Baby Showers!!

(Gifts from work friends and students)

My best friend from work, Taryn, threw me a shower with all my work peeps. It was awesome. She made the yummiest Pumpkin Cake Whoopie Pies known to mankind. Many of my students also gave me gifts and cute drawings of me singing while pregnant!

Then, a great friend from church, Lucy, threw me a shower with all my social peeps. It was awesome! She organized lots of fun games and prizes for everyone. MomR flew out from Colorado to be there. And my twin cousins, Shauna & Amanda, drove up from San Diego to be at it, too!

(The Ultra-sound Game. You had to put my ultra sound pictures in order by week -9 weeks total- and correctly identify Little One's body parts)
(Marcy & Me. She is due in August)
(The Baby Food game. I had to guess what flavors they were, and I was pretty good at it! We tried it with Jeremy later, and he hated every flavor- even the sweat potatoes. Pretty funny that I liked the food and he hated it)
Jeremy and I received tons of wonderful things!! Thank you everyone, SO much! Now we feel much more ready for Little One to be born. He is actually due in ONE WEEK!!!

4th of July

  Our celebrations for Independence Day 2020 were very different than what we're used to. This is my favorite holiday along with Easter, and I try to go big each year, so it took a lot of stretching for me to find ways to make the week special with so many Covid limitations. We ended up having a lot of fun! First we got things festive looking around the house with art projects.  Tanner really liked painting, with straws!  Dallin really liked it, too! We went to Walmart to buy some clothes for Mom, Tanner, and Dallin. Mom really wanted to see how she looked so Tanner took some pictures. We couldn't go into the changing rooms cuz of Covid, and there weren't any mirrors around, so this is the only thing we could do! Cool guys ready to celebrate in their new shirts!! Can you see the great horned owl in the tree? This is our view from our balcony. There it goes!! Massage time for Mom!! Dallin really wanted to be a masseuse, so this is one way for him to do it! Grandpa Papa and...

A Happy New Year

Image
Between Christmas and New Year's, we had some great vacationing. Jeremy worked on Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve (cuz they are slower days), and then took off Mondays. So he had a much needed relaxing two weeks. And we loved it, too, because we got to see lots of Daddy! The boys played while Daddy snow-blowed, and then Jeremy took them around the yard a few times in the sled. Tanner is getting very creative with his imaginary drum sets. One day, he used the remote controls for percussion instruments. We went to the Minneapolis Zoo on one of Jeremy's days off! (Thanks, Uncle Steve and Aunt Katie for the giftcard!) You might be wondering, "Why go to the zoo in the winter? Isn't it freezing there?" The answer is yes, it is actually colder than freezing. We wanted to go to the zoo because of the huge indoor tropic exhibit they have! Dallin and I enjoyed the toddler playroom.  Dallin kept finding the trickiest ways to climb on the exhibit. He didn't want to g...

Summer Begins!

Image
Summer is in the air! This post features photos from end of May to beginning of June 2021. Field Trip at the Rose Garden in Balboa Park. Homeschool project with Aunt Katie.  This lesson they explored dragon fruit and made really yummy parfaits. Final days of Bucket Drumming class, Music Mappers class, Family Music class, and private lessons.  Tanner worked for me and earned $10 each week as my teacher's assistant in Bucket Drumming class. After training him, he did really well. Also, I recorded students playing piano and singing for a virtual recital. I hired someone to edit and compile the videos and it turned out darling. However, it was very time consuming. Dallin reading to Tanner Silly snack Baseball Game with our friend from Little League Sailing in Mission Bay (maybe on Memorial Weekend?) with JoMatta.  Jeremy was really interested in taking us sailing. He watched a bunch of YouTube videos about sailing, rented us a sailboat and was the captain of the ship. We had ...
