The ABC's

A is for Anniversary....
August 18th, David and I shared our 4th Anniversary! Marie came to babysit while David and I went to Park City and rode the zip lines. I was so scared at first, just from being afraid of heights, but it was so fun! We stayed and watched people take their ski's off of jumps and into the pool doing back flips and other tricks. That was really fun to see, in fact, David wants to take the class so he can take his board of the olympic jumps and into the pool too. After that we went to Wasabi for all you can eat sushi. My Favorite!! Then with full bellies we walked around Liberty Park. It was a great anniversary honey, thank you & I love you!


He even bought me roses! Those of you who know David really well, will know how suprised I was to receive roses, thanks love!
B is for Birthdays....
Saturday August 29th Stella's 1st and my 27th birthday!
I made Stella's cake, David made my cake and we both made plenty of food.
She couldn't figure out what to do with it at first. In fact she was a little nervous with everyone watching her and camera's pointing at her. But as you'll soon see, she figured it out eventually.



Stella's sippy cup, the final topper

The best part about the cake was after she made her mess, "David, she's all done and It's my birthday too, so you get to clean her up!" Ha Ha!

Our family


Our neighbors, friends and Stella's play pal, Coasten, Nate and Shana


Pam with her mom and three kids

This is what David gave me for my birthday, a bike trailer/stroller. So far Stella and I have put it to good use. I absolutely love it!
Thank you everyone for making our birthday's so special! We are so blessed to have friends and family like you!!
C is for Camping...
David had a family reunion at camp Bartlett over the Labor day weekend. We camped out in a tent for 3 nights and Stella did great! I'm coming to find out she doesn't mind adventures like these because she loves anything new and she loves the outdoors. I should have taken more pics of the family and scenery, but I did get some cute shots of her holding still for once! I'm not into feeding her too much sugar, but I gave her a lolly pop and had to capture her cuteness.


Sharing with daddy

Want some???

She is getting cuter and cuter everyday. I LOVE this stage, she's so much fun and learning little bits at a time how to communicate. I just can't imagine our lives without her. She is the BEST.

I get nervous shooting guns, but they had a rifle range and I had to test it out too. This was David's dad's gun a 9mm. Yikes!!

Tuckered out on the way home. This is her new forward facing seat grandma Lolly gave her for her birthday. The first day we set her in and drove to church and back she giggled the whole way. She loves being able to watch more of whats going on with mommy and daddy.

Tormenting the neighbor's cat


Bent it half... her newest sleeping position.

She just started cuddling with this puppy I received ages ago. She snuggles it right before she falls asleep and cuddles it the whole night through.

Looks like you guys had a fun birthday! Stella's getting so big. You're right, it's such a fun, fun age right now! We find ourselves just laughing and laughing all day at the funny things Ava does.

I LOVE the pic of you shooting the 9mm! Atta girl! I had no idea you liked guns. Brad and I go shooting a lot...you should come sometime.

We're glad things are good! We still need to see your new place and give you and Stella your birthday gift!

Hi, I'm Erin said...

So SO cute! I love her! She is super cute in hats. I love the pic of her in the little brown sweater and hat! Zander started loving his "Puppy," who he now calls "Doggy" (not sure why he changed the name) when he turned 1. He still carries it everywhere and sleeps with it every night. I wish we could have been there for the birthdays! Stella's cake was really pretty & it looks like she really enjoyed it! And we totally would have enjoyed all you can eat sushi with you! Miss you guys SO much!! Erin
