Twitter Toes!




So last night while the boys played ping pong, Katie, Jan and I got together and went to Katies sisters house and she painted our toes. Her name is Mindy and her little business is called Twitter Toes and to be honest I have never seen someone so talented in the art of toe painting. She is amazing!!!!!!!! Check out her blog: twittertoes.blogspot.com. For those of you that know me can you tell which ones are mine? Hint: the color I picked!!! Last night was a fun night, it felt good to have some girl time with some of my closest friends! Thanks again to Mindy for being so kind and making it a fun night for us!!!!

Update

Ok I know I havent posted any pictures lately, but honestly our life have been so all over the place there is no time for pictures. As of this last Monday we moved out of St. George and back to Orem. Yes I know we werent there very long, but we didnt like it down there and Rory wasnt able to find a job. Im very grateful we are back in Orem, cause to me there is no place like Orem. Rory and I counted the other day and in the 2 years we have been married we have moved 9 times. Can anyone else beat that?
I am currently 14 1/2 weeks pregnant and hoping the end of Jan. we'll be able to find out if its a boy or girl. It seems Im over the morning sickness and what a blessing that is cause oh man it wasnt fun.
Hopefully soon Ill have some updated pictures to post, but until then Happy New Year!!!!!

Exciting News!

So I know I havent post anything for a while, but we just dont have too many exciting things going on right now EXCEPT.......we are going to have a BABY!!! June 27th is when our little miracle will be joining us. I am a couple weeks away from my second tri and starting to get over the morning sickness (not fun). This weekend we have been at Rorys parents and since Rorys dad works at the hospital here he was able to have one of the nurses do an ultrasound on me. WOW what a blessing that was to see our little baby. Thats when the moment became so real. Seeing the head, arms, feet and little heartbeat moving was awesome. Couldnt think of a better way to end the day that night. Rory and I feel blessed to start this new journey together and Rory has already proven to be a great husband in this pregnancy. Over the last 4 weeks I have been tired and sick and never was up to doing cleaning, cooking or ANYTHING but he sure took care of it. I love Rory with all my heart and so excited to see him hold our baby for the first time, he will make such a great dad.

Our Trip to Utah



















This last week Rory and I were able to go to Utah for his sister Natalies wedding. It was so good to be back. We took family pictures, the wedding, the Utah game, Ramiees baby blessing and we were also able to visit Rorys friend Aaron and his wife and thier 2 day old baby. Just to think we only have a month left till we can be back in Utah where we love.

Need to Relax?



So Thursday a few of us girls got together and worked out. We have 2 great teachers (thanks Mags and Tanya). It was such a great workout and we enjoyed it so much that we did it again Friday and decided to do this workout thing 3 times a week. Well on Saturday we went to the mall and being as sore as some of us were it was hard to walk around. Polly and I looked like grandmas while walking. Anyways we found this store that has massaging stuff in it. I think we spent at least 30 mins there. When I found that reclining chair there and sat in it turned it on I thought for sure I died and went to heaven except heaven doesnt come with a price tag of $2000! I couldnt believe how comfortable that thing was. It was the best massage chair I have ever been on! It was nice to loosen up my sore muscles from the working out. I hope we really do keep this working out thing up, and Katie you really should join us!!
