Update

Wow, i can't believe it's already been a month since i last updated this thing......i guess i don't really feel the need to anymore since no one reads it! the only reason i ever post pictures is more for my own keepsake, in case i ever decide to make my blog a book.
Anyways, the last month has been crazy! Mike and i both celebrated our 23rd birthdays! woohoo!
we went on a road trip to mt. rushmore then on to north dakota so mike and triptyn could meet all of my dad's family. we had such a good time, but it sure was nice to come home! we took tons of pics, like over 500. maybe someday soon when my internet at home is working, i will post some of them.
my little triptyn will be 11 months old on thursday....he's growing up so fast, but we love every minute of it. only a month left and he'll be ONE! i can't believe it. he keeps us on our toes and we never know what he'll do next. he did take his first few steps without holding on to anything on saturday, but nothing since then.
Hopefully summer weather will come soon so we can be outside enjoying it! i hope everyone has a great summer!

St. George

I hate surprises, but I LOVE surprising! May 7th was my best friend's graduation from Dixie. I really felt like I needed to go, not only because graduation is important, but because I haven't been down to see Deidre for like a year and a half! Mike had to work and wouldn't let me drive down by myself, so I asked my parents to come along! And, of course, I didn't tell Deidre we were coming!


Her family took her to eat at In 'n' Out before graduation. While they were enjoying their burgers, we came up behind Deidre and SURPRISE!!!! I loved seeing the look on her face....she had NO idea we were coming!




This picture didn't turn out well at all, because I had to zoom in so far.........Deidre walking through the D getting her diploma for Dental Hygiene! YAY for Deidre!!






We saw this sign at a gas station on the way to Deidre's house after graduation, we just starting laughing and had to take a picture!

Shopping at Taipan Trading on Saturday morning

SWIMMING

Triptyn was a little unsure at first, but ended up LOVING it!

We went out to dinner that night at the Brick Oven. If you're ever in St. George and haven't been there, I recommend it! Our pizza was the best I've ever had!


Triptyn loved swimming so much, we took him later that night when it wasn't quite so hot. Oh yeah, did I mention it was like 85 degrees there?!? oh my, i didn't want to come home :)

Easter 2010

We had a great Easter this year! Nothing too exciting, it was actually kind of nice to just wake up and do nothing! Triptyn had no idea what was going on, of course, but he did love his new toy!

I had to include this next picture because he's pooping! :) This is his poopy face......

Unloading his Easter basket

I hope everyone had a great Easter!
