Bear Lake


Yay for time to blog! It’s been awhile so it’ll be lots of fun catching everything up and finally posting some bear lake pictures. I wish I had more pictures and fun pictures but for some weird reason I didn’t go crazy like I usually do which is even more weird since I couldn’t do anything but pretty much sit in the boat. Oh well.

So Chad and I were suppose to leave South Carolina Sunday early early morning and get to Bear Lake late Monday night so Friday I slowly started getting things ready and cleaning when Chad called at 6 and said he was headed home and lets go! I was so happy but wasn’t ready. I started doing the fasting packing and cleaning and trying to get everything ready as I could. I still don’t really know how we got it all in the car especially since we were suppose to ship one of the bigger boxes home but ups was already closed so we had to just find room. We thought our car was full on the way out, but no it was so much more jammed pack. I’m sure we were getting 10 mpg for the load we were haulin. Chad’s whole reason for wanting to go home early was to go to St George first and see his family for a day. So we did the trek. Georgia, Alabama, New Mexico, Texas, Arizona.. Ya I can’t remember them all but we did 12 states in 2 days. We rolled in town just in time for Sunday dinner with the Hewards. It was so fun to see everyone. Especially for Chad since he hadn’t since April. The next morning we got another 7 ½ of driving as we went from the bottom of Utah to the very tippy top. It seemed like nothing compared to the 36 though.

We got to Bear Lake and were amazed how much the water had raised this year. Yeah, goodbye my favorite beaches in the world.  Out the back of our cabin went grass, fence, water. Weird considering there used to be 100+ yards of the best beaches. It put a damper on the wiffle ball games we used to play daily and the hopes of going back to where Chad proposed. All under water. We had a good time though and the water was glass everyday!! It sucked having to watch everyone wakeboard and not get my own turn. I did go on a little tube ride with my mom and Lind and if you know my mother you know how calm that ride was.

Cutest little kid!




Check that smile

Pregnant Mikey

Ashton's favorite thing ever!



Cute boys!




Friday Jordon and Mary got married so we got to go down to the Salt Lake Temple and be there for that and then go to their lunch in. It was so much fun and we were soo happy for the two! They are perfect for each other! Yay for married friends in St George!

The only picture I took


I am now 22 weeks prego and have that belly that cant be hid. There is no confusion with people when wondering if I am pregnant and that’s when you know you’re big. She’s giving us lot of kicks everyday and right now I love it! I love when she starts kicking and just to feel it. I know I probably won’t love it so much in a couple weeks when I can’t sleep and it starts hurting. I can’t help but just look at nursery stuff all day everyday and I cannot wait to start on that! I just can’t wait for her to come actually. It’s going to be crazy crazy but soo much fun and amazing! My phone app says she is 11.5 in and 1.1 lb. Pretty impressive i'd say! 


As for now I am in Richfield putting Lindie’s and I orders together and going to get ready for a baby show in September in Kentucky! Chad flew back to South Carolina on Sunday so baby and me are sure missing him. He’ll be home soon though and start school and end the season selling in St George! Loving Utah, loving being home, loving having friends and family so close! Life is just great!
