What...Another Trip to Utah?

It's true, I went to Utah AGAIN! But who could resist a $160 roundtrip ticket? It was a short trip, but totally worth it because....

I got to meet my 7-day old nephew Skyler. Lea was supposed to still be pregnant when I got there, and we were both going to be in the third trimester officially for one day. I forgave her once I met this beautiful boy.


And my crazy sis stuck with the plan of throwing me a baby shower, now with a brand new baby. My mom and SIL Devri helped out too!



Um....I apparently don't know how these shower things work. I was instructed that I'm supposed to model the clothing by holding it up to my belly. Who knew!


The best part was being able to see friends and family I haven't seen, literally, in years. Valerie and I were oboe majors together at BYU. She's 8 months pregnant with her 3rd!


Lea and Lisa, who was a flute major and played chamber music with me at BYU.


Julie and her daughter Myla. I have a special connection to Myla--Julie was tutoring me over the phone on how to write a paper for Music History when her water broke and she went into labor. That was pretty awesome.


My amazing family - Lea, Skyler, Aunt Martie, and cousins Heidi and Cindi!



Okay, get this. I knew Susan (right) from Arizona, and then when I moved back to Utah I was roommates with Emily (left). Then they independently moved to D.C. and ended up in the same ward as each other, and now both live in Utah. Crazy!


More fam--my amazing SIL Devri and my cousin Angie!


My second mother-in-law Cheryl (translation: Lea's mother-in-law who took care of me for years before I got married!)


Back home in GA with my wonderful husband. I think Greg's really starting to like pink and little girl stuff.

Thank you everybody for giving me such a wonderful shower. I had the most amazing time ever!!!!

I'm glad you forgave me... we'll just tell Skyler that you really came out for him. ;-)

you think Greg's just now starting to like little girl stuff? I think he's liked it secretly for awhile, now...don't you?
