Baby Shower

Shanna hosted a very fun baby shower for Jeanette and Allie. She made a cupcake tree. There was so much fun food and best of all she made a diaper cake that looked great. Thank-you all so much for all the wonderful gifts and support with Allie. We can't wait for her to come and at the same time it is very scary.

St. Louis

On our last night in St. Louis we were able to take a drive and find a few sites. We did not get out of our car becasue of the rain and tornado watch. Here is a awesome picture of a rainbow I took in downtown St. Louis.

The Past Month.

During the end of April we went up one Saturday to the Logan Temple. It was the first time that we had been to the Logan Temple. After we finished up our session we headed down the canyon and enjoyed lunch at Maddox.

I was able to get REAL tickets from my work a couple of weeks ago. It was the night they played David Beckman. The tickets were pretty good, and Mikey had really good luck catching items getting thrown into the stand. First he caught a frisbee and then a few minutes later he caught a offical sizes soccor ball. After he caught the soccor ball, I felt bad for the little kids in front of us because of their envious looks. We were nice and gave them the frisbee. There was no way my 26 year old kid was going to give up the soccor ball.
