another amazing year...

It was not only my 21st birthday, but a very special anniversery for Logan and I. It was just a little over 2 years ago that he phoned dad, and asked if he could have his daughter, and then just 2 years ago last night that he asked me to marry him over a piece of huckelberry cheesecake.
Holland Lake just before our engagement

21 and 34 weeks pregnant!
I had a WONDERFUL birthday yesterday! We woke up over coffee, bacon and blueberry pancakes with uncle Keith, who was bringing thru a load of hay. I got a really sweet card from Baby and Daddy, and enjoyed other birthday cards too. It was just a hot, but relaxing afternoon...and then after gospel meeting, us and Sierra McClain went down to cool off in the Blackfoot River. Yes...freezing, but sooo nice since it was 100! Then we met Ahsley Williams for pizza. On Saturday, Logan took me to Whippersnappers (my favorite kids store in case you forgot..) to pick out a Sprout Pouch (baby sling). So we had fun trying that on, and imagining our little baby in there. And then best of all, we had birthday cake that Logan made...with sprinkles and homemade frosting (that we made on a bunson burner cause our power was out for the afternoon. haha.) I couldn't have had a better birthday! Thanks to my husband, family and friends!
Speaking of birthdays...... :)

HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY COLE RYAN!

I didn't know Logan could bake - it is amazing what talent a good woman brings out in a man. I am wondering if the missing piece was from Logan checking to see if it was edible. Glad you had a good birthday....it really is the simple things in life that are the most satisfying!
