Pure Goodness

So...you may have noticed that Juliette has gained a few pounds...She has...She weighs 17 lbs. 4 oz. these days! :) Oh man she's a cutie!

She was getting a bath in the sink and obviously needed a sip of water :)

We had lunch with Steven in the apple orchards at the school. It was just last year when I first started blogging, pregnant with her, Steven and I rode our bikes to the school and picked apples in the orchard for a date. It was a blast! Weird that she's enjoying the same orchards with us now.

We came home and picked some things in our garden that we planted this year in our back yard and this was one of the bigger carrots I picked.

And we picked two zucchinis this big!! I've made 4 loaves of zucchini bread with this one and have grated 11 cups (of this same zucchini) of zucchini AND I still have 1/4 of it left over!! It was HUGE!! And..I still have another one left! Lets just say our first garden has been a success! We also came back to tons of cherry tomatoes and like 4 big tomatoes growing! They're pretty tasty! We're thankful to the Roberts and the Wilsons for watering our garden for us while we were gone!

Grandmas, Grandpas & Cousins


We spent the 7 week break with my parent's and Steven's and enjoyed being able to spend time with them. Juliette was waiting for Vivienne to finish her bath. They are too cute together!


Liv is always asking to hold Juliette. It's super cute!

Brandon & Janet's Wedding

Sadly I don't have any other pictures on my camera than these pictures. We took more but they are still on my in-laws computer and we haven't received them yet so these ones will have to do. Brandon & Janet were married in the Spokane Temple this summer. I was able to decorate their cake which was fun and a little nerve wracking! :) But I loved it!
It was a hot and stressful morning/day and on the drive to the temple I realized that my dress was completely inside out!! When I got to the temple I had to go to the bathroom and change it. Darrick had been in Georgia and we thought he wasn't going to be able to come to the wedding but he surprised all of us and showed up in his military uniform! We were so excited to see him!

Summer Kickoff 2011

So...I know I haven't blogged for a...very...long time but I think the blogs that I post tonight will make up for all the ones I haven't done in the last two months. :) Towards the end of the spring semester Juliette and I would have lunch on Fridays with our friends Ashley, Maggie, and Bentley and it was a ton of fun! Sadly though, Ashley moved across the UNITED STATES from us therefore she will not be attending our Friday afternoon lunches anymore. Sad. We miss you Ash!
Then the weekend before we left to go home for the 7 week break, Steven and I took Juliette to a drive in move and we watched Cars 2! Juliette did awesome and fell asleep right before the movie started! Haha! We made a bed in the back of Brandon's little truck and snuggled up to watch it. (We thought we'd go to a kid movie because we knew if Juliette had a melt down that she wouldn't be the only one.)
