Baby Ivy was blessed today. She is already getting big.

Ocean and I drove the Alpine loop today after the blessing. It was so beautiful, this picture totally doesn't do the canyon justice. It was amazing...a lot of people thought so. I counted 264 cars going the different direction I was going. There were TONS of people up the canyon.
We went to the zoo this past week with the cousins. Ocean has found her independent side and she didn't want to follow the group or sit in the stroller. So for most of the day Ocean and I hung out by the elephants. She also loved playing in this water.
Ocean has been going through all of our hats. This is her favorite one to wear around the house.

Another great BYU tailgating Saturday. Steak and Chicken "bobs"

Ocean and Curtis playing an intense game of football

great friends to spend the afternoon with

I got to go to the game with dad and Curtis stayed with Ocean. What a great day.

I promised Curtis this year that at the BYU home games we could tailgate as a family. I didn't really know if I would like it or not, because I don't get to go to the games. But oddly enough everyone had a great time. We made some really great food, Curtis attempted to help me throw a football better, and Ocean watched some kids next to us play football and than ran after them. It was a great afternoon. Since we all had a good time this is something that we will continue to do soooo all of you cougar fans if you want something to do before the home games come and find us and eat some food.

We went to the State Fair this past week and had a great time. Ocean loved to be able to be so close to the animals. The highlight for me was watching her pet the calf. Both Ocean and the calf were pretty nervous of each other. I am pretty sure that the huge pig was dead and they just put the body there.

Last night was the yearly patient appreciation night for Stonehaven Dental. We rented out the Legacy Center and everyone was swimming and rock climbing. They rented a snow cone machine and that was a huge hit. Curtis and Nate did a great job getting the whole thing together. Everyone had a great time.

Curtis bought all of the prizes and we had a drawing that night. Everyone really wanted to get the big screen t.v. The person who won it was a fourteen year old girl!! Her family has been patients for awhile. Her mom dropped her and her friend off and she came back to get them and she had won. Curtis dropped the t.v. off at their house and said that all they had was a 13' t.v. They were so thrilled.
Ocean wasn't to sure what to think about swimming when she should have been sleeping. Curtis was the only one who could get her to go in the water.

Sadly Ocean got worst dressed award for the night. I could find any of the swimsuit pieces that went together and to top it off she had purple shoes. Ema would also like anyone who sees this pic to notice her ripped stomach. I guess 1000 crunches a night does pay off.

Curtis is really excited that our kids will be Tigers. Some of the kids in his sunday school class are on the football team and cheer team and they asked us to come to their game. It was a lot of fun. We even made it to the tail gate party before and a kid in Curtis' class made us the best steak I have ever had. SORRY KENNY (i can get you his recipe).

Ocean loved watching the cheerleaders and stomping around and dancing. She also thought it was fun to bat her eyes at all the old football players we sat next to.

This was my very first Orem high football game I have ever been to....even though I went to Orem high.
