Trip to Utah


On our way home to California Blake and I stopped in Utah to go to my roommate Brie's wedding. I got to stay with another roommate Jill and her cute family at her grandparent's house. Here is a picture of Blake and Daphne.






Lots and lots of snow on the wedding day! It was so fun to see old college buddies.




Brie looked so pretty and the whole day was great. Thanks to Jill's hubby John for dedicating the day to helping us get to the temple, luncheon, and reception.


The rest of the trip was spent shopping, visiting other friends, and catching up. We dragged these babies everywhere. They took lots of little naps on car rides. It was a lot of work getting them in and out of the car and keeping them warm!




Cafe Rio with Pleasanton friends Jordan and Jenny. I will admit it- I went to Cafe Rio twice on my trip. Gotta love the pork salad.


It was a little tricky traveling without Eric. Good thing they let me take the car seat on the plane. We got a whole row to ourselves going to and from Utah. I'm so glad I was able to make this trip. I love reconnecting with friends and wish that I could see them more often.

Blakester





Blake sleeps through the night! He goes to sleep around 9p.m. and wakes up promptly at 6a.m. It is nice having him on a predictable schedule. Lately Blake squeals to let us know he is bored with his toys/surroundings. Once I get him out of the house he stops the squealing and starts smiling and kicking his legs. He loves watching people. Every once in awhile he gives some good laughs. I'll do anything to get them- tonight he got a kick out of me saying "mmm hmm" and throwing something on the ground. I could listen to him laugh all day.

Brrrrr!




It has been pretty cold the last few days. It snowed a lot yesterday- I needed to go to the store and when I got to the car my doors were frozen shut! I kept hitting the unlock button but the doors wouldn't budge. A nice man helped me get my door open. I scraped all the ice off the windows- you needed a lot more than a credit card to scrape it all off!
