Note to self: Maybe the white shirt against the white wall wasn't the best choice...it's a little hard to see the difference.

Emily and Ryan's Wedding!

I flew to Indianapolis for my friend Emily's wedding on Aug. 15th. My family drove out to meet me and we spent the night and part of Saturday together. It was so fun to see them again. Plus Becca and I took Lillia swimming in the hotel pool. Then we met up with Kristin and Jen and all had lunch together. The wedding was absolutely beautiful and Emily looked amazing. We got to spend time with Loretta at the reception and the four of us had fun reminiscing. It was a great little reunion and I'm glad we were all there for Em's special day.











California

So I've been seriously slacking when it comes to our blog! So I thought the easiest way for me to catch up on our summer vacations is just to post some pictures. Really when I look at blogs thats what I mainly just look at. But let me say - we had a really nice time in San Luis. We went to the beach 3 times, ate some seriously great food, loved spending time with family, and enjoyed the perfect California weather. So here are some of the picture highlights:

Our Stay in Vegas

Our favorite place to stay when we go to Las Vegas is at the Paris Hotel. Not that we've stayed many other places (maybe two others?) but the last four or five times there we go to the Paris. We like it because the rooms are great, the rates are pretty decent, it's right on the strip, and best of all - it's right across from the Bellagio where we LOVE the buffet (it's a pregnant girls dream I tell you!).
So anyways we didn't get to Vegas until about 8:30pm because I had a doctors appointment that day. When we checked in for our reserved room (which was the least expensive of the rooms there) we found out that all those rooms were full so they let us stay in one of their luxury suites for the night. When we walked into our room we couldn't stop laughing because this room was absolutely HUGE and beautiful! It was on the second to highest floor and was totally amazing. Turns out this room normally cost $500 (on a week night!!) to stay in - but don't worry we only had to pay for the room we reserved.
To celebrate this awesome upgrade we went down to the restaurants there and I got a nice, big chocolate eclair. Here are a couple pictures of the room so you can all be jealous.

Vacation - Part 1

We had a great time in Ohio. It was so nice to spend some relaxing, quality time with family. We really didn't do a ton. I babysat Becca's little girl, Lillia, and LOVED being with my newest niece. We also spent a day in Kirtland seeing the sights. We did some shopping, hung out with my grandparents who flew in from AZ, ate yummy Graeter's ice cream, and enjoyed sitting on the porch in the wonderful weather. It was so much fun and I was very sad to leave. :o(

After spending one day at home in Idaho running errands, we just got into San Luis Obispo, CA late last night. Oh, we also had an awesome stay at our night in Vegas, but I think I'll save that story for later!

P.S. I am 6 months along now. Feeling great, even though my bump is still way tiny. I've gained 6 pounds but I'm doing well and enjoying feeling all the tiny kicks!
