Richard Marx

Last night Matt and I went to the Richard Marx concert. This was mine and Matt's second time seeing him and he was just as good as the first time we saw him a year ago. He had a few stories that were the same but a lot of new things. He's just a great entertainer. I'm glad we got to go a second time to watch him.

Earlier in the day we took Evan to the pool. Matt has been out of town the entire week so it was really nice to have fun with him after a long absence from him. Leanna came with us so that way we were able to enjoy all the amenities that the Provo Pool offers, like the slides. We took turns going down them and I couldn't believe how fun they were! Since this was the third time I took Evan to the pool this last week, he's gotten used to it so he LOVES the water now. He's become such a water baby. Before we even set foot in the pool, he get's so excited when he sees the water.

Splash

I took this from my phone so it's not the greatest quality but Evan was so cute in the water so I video taped a little bit of it. He was a little hesitant in the water at first because he's not used to cooler water but once he got used to it he was a happy boy. He had an interest with my knee for some reason. He zonked out just 5 mins after putting him in his car seat and wouldn't wake up for anything when I got him home. We had lots of fun with Aunt Elizabeth and Amy. We should do this more
often.

Family Pictures

It's been a while since I got our family pictures back. I will post as promised but I will only post my favorites. You can view the rest of them in the little slide show.

Peek-A-Boo!

Freedom!

Evan loves his new freedom. This is the first mess he made. He found the taffy in a basket by the couch and loved thowing it all over the floor before playing with the bag.

Nothing Safe!

Evan finally figured out how to crawl today so nothing is safe!

Dancing Queen

We were invited to attend my baby sisters dance recital tonight. I just went because Matt is out of town in Indiana or else he would have came. He called me in the middle of it telling me that a Tornado hit 20 miles from him and there are warnings in his area. That's not exactly what I wanted to hear but I know he is safe so I'm not frantic like I was when I first heard.
Ellen's dances were so cute and she did awesome! Evan loved the music but wasn't happy if we cheered out in anyway. Let's hope he gets used to that. I wish I had pictures of her in her dance outfit but I kind of left in a hurry so I could take care of Evan.

The Lord Is My Shepherd

Many of you have been wondering how my project is coming along so I decided to post my progress.



I've been working on this off and on for the past year and a half. I've done most of it during my pregnancy, especially when Matt went out of town. I really haven't worked on it since Evan was born but I recently picked it back up and I work on it when I get a chance. This has been a great challenge for me but I really enjoy working on it.

The Mighty Dons, Class of 2008!

Yesterday my brother Ammon and sister in-law Leanna graduated from High School. Unlike San Diego where we have our Commencement in the football field, they had theirs at Utah State College. If I remember correctly, they had a graduating class of 510. I only had around 350. Their class motto was "The best of the last". Their class is the last class at Spanish Fork High before more than half of the student body gets transferred to the two new High schools that were built in Payson and another one in Spanish Fork. Ericka and Joseph will be attending the new High School.



One of the things I liked about theirs is that when their names were called to receive their diplomas, their picture was taken and it was put up on the big screen for all of us to see.

Congratulations Ammon and Leanna!!!.

Family Pictures

Saturday, during Memorial weekend, Matt's family got together to take some family pictures. Our photographer was Jenae Lee. I really thought the pictures turned out so nice. I haven't gotten all of the photo's back but here is a sneak peak.





You can't tell but it was raining lightly and it was really windy. Usually Evan is so easy to get to smile but Jenae had a hard time getting him to do so. I don't blame him because it was so cold! The picture of us in the circle is the face he was giving most of the time. When I get my own CD of the photo shoot, I will post more pictures
