Backyard Adventures...

Last Saturday we spent a few hours at Backyard Adventures for Hayley's birthday (my niece)! She turned 4, and I am sure she just loved this birthday! The kids had alot of fun, including the "BIG" kids...(wink wink Andy). We all wished we could take one of those playgrounds home with us. We had a great time! Happy Birthday Hayley! :)

Playing Outside! :)

Brooklyn just loves to be outside. Here are some pictures we have taken of her playing with her friend Riley, and daddy! She also loves to do bubbles with Aunt Lolo! She has got some great facial expressions when the bubbles pop by her! Too bad we can't keep the weather nice to play outside more often! Someday! :)

Brookie's little visit....

Last week we had a little adventure to Primary Children's. (no worries). Brooklyn had been to the dentist and they found a few teeth that needed to be taken care of. In order to do that, we thought it was best to have her under anesthesia, being that she is the strongest 2 year old I know, and wouldn't let anyone go near her teeth. We started out at about 9:00 in the morning, and filled out paperwork, then she was checked out by a nurse to make sure she was healthy, and to ask a few questions. She weighs 24 pounds, and according to the height measurement is as tall as Cinderella. (I am not really sure what the REAL measurement was though) :)

She got to play with bubbles and toys, get into some pajamas and was pretty excited to be wearing a bracelet with her name on it! She most definetely doesn't like being at the doctor, but was a trooper! We waited for a bit longer and then they gave her some medicine to make her somewhat sleepy and then they took her. The medicine didn't quite kick in, so she was VERY upset leaving us. To me, that was the hardest part. I had a few tears myself! :) We waited for about 1 1/2 hours until they were done, and then we got to go get her and stay with her until she was able to hold down fluids and wake up a bit more. She was such a BIG girl. She had no real pain afterwards, and only was sick for a few hours after we got home. The doctor said she might have sore gums for a little while, but it didn't seem to bother Brooklyn. She was eating graham crackers and being her happy little self by nighttime. It was quite a day, but we made it! I am just thankful that we were there for such a tiny fix, and that she is a healthy girly with a pretty smile!!!

There's more where that came from....

I have been going through ALL my pictures that I have taken over the last few years. My oh my...I can see why i have no hard drive space on my computer anymore. Thought it would be fun to post some pictures of Brooklyn each a year apart. We got another hard drive today in the mail for our computer....so the pictures will continue....woo hoo!!! :) I love taking pictures and can't seem to delete any on the camera...Thanks Andy!

Oquirrh Mountain Temple

As a Young Women's group we've been visiting the temple site as it progresses. Right now if you drive by it, it looks like a "yellow" temple because they are insulating it. The steeple is almost ready to be put on too. It was fun to be there and reminded me of when the Bountiful Temple was being built, and as a family we would drive up there and watch it's progess. It's so great that we have the opportunity to watch these wonderful buildings being built, and know bits and pieces of what it takes to make them so beautiful.

St. George Trip

We just got back from our little family vacation to St. George. We thought it would be fun to do before we had our second little arrival in July. Lori came with us, and it was alot of fun. We stayed at a condo for a few nights, then a hotel for one night. We just had a great time relaxing at the pool, shopping, and even drove to Las Vegas for a few hours to show Brooklyn the M&M factory. We visited the St. George temple, and celebrated mine and Lori's birthday while we were there. It was great weather, and we had a great time! Can't wait until the next time!!!

Make a slideshow - it's easy!
