Happenings...

So this post was so supposed to be full of the boat being re-carpeted, but as luck would have it, it rained ALL day Saturday. We woke up early and we could see the clouds, but it really hadn't rained all week. So we stopped by Home Depot and by the time we were ready to head out to the boat it was pouring! And it was socked in so we decided maybe not.

Instead we went to Snowflake to the temple, so next weekend will be boat weekend. And hopefully Kameron can get some done this week and get a head start on this giant project!!

So my parents have been going through this horrible house situation and just in the past week they went to court so a decision could be made over who owes what, yadyada...and they found out the they won the arbitration! This is a huge deal and it has caused my parents extreme stress. I'm so happy for them and for being honest and I just know the Lord was looking out for them. It was a very happy day when they got the good news!

So here is my sympathy paragraph, so beware:
Pregnancy is hard. I love feeling this little baby grow inside of me, but man! I feel like a cow a lot of the time. I can't breathe. It's like he sits in my diaphragm. And recently I've been having morning sickness! I thought it would go away after a week but it just comes and goes and it just is really hard. I'm tired. Oh and can I talk about indigestion/heart burn for a second? It hurts so bad it goes up into my jaw and I can't function. It stinks when I'm laying down to go to bed and acid starts seeping up into my throat and it burns and I just want to cry. And today! So my hand were swelling and I couldn't get my wedding ring off. So I'm at church in the primary room playing the piano and decided to take my ring off and set it there. Surprise! We leave and there is road work so we have to back track (I'll spare the details) we get home and I realize I've forgotten my Wedding Ring! Yikes. Long story short I got it back in one piece. Thanks Goodness! But honestly? Okay I'm done.

Kameron finally found out he is going to be running an afternoon route + Saturdays. Boo! But we are so blessed he even gets to keep his job and insurance. And it's only for three-ish months. Kameron says he is going to go into survival mode though. It's going to be a tough semester in A lot of ways. He's a trooper and I'm so grateful for a husband than works so hard.

So this is the only pic I have and it's not a good one, but I want to keep track of my "growth"


So here's me and Jeter at 30 weeks...
Oh, and the other night it felt like he was laying horizontal and pushing on my ribs? The pain was horrible! I took a bath and that helped, but oh man it was paiiinful! Sure will be nice to just have him here with us instead of in my belly!

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!

Summer Fun!

I feel like I have been Blogging all the time! I guess June has just been busy, busy!
I had my birthday (on father's day!) So Kameron's family came down and Cade and Caryn happened to be in Flagstaff too so we did a combined Father's Day/Birthday dinner for Cade and I. Dinner was delicious and I could have eaten Caryn's cake all by myself! But I resisted. I did get a book The Alliance, which I've already finished...Love it! It was an awesome birthday!

So after having to get through two days of work we headed off to Phoenix for our anniversary get-away! So worth it! The guy upgraded our room to a casita and it was right next to the pools, awesome! and we had a bunch of gift cards to some Yummy restaurants so we ate Good! Maybe a little Too good! The yummy cinnamon butter at Texas Road House and Apple Crisp desert at On the Border was wonderful!

So after our fun filled stay at Hilton Point at Squaw Peak, we headed into Mesa/Queen Creek for some family time!! Could this weekend get any better? At Janel's house we had a yummy dinner and cake and I got a some cute presents (pictures to come) and fun decorations. I love my crafty sisters and mom!
Here is Kam and I with my b-day cake and you can see the fun decorations hanging. So cute!

Bri and I are about 5ish weeks apart! So fun! Boys of course :)

More birthday fun...oh and don't forget the game of settlers!

So after all that excitement was Emily Martin's wedding on Saturday! She looked Gorgeous and I am just so happy for her! The wedding was beautiful and I'm so glad we were able to go and be there for that special occasion!!
This is me and Molli (and Jules chillin in the back) Don't know why we didn't get a picture with all of us? Too much wedding excitement going on I guess...

Last but not least Emily getting married...

It was just a wonderful week and we had so much fun! Now it's back to work. Not sure what the next fun trip will be? Hopefully some family time. That's always the best!

Mrs. Almost Lunt and 80th Birthday's

A couple of weekends ago our dearest friend Emily had her bridal shower!! I'm so glad we made the trip to Mesa. It's so good to see old friends. And next weekend (June 26th) we will go to her wedding!! Exciting!
The next weekend we traveled to Southern Utah for Kameron's grandma's 80th Birthday party. I love going there, it's like this oasis. We ate lots of yummy food and pretty much just had a fun relaxing weekend with family. Turns out there are Eight grand babies coming this year...yes eight. wow. Here is Kam and I at the big party for Grandma Johnson.

Tina (Kameron's mom) was in charge of lunch on Saturday! It turned out SO good. Pulled pork sandwiches with homemade BBQ sauce and delicious coleslaw (which I don't usually eat but this was Good coleslaw!) Yumm. Here's Caryn and I, I think we are like...5 weeks apart..somewhere around there, Thanks for the picture Caryn! I was kinda lame-o when it came to taking pictures...I need to take more pictures!

On Sunday we headed back to real life. Bummer. But that's okay, life just keeps rolli'n! Our little baby is grow'in strong! Nice to get punches in the stomach at 2AM. It's a love tap right? But really it's so exciting to feel this life growing inside me! I need to cherish the newness of it all. Kameron's summer school is going good. Oh and this coming week we are headed to a resort in North Phoenix for a couple of days because...it's my birthday on the 20th! yay 22! and our 3rd anniversary...! and our last big hurrah! before we have a baby and fun, easy trips become non existent. That about sums it up though, laying by the pool here I come!
