{Denver}

Justin started his training for American Family. So Briggs and I are going to come as much as possible. Briggs flew on an airplane for his first time. He did so good which was nice cause it was hard flying separate from Justin. And right as we were landing he fell asleep.






Watching Baby Einsteins.





Hanging out in his own seat.





Sound asleep.






His ride on the way to our room.

During the day Justin is in training so we just hang out, go swimming, etc. Briggs loves the hotel room cause it's all new for him to explore. He learned how to flush the toilet, unroll the tp, and open the front door all by himself. He loves this cabinet by the kitchenette and plays peek a boo in it.





We are having alot of fun just being away and enjoying eachother. At nights we go find a new place to eat and something fun to do. Last night we went to a place Justin remembers going to when he was younger and used to come out here for soccer. It's just like the Mayan back home except alot older.












We had fun. Briggs didn't know what to think of it all and wanted to swim with the divers. Were loving the opportunity to be out here together and having lots of fun!

{Park City}

We went and stayed in Park City on memorial weekend. My parents, Abe Marci and Zander, and Andy all went up with us. We usually stay at the same place everytime we go up, but they were full so we stayed at the Westgate Resort. It's located right at the base of the Canyons. I'm so glad our other choice was full because this exceeded our expectations. Online I booked a two bedroom condo and when we arrived we had the presidential suite. It was so nice. So we all decided instead of going out to dinner and shopping we'd spend as much time in the room as possible. Other than a quick trip to the grocery store and swimming we were in the room the rest of the time. I'd highly reccomend this hotel. It was such a relaxing stay. We just played games, watched movies, and took the little ones swimming for the first time!! (and ate alot too!) Briggs wasn't completely comfortable in the pool, but he liked it. Good thing Aunt Marsha is a swim coach. Z on the other hand was a fish. It was so fun watching these two. Having kids and getting to experience things with them, even something as simple as swimming, makes it so much fun! We had such a fun time and we were in good company! We can't wait for more summer fun!!

{Much Needed Update}

I'm seriously the worst at this blogging thing, but this is the start of my attempt to be much better. I'll update you guys with a little of what's gone on since the last post.

Briggs is almost nine months old. It's so crazy how time flies. If only pregnancy went that quick.. We haven't had a check up since six months but he was 75% in weight and 95% in height. Just over the last week I swear he's grown a few inches. He seems so big. We love every stage of life with this little guy. He brings so much joy and excitement into our life. He's got seven teeth right now and were waiting on the eighth. His bites hurt. He's crawling all over the place. He lifts himself up and walks all around things. He's said mama, dada, and baba for awhile , but I think he knows the meaning now. He loves to make you laugh and he mocks everything we do now. He loves books, songs, toys, food. Did I mention he loves food. Seriously this kid LOVES food. He will eat anything and everything except for green veggies. He loves to dance, wave hi and bye, give hi-fives, and clap. He is so fun. He's becoming more of and mom/dad's boy, but still loves people. We are so in love and love being parents.

Now an update on the Mr and Mrs. Justin is still working for his parents till august then he's flying out to train and we'll be opening our own insurance business in early fall. Were both ultra excited. He's antsy for the weather to get warm so we can go boating. I am more than ready too. It will be fun having Briggs at the lake this year. Justin has new car fever and anybody that knows J this won't come as a surprise to. I told him he has to really decide what he wants cause he can't turn around and sell in a year. So he looks on the Internet every night. Mostly at H2's so that's what we will probably end up with:) We just celebrated our four year anniversary. I know I've already said it, but seriously where does the time go?! I think with each year of marriage it gets better and better. I love you babe. My life is so fun with my two boys!! I am a full time mommy and am working at the salon two days a week. I love it. For those of you who don't know yet I got diagnosed with skin cancer. I've had two surgeries at huntsman and now I'm cancer free!! It's been an emotional couple months filled with ouchy surgeries but to hear you have cancer is life changing and to hear cancer free was the best. Thanks to a wonderful supportive and loving husband and lots of family and friends it made the hard times that much better. So be smart in the sun and stay out of those awful tanning beds!! Other than that Justin and I are adjusting more and more to becoming home bodies. Life is good and we can't wait for summer! I'll be better at this blogging thing..promise..I will I have an app on my phone for it now so no excuses. Thanks for still checking in! Here's some pics of Briggs!!
