Look what I found on KSL classifieds......

It's the same range I had in my house in Richfield. I found it yesterday morning for $250.00 and by the time I called on it, the price was already lowered to $200.00. SCORE!

Why do I need to buy a new oven? It's simple really..... the house we are buying doesn't have one. More details to come.

Pioneer children sang as they walked and walked and walked....

The youth in our church have been given the opportunity to go to Martin's Cove this week. They left early Monday morning and will be back tonight. They get to experience just a little bit of what the early pioneers went through in order to get to Utah so they could practice our religion.

We got all the kids ready with their pioneer clothes and other gear and sent them on their way.
This is Tristan with his "Ma and Pa". He's in a family and will push and pull the handcart and get them where they need to go.
I'm excited that Tristan has the opportunity to take part in the Trek. I hope he learns a lot about sacrifice and faith. I hope his testimony grows. I hope he is able to share with us what he learned. I'm so thankful for him and for his willingness to try new things and be excited about it! I can't wait to see him tonight!

I spy with my little eye....

The finished quilt top!

Thanks to everyone who helped by donating fabric. Now I just need to figure out what to put on the back and get it quilted. I really like how it turned out.

our new found hobby

Geocaching!
Along the Jordan River
Found it!
Anna's turn to be in charge....
Found another one, this was a big one!

We love to go geocaching. So far we haven't even gone 5 miles away from our house.
We are getting good at directions and coordinates.
What a fun thing to do together as a family!

28 weeks

Here I am at 28 weeks. Now I'm in the 3rd trimester and have 12 weeks left. Where did May go? I can't believe how quickly it passed.

I'm getting more things ready. I got the carseat and stroller. We have a new crib and mattress. I bought a Moby wrap that I'm really excited to try. I have quite a few outfits. But sadly, we haven't decided on a name for the little fella.

I'm feeling great. There are bouts of heartburn and fun charlie horse type leg craps. Most nights I sleep quite well aside from the ever increasing trips to the bathroom. I feel so fortunate that I have such easy pregnancies!

I know that these next 12 weeks are going to fly by. I'm so excited to meet our new little boy!

Look what I made!

We saved and washed out a whole bunch of juice packets LAST summer for me to make into a bag. I never got around to it until today. It was pretty easy to make.
I even put a pocket in on the inside! I think this will make a pretty sweet diaper bag!
