24th of July

Matt and I spent the 24th of July weekend up in Midway with my sister Trish and her family. It was a lot of fun! Matt and Tyler went golfing while us girls hung out, then we went up to my parent's cabin to watch fireworks and hang out. Matt and I spent the night at the cabin, which was a lot of fun since we haven't ever really been up there alone. I didn't take any pictures, but it was a lot of fun! Thanks Trish and Tyler for letting us hang with you guys all weekend!

On Monday Matt and I went up into the canyon to have a picnic. It was beautiful weather, and we had such a great time just hanging out. Matt actually chose me over golf. . . shocker!!! It meant a lot to me since he has been so busy with school and work lately, and I am an emotional wreck from this pregnancy and having too much time on my hands from being off track. We also went to a movie later that day. Such a fun day with my hubby.

Painting the Nursery

Getting ready for the baby has been a lot of fun, but the most fun so far has been painting the nursery. Trish came over on Friday afternoon to get it started. She painted the ceiling white, and 3 walls a pale artichoke green color. It was looking darling!

 I even helped! Mask and all!!

 

Then yesterday Trish came back and we finished painting the room by painting the remaining 2 walls hot pink! It is the most darling thing I've ever seen. I knew that it would be cute in my head, but it turned out even better then I was expecting. I love it! Thanks Trish! You are amazing!!

I can't wait to get my furniture and really add all the details to the room. Just having the paint finished feels awesome though. At least I'm one step closer.

I just know it is going to turn out darling. She will love it!!

Happy 4th of July!

 

This year for the 4th of July we got together with our friends at the South Jordan park for hamburgers, games, and good conversation. We love having such a close group of friends where we all enjoy being together and having a good time. Thanks Amy for being the planner and making this day so much fun.

After eating and playing beanbag toss, everyone got very competitive over a game of volleyball.

Poor Jason broke his leg, so he was the babysitter for a little while.

We had the best seat in the house! It was a blast!!

Happy 4th of July everyone!

Ending the School Year

This school year is officially over, and I am really going to miss my class. I had some darling students, and ending the school year was bittersweet.

My students were so excited for me to become a mommy, so almost all of the end of the year gifts I received were baby gifts! It was so much fun. Every time one of my students would give me a gift, I  opened it in front of my whole class and they would all "Ooo and Ahh" over whatever the gift was. It was darling!

Here is a picture of all the gifts I got from my 3rd graders! They spoiled me rotten!!

One of my favorite things about working at my school is getting to work with the wonderful women on my team. Regan and Marilee were my lifesavers during the tough times I had with my class this year, and they are two of the reasons why I love my job! Both of them were so sweet and bought me a baby gift when I found out we were having a girl. Thanks ladies! You are amazing!
