White Salmon/Hood River OR

This year we decided to go to Washington and Oregon for our summer trip.  I have always wanted Pete to see where I served my mission.  Here was my first and last area... White Salmon.  I lived in the blue duplex and it was probably my second nicest apartment.  There are also a few shots of the Columbia River from outside our hotel in Hood River OR.  This is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been.  Comparable to Germany in beauty.... I was prego in the first trimester so I was sick as a dog most of the trip.  Bummer.

Aunt Amandas Birthday

So Amandas birthday was in February but lets face it I haven't blogged in about six or seven months :)  My mom and Tiffany came down from UT and Keli, Pete, Robyn, Carter and I took her to dinner and a movie and then had cake.  Can you tell Carter is Amandas shadow?  He is crazy in love with his Amanda.

Bathroom #3 AFTER Renovation

I really think this bathroom is beautiful.  I am so happy I have a husband who has an attention to detail.  The pictures don't show how beautiful it turned out but it will give you an idea.  We love having a bathroom downstairs and it is nice for our guests who use the guest bedroom downstairs.  Great job babe!

Bathroom renovation BEFORE....

Pete finished our third bathroom downstairs with the help of Daniel Hugely, Jason Jeppson, Jake Ostler, and

Spencer Gardner.  Here is a couple before shots. They had to do all the plumbing, electric, move the shower drain, drywall, mud, tape, ect.  It was a lot of hours and hard work but it turned out great.  I am happy to be married to a go-getter/fix it man.  And thanks to all his friends who taught him how to do all this and helped put so many hours in.  Oh and thanks to thier wives for letting them come night after night :)

Discovery Gateway Musuem

Pete and I decided to get an annual membership for the Discovery Gateway Musuem so that we can take Carter a couple times a week. They have free classes everyday including music classes, reading groups, science classes, self esteem classes, art classes, and toddler time. Carter loves it. We usually go at least twice a week and this time we brought Madi who also loved it. They were cute to watch. Keli and I had to jam three car seats in the back of the Volvo but we did it. Brinly slept through the ordeal until five pm when she got hungry.
