Fish and Babies

So this post is made up of a lot of different events and some randomness...First off is our little fishing adventure in Flagstaff to a little pond. Kameron caught a big catfish!!! some small other ones and than a bunch of people showed up (right after the rain clouds cleared) but it was really fun and I even caught a really pretty sun fish!

Hook, String, and Corn=sun fish fun!
Me working on my BBQ skills...
Next fun thing was putting together the crib...we were going to wait a while before starting all of that (not sure why) but anyways, Kameron got real mad at his Football game and so when I got home he was taking out the broken pieces and getting rid of the old TV upstairs, so it seemed like a good time to just put everything together are redo the room!

Thanks to Grandma Ewell's awesome garage-sale-ing we got this awesome crib for free!!

This past weekend we had Brianna's baby shower down in Mesa/Queen Creek. It was a seriously quick trip but SO fun! Janel is just awesome awesome at decorating and going the extra mile!! For example this adorable diaper cake, and later this table was surrounded by delicious chicken salad sandwiches and salads and fruits and mom's yummmy cheese ball. Heaven!

Oh and I cannot forget The best (and I'm not exaggerating) chocolate cupcakes. They are actually sheet cake? with frosting made out of flour...thanks Pioneer Woman for letting us in on this secret.

Me and Brianna

The ladies...
It was so much fun seeing Brianna's friends (who were always in our house growing up, like family) and friends from Harris 2nd, and long lost family!!! Bri got some Super cute stuff and just made everything way to real! Little Killian is due September 9th!!!
I have to admit it made my due date seem too far away, and I can't wait for my baby shower in September. I can't wait to see what Janel can put together for baby Jeter! Oh did I mention we kinda chose a name...? Jeter Davis (Jee-ter). Yes, yes I know it's different and it is the name of a Yankee, but we like it and it just seems to fit, it's hard to explain. But we like it (and if he comes into this world not a Jeter we have other names on the back burner)
We don't have much going on after all this eventful stuff, we are getting The Boat fixed. We've brought that thing back from the dead so many times, but we are determined to make this time last a lot longer and put it to good use in the future! Should be done sometime in August, so I'll post pictures of the final project!

Visit to Thatcher

Last weekend we got to go to Thatcher! It was a quick trip but we had a great time with family and just hanging out. Kameron and I went to the Gila Valley Temple saturday morning, and we went crawdad (spelling?) fishing on friday when we got there, took all the little kiddos too fun fun!

Emmers and I



Kameron decided to throw the crawdad at everyone it didn't survive the crash landing and after they stopped biting, it was fun while it lasted though!

We stayed up laaate so on Saturday I took and nap and LuLu decided to join me...

Game time!

Us girls on Sunday, I can already see that sad look in my eye...until next time Thatcher...

Outdoor Adventures!

This Fourth of July we went fishing in Williams and pretty much just hung out at home. We had a lot of fun fishing (especially because Kameron caught some fish!) And he's had his parents quad so he's been out scouting, one of his favorite past times...here are some pictures...

Yummy peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for the road

Kameron finally got me to go out with him on the quad. It was fun being outdoors and all but by the end my body was DONE being bounced around! I think that was my last quad ride for a while. We had a fun time though, only saw one elk but Flagstaff does have one good thing: pretty scenery.

Kam on the quad

The happy couple
While we were out Kameron's dad and little brothers (Tanner and Sam) came to Flagstaff for some fishing.
Kameron had to work Saturday but we were able to drive out to Williams that afternoon and go fishing with them.

Kameron's trout, it was a good size too!

Russ with his monster trout!

Sadly the fish swallowed the hook and had to be taken home to Cottonwood (notice all the little fish...fertilizer for their garden)

So we had a really good time, no fireworks though. Too many fires up here in Flagstaff. On Monday I had the opportunity to clean, like really clean, the house while Kameron went to work. Not such a good idea for the pregnant bod, but it's all good.
So this weekend we've kinda spontaneously decided to go to Thatcher. Emily is coming to AZ (can't get enough of the people she was so anxious to be rid of) :) we are pretty awesome haha. But it should be fun going to Thatcher spending time with family!
