Visits from Family

In the last couple of months we have had two visits from family!! We feel loved. And we look forward to more visits after the baby comes-although we know those visits have nothing to do with us and everything to do with this little girl ;) First, my family drove up for spring break. We packed a lot into a few days but had tons of fun.
We had lots of hugs...

and lots of red hair...(Alyssa, then Kayla, then me)

and boy time-watching sports and playing with cars...

and girls time-making flower accessories...

and explored Kansas City, traveled through a snow blizzard, ate yummy food, and had a great time together. Thanks for coming!!

And then a couple weeks ago Shanna and Austin came to visit!! Shan and Matthew ended up with an extra flight and decided we needed a visit. I was so excited! We also packed a ton into the week. While she was here we held a booth at a local event selling our aprons. We had so much fun doing it together and had a very successful time. We hope to do more in the future! Preparing and getting ready for that took a lot of our time but once that was over we...

watched our boys play together...

and took our boys to the zoo...

and bathed the boys together (Austin had so much fun with this. So much that it almost took 3 of us to contain him. And then he pooped in the bath which totally freaked Cade out and made him weary of baths for like the next 3 days. I am literally laughing to my self right now because it was SOOO funny)...

and spent quality time with Aunt Shan... (sorry Shan-I know you will hate the first picture but it was so cute of you all in jammies and snuggling!)

Thanks for coming Shan! It was a huge help and we had tons of fun!

Utah County Surveyor

The past few weeks have been stressful as my dad has been running for Utah County Surveyor. He was by far the most qualified for the position, and all things considered, deserved to win the election. I'm proud that he ran an honest campaign and remained true to his values.

In order to avoid a primary election, my dad needed to obtain at least 61% of the votes. Fortunately, 65% of the ballots looked similar to this:

Congrats Dad!!! We are glad the delegates were able to see what we know-a hard working man of integrity who will continue to serve the people of Utah County with all diligence. Love you!

-Cole, Jenna, & Cade

Easter Picture Attempt

We have had 6 long months of really cold weather. Now with warm weather finally coming Cade is just itching to get outside. And when he does-there is no holding him back. He just loves to run around. Even at a park-he will play on the equippment for a while but then he will resort to running around in circles. On Sunday afternoon we took some pictures outside. Well, we tried to. The trick is to get Cade to hold still long enough. Our header is the only one that was close enough. Here are all the other "tries" and little snippets we caught of Cade before he dashed off again!
