FuN iN tHE SuN





We are enjoying our time outdoors so much. Evan is not sure what to think of the grass yet, given this is the first time he has seen it, but he seems to like it so far. He's almost crawling too. He gets up on his hands and knees and just rocks for awhile. He can't go forward yet but can cruise pretty far when he goes backward. He's loves drinking out of straws too, but once he starts he can't stop and he has to be so independent with them. Kevin is the dare-devil dad, i'm ok with it though because Evan gives his approval. He loves flying and just plain being a boy.

SO cute!! He looks like such a happy bugger :) Does he only crawl backwards? I did that and my parents would make a trail with twinkies so I'd follow them forwards..apparently it worked because I can now crawl forward..haha

Your baby is too cute! It makes me so excited to have a little boy when I see adorable one's like yours! I got your wedding announcement and it is so cute! I am sad though because I am not going to be able to come to your open house. My husband and I will be in New York next week. So, I left a card in your mailbox at work. Make sure you get it before your last day! Sorry this comment has too much information, but I don't have your number and I don't know how else to contact you!

THE BIG DAY

So here they are, the pics from our wedding. The day was wonderful and we had such a blast. It turned out so great, the photographer was awesome and the minister was cool too. We had a Hawaiian style ceremony where we exchanged leis, they blew the conch shell and said a prayer spoken in Hawaiian... so cool! But because all weddings have to have stress it was pretty nuts getting to the wedding. With Kev not felling well and us not being able to find the wedding spot, which was crazy, we finally had a wedding that went smoothly and beautifully. The weather was perfect too and there was hardly anyone on the beach, which created a perfect romantic atmosphere. We are so glad we were able to go and enjoy our private little wedding. But for everyone who wasn't there, really... everyone, we brought back a pretty awesome video of the whole thing to share. I can't believe we really got married in Hawaii!!! And we're so glad we did, what a great memory.

Our time on Oahu

Every one has been asking to see pics from our Hawaii trip so even though it was a month ago, I figured what better way. We had a blast. Our hotel was in Waikiki and we had a fun room with a great view of the ocean and Diamond Head volcano crater it was awesome. We toured a lot and spent a lot of time on the north shore (you know, where the surf competitions are). Our favorite things were the Polynesian Cultural Center (please if you visit Oahu..GO!!!) they do a fun luau and a great show, and Pearl Harbor, it was so peaceful and amazing. There is evidence in our pics that we surfed, I was better than I thought and course Kev was good, that was a great time but oh we were tired. We also boogie boarded, snorkeled (which I didn't love so much...Fish ahh!!) And ate great food. The Dole Plantation had great pinnapple ice cream. We hiked a beautiful waterfall in a botanical garden which was probably the most lush place I have ever seen, but most of all we relaxed on the beach and enjoyed our surroundings. In the end 10 days was just enough time to have a blast and be ready to come home to our baby and good old Utah.
