BELIZE

We are headed to Belize, baby! Jared and I are looking forward to our first scuba trip since getting certified. I have to admit, I am a little nervous about diving, but as it gets closer the nerves have turned to excitment!! We'll report back next week...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME....
Yes, I am getting seriously old! I turn 29 on Tuesday (another reason for our Belize trip). Jared called my family and had them meet us at Cheesecake Factory for an early birthday dinner on Saturday. It was a great night. Unfortunately our pictures didn't really turn out, so I don't have any to post.

UPDATE...

LUKE'S BIRTHDAY


Luke turned 1 on Saturday, June 14! We had a BBQ and invited family over to celebrate. Wyatt was extremely excited for the party and presents! When Luke woke up Wyatt ran into his room and sang "Happy Birthday" at the top of his lungs. After we ate we brought the cake out and set it in front of Luke so he could dig in, but he wasn't interested. When he finally did stick his fingers in he started to cry! Maybe he doesn't like chocolate cake?! Luke got a lot of really fun things to play with..thanks to everyone for the gifts and for all your help!


FATHER'S DAY!


On Father's Day we headed over to my brothers house to meet the newest addition to the family....STELLA KATE WEBB. What a cutie! Cameron and Jenny, we are happy the adoption worked out and that you are parents of a beautiful little girl! I feel blessed to have a wonderful father and father-in-law in my life and even though Jared never reads our blog I wanted to thank him for being a great father too. Wyatt and Luke love him and look forward to him coming home from work each day. When Jared comes home both of them rush to the door for a hug from dad. We love you Jared!

REUNION FUN


June 5-7 we headed up to Show Low with our tent to join Jared's family for a reunion. Jared's Mom put the whole thing together...and it turned out to be a whole lot of fun for everyone! Wyatt had the time of his life paddling in a boat with dad, jumping on the trampoline, swinging, throwing rocks in the lake, and most of all exploring with his cousins. Luke decided he would teach himself to walk! He had been taking steps at home, but while we were there he really started walking. We all got cold in the evening in our tent, so the next night Luke and I stayed in Taylor at Jared's sister's house. Thanks Jenny! I feel blessed to be a part of such a great family!

OCD?

I really should relax a little more. I spent like 2 hours lastnight organizing our food storage closet!! I just can't take it when the cans face the wrong way. Looks lovely though doesn't it?

CALI

**IF YOU HAVEN'T SENT ME YOUR EMAIL ALREADY THEN PLEASE DO. WE ARE GOING PRIVATE!**




Until then..here's some pictures of our trip to California over Memorial Day weekend. We stayed in a great beach house in Oceanside with family and friends. Thanks Brad and Julie for making all of the arrangements! The weather was beautiful, the boys did great, and Jared and I got into Knotts Berry Farm for free...who could ask for anything more? Wyatt made a new friend, and he told me he loved her "with all his heart." So cute.

"Cheeeese!"
This was Luke's first time at the beach. He loved it and didn't even try to eat sand.
Check out that beach bod...sorry Luke, it's just too cute!


I was really excited for Wyatt to experience Knotts and Disneyland! The first ride he went on was a log ride at Knotts. We purchased the picture that was taken while the ride goes down a huge drop...it was hilarious! Wyatt's face was pure fear! I'm surprised he willingly went on any rides after that, but he ended up loving it and became more brave as the day went on. Pirates at Disneyland was a little scary, but at the end he was laughing, so no harm done. I can tell he's not much of a thrill seeker, and that's OK with me. As for me...I look forward to the treats at amusement parks (funnel cakes, cotton candy, churros). I planned on sampling a little of each, but all I got this time was a churro. I'm sure my hips are thanking me for that. The last ride Wyatt and I rode at Disneyland was the teacups. I sat there spinning around and around with my cute 2 1/2 year old by my side...we were both laughing, the fireworks had just started, and I started to miss my Mom. I know, kind of an odd time to think about her, but Disneyland was her favorite place. I just wished she could be there with us on the teacup ride. I wished she could be sitting next to Wyatt and sharing his excitement, because I know that would've meant so much to her! I'm embarest to admit that I even got a little misty eyed. Who cries on the teacup ride?! What a fun trip! I am already looking forward the next time we can go back to CA.
THE HAPPIEST PLACE ON EARTH!

Just because

So Jared and I have decided to make our blog private. We don't have any scary stalker story or anything like that, but we just thought it might be a good idea...so while I figure out how to do it, and you still want to check in on our blog, then go ahead and give me your email address so I can add you to the list.

I can't ever post something without a picture!
