Happy Birthday Jake and Bridget!


We've had an exciting past few weeks! Jake turned 26, Bridget turned 1, and.....Jake got hired as a full-time seminary teacher! He's worked so hard the past year and a half and I'm so proud of him! Good job Jake! We don't know where we are moving to yet but we'll be sure and let you all know!

Did I mention I'm part Guatemalan? I wish! This
is the great family that my friend Lisa Pack Lindquist
and I stayed with when we went to Guatemala 3 years ago
with our friend Rico. They are here for Rico's graduation and
they came over for a visit. It was so fun!


Bridget and her cute cousin Eden
She's terrified of grass! So was I when I was her age

Eating her birthday cake and loving it



So I made their birthday cakes, but I really should have
had my sister make them because look at how amazing
her cakes are! She make such pretty cakes!

  1. You have been so good at blogging! All those cakes are so cute. Did your sister really make that pink one? If I remember right, didn't she watch cooking shows all the time even when she was in grade school? I just love your long hair and looking at new pictures of your super cute family!

Last April I had long blond hair and I could see my hip bones, and in less than 365 days I now have short dark hair and can't even see my feet let alone hip bones!

Dinosaur Bones

Dinosaur Bones
When my mom was pregnant with my little brother Ethan, she showed us the ultrasound picture and my other little brother Bennett was pretty certain it was a picture of dinosaur bones. So here she is, our cute pile of dinosaur bones!! Hopefully she's as cute in real life as she is here!

The best money we ever spent!

It's been really fun buying stuff for the baby on the way, Jake has especially had fun setting up all the new gadgets that bounce, swing, and sing! We have no room left in our tiny one room apartment but it's all worth it! I'm just hoping she really is a girl because I don't know what we'll do with all this pink stuff if she turns out to be a boy!


Diaper Cake

Diaper Cake
On February 14th my mom, grandma, and sister threw me an awesome baby shower back home in Colorado. It was kind of ironic that the same weekend last year they were throwing me a bridal shower. Anyway, my mom and sister Meredith made me the cutest diaper cake I've ever seen!!

A lovely little sinus infection...

A lovely little sinus infection...
So despite all the other wierd little things that go wrong with me, I never get sick! But for some reason when I went home to Colorado, I got the worst sinus infection I've had in so long! Being pregnant I can't take any medication so I had to resort to..well just take a look!
