Princess Taylor

Last week Taylor and I had a very fun day at the Spa. Here in Spanish Fork, they have a day spa that has a special section just for girls. As part of the 24Th celebration, they had an activity called, "Tea with the Queen". All the Spanish Fork royalty had a very nice lunch with the girls in the tea room. Then the girls were treated to face and nail painting. They also have a special room for girls with hundreds of dress up dresses. There is a runway where the girls can strut their stuff. It was so much fun and Justin watched the other girls so Taylor and I could have some one on one time. Taylor didn't want to leave! I took a lot of pictures, here are some of them.

Family Fun

Last week some of my extended family came to visit and it was so much fun. I stayed with my mom for a few days and then on the 24th they came to our house for a BBQ. It was a lot of fun. It was especially fun to meet my cousin's little baby Grayer. He is so cute. The girls loved playing with him, especially Ellie. I hope it helped them get ready to meet our baby Noah. My family doesn't like to pose for pictures so that is why everyone is making weird faces in these, Enjoy.


This is my grandma Robbie with Cortney and Matt.

Joslyn really got into the cake, she climbed up on the table and helped herself.

This is Justin and my uncle Richard talking BBQ.

My aunt Denise and Baby Grayer.

Newer family pictures

Well I just got home from being at my parents for a few days, so I will finally post the pictures we took a couple of weeks ago. They didn't turn out that great, but the girls look really cute, which is all that matters. We took them right before church.

Trying to get them to stay in one spot is pretty tough!

Justin and his little girls

I look kind of weird in this one, but the rest of the family is gorgeous, that is usually how it goes these days!

Taylor's Birthday

Taylor turned 4 on the 6Th of July. We were in Fallon at the time, so with the help of Grandma Ellie, we had a great party for her. We did a Disney princess theme and she loved it. Here are the pictures:




You can see the spot of chocolate on her chin, she had to test out the cake, of course.




Don't worry, there is nothing wrong with her nose. Ellie had scratched her earlier and she wanted a band aide. She left it on the whole day!

Goodbye Sister Larsen

Yesterday, we said goodye to my little sister and sent her on her mission. I am so excited for her and I know she will be an AWESOME missionary. As always, it was hard to say goodbye, but I know she is doing the right thing. Being in the MTC always brings back memories of when I was trapped there myself. Did I say trapped? Just kidding I actually loved the MTC, it was just a little hard to adjust to. I know you RMs know what I am talking about. It is one the most spirit filled places you can be in my opinion. I learned so much and I am so grateful I spent two months of my life there. The smell is still the same, so I know Rebekah will have a great experience as well. We love you Bekah!!!

Fat Day

Well, I hate to post something like this because I am so grateful to be pregnant and I try not to complain because I did bring this upon myself, well for the most part. But I had a really bad fat day. The last couple of weeks my tummy has exploded and I feel like a whale. The thing is, I hate being fat, I know, I'm not fat, I'm pregnant, but pounds are pounds. Especially since the baby only weighs 2 of them. Today I couldn't find anything to eat that was healthy and yummy. I finally ate a salad instead of the cheese fries I wanted to make, but alas I was still hungry. Justin thinks I'm crazy for watching what I eat when I am pregnant, but I know how hard it is to lose after the baby comes, I have done it three times now. I want to be healthy for all my kids. Anyway it is all worth it in the end and I should just enjoy this time and reserve my place in Weight Watchers for after the baby comes. I really am so happy to be pregnant, and I'm not going to complain again, okay, maybe just to Justin. I know things could be worse and I am so blessed to be healthy and that the baby is healthy and I have a healthy family. That was a bad sentence, but you know what I mean. On a happier note, we are going to visit Justin's family this week, which will be fun. So, I probably won't be posting in a while. The girls are so excited to see their cousins and family. Have a happy and safe 4Th of July!
