YEP!!! WE ARE PREGNANT!...again...about 7 weeks along!!! We are both very excited!! And we know that Tyson is going to be a great big brother!!

We had a lot of fun telling our families, we told my side of the family by telling them we wanted to show them a cute outfit that we had bought for lil tyson, when they looked at the shirt it said "Im the Big Brother" :) Most got it right away!!

We told most of Tysons family on family picture day! Tys sister was in town from Virgina so the family wanted everyone to get together for pictures! We thought it was the perfect opportunity! so we had the photographer say "one two three...Shantel's Pregnant!" It was great!

Family Pictures

The other day We went to get family pictures done with Tysons family at Portrait Innovations and while we were there we got some done of just our family and Ty! I thought they turned out really cute! You tell me??...

Our Trip To Utah!

We recently returned from our trip to Utah, we had a really great time and were also able to vist one of Tysons friends, Kevin, while we were there! We spent much of our time at Temple Square (it was my 1st time there :) It was a great learning and Spiritual experience for us! There is so much to see and do there, it is just beautiful!
Also while we were in Utah we went to the Zoo, which Lil Ty absoluty loved! He looked at all of the animals with such fasination! We went to Antelope Island to see the Great Salt lake, visited the Planetarium, Liberty Park and The Gateway center! It was a nice little getaway for us!
On our way home we stopped in twin falls had lunch, saw Shoshone Falls, and went to the Temple Open House!

LOVED IT!



I finished Breaking Dawn this morning! And I just have 2 words for it...LOVED IT! I can't tell you all how excited I was for Breaking Dawn to come out, I got Breaking Dawn at 12:00 AM when it realeased on Aug 2nd, after standing in line at walmart with my Sister in Law (Kara :) for about 45 min! :) . I know I shouldn't be acting like a teenager, but once I started with the series I was hooked. It being the longest book i ever read, i did pretty good with time, although a few things got neglected, everyone survived!:) This book was so much different than I expected, but in amazingly good ways. Although I am sad that the series is over...sigh...

I have to say that this book has taught me so much about life, love, sacrifice, and about what's really most important. It's helped me realize that becoming the person I want to become isn't something that is going to just happen on it's own.Anything that is worth having (or becoming) is worth fighting for. I'm not a person that usually gets symbolism or hidden meanings very well, but after finishing this book I just got It! And it really made me think!

I wish all of you out there happy reading, and let me know what you think when you're done. If the book starts to freak you out a little like it did me, I promise it'll be all worth it in the end :). I don't know if all of you will get the same things out of it that I did, but at the very least you'll hopefully appreciate and love your family more. Plus you'll get a heck of a great story!
