Our California Trip!

SOOOO we set out for California on Thursday July 12th, we'd already experienced issues with our return flight through allegiant air, had to lose money and get vouchers...which we probably wont use, ugh, but i got over it and came to grips that we'd have to drive back. The drive really wasnt that bad and I got to put my feet on Brock whenever my feet started to swell. So we were super excited and we stopped in St. George for the night, at 3am Annabelle started throwing up! Poor baby threw up all night and twice in the car when we left the next day. We arrived in San Diego friday night and Saturday morning I started throwing up....then saturday night Brock started throwing up, Sunday morning Brocks brother started throwing up! What a way to start the vacation! Good news was they each only lasted about 12 hours and we were lucky we all got sick on non work/ or play days. So we were blessed. Monday we went to Seaworld, then everyone worked tuesday, wednesday we went to Disneyland, Thursday we worked, Friday we worked then went to the beach and Coronado Island, Saturday we worked then we headed back to st. george and got home on Sunday. We were all exhausted! Annabelle stayed at Brocks parents sunday night because I had to do my fast and glucose drink early monday morning :( yuck! And I got the wonderful news that I have gestastional diabetes...so now I have to get on a low carb diet. Hopefully I dont end up having a gianormous baby...scary. Anyway here are some pics from the trip!

Mormon Batallion- This was such a cool exhibit, I had never heard this story before but it was soooo good! I recommend it to anyone going to San Diego.

Me and My Baby!

Annabelle LOVED Sea World, Grandma Searle says shes going to be a Marine Biologist someday :)

Looking at the whales

So what more could Annabelle ask for then to have an Elmo theme park inside of Sea World, as she waited in line with Grandma she kept saying "MO!"

Annabelle even got to meet Elmo! Right now shes pointing to this picture saying, "Elmo!!"

So amazing! I got to touch a Dolphin!

Annabelle with Belle! I love this picture!

Annabelle's favorite ride was "It's a Small World" She bounced and danced the entire time.

Annabelle got a Belle Doll and she just loves it!

Memorial Day Hike!

Seems like this Memorial Day weekend we had so many plans, and all of them kept changing. We orginally planned to hike the wind caves...but it was going to snow there...so we decided to go to the cabin...but Brock's Uncle was at the cabin with his family...Then we decided to hike Iron Bog and possibly camp out. It was too cold so we settled for a Day hike to Iron Bog...We started out the day with chocolate chip peanut butter pancakes! mmmmm!

Brocks family, us, Karly, Wade, & Wade's Dad drove up to Iron Bog and Guess what we found?! A sign saying the bridge was out! We were a couple miles from our destination...Plans changed again. So we decided to just stop where we were, get the dutch oven going thanks to Brock's Dad and go on an adventure hike...meaning we didn't really know where we were headed haha. It was really great until we hit this patch that was super thick with these branches that had thorns, but we got passed it and i'm proud to say that I did the hike being 5 months pregnant!

Annabelle fell asleep twice on the hike, it was super cute

Well my computer is taking soooo long that this is all i'm uploading for now.

Oh Annabelle

Annabelle decided to get in the diaper bag and have a snack! She loves cereal!

She grabbed a shirt off the table and put it on her head, so cute

This is Annabelle's obsession! She can't quite reach the peddles but she loves to sit on her tricycle and loves it even more when she gets pushed around!

While Brock was at school we discovered flour :)
