CrAsH!

July 18th, 2011

I left my mom's on my way to Costco to fill up (so happy I was running on fumes) & at 2:30pm I was passing the North Hampton house when a 3500 ton Chevy Silverado truck with a metal flat bed drove out in front of me. I slammed on my brakes & was able to turn right a bit so I didn't hit completely head on. It wasn't too hard of a hit bc of that but the metal flat bed corner caught on my car & ripped it up totaling our beloved Honda Accord (tear). Grayden was in the car with me but thankfully nor he or I or my unborn child was injured. Grayden actually handled everything just fine. No crying or screaming or anything. He was a bit distraught when the tow truck was taking it away but other then that he was just saying "car broken". After getting the rental car I was talked into going to the AF hospital at 7pm to check out how the fetus was doing. After being monitored for 6 hrs in Trioge I was finally able to go home at 1am. I was having contractions so they gave me this nasty shot to stop them, which made you feel like (I would think) a cack addict on withdrawals. They also gave me an ultrasound only to find out the baby was breached so this whole time I was denied food incase of an emergency c-section & I hadn't eaten anything since lunch! Starving I was! Anyway it was good to know the baby was doing great & that the accident hadn't affected him.
This was the car T bought right off his mission, the car we dated in & brought home our first child in.
Farewell old friend.

Our new Honda...
2008 CR-V that I absolutly love!

This Sunday I thought Grayden was looking extra cute so I attempted to take a good picture.

The Carni's in Town!

July 8th, 2011

We spent a night at the carnival when it was in town for AF Steel Days. This was a first for Grayden & he absolutly loved it! This was also a new experience for T & he had a bit of a "culture" shock. Later on Natasha & Payden joined us & the kids couldn't have been cuter!



We put Grayden on this roller coaster & he had no idea what it did. As it took off he had this hilarious look on his face of pure stunned fear. This video doesn't really show it but he's not all smiles like in the other pics & no he didn't want to go on it again.







It's so rewarding to see them having so much fun.

Independence Day 2011

Most of the day was spent planting our flower beds- something we have never bothered to do all the years we lived here. We decided it was time to do so & are finally loving our front yard now. (pics to come)

In the evening we BBQ'd at the Founy's along with some neighbors. Come night fall the Founy's had a firework show which was very enjoyable since Utah this year finally made arial fireworks legal- which are much more entertaining then the fountains you usually get stuck with.




Here I am at 34 weeks pregnant...
The stickers are "Safety Kid" stickers that the firework stand gave to customers. Cohen distributed them out to everyone.
Safety First!
