Firm Retreat!

What a fun and relaxing weekend! Jasons firm had a firm retreat up in Deer Valley(by Park City) and we got to leave the kiddies at home with the inlaws(they are the best). I don't know when the last time we had a couple nights without kids, let a lone even one night without kids, so I was really looking forward to it. Especially now that I'm expecting #4, it will be a very nice break.
We drove up to Park City on Thursday night and met up with a bunch of Jasons coworkers for a really nice dinner, which was delicious. Then on Friday, Jason went golfing while I got to enjoy a great massage at the spa. It was only supposed to be like 25 min and they bumped it up to 50 min, so I didn't complain at all. They spa was so incredibly nice, it was like one straight out of the movies, so beautiful and relaxing. I loved every minute of it.
Then off to the outlets I went. I spent 5-6 hours just shopping by myself, although it wasn't just for myself of course. It was so nice to not have to stop and change diapers, wipe faces, feed kids, etc. It was great just going on my own schedule, although I really needed that massage at the end of the day, my feet were incredibly sore. I got some great deals and had a ton of fun.
Friday evening the firm had a nice dinner for everyone and then we just mingled with others and I got to know some of the spouses really well.
Then here I am now, Saturday morning I went to breakfast and now I'm relaxing why'll Jason is at meetings(ha ha). I'm not quite ready for my vacation to be over, so maybe we won't go home for a few more days!
It really has been a great weekend! Thank you Durham, Jones, and Pinegar law firm!

Bitter Sweet!

As a few of you know, I got released from my Church calling today. I was serving as the Second Counselor in the Relief Society in our ward for the past two years. I knew that this was coming as it was time to switch things up, but I was still a bit emotional today. I have absolutely loved this calling and getting to know the sisters in our ward and neighbors. What a wonderful experience it has been serving with the sisters in our ward and presidency. It was funny because I was telling my kids about me getting released and Henry was sooo excited that I wouldn't have meetings anymore, he loves it when I'm home I guess. Too cute!

I was gone pretty much all of July, so I will update my blog with pictures this week, life has been crazy. But I wanted to take the opportunity under this title of 'Bitter Sweet' to announce that we are Expecting #4 child on January 26th!

Don't get me wrong, I am really excited, and this was planned, it's just that some days I go crazy with the three that I have, so I hope that I will be able to handle 4 kids and a husband! I have no idea how people have tons of kids, I'm kind of hoping that this will be a boy so I can be done, but I would for sure be happy with a girl too.

Right now I'm 15 weeks along, so we will be able to find out in a few weeks what the sex of the baby is. I really didn't want to find out but now we need to do a lot of rearranging in the house so I guess that it will be a good thing!

I've been feeling pretty good for the most part, just need to stuff my face with food constantly. If I'm hungry, then stay out of my way because I get mean=) I am actually enemic this pregnancy, so I have to take extra iron pills. I get really light headed and need to drink a lot though. My kids keep on telling me that my tummy is getting bigger all the time. What a great reminder!

Crazy Hair!

This is what Morgan looked like after nursery today! I thought maybe she had put her finger in a plug or something. She looked pretty rough, although she absolutely loves nursery
Our little Morgan has always been so innocent, although lately she thinks she can outsmart us by climbing out of her climb while she is supposed to be sleeping. Last night I went in to check on her and couldn't find her anywhere, so I went down the hall to see if I could hear her and it was quiet. When I came back to her room I could hear a giggle, and she crawled out from under her crib. What a STINKER!!! How can you get mad at a cute little crazy haired girl like that?
So we are trying to figure out a new bed situation for the girls room now! In the meantime we are constantly putting Morgan back in her bed over and over again!

Elder Folsom!

What a great day! My cute little cousin(not so little anymore) Elder Johnny Folsom who was just like a little brother to me got home from his mission today. He served in the Guadalajara Mexico Mission. We were all so excited to be able to go to the airport and welcome him home. The kids love Johnny, but were being shy when they finally saw him. We made some cute little posters! I sure love this kid. It was great seeing him, although I felt bad for him because I'm sure that he was pretty overwhelmed. The English language was a bit confusing to him because it had been so long since he spoke it frequently.

Elder Folsoms cute little family!

Raging Waters!

Katelyn had a dance performance at 'Raging Waters' so we made a family outing of it. The kids had a blast with their friends and going on the slides. Although, I think the adults just may have had a little more fun then the kids this time.
They were having a splash contest so we made the guys enter (Jason, Shane and Steve) it, and they all got 2 free park passes so us girls (Kristina and I) thought why not, but I guess our splash wasn't quite as big as the guys because we just got free ice cream sandwiches. But hey it was worth the fun!

Me trying to make a big splash!

Kindergarten Graduation!

Our big girl is moving on to bigger and better things, and longer days of school next year. I don't know what I'm going to do without her around to help out. Katelyn and a few of her friends that were in her class this year.

Katelyn had the best teacher ever, Mrs. Wells was so much fun, the kids absolutely loved her!
They sang a few songs and performed for the parents, it was so cute and they did a great job.

Preschool Program!

Henry is officially done with his first year of preschool. He loves Ms. Amy, she is the best teacher ever. He was so excited for us to come and watch him sing some cute little songs. He did a great job too. He participated really well, it was cute!
