Las Vegas




Cole and I celebrated our 5th anniversary this month. To celebrate we got to go away to Las Vegas for a weekend without Lexi. My parents were extremely kind and came down to watch Lexi while we went. We got to eat at the Cheesecake factory and the Bellagio buffet. We saw a cool show at MGM called KA. We also did some shopping at the outlets and looked around at the Venetian. It was a nice get away although we both agree we don't need to go back to Vegas anytime soon. It was our first time leaving Lexi. She did really well with my parents. It was a pleasant surprise to all of us. She couldn't get down the Grandma/Grandpa thing so she called them mama and daddy/papa. She loved having them around. I loved having them visit. While they were here we all went bowling. It was Lexi's first time. She loved it (for the first 5 frames). She would clap and dance. She literally danced for 20 minutes straight. It means so much that they would take time off work and come to visit us. Thanks you so much Mom and Dad! I miss you already!

4th of July in Utah



















We spent the 4th of July in Utah. We had so much fun. Lexi and I were able to stay extra long and enjoyed "Steel Days" (American Forks city celebration). Festivities included lunch with Cole's siblings and grandparents, boating at Yuba Lake, taking Lexi to her first movie (eclipse), catching a duck, family BBQ, carnival, parade, picnic in the park, and Kayla's birthday party. We enjoyed being part of the fun.
