Congratulations Jack!

So, I'm a little late in posting this.. but Jack finished his first semester at BYU-Idaho with all A's and a 3.8 GPA! I am so proud of him, so I had to brag a little!! I love you so much babe, great job! Keep up the good work!

The Last "Sunday Night Shenanigan"

This is a little late, but we hope everyone had a wonderful Easter! The Easter Bunny brought us lots of sweet treats :] and then we were able to go to our friend's Jesse and Bree Dexter's house for their going-away party. Every Sunday, we've had Sunday Night Shenanigan's (thus the title up there) and every Monday we'd have dinner together and play cards. Jesse and Bree will be moving on the 25th and they are sure going to be missed!! I'm sure they will be back to visit quite a bit, but Jesse got into school in Twin Falls, so they're going to be living a few hours away. We're really excited for them to begin this new chapter in their lives! Good luck, Jesse and Bree!

Our awesome Easter baskets!

On a side note, 28 more days!!!! I can't believe we're getting so close!!!!

40 MORE DAYS!!

We're just really excited! :]

A Good Weekend for a Basketball Game

Back in January, I bought Jack tickets to see the Utah Jazz play the Phoenix Suns. We took Saturday and Sunday off this weekend and fled Rexburg, Idaho to watch our two favorite NBA teams play each other. It was one of our favorite adventures since we got married, not only because it was our first live NBA game, but because we've both been working pretty hard and really needed a BREAK! Ha! Here are a few pictures of some fun things we did!

We got to hang out with Thomas, Jennive, Daniel, and Mason at the cabin!

Played some pool, of course!

This is the new flooring at the cabin, it turned out very good!

Right before the game (we like this shirt because I look really pregnant! Haha.)

We got off at 2am the night before, then left for Utah at 5am.....

Shaq shooting free-throws.

Steve Nash and Deron Williams!

The final score... after it went into overtime!!

We also went to see Monsters Vs. Aliens in IMAX 3-D! It was super cute!!

I didn't post the pictures of Chick Fila, Five Guys, and Chipotle, but we ate really well in Utah! Not to mention Daniel and Jennive cooking up an awesome breakfast at the cabin (Thanks y'all!) It was such a fun weekend, even with the blizzard (and of course the only shoes I took down were flip-flops!). It was hard to come back to work and school, but we had an amazing time! We'd been looking forward to this weekend and I'm glad I got to do some nice things for Jack because he's such a hard-working guy, but he always finds time to make me feel special! I love being married to my best friend, we always have so much fun together!

32 down, about 8 to go!

I'll be 32 weeks pregnant on Saturday, so I finally took a belly picture in Leighton's room. ENJOY! (And not to brag, but I'm excited to say I'm still wearing all of my pre-pregnancy jeans!)

I have the BEST husband!

The other night my back was hurting really bad and I couldn't sleep, so Jack stayed up and did our entire kitchen floor in one night. I have to post the before and after pictures because it's amazing! He has really done so much to our house since we bought it! I love him so much, he always goes out of his way to make things nice for me. I kept forgetting about it yesterday and when I'd get home it was like a whole new surprise to see the new floor when I walked into the house! I absolutely love it! I have the BEST HUSBAND EVER!

Before: (Circa 1970 - hahaha!)


The masterpiece:

We're just so excited!!

We can see our DRIVEWAY today!! And we haven't seen it in months!! Haha, everyone who has lived in Idaho knows this is a glorious day!
And most of you know I was being tested (over and over) for gestational diabetes this week because it's common in my family. I had to drink(or CHUG) the most disgusting drink ever.. a few times.. and have my finger poked on numerous occasions, but they think everything is looking okay. I just have to keep trying to eat less sugar because I feel so sick afterwards! I still haven't gained any weight, so I was pretty excited to be over 6 months pregnant and still in my regular jeans :] Leighton is looking great at 28 weeks and we're still working to finish the nursery so I can get those pictures on here! We found some really cute Tinkerbell things in BYU-I Bookstore to go on her shelves. I'm kind of the Peter Pan one in the family, so it works just perfectly! We can't wait till she's old enough to be Tinkerbell and Minnie Mouse for Halloweens.... but mostly we just can't wait for her to get here! We love her so much already!!
Well, hopefully I'll have pictures for my next post.. but Jack and I are alive and kicking.. just not as much kicking as Leighton is lately! Hope everyone has a fun, safe weekend!
