Feb 2009- Part 2

Mid-February we went to Utah. I love the mountains there. I miss mountains here in Massachusetts, although when I was in Utah I missed the trees...


Hannah and Will got married in the Provo Utah Temple.
I am so excited for them, and to get to know Will as a new Brother-in-Law. It was very snowy on their wedding day, but they didn't seem to mind. I think they were just happy.


I got to see all of my sisters and brother-in-laws, but we were missing my brother Spencer and wife Kim and their kids.

I did some belly-bumping with Sarah, who is about 5 weeks ahead of me in her pregnancy. They don't know if this baby is a boy or a girl. It'll be fun to have cousins so close!
As always, there were swarms of little nieces running around.
Katie and Gordon's oldest daughter got baptised while we were all in town. We are so proud of her decision to follow Christ, make covenants with him, and become a member of the church. I was glad to get to be there, because we don't often get to come out for all family events. I cannot believe Lily is already 8 years old!






My friends Becky and Emily threw me a baby shower. They are so nice to put up with me and my anti-babyshower sentiments. It turned out really nice, with so many of my good friends there.


Emily came up from Pittsburg for this shower. She put togethere crafting supplies and baby clothes, burp clothes, and blankets to be decorated by folks at the shower. I now have some one-of-a-kind baby gear. It was fun.


Cheryl made a great cake for the shower. I didn't know she was doing it so it was such a nice surprise. It was really cute, and it tasted great! It went along with the theme of baby clothes on a clothesline.

All the food at the party was excellent. Thanks for all your hard work ladies!

Here I am at 33 weeks. I included this picture so you could see my new haircut that my Sister-in-Law Melissa did for me while I was in Utah. She is so talented and really has an eye for what a person will like and what their style is. Thanks Mel! I absolutely love it. (My students say I'm ready to have a baby now because my hair is so short. It's a "mom cut.")

WAHOOOOOOOZERS! Welcome to blogging world Jess! I have missed you and Luke like crazy. It's good to see pictures of you. I guess you "came out of the closet"! When we come up to Boston I can't wait to see the story.
