In case you haven't heard....

We're having a GIRL!

I can't wait to start decorating the nursery!

Paul McCartney Rocks!

For our anniversary this year we celebrated in style by going to a Paul McCartney Concert! It was fun to be there and jam out to all the Beatles songs we grew up listening to. I can't believe it has been three years already! Time flies...and we are loving every minute!

It's always fun (and crazy) when Collin comes!

We had so much fun while Collin was here to visit earlier this month! It was non-stop partying around here for two weeks, and I have to admit I was exhausted by the time he left! Collin loved going for bike rides around town..

We spent one night at Trafalga, which is always a good time!

We invited my nephew Issaac along one night to hike Timpanogas Caves. Luckily, we had perfect weather, but that hike is steep!

I didn't know if I was going to make it to the top...I'll blame it on the pregnancy!

One afternoon we made our way up to the Salt Lake Temple to do baptisms. It was such a neat experience, and probably my favorite thing we did!

Collin was here for the Fourth, so he got to take part in all of the festivities for the the Freedom Days Festival in Provo. We got up EARLY one morning to go over and watch the balloon launch. Unfortunately it was a bit windy, so none of the balloons went anywhere. But we did get to watch the balloons get blown up, which was fun.

Th pig balloon was of course my favorite!

We are so happy Collin got to come and spend a few weeks with us here in Utah. He definitely brought some excitement and kept us on our toes! We can't wait until he comes again!

It's official...

Baby Johnson is on his/her way!

We can't wait for January to be here and just simply couldn't be happier!

Hooked on Fishin'

Collin has been here in Utah with me the past week and we have had so much fun! One thing he has found he loves here in Utah is fishing at the Reservoirs and ponds. We have been going almost everyday!

He has had some good days....

...and some not so good days! Look closely, can you see that LURE hanging from his back?!

Yowza! It looked like it hurt and it was in there good! After a few hours and finally a trip to the Urgent care clinic, the lure was successfully removed and Collin has a fun story to tell all his friends. What an adventure!

Feels so nice...

...to be a college graduate! I finally made it, and I am so happy to be done with school for the time being.

I was so lucky to have all of our family here for the big day. I am so grateful to have such an amazing supportive family!

Luckily while Collin was in town he was able to earn his degree as well, in none other than "ladyology." That kid is a total crack up, he came up with that one all on his own!

We ended the day with lunch at Tucanos and went home stuffed to the brim! It was such a fun day and I was so happy everyone was here to share it with me! Now I just have to figure out what to do with my life...

Seattle

A few weeks ago Zachary was off to Seattle for a Conference and I decided to tag along, I'm so glad I did. I was a little worried about being able to fill my time while he was at the conference, but I figured if anything I could read a book. I brought two books and didn't even touch one of them! Luckily we were staying downtown for the first part of the trip so I was close to all the shopping a girl could ever wish for! I had a grand time sleeping in, taking my time getting ready, meeting Z for lunch, and shopping the afternoon away!

I LOVE the Pike Place Market, it was so fun just to walk around and see all the action that was going on. We also got to buy a bouquet of those gorgeous flowers to take home for Z's mom for Mothers Day. I couldn't get over how gorgeous they were, and was wishing I would have snagged a bouquet for myself!

First stop after we checked into our Hotel was Ivars fish bar for some fish and chips. It didn't disappoint! Zachary was brave enough to feed the seagulls, but as you can see below I got up enough courage to pretty much hide in the corner and pray to make it out alive...those birds are terrifying!

We took little harbor cruise which was so fun. Surprisingly the weather was gorgeous the entire time we were there! It was a little chilly on the boat, but we were grateful the sun was shining!

Zachary was adamant that if we only do one thing while in Seattle, that one thing would be to attend a Mariners game, so that we did. Unfortunately the Mariners lost 8-0 with their pitcher throwing back to back to back home runs! It was still fun to have a hot dog and some garlic fries while rooting for our team!

We celebrated Zachary's birthday with dinner at the crab pot! We LOVE that place. Of course we had to recreate the picture from our honeymoon almost 3 years ago....and now I am feeling sick because I just went to upload that picture and can't find any of our honeymoon pictures anywhere!! Hope that I can find them...

The Seattle Aquarium, Space Needle, Pacific Science Center, and EMP museum were a few other stops on our lil' vacay. The last few days we got lucky and scored a sweet deal through priceline (which I am a firm believer in) on a room at the Edgewater Hotel. I think that hotel room actually was my favorite part of the trip, you could fish off the balcony if you wanted! We had so much fun, and can't wait until we can get away again!
