September Birthday Party

For all the September birthdays (Katies, Michelles & Myself) we all went out to the farm in Fairview for a picnic. It was way fun. All the family came and we just chilled and had good food and checked out Mom & Dads new cow! On my actual Birthday Franco made me breakfast! It was delicious! He is such a sweetie, he gave me a camera and I love it! My old one died. It really wasn't even that old - maybe a year? Anywho he also gave me some cash so I could buy some clothes! Thats the best gift ever:) And at work Betty Jo decorated my desk - it was all cute and pink and covered with goodies. It was a way fun birthday. Not that I am enjoying getting older! This one feels like I am really old now. Thats not cool!!

Two Genius's at Work:)

So Betty Jo and I came up with this saying one day at work when we were so busy working on trying not to work. And I think it is genius! It really cracked me up...maybe it had just been a long day, but I really think it is catchy, and so true. Its a "feel good" kinda saying. And yes to answer your questions we are going to put them on shirts, hats, pencils, backpacks, bibs, undies, and just about anything you can think of. Were taking orders, so just let me know exactly how many you want! (Oh and just in case this phrase is already out there, dont tell us! It will totally crush us!)

Fish Lake

My whole family went to Fish Lake a couple weeks ago. We stayed in a cabin and rented a pontoon for a couple days. We fished the whole time! Everyone was so excited about catching fish. It was way fun. Franco caught about 10 fish and I caught 11! True Story. I love Fish Lake, it is so beautiful up there. I cant wait to go back!

Its a Boy!

On June 25th we found out we are having a boy! We are so excited! His name is Gianluca and for short we'll call him Luca. Franco picked out the name, right on baby! ha Anywho he is so active, always kicking and moving, he just started with the hiccuping and it cracks me up to watch my belly randomly start moving. I love it! I cant wait to meet this little guy, he has brought so much joy into our lives already!

Betty Jo's Bridal Shower

My little baby sister is getting married! I'm way excited for her. Her big day is July 1st, so soon! So we threw her a shower on Saturday. It was fun we had a bunch of her friends come and all the girls in the family were there. We did the usual, play games, talk, eat yummy food and shower her with gifts. She is having two more showers! Her mother - in - law to be is doing one this next Saturday and then the ladies from her ward are giving her one too! Lucky girl:) She deserves to be spoiled, she is such a cutie. And I love her to death! Oh she also got her bridals done and I did her hair. I was so nervous! It had to be perfect, and I think she was pretty happy with it - she looked beautiful! I just have to do it one more time on her wedding day....no pressure!! Ha

We're Pregnant!

Its true! I found out on March 21st that we're expecting a little one, and we're so excited! I'm about 15 weeks along and have been doing pretty good so far. Besides the constant urge to want to break into tears for no good reason and the crazy turn my eating habits have taken, I would say it has been cake! Oh yes and not to mention my growing waisteline. Although I'm not really showing yet, I definitely feel huge! I still have yet to go to the doctors. Yes, crazy as it may sound my first appointment isn't until the 25th of June! So I will be 19 weeks along by time I have my first visit. Oh well, I'm a little slow:) Franco thinks it a boy and I of course know its a girl. But we shall see in 6 short weeks who is right. I'm so ready for this baby to be here and I have forever left! I'm sure the time will fly by and before you know it I will be an ol' pro at this mom thing. I guess I should just enjoy my sleep while I can still get some!

Wedding Day!

An absolutely perfect day! Feb. 26th Franco and I got married in the Provo temple. Everything was so beautiful, including the weather! It was a sunny 50 outside. After the ceremony we came out and got plenty of pictures and then off to my parents house for a luncheon. Then what seemed like only seconds had passed we were off to the reception hall for family pictures. The White Willow was beautiful and a perfect place for our party! After the send off - we raced to our car to find it was trashed!! There was shaving cream and peanut butter INSIDE and out of the car - unbelievable!! It took us an hour to get it all cleaned off the inside windows. Needless to say we got on the road to Salt Lake where we stayed the night and then in the morning it was off to Vegas! We had a blast!

Looking back it seemed that all of that planning and getting ready for the big day went by so fast. It was so fun getting everything ready with my mom and sisters. I enjoyed every second of the whole experience. And it was great to have Franco help calm me down when I thought things were getting stressful!
