Vacation Time!!



We just got back today after a wonderful 7 day vacation to California.. It was a much needed vacation and was awesome! We left last Friday and headed for vegas, and then from there we went to Cali for 4 nights and then back to Vegas for a night... We had a blast.. My dad and brother joined us so it was good to have company.. :) The first day in San Diego we went to Sea World, which is always fun, but alot funner with kids.. Jayven just loved all the fish and they even have a few rides now for the little ones.. It has changed alot since I went 3 years ago.. My camera was not working for the first half of the day so everything is on video and i don't know how to post video clips on here.. :( The second day we went to the beach which was really fun, Jayven learned how to boogie board and he loved it! we took him out pretty far and let him ride the waves in he would fall off and get up and say "again again" so he did it for a few hours.. James and I were also boarding so we didn't get any pictures, just video.. So when I figure out how to post them I will.. That night My dad and Zach went out on a fishing trip that lasted thru til the next day so it was good that James, Jayven and I had a night and day to our selves.. They had a great time fishing and caught three fish, I cant beleive how big a tuna fish is, one Albecore, and two yellow fins.. It was neat.. So the third day James, Jayven and I went up onto Camp Pendleton and did a little shopping which is nice cause it is so much cheaper, and then we went and saw our old house. I'm super jealous at how nice it is now that the civilian contractors took over they have made things so much nicer up there.. We wish we were back out there really bad.. Good times.. I also took Jayven to a military barber shop and had his hair cut in a medium high which is a military cut.. He is so stinkin cute! :) And he didn't move once or make a single sound during his cut.. The final day in Cali we went to the beach again but didn't stay long cause we went onto the MCRD and went thru the historical museum for the Marine Corps.. It was really cool, and I have never been on that base so it was interesting, it brought back old memories for James going thru boot camp cause that is where it is held.. I wish I would have gone to his graduation.. We got into vegas that night about 9 and stayed up playing in the arcade til 1 a.m. that was fun too.. Yesterday we woke up late and we still needed to go turn in our tickets for prizes so we thought we'd hurry and do it well, we ended up staying and playing til 3:30. Oops which made for a late night getting back to American Fork..
What a great vacation though.. Thanks James for taking the time off work to take us, it was really fun.. :) I hope Jayven remembers it forever! Now for lots of pictures! Sorry so many, but there are too many to choose from...

Belly Pic and a few of the boys!

I am into my 4th month of pregnancy, and between 18-20 pounds lighter.. Even with the little guy inside me growing at just the perfect rate.. How does this work? Well, being sick doesn't help.. So here is a picture of my belly at 16 weeks and a couple days..
I can't leave this cute picture out.. Jayven has been enjoying our yard and the awesome sun.. I just love how these two boys play! We sure do enjoy when Rev comes to play!!! :)
And this is what I came home to after going out for some ice cream...


How precious!! Long day, but I still am not too happy that it is only 7:30 and Jayven is asleep, thanks to the 4 am wake up mom!!

A few more! :)

In order... On Memorial day weekend we had this bright idea to go camping. Little did we know it was going to rain the entire time we were there. Although it rained we had a great time. We went with my dad and brother and then our friends Jared and Jessica came with their two girls Jayden and Jordyn. The kids had an awesome time, and the boys had a fun time being total rednecks building us a "tent" it was pretty awesome, it was a 40 foot by 20 foot tarp that they strung from tree to tree so we had someplace dry to sit.. I wished I would have taken a picture but I guess I didn't.. So here are the pictures!

Zach Jayven and Jade having a snowball fight!
They definately can hold their own! :)
Jayven loves to ride on the 4 wheelers and he always chose to ride with grandpa rather than mom or dad!! Go figure. James is on his tote goat. He loves that thing!
Jared and Jessica taking Jordyn on her first ride! She just fell asleep. They had alot of fun too! Thanks for going guys!!

Jayven is doing the Robot Dance!
And last week we went swimming with friends, it was our 3rd time this year and Jayv loves it!

Yesterday we went and saw they air show! Jayven loved the planes!


Thats all for now!! :)


Zoo






I took Jayven to the zoo a few weeks ago he had alot of fun.. I can't wait til next year to see what he will know and understand then!! :) but here are more pictures!!

I am almost as big as the gorilla!!

I think so far his favorite animal there were the monkeys! He loved how they moved and was so entertained by them! :)
The train ride was his favorite!






Its been a while!!

Well, as most of you already know I have been super sick with this pregnancy and haven't felt up to doing much at all. I have been feeling better in just this last one week so it is looking good but we aren't going to push it too far! :) I have a ton of pictures of Jayven and what he has been up to. He is growing so dang fast and getting cuter and cuter every day. He has also started talking ALOT I guess I shouldn't have worried about anything, it is all coming around now, although he is having a hard time with his "R's" hopefully they will come to him too..
I am going to post a lot of pictures so beware!! Also we find out what the baby is next Thursday the 18th. Let us know what you think we'll have!!
