Salt Lake City Marathon 2010

When we went home to Idaho for Coulson's Birthday, Nate ran the 1/2 marathon with his brother Greg. It was Nate's first time running in a marathon. We were so proud of him!
Coulson and I got up early that morning and went and cheered them on in a couple locations!
Here we were at the half way point...
They were nice enough to stop and take a couple pictures with us. Coulson was so cute, he waited patiently and kept watching for Nate to ran by. He was so excited to see him!
Off again!
Here they come... almost to the finish line!
Nate was sweet enough to come get Coulson from me the last couple of yards and let him cross the finish line with him. I thought I got a picture, but I must have been too busy video tapping!
Refueling after the race!
Great Job Boys! You did it!!
We love you Daddy and are so proud of you!

Cleveland Cavs VS Boston Celtics (Game 1)

We had a really fun past weekend. Nate got us tickets to go to game 1 of the NBA play-offs between the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Boston Celtics. (Our 2 favorite teams, given we have lived in both cities now!!) The ticket office messed up our tickets, so we were able to get some Benchwarmer Passes, which means we got to sit in the player's seats and watch them warm up until it was time to start. It was so awesome to be that close. Coulson loved it! He just kept saying, "Ball, Ball, Ball!!"
For Coulson's birthday, (which I will post about next) we got him a little Lebron James Jersey! He looked so cute it in!!

They had lots of little fun things to do and see outside before the game started...
The Cavalier Dancers...

Coulson was just dying to go out on the court and get a ball.
Then one of the players was so sweet to roll him a ball! He was so excited! Then we had to roll it back, darn it!
Looks like the excitement wore him out!! (See 2nd video below!!)


The video below is when they came out onto the Court. We got to high five them, which was pretty cool! Shaq is the second to last one and Lebron is the last one out!


This news clip was on the news the night of the game. Coulson made it on the news and didn't even know it, because he was fast asleep. They show a shot of him at 1 min 37 sec. So fun!!


P.S. Did I mention we made it on the Jumbo Tron (the big screen in middle of the arena) twice!!!

Easter Fun... (lots of pictures!)

This Easter we had a lot of fun! Coulson is at a fun age where he is trying to figure everything out! I am all about holidays so we tried to do as many fun activities as possible. Here are a few...

Coloring Easter Eggs with our friends, The Friends...

These two little ones are best friends! Claire is 7 months and Coulson is 11 months.

At the Easter Egg Hunt...




Visiting the Easter Bunny... Coulson was terrified of him just like Santa Claus!

And then on Sunday morning we had a sweet surprise... Coulson and Claire had made the front page of the Newspaper!! So cute!!


Happy Easter!!

Our Baby...

I don't know if we could love this little boy anymore. He is the center of our world. He brings us so much joy. He is keeping us busy these days. He walks everywhere now and goes up and down the stairs all day. We love his new little expressions he makes every day. We love you Coulson!

Thanks to our awesome Brother-in-Law and Sister for taking these adorable pictures. We love them! These were actually takin in December, I have just had issues with our internet so Coulson is only 8 months. Can you believe he will be 1 year on April 15th, crazy!!

Aaron and Ashley's Big Day...

We are back to normal life! Coulson and I flew out to Idaho the middle part of February for my little brother's big day! It was a beautiful day! We had a wonderful time being with family and friends.






As you can tell, Coulson was ready for nap time! He was a trooper though through all the crazy wedding things he had to go through!
We just wanted to tell Aaron and Ashley congrats again and we are so happy for you! Aaron, I can't believe you are married. Thanks for always being my little "big" brother and always being there for me. Ashley, we are so excited to have you in our family and to gain another sister to hang with. We love you both!!
