It's a boy!

Weston and I found out that we are soon going to be blessed with a new addition to our home. We are going to be having a baby boy in January. It is so exciting/the scariest thing that we have ever done!

Now we are just looking forward to preparing for the new arrival and all the joy that comes with it!

Bringing home the bacon!


I am super thrilled right now and I have to share the good news with everyone! Weston just got his first official job! He is growing up so fast. He was one of the 14 individuals to be hired around the nation as a team leader at Discover Card. We still aren't quite sure what he will be doing but he is supposed to be able to move into an executive position eventually. He starts in July and gets to go to Chicago for 3 weeks of training, which means that I get to go on vacation :) I am so super proud of him and he is relieved after weeks of worry, stress and searching!

Happy Easter 2010

We went down to the good old farm for Easter. Here is my dad and his mini me loading hayWe colored a bunch of eggs with the boys for Easter. We will just say it was artistic. Wes got a little carried away with his fun

Hayden was teaching Weston how to be a real cowboy by roping him and then holding him hostage
Hayden also was so kind to show Weston his wrestling moves

The most fun we've had in a week

Weston and I were able to go to the Jazz game when they played the Thunder. We won in overtime by 1. And we got to see it all from the 7th row!
Over the last couple of weeks we have been really lucky to do some really fun things. Me and Megan were able to hit up the slopes right after it had pounded for 2 days. It was one of the best snow days I have ever had. We were on our way up to Brighton but saw that Solitude was having a $39 lift deal. It was all powder and blue skies until we got tired and left in the afternoon
Weston, Mark, Vicki, and I were lucky enough to go to the Michael Buble concert. He was AWESOME. Not only did we get to see Michael but 5 days later we had the opportunity to see MUSE. They were pretty much the most incredible band ever!

We had to walk 4 blocks in the freezing rain. We made the most of it but we all got splashed by a fast moving car while we stood on the corner waiting to cross the street

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY

I can't believe that it has already been a year for Weston and I as a married couple. They say the first year is always the hardest; so if it only gets better from here I am pretty excited for eternity because it has already been a dream. We had a great evening together as I sent Weston on a small scavenger hunt for the day and he gave me the most BEAUTIFUL flowers ever. Loving Weston has been the greatest thing that has ever happened to me and I thank the lord everyday that we have been sealed together for all time and eternity. I think our relationship is as close to perfect as possible. I keep him on his toes and he puts up with me.

I can't wait to see what challenges and stories the next year brings!
