May 2009

May was such a great month full of lots of fun and excitement. We finally got all moved in and were ready to have company! Kelsey and Melissa flew in from Milwaukee and Texas and then Mom and Dad came down with Kerri from Montana. It was so good to be with all of my sisters again and as always, we had a great time. A great picture on a beautiful spring day - Melissa was our photographer.

This was the first time meeting our little cousin and nephew, Landon. He was so cute and we all just adored him - and we love Aunt Kelsey!



I love this picture Melissa took. When she sent it to me she sent it with a caption that said, "Hey, don't I know you from somewhere?" They were so cute together and were both about the same size, even though Mckenna is a year older. She's actually wearing one of Landon's outfits because while we were shopping she spilled a whole water bottle on her and I didn't have any extra outfits. We thought she looked pretty good in blue, though! :)
After eating Mckenna's favorite meal - spaghetti or "lulu" (noodles).

Another great picture with Aunt Kelsey! We were so happy to have her come visit us.

Eating at our all time favorite spot, "Zupas". YUM!

Finally a picture with all of us together!

Jason's 28th Birthday!!

My family was here to celebrate Jason's birthday with us and we had a great day. We woke up and got french toast from Kneader's, Jason went golfing with my Dad and Dave, and then went to work in the afternoon. But the party didn't end there!

We had a BBQ at our house with most of my family and Jason's brother and his family. Grilling up some yummy burgers.

We had quite the house full but loved having everyone come over, and the room to accomodate everyone!

Blowing out 28 candles! Wow!

Mckenna enjoying some cake with Aunt Kerri.

It was kind of a crazy day but it was so fun to celebrate another birthday with Jason. He is my very best friend and I truly don't know what I would do without him. Thanks for being born, honey! :)

The Oquirrh Mountain Temple Open House

Jason's company did some work on the temple so we were able to get a special VIP tour! It was great to go there with my family, too. Mckenna and Jason had fun taking some pictures outside.

"I Love to See the Temple" - Mckenna's face in this picture is hilarious. She makes a pirate face anytime it's bright out, but it turns out more like a scowl.

With my sisters and Mom - I love them!

The Bees GameThis was our last "hoorah" for May. We have kind of made this a yearly tradition and go right around Jason's and Michael's birthday since they are both in May.

Mckenna wasn't quite sure what to think of the Bee mascot. It was a great ball game and a fun way to kick off the summer!
