Birthdays, Showers, and Peach Cobbler!

I'm a little behind, but I really wanted to get these pics up! Summer is a busy time, even if you don't have big plans! We were able to enjoy some yummy cake and ice cream with grandma wood for her 91st birthday. We sure love you Grandma! We also had Auntie Julie's birthday and had some pretty good cheesecake!

 My best friend is getting married in August! Hooray! (We love you Brian) It was so fun to see so many friends at her bridal shower! He's one lucky guy! Love you Belva!

 We were also able to use our dutch oven and cook up some yummy peach cobbler with Julie and Travis! It was lots of fun and we are SO excited they live so close now! Love you guys! p.s. Don't I have such a handsome husband?! :)

Ellen's Blessing

We had a wonderful weekend with all of out family here. Ellen was blessed on Sunday and it couldn't have been more perfect. The weather was great! We started out with a 5k/10k Saturday morning and it was some good exercising! Then Steven and I were able to spend a few hours with my best friend and her fiance! It was great! Then Sunday morning came and everyone showed up and Ellen was blessed. She was sweet and peaceful and we are so grateful for the gospel. Thanks everyone for coming and making it so great! We love you!

Memorial Weekend!

We had such a great weekend! We headed to Island Park, to Bill's Island, to a fun cabin that my family has been to a few times these past few years. This was the first real outing with our new camera and it was awesome! Friday night we hung out and dipped in the hot tub. Saturday was filled with fun, we went to Mesa Falls, the Bear and Wolf Discovery Center in West Yellowstone, and got the famous Ice Cream Cone! Sunday was relaxing and snowy and we managed to watch Harry Potter! Then Monday was pack up and head home day, but not before Steven and I were able to go on a little adventure to shoot his handgun! It was so fun! Kate loved spending time with her aunts and uncles! Thanks a TON mom and dad! We love you!

We saw 3 moose on the way to the cabin in the parking loop!

 Beautiful Mesa Falls

 Mr. Wolf stalking his prey...

 Success!

 Mr. Bear: "I really want that bird feeder..."

 "Maybe if I chew the tree down..."

 Kate looking through the spyglass at the bear. (Notice one eye is closed!)

 "Man this is a lot harder than I thought..."

 "Oh if I could only reach it!"

 Grandma and Ellen

 Everyone getting food ready

 Kate LOVED these stairs and she is just so cute!

 What a sweet girl! Love you baby!

um...an update

So I have been a little busy lately with 2 kids, but I'm loving it! Here are some random pics and events that have been happening since little Ellen has arrived...and don't forget to follow Steven's rides this summer with our awesome Strava app, located on the sidebar!
We colored some eggs...

And went to the Zoo...

And ate some YUMMY cake...the only way, with our hands!

 And played in our 'tent'...

 And lounged on the couch...

 All while learning how to smile at mommy! We love our girls!

We had a Birthday...

Daddy had a birthday today! Yay! We Love You!

Welcome Ellen

We sure love this little bundle of joy! It seems she may follow in her big sister's footsteps and be a sweet and content baby! We couldn't be happier for her arrival. Kate is LOVING her "baby Ellen". She says it all the time and when we give kisses at night, or good byes, Kate is quick to remember Ellen every time! Children are amazing!
