park swings

Sundays are always such long days. So after church and Jacksons nap we decided to get out on a walk and head to the park. We had so much fun watching him play on all the toys. I believe his favorite would have to be the swings, and I would have to agree they are my favorite as well. When was the last time you (as an adult) got on a swing and went so high you lost your stomach? It is so fun; I was on my swing, Jackson on his, the amazing Utah mountains right in front of us, the crisp spring air... It was so refreshing.

Just like old times...

Steph and Justin were in town this week from Maryland. It was so fun to see them and hear about their interesting experience in dental school thus far. Above is a picture of Camille, Steph, and obviously myself. We were all roomates in Provo before I was married. In fact, if not for these two beautiful girls above I would have never met Scott. Thanks girls!

His very own apple!

Tonight, I was was eating an apple and Jackson kept trying to steal it from me. So I peeled him his own and gave him the entire apple. He LOVED it! He held it with both hands as he walked around the house. Every once in a while he would hold the apple to his mouth and do his best to fit his small mouth around it and get the slightest bit of apple in. If I ever attempted to take it from him, he would burst into tears (see the small tear just below his eye). It kept him entertained for a long time and was so fun to watch!

I love St. George

Wow! It has really been a crazy couple of weeks. Last weekend we had Brad and Jaime in town with us. They are moving to Utah and were up looking for a place to live. They found one! They will be moving the first week of April and we can't hardly wait.
Unfortunately that same weekend I got terribly sick... yuck! It started out with the worst chest and head cold and was followed by a 5 day body flu. Luckily I have a mother that lives somewhat close by, and she came and took care of me... and Jackson, he was so happy to have someone to play with him.
The most exciting news! Scott and I are headed to St. George this weekend. And yes, you read correctly, there will be no Jackson. Just the two of us. The best mother-in-law in the world came in to town so that she could watch her "sweet" little grandson and we could have a little get-a-way. I have been looking forward to this weekend for so long! I love St. George. I have so many memories there and it always screams vacation for me. SG - here we come!
