen's Blessing:

We had to do Owen’s blessing on Oct. 10^th at our home and I will explain why. My grandparents were leaving for Hawaii on the 17^th, Garron had to work and his schedule was so crazy that he flew in that Sunday morning and had to leave the next day and wouldn’t be back till the next Sunday evening and then my grandparents left the next day. So we originally were going to have it at the church building but for some reason Michael and Amy booked flights for Saturday night and had to drive back Sunday night to get to work on Monday. They booked them before we knew we could change the date. Something happened with Garrons schedule where we were going to do it the next week but by that time Michael and Amy had already bought flights.

Confused yet??? Me too!!!

                We had a ton of people come to support us and for that I am truly grateful. Those that had to drive back to Vegas didn’t stay long after the actual blessing and food but I am glad they were able to make it.

Owen looked so handsome and Garron did a wonderful job blessing him. We had a baked potato bar with all the toppings. Plus my mom made her amazing chili and also had cornbread for those that didn’t want a potato. I made Texas Sheet Cake for dessert and I think it is safe to say that we were all very full.

It was a wonderful day and I am grateful for my husband and that he holds the priesthood to be able to bless our children and bless our home like I grew up thinking my hubby would. I love you Garron!

I had all the men of Owen’s immediate family go outside and take pictures

 

               I love that I have those pics but the grass was wet and we ended up having everyone dry off their shoes with a towel before coming back in.
