weekend recap

this boy is happiest in the water! He finaly got to try out his christmas present. He has been patiently waiting for a chance to try the paddle board, and in the 2 hours of no rain this weekend, he got his chance in the Willamette River. I'm pretty eager to try it out too, but there was no way I was getting into that water, it was soo cold!

He also joined a local Ausie Rules Football team and they had their first game this weekend. He was so excited, he could control his urge to tackle everyone who got near him. That includes taking down this kid into a huge puddle! It was hilarious!

"good on 'ya mate!"

4 fabulous years

after 4 fabulous years, i love...

waking up next to you
snuggling on the couch
our long talks in the car
learning even more about you
our crazy adventures
making you laugh
your drive for life
making you happy
your cheeseball smile
our little family
every moment I'm with you
that you make me want to be better

you more now than ever!

After all this time, you are still the man of my dreams. Cheers to 4 fantastic years and an eternity to come!

i HEART california

What a great trip! Not only did I get to see my wonderful family and friends, but my mom is an amazing party planner and threw me the best shower ever! I was so overwhelmed with all the people who came (some I havent seen in like 7 years) and their generosity, I cannot begin to send out enough thank you's! This little boy is already so loved and goint to be one stylish kid! - Unfortunately, I have only 1 picture because my moms camera stinks and they all have funky lines running through them :( I got to spend about 3 days with one of my best friends, who also happens to be due with her first little girl 2 weeks after me (talk about perfect planning). It was so fun to compare bellies, and all the "joys" of being prego since this is all new territory for both of us. There was LOTS of baby talk- sorry Lynds, who had to endure it over lunch- but it was the best! We played in Rancho and San Clemente (who doesnt love a beautiful day at the beach in the winter).

My Uncle and his family were in town from UT as well, so it was fun to see them and my cute cousins. They ADORED Justin. He is going to be the best dad ever!

My grandpa from Canada (my moms dad) was also in town and made it out for a great evening with us. Hes a big cowboy, and Justin loves getting him going about life back home on the cattle ranch.
