Minnesota Beach

So the other day Camryn and I and couple of our friends all decided to go to the beach! Well, as close to a beach as you can get in Minnesota I guess. There are lakes EVERYWHERE. (That is why they call it the land of 10,000 lakes.) But as much fun as playing on the lake is, you don't really want to wade along the shore. To much seaweed and green guck. So that is why I'm assuming someone came up with the idea to make a man-made pond with chlorinated/filtered water and complete it with sand! I much appreciate the genius behind this idea! We had SO MUCH FUN!!! Camryn had a blast splashing and wading in the water. At first she didn't like the sand on her feet, but before you knew it she was sitting and playing in it. What a great time we had!
Camryn was pretty brave and went right out exploring in the water all the way up to her chest! (please excuse the blinding white legs in the picture!)

It was a lot of fun to see the kids together. Quinn on the left is 8 months( I think...am I right Erin?) Camryn just about 13 months, and Will (the lone boy in this age bracket at our ward) is 10 months. I think it is funny because they are all pretty much the same size!

I was feeding all these little birdies crackers so they would sit still for pictures.

We had such a great time and we will definitely be going back many times! Thanks to Lisa for coming up with the great idea! It was great to hang out Erin and Lisa! Lets do it again soon!

TWILIGHT PARTY!!!

So I know I'm a little behind on posting about this, so I apologize. But my friend Erin and I put on a Twilight party last week just before Breaking Dawn came out. Some people might think we are a little crazy or obsessed, but I don't care. We had a blast! We had everyone dress in black and/or red and we played games, ate tasty food, and laughed a lot! Erin has a better entry of the party on her blog (she has pictures too!) So you need to go and check it out on her blog!
If you want to have a fun night with the girls, I would highly recommend a Twilight party!
Erin thanks for being a great party planning partner! You did an amazing job!

Couple Things On My Mind...

So here I am....waiting. I have been DYING to finally get to finish the Twilight series and the final book comes out today as many of you know. I preordered my copy and I picked release date delivery. So here I am, waiting, and it is all I can think about today!
I know that everyone wanted me to make an official post about me being pregnant! So here is it! I'm 13 weeks and due on February 7th! Also, I have been more sick this time around (still no throwing up though!) But I think I am pretty much done with the sick part. Thank goodness! Also, Camryn and this baby will be pretty close, they will be about 19 months apart. I think that will be tricky at first, but in the long run, I think they will be great little buddies. Anyways, that is everything I think of. Paul and I are super excited!!!
And because I CARE about Doctor Who, I want to say that last nights series finale was intense, hilarious, incredibly sad, and WONDERFUL all at the same time. It was amazing! I'm sad that there won't be any new episodes for a while, but that is ok because I can just watch the old ones forever!
Pretty intense!!! I love the Doctor!
