Growing Girl

We decided at four months that is was time to start Halle on the rice cereal! She is slowly getting the hang of it and loving it! It is so weird how fast she is growing!

Daddy's Girl

There are some nights that I have to keep Halle up so she is able to see her Daddy, just because I can tell that she misses him and he misses seeing her! This night in particular Halle was having a hard time going to bed so I kept her awake, right when Greg got home and grabbed her they sat down and went right to sleep together! Its funny how the simple things in life mean the most. This is one of my favorite pictures, Greg is such a good dad, and you can tell by the way Halle is nestled so close to him!

Nauvoo

I was able to go and meet my parents in Nauvoo! If you have ever been there you know that it is well worth the time and energy it takes to get out there. The spirit there is amazing, we were able to see the pageant two nights, eat at the merchantile, go on a carriage ride, and much much more. The only thing that was missing was the rest of the family. I really cannot wait until Greg can go. I told my mom and dad how thankful I was for the sacrifices they always gave so we were able to take trips as kids, and I truely mean it. My parents always gave up so much so we were able to learn develop knowledge of our faith. Thanks mom and dad!

Busy as Bees!

I know, I have been slacking a great deal in the Blog department! We have been busy and I am so excited to post our latest adventures, so please bear with me! Halle is doing Very well and I think that is why I am slacking so much, I am trying to soak up every minute of her being this small! I never knew all the amazing things that were in store for me, I love my family so much (and I consider friends my family as well!)

She Speaks!

I know I know, she is too young to talk, but she really does think she is already! I coo with her all day long and she laughs and smiles when I speak her language! She is so cute, this video isn't the best but it's what I have caught so far! She is not a fan of the video camera, she likes my undivided attention!

Six Flags

Greg's office won a challenge, so they won a trip to Six Flags!! It was a lot of fun to go and hang out. Most of you that know me know that I am anything but a thrill seeker! But I do enjoy watching, when I lived in California when I was younger, one of my favorite memories was going to Disneyland with my grandparents (thank you grandma and grandpa!) It was fun to remember those times, and be in that atmosphere again. Greg had an awesome time riding the roller coasters, he is one of those crazy guys that loves theme parks! I can't wait until next summer when I get to take Halle and Greg to Disneyland!

These were the days

Lately I have thought if the many things that I miss. Rock Creek, I basically grew up there, and it will always hold a sweet place in my heart!

Shanny Butt, she is on a mission right now and there is nothing I want to do more than talk to her on the phone, at least! We were always in trouble (or at least I was because she blamed everything on me!) If you know Shannon, once she is in your life, she is contagious! You need her smiling face all the time!

Our crazy family time, it's amazing while you are growing up how often you are trying to get away from your family, and then you move away and you spend the rest of your life trying to get back together with them! My family is amazing and I am so thankful that my mom fostered the relationships between my siblings! I love them, all of them!
