2 years of happiness!!

As of August 18th Aaron and I have officially been married for two wonderful years! In that short amount of time we have been to Peru and stood on the top of Machu Picchu, traveled to Cabo, Puerto Vallarta, cruised the Bahamas, stood at the southern most point in the USA in the Florida Keys, been to Vegas and California numerous times, visited Aaron's old stomping grounds in Kentucky and went to Washington DC for my first time, went to Oregon to visit family, been to an NFL game, went on an amazing backpacking river excursion with my dad, remodeled our house, grew a baby, bought two cars, got jobs together, cheered Aaron on through a season with the Blaze, spent a month in Dallas, drove through 16 states together, built a home and sold it, spent lots of weekends camping and hiking through Utah's national parks, and found tons of other activities to entertain us on a daily basis! What a great two years!

As everyone keeps telling us- our life is about to change drastically, so to celebrate this anniversary we went out to dinner and spent the night in Park City, and then woke up bright and early to tour Park City from a whole new perspective- a hot air balloon ride!

The weather was perfect, the view was amazing and the pilot didn't even notice I was 40 weeks pregnant! Phew! (Apparently there are rules against pregnant flying women...)

What a great day! It is crazy to think that we will never again spend an anniversary alone without finding a babysitter or wondering where our kids are! We are about to start a whole new world of adventure and we couldn't be more excited! I can't wait to see what the next 2 years (or 50) have in store for us!

California baby shower

My mom threw me a baby shower while we were in Cali on the 23rd! I am sure it was a lot of work and it turned out wonderful! She has a tendancy to do everything really BIG so of course there was a ton of food, cute decorations and an adorable cake! It was so fun to get together with friends and family that I hadn't seen in a long time! Thanks MOM!!!!

Thank goodness I wasn't as big as I thought I was!

Aaron came over afterwards and checked out all of our awesome new baby stuff! I think the hooded towel looks good on him, don't you?

And no trip is complete without a picture with Cameron. He is in Mexico for 9 more months but at least he still gets to be in pictures!

36 weeks...aka 9 mo pregnant!!

So our full itinerary for our trip to Cali was as follows- Drive to Roseville on Wednesday. Spent Thursday with my mom and sisters. They threw me a baby shower that night! Friday morning we went to Marissa's wedding in Tahoe, Friday night we drove to our cabin. Saturday was full of cabin adventures as was half of Sunday. Then it was a fun 10 hour drive home! Whew! What a trip! My mom took these while I was at her house. They are weird but now I don't want to hear anyone say that I haven't posted enough prego pics! Happy??

I can't flex my stomach anymore!! This is the best I can do- it looks like a pot belly alien...oh well.

This is the pregnant sexy pose...

I like to pretend I am still in shape...it makes me feel better...

Wedding and a weekend at the cabin!

July 24th, 2009 Marissa formerly known as Maggio and Joshua Whitney joined our team! The wedding was in Tahoe which gave Aaron and I an excuse to get one last road trip in before the baby! In case you can't find me in the pic to the left- I am the big pregnant one in the front!! Note to self- try not to be nine months pregnant during significant events ever again! Ris looked beautiful and the weather was perfect! What a great day!

On our way back to Utah we took a detour to our cabin for the rest of the weekend! These pics are at Enchanted falls...in the middle of Desolation Wilderness. Good name for a place to hike at 9 mo prego right? :) The babe loved it though!

Calli, Maya and my dad joined us on Saturday night ...Maya wasn't feeling so hot but we are glad she came! We had a fire, made smores, bbq'd, etc...

...and survived a canoe expedition!! We were pretty impressed with ourselves for not sinking/tipping it with so many of us in it! This trip was a perfect last get away! Now, back to the real world- less than 4 weeks to go! Wahoo!
