One Year Old!

Well, McKaylee made it, the big ol' #1! I can't believe how quickly the year has gone. To celebrate we invited some family and friends to the park for cake and ice cream. It was a bit more chilly than I wanted it to be, but still a fun time.

Here's McKaylee eyeing the cakes before the party. Thanks so much Maria for making these beautiful and awesome cakes!!!

And of course, enjoying the cake! Doesn't she just look happy?



Thanks everyone for coming to help celebrate! It was a perfect first birthday.

Well, hello there!

Yes, it has once again been a very long time since I updated the blog. So here's a synopsis of the last few months or so!

Trevor graduated from the University of Utah with a BA in International Studies and a minor in Italian on May 7, 2011



On April 16th I ran the Salt Lake City Marathon with my sister Natalie and my brother Brian. We all finished!



In late April we took a trip to Southern Utah. We visited Zion's, Bryce, Grand Staircase Escalante and Capitol Reef National Parks. It was beautiful down there and so much fun to get away for a couple of days.
McKaylee liked the squirrels.
The river was flowing so high! It was scary.

And here are a few other random pictures of what we've been up to.
