Chi Omegas come to London!!

It was so fun to have a slumber party with Sheridan and Alicia on their last night of their world wide summer tour. Their visit was short, but oh so sweet.We did have time just before they went to the theater to hit up a really dingy Chinese take-out place that Ty loves.
Thanks for the sleep over girls! Come back any time!!

Visit from the Thuesons...and Jill's amazing photography skills

It was so fun to have Kev, Jill and Joey in London for the summer. We wish they would've stayed forever. But lucky for us , they spent their last night at our place.

At the beginning of the summer I told Jill that I had this idea in my head of some cute 'London' things to put in the babe's room. I couldn't describe exactly what I wanted, but somehow she read my mind and photographed these things and turned them into wall art. She is so talented, I absolutely LOVE this wall art. If I knew how to put a link into a post, I would. But since I don't, you should just go to 'Jillyn Photography' on my list of blogs.
Here are some close-ups...

And this map is from Portobello Road and will go perfect with Jill's work...still need to find a frame for it.

Pregnancy Yoga

I've been going to this pregnancy yoga class that is amazing. I highly recommend it for any of you pregnant ladies out there. I have to admit that it is a little out there- from the Dalai lama statues and burning incense to the chanting and bowing to your baby- but I still love it. I have been going with a group of girls from my antenatal class. It is a blast. Here is a picture of some of us- all due within a few weeks of each other and all about ready to pop!

Congratulations Winston and Candace!!

Ty said the wedding was such a blast. Thank to Scott and Minda for taking the pictures and sending them to me because I sent Ty with a camera and, as I suspected, he never got it out of his bag.

Happy Anniversary!!

Today we celebrated our 3rd anniversary! I can't believe how fast the time has flown by. Unfortunately we didn't celebrate together because Ty is in Utah for his brother Winston's wedding. I think it's true that distance makes the heart grow fonder because I miss him more than ever today. I've been thinking of different memories and decided to write a favorite one from each year of our marriage so far:

2005:

Our wedding day. It was the best day of my life, I am so lucky to be married to my best friend. The whole day felt like a party. Tyler surprised me by having a lunch all packed for us- he already knew me so well...I never skip a meal, not even for wedding pictures.

2006:

All the long talks we had on the drive up Provo canyon to go snowboarding. We spent almost every weekend of the winter up in Midway snowboarding, studying and playing scrabble.

2007:

Ty teaching me to skip rocks into the sea in Greece while his hair was in a pony tail. I remember so vividly watching him and loving how just skipping rocks made him so happy.

Here's to a great first 3 years love!!

More from our trip to Utah and California

Swimming with Grandma Gloria


We love California! We couldn't get enough of the beach down there- it made us excited to move back there!

Ty and I out 'surfing'- I, of course, did not catch any waves- or even paddle for that matter- but it felt so good to just sit out there on a board and enjoy the ocean. I wish this was a side shot so you could see how ridiculous I looked trying to balance with this watermelon I'm carrying around these days!

My Mom and Dad surfing

Doheny Beach


Mr. Mohawk...isn't he a dream boat?


All the girls decided to stay an extra week in Balboa after the men left to go back and work. We had dogs and s'mores on the beach for dinner one night- it was a blast.

Snarfing down the dogs with Grandma Miriam

Betsy was the s'more MASTER! She made this contraption with hangers so she could hold it in the fire and let the chocolate melt onto the roasted mallow...mmmm

Owen after loving his first s'more

The trip wouldn't have been complete without eating at the Crab Cooker!

It was so fun to see friends and family at home. Thank you to everyone for coming to showers and making the time to visit with us! We're happy to be back in London and now are just getting ready for little Mr. Handsome to come!!

Home to Utah!!

We had a great trip home to the USA, just in time for the 4th of July. It felt so good to be back in the states. We packed in alot of fun in our time home, here are some highlights...

I had to take a picture of this meal- Scott is an amazing chef, he made so many different delicious dishes

After our time in Utah we headed to the beach in Newport- it was so fun to just lounge at the beach everyday with my family. I'll post some pictures soon.
