Quilt Kit Giveaway!

Hello all!  My friend is starting an online quilt shop that is set to launch on Aug 19 but her blog is up and running and she is giving away a quilt kit through a comment drawing.  All you have to do is comment on her blog and you are entered in the drawing.  Her site is not that well known yet so you have a pretty good shot at winning.  Here is a picture of the quilt, the drawing is for all the fabric and the pattern to make the quilt.  Here is the link to her blog.

Gretchen's Baby

Here are some picture's of Gretchen's sweet baby boy.  He was born today via scheduled c-section at about 10:30 am.  He measured in at 8 lbs 2 oz and 20 in. long.  Check out those cute round cheeks!  Mom and baby are both doing well, and I'm sure Gretchen will have more updates shortly.

Hot Dogs in the Canyon

We went up American Fork canyon with Jared, Amanda, their kids and Hannah last month and I am just now getting around to posting.  It was such a nice night, we roasted hot dogs and marshmallows and the kids played Indiana Jones in the trees.  We love living so close to the mountains!

Skirts

I made 4 skirts for the girls in the last couple of weeks.  I made them from two different color ways of the same fabric line with two different patterns.  One was a real pattern the other (3 tiered gathered skirt) was kind of made up. 

Bergen was being such a pill, she ran every time she saw me point the camera her way.  This was the only shot I could get of both of them together.

Rodeo

We went to the Strawberry Days rodeo in Pleasant Grove last night.  Cade and Andelin got outfitted in their cowboy clothes and looked pretty sharp!  The rodeo was great, my favorite was the wild cow milking.  There were cowboys flying everywhere.  Bergen thought there wasn't enough excitement for her so she decided to do a nosedive through the bleachers (we were 3 rows from the top).  Talk about stopping your heart. She fell at least ten feet, but aside from being scraped up and shaken she was o.k.  Who falls through the bleachers?  She stayed right on my lap until the end of the rodeo.

Check out this handsome cowboy.

Bergen the morning after.

Drum roll please.....

 

Yes we are having a girl!

Memorial Day Weekend

We wanted to go to the cabin for Memorial Day Weekend but the snow was not melted and we weren't sure if we would be able to drive in so we stayed home and had a fun weekend.  Saturday we went rock climbing with the Jensen's at the Quarry climbing gym in Provo. Sunday we had Jared and Amanda, Gretchen, Hannah and the Jensen's over for a movie outside on the fence.  We watched Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, it was maybe a little scarier than I remembered (ripping the heart from the chest...) but we had a fun time.
