We are PREGNANT!!!!!!



On July 17th, Rob and I found out that we are expecting!!!!! We are both excited and cannot wait to hold our little bundle of joy!!!! We told my parents over dinner at Black Angus with my sisters Erin, Katie, and Rhena! It was great to be able to share the news before my sister Erin left for home. My mom is really excited just like all the rest of family. My older nieces and nephews are really excited the younger ones just looked at me like I am crazy! Rob's parents had been out of town picking up Emelia from BYU-Idaho, when we found out the news so we had to wait a little while and it almost killed me to wait! We did a creative way to tell his parents! We got a shoe box, on the inside we wrote " Mom and Dad guess what???" inside the box was pacifiers, and bibs that said "I love Grandma, and I love Grandpa" Rob's mom was very happy as well as his Dad! It was one of those moments you never want to forget! We will keep you posted on how the baby is doing! We are due at the end of March!

My Sister ERIN!!!!



Sorry it has been awhile but Rob and I have been very busy with life! So now I am going to play catch up and post two new blogs!!! ( Okay MELISSA K.) !!!! HAHAHA! My sister Erin and her three children, Mikayla, Trevor, and Rylee came down to visit before their big move from Idaho to Portland, Oregon! It was the best to have them around for a few days! Rob and I got to hang out a lot with Erin and went many places! We would go shopping, out to eat, and we made a trip to Ikea, because Erin had not been yet and I think she fell in love! Mikayla has grown up so much, Trevor is still that little boy with a wild imagination, and Little Rylee was her crazy self! Uncle Robbie taught her many wonderful things to say like for example " lock it up!!!" which she thought was so funny to say to anyone anywhere! Awhile ago Rob and I got the game singstar, that all our family now is addicted too! We took it over to my parents and Erin, Katie, and I had a blast battling, we didn't sound great but it was awesome! I loved having my sister down here for a little while, it was amazing! I really did not want to say good bye! I wish her move was to Sacramento, but hey maybe someday! So Erin if your reading this, just know that I love you so much and miss you everyday!

Fireworks!!!! The 3rd and 4th of JULY!!!!!!












My Family decided to do Fireworks on the 3rd of July, do not ask me why! I never said they were normal! Hahaha! So all of my family got together at my grandparents and my brother Michael was the man for fireworks! It was fun to see my cousins, and other family members! We still have a few little ones in my family so of course there were a lot of tears, and going inside! My nephew Eric though is sooooo.... funny. He was sitting in a little chair watching the fireworks and turned around and said, "I love Fire!" while his older brother is crying because he was so scared! hahaha. My niece Paige who is 7 years old,sat on Uncle Robbie's lap the whole time! Lets just say she Loves him and wants all his attention! hahaha!



On the Fourth of July Rob and I were able to first sleep in! That was wonderful. Later that evening we went over to Rob's older sisters house Elizabeth. Since Rob's mom's birthday is on the 6th of July we decided to have cake and presents then as well! It was so much fun, and Rob's sister did a great job on the food! Pulled Pork sandwiches, corn on the cob, and more yummy food! Then came the fireworks! We could see the Fireworks from Sunrise mall and they were beautiful! Then came the Fireworks Jason, Elizabeth's husband bought and a few others! The Boys had a ton of fun! Even my Father in law was having a blast! Hannah, Rob's little niece was of course worried for the guys safety especially when they were holding them while they were going off! Don't worry luckily there were no trips to the hospital! Just good food, fun, and FIREWORKS!!








River Cats GAME!!!!







On Monday July 1st. I got off work and was really tired and knew that I had laundry and other things to do at home, but when I checked my phone I had a missed call from my Mom and in her message she invited Rob and I to go to the River cats Baseball game that evening with her and my dad and my sister her husband and their kids. I checked with Rob to see if he wanted to go. Of course I got the answer that I already knew. So we went and it was Fantastic! The weather was perfect, the kids were so much fun, and Rob and I were able to get my Favorite food!!!!! A HOT DOG!!! but not just any hot dog a Giant one pound of hot dog delight! hahaha. Sorry I forgot to take a picture of it, I was really hungry! It was totally worth being extra tired the next day! Take me out to the ball game any day!
