Happy Mothers Day!

These are a few pictures we took for Mothers Day presents for the grandma's in Kennedys life. I think they turned out really cute! Chris is quite the little photographer!

Happy Mothers Day to all of you cute little mothers out there!

Happy Easter!

This post is coming a little late, better late than never I guess! We had a great Easter weekend which we spent in St.George with our good friends the Moffits. Kennedy didn't know why she got a basket full of presents but loved all the stuff she found in her Easter basket anyway. We had a fun weekend, as we always do when we're in St. George!

She just learned how to say "cheese" so she's

hammin' it up in this picture!

Her first look at her Easter basket.

Books are Kennedy's favorite thing!

Later that night celebrating Easter at our house.

2009 Half Marathon & 5K

Congratulations to all those who ran in the Salt Lake Marathon, Half Marathon & even the 5K!

It's become a yearly tradition for my family to participate in this race. My mom & sister ran in the half and did an amazing job! Chris, Neil, Kennedy and I ran in the 5k (a knee injury took me out of the half this year) and a handful of other family members and great friends ran in it as well. We had a great time this year and are already looking forward to next year!

Chris, Kennedy and I at the start line for the 5k.

Outside Fun with Mom & Dad!

A couple of weeks ago we had 2 days of really nice weather so we decided to take Kennedy out to the basketball hoop in our complex and see how she liked playing with the ball. She loved being outside and playing with the ball, but only wanted to play in her bare feet. We had so much fun enjoying the nice weather (short lived, unfortunately) and can't wait for summer so we can do it everyday! I can tell she's going to be a basketball fan just like her mom and dad! (We'll keep our fingers crossed.)

We love our beautiful, happy little girl so much!

My cleaning habits must be rubbing off because the other day Kennedy went and got the bottle of Resolve and pretended to spray the floor and wipe it with her hand. It was so funny!

On the few warm days we've had so far Kennedy, Max & George love sitting by our front door and looking outside, and Kennedy loves playing with our shoes we leave there.

Our Trip to Arizona!

We made a trip to Arizona about a month ago (I'm a slacker at getting these pics up) for the wedding of Carlee Rogers, Chris's cousin who was married on February 6 to her new husband David. It was a beautiful backyard wedding and we were so happy we got to be there to share in on their special day. While we were there Andre, Chris's other cousing got his Eagle so we were lucky enough to get to be there for his court of honor. It was also Emme Rogers baptism while we were there so we got to attend that as well! It was a very full weekend with lots of family functions to attend. We did manage to squeeze in a Suns game which of course was a ball. Congratulations to Carlee & David, Andre, & Emmee! We love you all!

Thanks grandma & grandpa Jones for letting us stay at your house, we love spending time with you! Wish we could see you all the time!

Kennedy loves her cousin Brooke, she could make Kennedy laugh so hard.

Weekend Girls Trip to Vegas! (Without Kennedy...Ahh!)

Me and my three great friends Amy, Emily & Kelsey who I've known forever went on a weekend trip to Vegas. It'd been so long since we've gotten away together and we had such a blast! Just like old times, I don't think we stopped laughing the entire trip! It was my fist weekend away from Kennedy which was extremely hard for me but I tried to stay busy so I wouldn't think about it! I had a blast though, Thanks for a great weekend girls!
