Happy Birthday!

I celebrated my 26th birthday with my family this year. I went to dinner the night before my birthday with the my parents and the Harris family. We went to Olive Garden and had a really nice time.
On my birthday, I went to Wendover for the day with my parents. Although I didn't win any money, I had a great time. We had cake and presents that night with my family. It was a fun birthday.

Jersey meets Harely

We brought Jersey over to meet Harley for the first time on Sunday evening. We were hoping she would like him since she sometimes has the tendency to ignore other dogs. Well, she loved him! It was the cutest thing I have ever seen. They played the whole time we were visiting. Jersey tolerated being jumped on and being bitten. She would follow Harley when he wandered off. I think she is going to make a great big sister. Harley fell asleep the second he was put back with his brothers and sisters. Jersey was exhausted too!

This is Harley at 5 weeks old. I think he is even cuter now than when he was younger.

Sniffing each other...

Play time!!

This is one of my favorite pictures of the two of them

Our New Puppy

After months and months of asking and practically begging, I gave in to Trevor's requests and decided that getting a second dog wouldn't kill me. Jersey could really use a playmate. Trevor knew that all he had to do was get me to go look at puppies and we would have a second one. He was right. I fell in love with the first puppies we looked at - we put money down on an adorable beagle. After all, how can you say no to a puppy face?

Here is our baby sleeping with two of his six siblings. This picture was taken when they were about 2 weeks old. They didn't even have their eyes open yet.

Deciding on a name was really difficult for us. We finally agreed to call him Harley. It was the only name that neither of us said no to and that we both could stand. We have been to see Harley 3 times so far. This was taken on Memorial Day when he was 3 1/2 weeks old. Pictures just don't do him justice. He is much cuter in real life! He is learning to run and play. It is so cute to watch him explore.

Outside on the grass - not something he loves yet.

Harley with all of his siblings. Yes, he is the one off to the side not eating and looking lost! We bought the little genius!

A Day at the Zoo

Summer, Makenna, Sayla, and I went to the zoo for the afternoon. I love going to the zoo! We saw all the animals, ate lunch, and rode on the Merry-go-round and the train. It was the first sunny, warm day in a long time and we all enjoyed being outside. Love you Summer! Let's do it again soon!

Summer and her girls

I love the elephants. They are my favorite.

I rode the Merry-go-round with Makenna. She was so excited to be on the froggy.

SLC Marathon 5K

I ran my first 5K in the Salt Lake City Marathon today. My friend Stacie and I went together and had a blast. I am so glad I did it - next up will be a half marathon :)

Having fun and being silly

The finish line - we hung out after the race and watched the marathon and half marathon runners finish.

We cheered for Katherine when she finished the half marathon. Next year I plan on running the half marathon.

Happy Birthday Trevor!

Thursday was Trevor's 25th birthday. He is younger than me, so for two months every year, we get to be the same age :) On his birthday, we were supposed to go the Bees first game of the season, but it ended up getting canceled. Instead, we went to dinner at Texas Roadhouse and went bowling later that night. I don't have pictures from that day because my camera battery died. We came home and had brownies (because Trevor is not the biggest fan of cake) and he opened his presents. I got him a few small things (the big birthday present was the motorcycle). We decided to continue the birthday celebration in to Friday. We hung out during the day, which was really fun since we don't get a lot of time together. That night we went to the Bees game. It was really fun - we ate a lot of ballpark food, watched the Bees win their first game, and froze in the cold, windy Utah April weather.

Getting birthday love from his baby girl. She was so affectionate that day towards Trevor- it was really cute!

At the beginning of the game before it got really cold.

The start of all our snacks. I love ballpark food - I think that may be one of the reasons I like going to the games so much.

Brrrrr........by the end of the game, I was bundled up with my hood on, gloves, and wrapped in a blanket.

I love you Trevor! You are a great husband. I had a lot of fun celebrating your birthday - thanks for everything you do.

Trevor's New Baby

Trevor has been wanting a motorcycle since I have known him. I was opposed to it, being a nurse and knowing the risks involved. I finally gave in a few weeks ago. Trevor has been smiling since the day it came to our home- if only the weather were a little better so he could ride more. He had a few days of nice weather - just enough for a taste of the fun! When he gets a little better, he may be able to talk me in to going for a ride :)

Uh, how do I ride this thing? Just kidding!

Leaving for his first ride around the neighborhood. Can you see the smile on his face? He hasn't stopped smiling since...
