Exciting Stuff

Some exciting things have happened this weekend. Cj's brother Brian and his fiance Cat graduated! They are both now M.D's. How awesome is that? I think it's pretty cool to have 2 doctors in the family. :)

Yesterday our nephew Jack was born! I'm so sad I can't meet him for awhile. But we are really excited. Mom is doing good, and they are already home from the hospital. Jack was 7-11 lbs. Molly seems to be a good big sister so far. 

So precious. 

Tomorrow is Cj's first day as a full time employee. That's right, FULL TIME! Cj got offered full time at Nuskin, with benefits. We are pretty excited. He might not be as excited to work more hours, and losing all his sick hours. But you need to grow up someday I guess. We are ecstatic for this opportunity he has to work full time. Nuskin has been an awesome company for him to work for. 

We were able to skype with Elder Standefer last Sunday for Mother's Day. He is doing really good! He  is really happy to be where he's at, and meeting a lot of new people. It was so nice to just see his face, and make sure he's doing ok. My dad was able to leave work for 30 minutes to come and talk to him too. Some pictures from Elder Standefer's mission.

As you can see he's still himself, being a little daredevil on his P-days.

Mother's Day skype. Isn't he so handsome? I miss my little brother.

I am lucky enough to be going on a little vacation the end of this month! I am going to visit Jen in San Francisco! I am staying for 10 whole day, by myself! Cj is really jealous, but with his new position at work, he's unable to take vacation time until October. :( We'll see how my navigation will be all by myself in SF. 

Pictures of life lately..

Can you believe Haley only has 3 more months left?!  

Cj went to Vegas a couple weekends ago for a guys trip. Olive and I spent some quality time together. We walked to the park one day and she posed the whole time. 

Cj playing Xbox.

Sonic happy hour! 

Got a ghetto hotel in SLC to stay the night so we could see a band play in a venue.  

Look at how young we were! So crazy. It's fun to look through old pictures though to see how much we've grown.

Walk at Bridal Veil.

"Olive, where's Corbin?" That was her face.

Fun girls day with Makel and her sweet daughter Knightley!

Babysat my friends little guy Krew. He walked Olive the whole way to the park and back home. Super cute.

Jonas is Olive's best friend.

Now for some video's..

Chicken's are so weird. But it was fun to just lay in the grass and watch them do their thing in the dirt.

Cj's headband after he ran to Bridal Veil falls. He's nuts.

This is how we saute onions in our house.

One day we went to D.I. and Cj found more Utah Jazz hats. Then he decided to put them all in my china hutch, for display! Help me!

Our landlord went on a trip and was worried her cat got out of the house. She had us make sure he was still in there, and ok. He is so big, and fluffy!

Go ol' Simon.

Cj's boss gave him 2 jazz tickets a couple weeks ago. He picked me to go with him, we sat 16th row. It was so fun to sit that close to the players. Cj was in heaven!! Too bad Steve Nash traded, or I would've been in heaven too.

I was able to join in on some fun with my friend Krystal and go to the festival of colors. It was my first year going. It was a lot of fun. If you don't know what the festival of colors is, check it out HERE.

After

The pink will NOT come out of my hair. My hair is still pink on top, and it's been almost 2 weeks. Haha

My baby Jonas turned one on Thursday. Melissa was nice enough and invited us over from some homemade pizza, and birthday fun. I can't believe a whole year has gone by.

Jonas looking at his present.

Jonas a couple days old to a year!

March Birthdays

There are lots of birthday's in March. My sister Haley had her big 21st birthday this year! She is 21 and expecting her little baby girl the beginning of August. My mom and I were able to drive down to West Jordan for the day (Where she lives). We took her out to lunch and some shopping. When we took her home, Tim had music playing, her presents all in line and a some cake all ready for her. It was really sweet.

Then Cj turned the big 25 on the 25th of March. So crazy he's 25! It sounds so old, but I'm following him slowly in age. We went to Salt Lake for some hotel fun. We were able to go out and eat some good food. I tried to take him shopping, but he's so picky with everything!

My food was so good! We went to a place called "The Green Pig". So yummy! 

We went shopping downtown, it was freezing!!

We had a lot of fun. Even though all he wanted to do was watch sports! At least I was able to get a nap in. ;)

I'm so happy to have Cj in my life, especially as my husband. I just don't like getting old!!

 I had to work on Cj's actual birthday, but I decorated the house for when he got home from work. 

Cj opening his gifts. He got a lot of running stuff, and socks and underwear. That's what you get when you get older right?
