Vacation time!

SO.....We went on a nice little vacation to Vegas and California!
We had a lot of fun seeing family and friends. The pictures can pretty much explain the trip.
First we went to Vegas and visited Adam, Annjilla, and Anwen.



Celeste and Brooklyn were there for a day too!



Then we went to Malibu to visit Austin and Sarah! We went to the beach, played games, went to dinner, met some of their friends, and had lots of fun! The beach pics were the best of course!

Eating some yummy grilled hamburgers!


Sunscreen hair baby!


Hallee w/ daddy.


Hallee w/ mommy.


I think Hallee looks really pretty here.

Oh, then we went to Venice beach and watched all the crazy people but ate some yummy food.


Then we headed down to San Diego, where we stayed with Kyle's Aunt and Uncle and their family in San Marcos. That was tons of fun too! The first day down there we went to the San Diego Zoo, where we got to see Kyle's favorite animal in the entire world. He was soooo excited, just like a little kid.


We have so many pictures of those panda bears!
Anyway, then we went to a beach in Encinitas with Kyle's old mission buddy and his wife, and this friend, Lance, who is a professional surfer, taught Kyle how to surf! They also brought a baby that Christy (hope I spelled that right) nanny's for, and she's only 2 weeks older than Hallee. So we had a lot of fun there too!




Then we spent some time with Kyle's relatives and drove back to Vegas to spend more time with Adam, Annj, and Anwen. It was a really nice and relaxing trip! And we are happy to be home!

Hallee's latest face

This is the face that Hallee makes all the time, in reaction to anything and everything, and we just can't get enough of it!

Photo session contest

So there is this contest that I am going to try to win! It's a photography contest where if you post on the blog of this fun photographer 25 times, you win a photo session with her. Marci won one time already, and the pics are so cute and fun, so I am excited about this. Her name is Melissa and she is an amazing photographer. Anyway, so go check it out and see how great she is!

Breakfast delight!

Even though it is really fun and I love getting up to a homemade breakfast by my wonderful husband, we have sort of been running out of ideas for breakfast every morning, so I thought I would see what everyone else's favorite breakfast is? Let me know....give me ideas!!! Thanks!

Toys are fun!

So we got this toy for Hallee that is amazing! She has so much fun and I have to admit, so do we. It is a great toy for her walking development as well as a temporary distraction so mommy can get things done! Anyway, enjoy.



This is a video I took with my phone, so the quality is not so good, but you can see how much fun Hallee has.

I got TAGGED!

Here are the rules of this tagging thing...

A: The rules of the game are posted at the beginning.
B: Each player answers the questions about themselves.
C: At the end of the post, the player then tags 3 people and posts their names.

How long have you been together?
We have been together for almost 3 years. May 12th 2005 was our first kiss

Who said "I Love you" first?
Kyle did, but only because I pretty much made him say it first even though he wanted me to.

Who is smarter?
Toss up. We are both smart in different areas. Me, anatomy and the body...kyle, history, politics, and law

Who Pays the Bills?
Mostly Kyle, but I used to.

Who Cooks Dinner?
Mostly me, unless it's steak or breakfast burritos

Who drives when you're in the car together?
Kyle does. I like to relax in the car.

Who is the most Stubborn?
Hard to say...we both have our moments.

Okay, now 3 random things about me?

1: Like most people know, I hate chocolate. I really do though, I am not one of those people that says they dont like it but they eat it as much as anyone else.

2: I love dancing more than anything as far as activities. I recently started taking dance again, and it's a hip hop class, and I am pretty good at it...I know it's hard to believe...Megan doing hip hop.

3: It's really really hard to let hallee look messy at all. Spit-up, snot, food, anything on her shirt, I have to clean it off or change her clothes so she looks clean and pretty.

I Tag...
Brad and Celeste, because I think they would do it, Caitlyn, because she used to do question things like this on myspace all the time, and Sarah, because I know she has a lot of free time on the computer.

Funny

It's kinda funny, because I don't really have much to say, but I feel guilty for not posting, so I have to post something. We haven't really taken any pictures lately either so....let's see...
I have been cooking a lot more lately and trying all kinds of new recipes like carrot cake, bread in a crock pot, all kinds of mexican dishes, and fun new breakfast things besides the usual. The carrot cake has been my favorite so far.

We are trying to find more things to eat for breakfast because we decided we wanted to start making breakfast in the mornings and all reading our scriptures together, so the motivation is food but the benefit is the scripture time.
I am throwing a baby shower for my friend Lucy on March 1st. I am having a lot of fun making the invitations and getting everything ready for that. It's really fun hosting showers but a tad on the expensive side. The nice thing is that we are going to hold it at or clubhouse which has a kitchen and a really big room for parties. So that will be fun.
This month is really busy with Valentine's day, Mom and Dad's anniversary, Dad's birthday, our anniversary, and Kyle's birthday...holy cow. And on top of it all I am planning a shower.
Hallee is doing really well. She is on her hands and knees know, but only going backwards. I think she will get the hang of it soon enough. I am not worried though. She is a really smart girl. Her personality has exploded lately with all kinds of new faces and expressions. Being a mom is really fun!
Anyway, that's pretty much all I have to say. I look forward to some nice romantic evenings this month, and hopefully to Hallee's crawling!
