This weekend we went up north to have a fun weekend with our families.  The details are as follows:

 First stop: Trevor's baseball game in Salem...

 A stop at the park before the long drive...

 Hanging out at Grandma Claire's and Papa's...

 Being on Papa's team for a little Rage...

Yep, another fun weekend with our families :)

SLAB

The other night Brett and I had a really fun date.  We got a babysitter and went to dinner and to a movie.  It was so nice to not have Lincoln there and get to spend time with each other.  We went to SLAB  pizza and it was SO yummy!!  

 After dinner we went to the new Avengers movie.  It was so great!  We love going to the theaters and seeing a movie, it is seriously such a treat.  That night we were up for a long time and couldn't sleep.  So, we did shadow puppets until we got tired.  I love being married to Brett, life is always exciting!

Solar Eclipse

Sundays are so crazy at church.  Sometimes it's all we can do to make it through Sacrament meeting.  Last Sunday I came out after sunday school to find Brett and Lincoln.  This is how I found them, they are so cute. 

 After church we headed up to my parents for a sunday dinner with Deven's family, Trev, and my parents.  It was so fun!!  We were also lucky enough to catch some glimpses of the solar eclipse.  We got creative in protecting our eyes.

 Lincoln seriously LOVES Penny.  He played ball and followed Penny around for quite a while.  It was darling. 

 I love going up to our parents houses because of their amazing views.  Since moving to Provo and living the apartment life, I miss so much these incredible views.  Nice to look out your window and not see junk!!

Mother's Day

It has been a fabulous Mother's Day.

 I woke up to this....Brett is so darling...

 We went to church and then came home for Lincoln's nap.  After his nap we went to the park by the Provo Temple.  Lincoln's "happy place" is outside and to have Dad there is basically heaven....

 Brett and I got our frizz on....

 We love our Utah Valley mountains...

 This bridge was a hit...

We had a great day and I'm so grateful to be a Mother.  It has brought me closer to God and I love that he trusts me and Brett to be parents to Lincoln and our future children. 

I was also happy to get to talk to my Josh on speaker with my whole family.  I love Josh and I can't wait for him to come home!
