4th of July

Taylor and I decided to take a little road trip up to St. George for the 4th of July weekend. On Friday the fourth, we went to the Sound of Music at the Tuacahn Theater, the theater is outside, built into the side of the canyon. The show was great, and we were very impressed with the actors. After The Sound of Music was over – the theater put on a firework show.

Saturday was started by eating at one of my favorite breakfast restaurants – Cracker Barrel! During the day, we enjoyed a little St. George church history sight seeing, shopping, and swimming. Taylor brought our RC cars which we took to a dirt lot and ran around. I accidentally let one of the cars go out of range from the controller and it just kept going, Taylor was a good sport about running a mile to retrieve the car. That night we enjoyed the most amazing Thai/Sushi restaurant. We also got some practice using Taylor’s new camera lens.

Baby Shower

During the last week in June I was able to take some time off from work to fly home and see my family. While I was home my Mom threw me an awesome baby shower! We got a ton of cute clothes, blankets, and other baby needs. It was so fun to sit around with family and friends and catch up, eat yummy food, and of course open cute pink presents!

Thanks again Mom and Hannah for a fun shower!

Let's Start at the Very Beginning...(I hear its a very good place to start)

Not to sound totally cliché – but after much persuasion from family and friends, I broke down and started a blog! Coming soon, we hope that most of this blog will be centered around pictures of our future daughter.

Let me start by sharing a little bit about us; Taylor and I have been married for almost a year and a half – time sure does fly when you are having fun. If you are looking for some real fun - you can check out Taylor's proposal on youtube.com - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAPDixc869g. During this time we purchased our first home here in Vegas, which we love! Currently, Taylor and I work for Freeman. Taylor is the Regional IT manager, and I work in the Sales Department. It has been enjoyable to drive to work and grab lunch together. Soon, I plan to do the stay at home mom thing, hooray! We are expecting the birth of our first child September 20th (hopefully a little sooner!) We found out that we are having a girl, and have decided on the name – Heidi. We imagine that she is going to be a red head like her Daddy. (Can't you just picture a red head named Heidi?) We are getting excited for her big arrival. When we are not at work, Taylor and I enjoy relaxing, taking short trips, mountain biking, and playing the occasional video game.

Taylor...I did it!

AREN'T YOU PROUD!
