We're back!

Did you miss us? Sorry for the lack of posting (technically, it's Greg's turn to post, but I don't want to get any more irate comments or emails about my deficiencies as a blogger). These past few weeks have flown by. I can't believe I am 27 weeks pregnant! I am feeling really good so far, and love that I can feel the baby moving around on a regular basis. I'm not crazy about this picture, but I've been promising a belly shot for a few months now. It was taken before we went to Utah, so I was about 25 weeks. It looks like I'm missing a foot, but I promise, I still have
two feet : )We had a great trip out to Utah a few weeks ago. Greg's family had all sorts of fun stuff planned for us while we were visiting. We spent a day at Utah Lake wakeboarding, skiing, and tubing.

Here is Greg driving the boat
and wakeboarding.

This is our cutie nephew Daniel who thought riding on the boat was pretty cool.

This is our other super cute nephew Kenton. He liked the boat too, but took a little nap to recharge his batteries.





Here he is, well-rested and ready to drive the boat for us.



The next day we went to American Fork Canyon to the Tibble Fork Reservoir to fish, canoe, and cook out. Mike, Greg's brother, was the only one who had any luck fishing. While we were there, a woman was impaled on a tree branch! Greg was asked to help out until EMS arrived, and the local news stations interviewed his sister in law, Mandee, and his dad, Terry. They both were on the news that night. They don't have those clips available online anymore, but in this clip, you can see the back of Greg-he's wearing a grey shirt with maroon piping around the collar.

During our visit, Adrienne, Greg's sister, had a baby shower for me! It was so much fun, and I got to visit with so many great family members. We got some really cute baby things-everything is so adorable and little. I can't wait until he is here!

Here are a few pics from my shower. This is the diaper cake Adrienne made-so fun!
Some of my family that came to visit-I love y'all!

We also got to go to the Alpine Slides while we were visiting. They were not recommended for pregnant women, so I sat out and took some pictures. Unfortunately, Terry's sled ran out of steam towards the end, but he got to take another ride for free!

It was hard coming back home to real life after all of the fun we had! We are looking forward to seeing everyone again once the baby is born. We'll update again soon-I promise!

I was so jealous when Eric IM'd me to brag about how they got to see you and Greg. I'm glad you had so much fun in Utah and I hope that you're feeling well! Love ya!
