WEDDING DAY!

Casey Rae Anderson(Corey's bro) married Samantha Jane Harder on Saturday, August 28th. It was a very small wedding, we had a total of 20 people there. But, it turned out beautifully! We were in the mountains near Vernal for the wedding, and it decided to rain. We thought it would just be a little rain, but as soon as the guy started marrying them it down poured and nobody could hear what was being said. As soon as the quick ceremony was over, the rain just stopped. But, out came a beautiful, double rainbow. It was really cool! I didn't get very many pictures, but I thought I would share a few of the pictures that I did get.


The adorable cake, made by Melissa Long (Casey's cousin), she did a great job!


See the rain coming down!

FAMILY: If we have the rainy look, it's because we had been hanging out in the rain!

Cheers to weddings, I love them!

*ABBA* Normally I am not an ABBA fan, in fact I was just making fun of my eight year old sister a few weeks ago because she was jamming to the "Mamma Mia" soundtrack. Regardless, I went with my dear friend, Tammy, to a concert performed by an ABBA cover band. We had a lot of fun, and I was shocked at the amount of people there, including guys, who were dancing and singing along. I would have to say that the greatest part was watching all the people and seeing how much fun Addie was having dancing. All in all, it was really fun!

She LOVED the music, she was clapping her hands and sticking her tongue out.

*CAMPING*

For the 24th of July we celebrated just like the pioneers would have! We basically sat out in the HEAT and couldn't wait to get back to our air conditioned apartment. :) No, really we had a great time camping at Wasatch State Park in Midway, UT. We went to a campfire program the first night and learned about all the edible plants and berries within the camp. That was actually very informative and fun! We also spent some time at the kid's pond feeding the ducks, attempting to fish, and playing on the playground. We took Adelynn on her first REAL hike. She LOVED the first 1.2 miles getting to the end of our hike. The way back wasn't as pleasant, she was upset and tired by the time we made it back to camp. Not to mention, HOT! I thought I would share a few pics!

WE MADE IT! (this is where we hiked to, it was a glacier wash, that means a bunch of rocks, NOT water!)

She Loves to sit and jump on rocks.

IT'S A BOY!

We are expecting a baby boy sometime around December 1st! We went yesterday and got the 20 week ultrasound. These aren't the greatest pictures, but we're excited and wanted to share our news! We went to the Cheesecake Factory after the ultrasound to celebrate. YUMMY! We were glad to hear that everything looked great and that the baby was growing and developing right on schedule.







Babies tiny feet!


He's a BOY!

SUMMER MEMORIES!

We have been without a computer now for over two months. But, I have finally got my pictures downloaded to share with all of you, enjoy!

HAPPY MEMORIAL WEEKEND! I realize it has been almost a month since I have updated my blog. This is due to my laziness, and partly to the fact that our computer has been giving us troubles for about 3 weeks now. Anyway, I just wanted to write a quick note and let you all know that we are doing great! Corey has still been working a lot between both of his jobs. And, I have started my job as assistant apartment manager. It has actually been nice to get out of the house for a minute. I love it when Corey gets to spend one on one time with Addie, because he is so great at it. Last Monday when I got home she had taken a nap, and he had dinner on the table ready to eat. He was also going to work that night, and had packed his own lunch along with making dinner. :) We are getting ready to pack up our vanagon (hippy van) and go camping this weekend! I am very excited that it's finally going to be warm enough to go camping. Hopefully, we can get our computer up and working and I will be able to share some pictures next time I post. In the mean time, cheers to summer finally getting here!

FAMILY VACATION!!!
It seems like Corey is working so much now, that I have to keep telling myself that we just went on vacation, and I got to spend a whole week with him! But, it doesn't mean that I don't miss him when he's gone to work all night. Anyway, Addie went to bed early (8:00, is early for her), and so I thought I would share a few pictures with you from our trip to Denver. It turned out to be a relaxing vacation, because we stayed with Amy and Sterling Merrill, and they treated us very well! I posted several pictures on my facebook, so I wont post too many here. I had never been to Denver, and it was a beautiful place. They have over 200 parks in Denver, and of course the Rockies were beautiful. We went to the Aquarium, The Museum of Nature and Science, and The United States Mint! We couldn't take any pictures at the Mint, but it was cool to see how they make pennies and how much profit they make off of the state quarters, and presidental dollars. It was all very interesting. We even got a lesson on how NOT to park in Denver. Yes, we got a parking ticket (one more parking ticket I will never pay). :)




Addie got her face painted with Ariel!


Corey has a thing for jelly fish, he could watch them all day.


Addie taught herself how to play Amy's guitar.



We saw a REAL, dead, wrapped up Mummy!


We went shopping at the LARGEST REI I have ever seen (Corey was excited).


Sterling, Addie, and Amy. Addie basically climbed all over these guys the whole time.


The Mountains were beautiful!



Addie was scared of the fake ape.
It made me laugh!
