Brianna's Graduation

Last weekend Todd and I drove to Iowa with Jim for a very short visit. We got to go to my little sisters graduation and then we were at Ian's blessing on Sunday. I was at school on Friday and Monday. We had a lot of fun though. Brianna was the valedictorian and she gave a great speech. Brody was so cute with McKenna. He just thought she was great. Gracee has a crazy personality and it is fun to watch her sometimes.

The Scooter

This is our scooter. We finally have pictures on it here. Todd wanted this picture of me on here because I was looking goofy and because I have pants on under my skirt. He thought I looked pretty funny. These are our helmets as well, mine has cherries on the side. We like to take the scooter for drives on really hot nights because our apartment gets so hot and it is cool outside. We saw this awesome lot on our drive tonight, it had the most beautiful view. However, it was on the side of a pretty steep hill.

Two Beautiful Blessings

Just thought I would take a moment to thank my Heavenly Father for these two beautiful children in our lives. They are so sweet and they do look like cousins. Love you all.

Tired but Happy

Well we finally welcomed McKenna Oldham into our family this morning at 7:33 am. Megan went to the hospital twice yesterday and was sent home. The third time she went they let her stay. We had a little scare when she got a little stressed in the womb, but Megan was able to have her naturally and we are grateful for all of our blessings. She weighed 8 lbs 7 oz and was 20.5 inches long. She is beautiful and everyone has fallen in love with her already, especially mommy and daddy. Sorry we don't have any good pictures of daddy, but we will get them on here soon.

A Good Visit

It's been a long time since I last wrote but a lot has been happening. Some of our family came to visit us for a week in March. We got to have my sister and her whole family out here and my dad and little sister got to be here too. We were only missing my mom. Our new nephew Ian, is a beautiful boy who is very sweet. I loved holding him and took every chance I got to do so. Our nephew Brody seems to love having uncles. When everyone came over to our house for the first time, it was chaos with the two hooligans. Brody wanted to color and since Gracee has to do everything he does, she wanted to color as well. We got a few new marks on our coffee table. So after I took the colors away she commenced to pull out all of my movies. So the next time they came I put a movie in. This was the effect. It was so nice. It was sad when everyone left, but we did love every minute of it. If only we could all live close enough to visit often. Love to all.

Stake Conference

Last night and today we had stake conference. Because of our Stake Presidency being released and a new presidency being called we had the great opportunity of having Elder L. Tom Perry at our conference. For the Sunday session we decided we wanted to be there early in order to be close enough to see well. We were very glad of our decision when we saw Elder Perry walking around shaking hands with those already there. We were one of the lucky couples who got to shake his hand and got to speak with him for just a moment. It was a special experience for us both. Especially me since it is the first time I've had the opportunity to shake an apostle's hand. We had a great conference too.

Can't Believe It

On Saturday and Sunday we had beautiful weather. It was somewhere in the 50's and the sun was out shining. Then on Monday morning we awoke to this. What a turn around.
