Help!


To start, I realize I'm looking for something very specific, but I know a lot of you have some great resources for kiddie items. So here it goes... I'm looking for a large foam (or some other light-weight material) letter "g" for above Graham's crib. I would love it to be a big swooping lower case letter in a bright color; either green, orange, yellow, blue, etc. If you know of some web sites to search or have seen the above described letter please send the info my way. Thanks for your help!

Oh dear!

Well here it is. Enjoy! The fun thing about this commercial is every single person is in my ward! Brian Neff, our friend and ward member as well, helps with advertising for Intermountain Vein Center and so for talent he used us! Probably because we were beautiful, but mostly because we were cheap!

Ah, Lake Powell







We decided to take a quick trip to Lake Powell this past weekend. Marty's parents, Brian and Tayva, were there on their houseboat so we joined them late Friday night. It was so fun to take Graham on the boat and for his first swim in 70 degree water. He was such a trooper. He didn't cry with the huge life jacket on and seemed to enjoy the water well enough. We ate good food, watched movies, read, laid in the hot sun and slept! It was marvelous and I want to go back this weekend. One exciting milestone for me was being able to wakesurf behind the boat. Eight month ago I could hardly stand up without help so to be able to do this was quite a feet. It makes me so much more grateful for these event in my life and I've promised myself to never take them for granted. I wasn't very strong and I couldn't go for long, but I did it! My mother-in-law said I should frame a picture of me surfing and take it to my neurologist. I think I just might:) I'll spare you the swimsuit shot... but it was great fun! And lastly, Graham started to crawl... well move is more like it... my life is over and I know it, but he is so cute when he rolls and gets up on those tiny knees and just smiles! Ooh, I love him!

Lights, Camera, Action!





We recently did a commercial for Marty. He was filming in San Diego for the day so he couldn't be there to see our star-studded performance. I think the commercial is for the Intermountain Vein Center. I was suppose to be the women who had my varicose veins removed after having a baby. (Yes, Thanks Marty) All I really did was hold Graham and walk down a stone path and then push him in the stroller. So watch for us soon! Afterwards the director put Graham on the camera dolly to take some photos for Marty. Like Father like Son! He looks so natural don't you think... well he actually looks like he is going to fall over! It was a fun morning!

8 Months


Everything in his mouth
Including the milestone card
Soggy Paper! Yum!





He fell over just after I took this picture
Not too stable on his feet yet
Maybe 9 months?

June

Fun things have been going on around our home. Here are a few...


Seven Peaks today with Chelsea and her kiddies
Graham's first time in the pool!


A Happy Father's Day to Marty.
I'm not even sure where to start when paying tribute to him,
So I'll leave it to your fondest thoughts and know that he is 10x's what you are thinking
:)




We bought the $$$ Lamp I posted about a few months ago!
This picture doesn't do it justice, it is fabulous, and I love it!
Worth every penny
Graham's nursery is finally coming together- 8 months is not too late, right?


Graham's First Graham Cracker
Life is exciting


Lastly, I have no photo of my paint problem. I chose to paint our master bathroom blue, but I'm pretty sure it is too blue now that it is up and surrounded by white everything.
Anyone have any painting sympathy for me?
I think I'm going to repaint.
Anyone done that?
No, just me?
:(
