Welcome Baby Addie!

Addilyn Elizabeth, aka Baby Addie, joined our family on September 5th, 2013 at 8:43am. 



Addie was born at Mountainview Hospital in Payson, UT. Notice the horse trailer in front of the entrance to the hospital.  We're in HICK town! :)



Our first moments together.



So happy to finally have her here with us!



Proud Daddy!

 

Welcome to the family Addie!  You were worth the wait!

Baby Shower for Addilyn

My sister Kristen hosted a baby shower for me and Addie at my Aunt Merilyn's house.  I felt so spoiled with gifts, love, and support from my friends and family.  The timing worked out perfectly and Lessley and Kayley were able to make it to the shower.  I was so happy they were there!



Look at that BELLY!

Bella LOVED helping with Avery

Every time Avery would cry, Bella would say, "Shhh, you're FINE!"  It cracked us up!



Lots of YUMMY food!



Thank you to everyone who made it!  It was great to see everyone and thank you so much for all the gifts!  Evan and I really appreciate it!

Camping

We went camping 4th of July weekend

Or I should say, we attempted to go camping. Maybe day camping is a better description of it.

We set everything up and hung out there during the day, and then it started raining and thundering like crazy that evening.. so after deciding that the storm wasn't gonna let up, we packed everything back into our cars and went out for some nice warm food :)

We had fun while it lasted though. Our campsite was right on the river, it was so peaceful. Utah is just gorgeous. It was nice to sit and take in the beauty (and the girls loved exploring all around).

We'll have to go back again soon when it's warm.

4th of July

(aka Trevor's birthday)

Trevor turned 31 this year, and he said it was harder for him than turning 30 because he's now "in his thirties". It is kinda weird to think about. Haha I love that man.

We had family and friends over for a BBQ and fireworks

The girls kept covering their ears while we lit off fireworks in the street, but they still liked watching them.

And they all loved doing sparklers. Those were a hit.

It was a fun night! Fireworks, food, and birthday goodness. It really felt like summer.

Memorial Day

We celebrated Memorial Day with a family BBQ at Evan and Nicole's place. The Sanford cousins were there too and it added to the fun. We ate tons. Everyone brought a side so there was so much food. Nothing better than good food and good company.

It was a great way to start the summer season.
