St. George...


Oh don't we love Beaver and the ginormous rocking chair?!


We went to St. George at the end of May for my cousin's wedding. It was a lot of fun to have a weekend away and it was even better to get to see all of my extended family. I had not seen a lot of my cousins, aunts and uncles in almost 7 years...ridiculous! They live in California, and apparently things just haven't worked out for us to see them. It was great to see everyone and it was fabulous that they got to meet Josh, Bridger and Kenna. One funny thing with all the fam was that they were all floored by how much Bridger looks just like my dad. At my cousin's reception, there were a lot of old family friends of my grandparents and they instantly knew who Bridger's grandpa was by his looks! Anyway, we had a great time visiting with everyone and the wedding was very nice!
While down in St. George, Josh, my dad, JD and Whitney camped in Sand Hollow. Bridger wanted to camp with them, but it's quite hot there, so we decided that maybe in a year or two he would do better with it. We were able to go up and have dinner with everyone one evening, which was fun!
Unfortunately I don't have any wedding pictures with any of my cousins, etc...I forgot my camera at the wedding stuff...hopefully I can get some pics from my family who took pictures!

Bridger's Brownies...

Bridger has been wanting to make brownies for a few days now, so I finally decided to help him make brownies today. He was super excited to make them, so we got a chair all ready for him, and started making them. I decided I wanted to get a picture of him stirring the brownies, because he looked so cute...and this is what I came back to after getting my camera...

Bet you don't want to eat any of Bridger's brownies!!! LOL

Bridger's Happenings...

Checking out a bug...



Just some random pics of my cute boy!


We had an "end of year" swim party for Bridger's preschool group at a local aquatic center. Bridger really enjoyed seeing all of his friends and I enjoyed visiting with all the mommies as well! It worked out nicely, because Tina (my neighbor in EM) just had a baby, so she stayed out of the water and took care of her baby and Kenna, while I was in the water with Bridger and Julia. Bridger and Julia were both scared and crying at first, but it didn't take them too long to warm up to it and when it was time to go, Bridger was totally sad! I didn't get any pictures at the pool, so took a couple of pictures of Bridger afterward! He was tired after, so was just chilling, eating grapes, watching a show and playing with cars...that little multi-tasker!

This cute boy is getting so big! I can't believe he is already 3 1/2...he is such a sweet and fun little boy!!


We had ice cream sandwiches and Bridger had a popcicle. He took a few licks, then decided he wanted to save it, so we put it in the freezer...he wanted me to take a picture of it!

Kenna's Happenings...



She's rolling over to look at me...notice the ET neck?!

These are just some random pictures I took of our little cutie!



We recently started feeding Kenna baby oatmeal. The doctor had suggested it at her 4 month appointment, just since she is a bit smaller and also to maybe help her reflux. I waited until we moved to start her on it, and she has done quite well! She does spit a lot of it out, but that is mostly because she smiles between each bite and when she smiles, she moves her tongue forward.
Look at her eyeing that ice cream sandwich!!


Josh got an ice cream sandwich for himself and I and a popcicle for Bridger. Kenna kept watching us eat our treat, so I decided to let her have a little lick to see what she would do. She LOVED it!!! She probably would have eaten the entire thing if we let her! I didn't want to let her have too much, I am usually a stickler about letting her have food items before she's "supposed". When we would pull the sandwich away, she would follow it around with her eyes and try grabbing it. She made a huge mess, but it was hilarious! We couldn't stop laughing...I think she may have a sweet tooth already!!!

The Move!!!


This one's for you Ashley...lol!!!

Julia and Bridger...also, see that ramp...well, Bridger loaded his bike into the trailer and then hauled down the ramp...crazy boy!!!


Josh, JD, and Bridger getting ready to return the U-Haul...the U-Haul was totally worth it and very reasonably priced!!

Oh my word, can I just say that moving is crazy and busy and exciting and sad all at once! We survived the move, but are glad it's over! We had a lot of help with the move from family and friends, so thank you everyone! Josh's brother was in town from California and so kindly volunteered to help us move! Josh and Adam got a lot done during the day, which was so wonderful! We are excited to be in our new house but are trying to get it thoroughly cleaned and make it "ours". The neighborhood is very nice, which is fabulous, but I do still miss all my friends in EM...good thing they aren't too far away! Our first Sunday here, Bridger cried before church because he didn't want to go to a new ward. He told me he wanted to see "Julia and AJ, and Sawyer and Hayden and Ashlynn and Lexi and all my friends." And he said he really liked Sister Fannen and Sister Hansen (his old primary teachers) and that he didn't want new ones. He did well in church though, they said he was really good, so that made me happy!!! In a week or two, we are hoping to be much more settled in and would love visitors, so if you ever want to visit, let me know!!
