Welcome Home Elder Lloyd

Tyler's little brother got back from his mission on Wednesday. It was great to go get him from the airport and to hear him speak on Sunday. We are very proud of you Kit and so glad to have you home.

Love to the Dads

I just wanted to do a shout out to the great dads in my life. 1st of all my dad. I feel very blessed to have him as a dad. He has always been a great example to me. Thanks for all the fun memories and great advice and help you have given me throughout my life. Thanks dad I love you.


Then there is my wonderful husband who is an awesome dad to Hayden. Hayden just loves his daddy. When dad comes home Hayden couldn't care less if mom wasn't there it's time to play, wrestle, laugh, tickle etc. Thanks for being such a great dad Ty it makes me so happy to watch you two.





















I also am blessed to have a wonderful Papa and Grandpa. I love their stories and wisdom. Since I was the first grandaughter on both sides I have a lot of great memories with them. I LOVE YOU!






















I picked such a good guy to marry that I also got a great Father in Law. Thanks for all you do for us and being a great dad to Ty. You did a great job.

















Last but not least my brother who I know is a great dad because I see how much his little adorable kids love and play with him.



So Happy Father's Day to all those great dads out there. You know who you are. Keep up the good work we truly appreciate you.

I Love Weddings!

We had a fun highlight to our weekend. One of my former roommates got married. It was a very nice ceremony and she looked so beautiful and happy. Hayden learned that weddings are a good place to pick up chicks. :) Just watch the slideshow and you will see what I mean. Congratulations Melissa and Clay, may you live happily ever after!!

(Sophie is my other former roommates little girl and she and Hayden were so cute together. They just cracked me up.)

Changing Wards is Dangerous!

This is how my child came back after going to nursery on Sunday. I was worried about him going to nursery when we moved here because there are three nurseries in our ward. Well the first Sunday he ran right in and this Sunday he did the same thing but when Tyler walked up to me this week after nursery this is what Hayden's little face looked liked.
I asked Tyler if he asked the leaders what happened and he didn't so who knows what happened. I ask Hayden and he says mean boy hit him in the eye, but who knows if that is what really happened either. I suppose I will never know. The ward besides the nursery mishap is really great. People are very friendly and inclusive (if that is a word). So we are enjoying it so far.
As you can see Hayden is no worse for the wear. :)

UNPLUGGED!!!

Okay so maybe some of you have missed me most of you probably didn't notice I was gone (especially since I'm not the best poster) but the last two weeks I have been unplugged. No internet people! So I'm trying to recover from the full inbox and lack of blogg checking but I think I'm all caught up on people.

So you might be wondering why in the world did you come unplugged, well that is the good news. We found and bought and moved into a house all like in three weeks. I know I should have posted this information but you were lucky to get the ultrasound pictures. :) Well I should revise the fact that it took us a long time to find a house but once we found the one we felt good about it went pretty fast. So it has been cleaning and unpacking and cleaning the condo (we are renting it out so we had to have it all ready for our renter). Plus our new house has all the new house projects and expenses that just sneek up on you so I don't really have any pictures. I do have some adorable photos of Hayden's help during the packing stage and so I will add those.



Yes the sticker faces were during packing. He found them and decided that it was his duty to decorate all of us. Don't we all look so cute. And I love the first two pictures of him in the box because he did that himself accidently and I had to run and get the camera while he was stuck there. Pretty funny. Why is moving so horrible for adults and such a great time for kids? I guess the same reason camping use to be so fun when you were little you didn't have to do any of the work (packing, planning, setting up the tent) just got to do the fun part. (I do still like camping but hate the work part of it.) Okay so sorry for the ramble but I hope to give some more updates later. It feels good to be back, there for a little while I had to use a phonebook to find stuff!!! he he he Bye for now.

Totally Outnumbered!

It's official come September I'm going to be totally outnumbered. Baby Boy #2 is on the way. We got to see the first pictures of our little guy on Tuesday. The ultrasound is such a cool thing. The tech told us that everything looks great and my due date is the same. I'm only putting two pictures one of his profile and one of his little foot because I love the feet pictures.

"The Happiest Place on Earth"

Well Hayden got his first go at Disneyland. He was a pretty good trooper. He enjoyed most of the rides that he was able to get on. He didn't like the Snow White Ride or Mr. Toad's Wild Ride. A little too wild for him I guess. The next day we went to California Adventure and also had fun there. He enjoyed the Micky Mouse Clubhouse Show and Pixar Parade as well as the rides he was able to go on. I also have to say that he did great with using the potty. I was pretty worried since he is potty training that either he would be asking to go every 5 seconds or that he would just forget about it all together but he did great. Thanks to Justin and Jill for inviting us and letting us stay at your house etc. Here are some pictures.

Here are some California Adventure Pictures.

I love the last picture because that is really how you feel after a day of adventure.
