A visit from Maria, Trevor and Little Reese!

A couple weekends ago, our good friends, the Gilbert's, from BYU-I were in Pennsylvania visiting Maria's family. We usually try to get together everytime they come and have only missed one year so far since parting ways!

We met up halfway at Chili's. It was so fun this time because Sierra and Reese are the same age and could actually communicate. They were so cute together. I didn't get any pictures of the adults but I did get a few blurry ones of the girls playing outside after lunch.

they were pretty excited to find the rocks.

For some reason Reese's face is blurry in every picture. Oh well, they're still so cute. See you next year guys!

27th Birthday

I just realized I never posted about my actual birthday. It's only a month late. haha We didn't do much this year since I was about to pop and Eric's parents were out of town. OH and Eric left for Spain the day before. Just a small detail. Luckily I have awesome friends who took me out for dinner while he was gone, so it was a little less painful. ;)
a little celebration 2 nights before Eric left. i don't look very pleased. maybe i had severe heartburn. (also all the other pictures sierra had her eyes closed or they were blurry-don't worry we got a new camera for christmas!)

Shelby, Jen, Krystal, me and Alyssa at Bertucci's. Thanks girlies! Whose birthday is next?

A Winner!

This morning I was going along, reading my blogs and at the end of a decorating blog that I follow called A Soft Place to Land, I saw my name! I actually won a giveaway! I was so shocked! Ocassionally I'll enter giveaways and NEVER win so I was pretty excited to see that I finally had.

I won two ornaments from Lisa Leonard Designs. She makes really pretty necklaces and bracelets and a few other things too. I think I'm going to get an ornament for Sierra and the new baby with their names and 1st christmas engraved on one of these little beauties:

Aren't they SO pretty? Thanks Kimba and Lisa!
