Last weekend my friends had a shower for me. It was a lot of fun and exciting to get things for the baby. I should have taken more pictures. The decorations were so cute.


I am looking extra chubby lately but haven't posted any belly shots so... also, note the awkwardness of these photos. Yikes.

On father's day we went to the Jewell's for lunch. We walked down to the pasture and brought the horses back to the house. Fun afternoon walk.



Later we went to my parents for dinner and some games. It was a very fun father's day. I always love spending time with our families.

Memorial Weekend

We had such a fun weekend. On Friday my brother got married. I was lame and forgot to take my camera. My sister gave me a few of her pictures but unfortunately none of Riley and Ashley. She looked so pretty and Riley was handsome. It was such a good day, here's a picture from when they were dating.

My sister's husband Dave, Riley, and Mike at the reception

We went and saw the second Night at the Museum after the reception with my sister and her husband that night. It was really cute. Saturday we just hung out and got some things done. Sunday we went up to Bear Lake to spend the day with Mike's family.

Yesterday we went to Hogle Zoo. I guess we are such kids cause we love the zoo. It was such a nice day and it was really fun.




After the zoo Mike golfed at Bonneville golf course, I attempted but wasn't too successful, we had a Bbq with my family later, and went bowling with Dave and Hayley. It was such a fun weekend we were spoiled and had a hard time going back to work today.

Finally

So, my parents gave us a grill for Christmas but we have been waiting to set it up until there was some warm weather. Well, this past week it was warm enough. We had some steak and a little picnic. I love the sunshine and am so excited for summer. Thanks parents.

Easter Fun!!

I finally got some time off of work so we were able to do some fun things last weekend. First, we colored eggs

Then on Saturday we gave each other our Easter baskets since we weren't going to be home on Sunday. Mike got one for baby. It was really cute. Mike also got me an Easter lily.


We went to baby animal days at the heritage center. And got our copy of Bolt signed by the guy that played Rhino the hampster. Got to hang out with our families. We had an Easter egg hunt with the Jewells and flew kites with the nephews. Then went to my grandma's house for dinner. It was a very fun Easter.

Then, on Monday me and my mom and sister went to Park City to get some clothes for the baby at the outlets. My mom and sister are so cute and helped me spoil him. The pictures don't do the clothes much justice but take my word for it they are all so cute.

IT'S A.......

Yesterday we had a doctors appointment and were shocked and so excited to find out we are having a boy!!



Mike bought the little sweater vest outfit. Look close the pants have pin stripes. So cute. Like father like son. My parents gave us the book and my cute sister gave us the other outfit and booties. Got to love families. Our families have been so great so far and I'm sure will continue to be amazing. We love you guys. We were so excited to find out everything is going great. He is a very healthy little guy.

6 DAYS

And the countdown begins. 6 days till we find out if we are having a boy or girl. I can hardly wait.

Trip to Idaho

  Rexburg Temple

We went up to Rexburg for the weekend to spend some time with Mike's mission buddy and his wife. We went to dinner on Friday night and played The Office trivia game. Mike won of course, he memorizes movies so easily. On saturday we did a session in the Rexburg temple. It was so pretty. We played some playstation, went to a movie, and had a good time with friends. Thanks Jonathan and Melissa for the fun weekend.  

So, Mike got his first acceptance letter for law school to the University of Pacific McGeorge in Sacramento. But, the good news is he also got a scholarship. He is amazing. It's only our first offer of admission so we wont accept it just yet. We are going to wait and see what happens with his other schools. Just thought I would let everyone know.  

It's true!

So, we are going to be parents. I had my first doctors appointment today and it was amazing. They did an ultrasound and the baby was stretching its arms and legs out it was so cute. My doctor said it is very photogenic and was showing off. I am twelve weeks along and due July 24. I haven't really felt sick at all(sorry to all you sick mommies.) We are so excited and anxious to find out the sex. The pictures are a little small but still way cute. At least we think so.

Mustachio

Taylor made me shave my 'stache today... Travesty!  I thought about growing it out and applying for a mall security job, but it looks like that isn't going to pan out for me :( Too bad.  Actually, I'm just posting this to see Taylor's reaction...

LSAT

So, on December 6th Mike took the LSAT. (law school admissions test) I had to ask so i thought some of you might wonder. They told him he would get his score back on January 5th but, it came today. YAY!!! And he did so good. He is in the 86th percentile. So now he starts applying and we will probably know by February. 

Christmas

Christmas Eve we went to my parents. While we were waiting for Riley to get home from work we obviously had to watch the grinch. (A Hedin family tradition) We had dinner and then did presents. So much fun I have such a cool family. 

poppin a little bubbly... :)

My mom did such a good job with the table decorations and the dinner. It was so good and looked really cute. 

On Christmas we went to the Jewells. And got spoiled again. We have great families. We got to hang out with the nephews and be lazy. It started snowing really bad so we ended up spending the night. (Thanks Doug and Tonya) we woke up to a ton of snow and it took almost two hours to get our car out. 

Overall it was such a fun weekend. We enjoyed our time off and went to a few movies. We are lucky to have such amazing families. Hope everyone had a good Christmas. 

Christmas Time

This year we spent the sunday before Christmas at my grandma Shelton's. I have a lot of little cousins on my mom's side and it was fun to see them get so excited about their presents. We really missed grandpa, it wasn't nearly as fun without him. I love spending time with my family they are the greatest.

Dark Knight=Long Night

So, most of your husbands probably like The Dark Knight. But how many went to Best Buy at midnight to buy it and then insist on coming home and staying up till two thirty watching it?

Well that is what Mike did. I went with him to get it but could not talk myself into staying up that late. It's funny cause we had no problem staying up late when we were dating. It must be a married thing to go to bed early. 

 

Christmas

We have a Christmas tradition of getting a real tree every year. We usually try to get the one that is the most bear that we know nobody will want. We add all of our decorations and it usually turns out looking like a cute Charlie Brown tree :) 

Smartest Husband

So, i new that I was marrying an incredibly smart guy but, i didn't realize just how smart and motivated he actually was. Mike turned in a final paper and this is what his teacher had to say, " I always supposed you could rival with the best students in the program and in this case you proved it." What a stud. He is so good at the things he does. Sometimes it's annoying cause he seems to be good at almost anything. Anyway, he will be so embarrassed if he sees this. But i am just so proud of him. :)  

We finally did something to post about! We went to Tucanos for dinner and then to a Jazz game, for an early birthday present. Thanks Mike. The Jazz won by 12 and it was so much fun. We saw those cute old people walking in with their matching jackets and had to take a picture. We also found those tattoos at our house from a game we went to last year. I thought the picture of Korver looked funny. Like he was raising his hand to ask a question. :)

The Jewells

We got married on January 8th. We are living in logan and going to school. Mike will graduate in the spring and then next August we will be off to law school. ?(Hopefully somewhere cool!)
