Visitors are Welcome!

I am trying out a new setup of blogging so this might be jumbled. Jeter looks so cute in hats! I love when we wears his baseball hat!

It was my birthday on the 20th. We had a nice quiet birthday celebration complete with chocolate pudding pie (which I love for some reason) So here is to making my year of 23 one of the best!


 We had a special visitor too! Julie Ann Ellerman! She hasn't met Jeter yet and so she stopped by on her way home from Thatcher! I love this girl, she's been an awesome friend for many years and it was so much fun spending the afternoon with her. Julie also holds a special place in our hearts because she pretty much introduced Kameron and I four years ago...

 That's where this picture leads to, is our 4 year anniversary! June 22nd. Kameron got me some beautiful flowers! (I love getting flowers!) I love Kameron so much he is the most wonderful husband! Mainly because he puts up with me and is such a wonderful father and provider. He makes me so happy and love him so, so much!
 Jeter does cry...
 Our next visitors were Cade, Caryn and Conner. Kameron's brother. They spent the weekend with us, we went to the Gila Valley temple and the lake and enjoyed some yummy Mexican food!

Conner and Jeter playing in the crib. It's so fun to see how each baby is developing at their own pace.

Jeter is funny with other babies. He just kind of stares at them like "who, what? Why are you making those noises?" it's so funny! He's kinda like his mom, just takes him a while to warm up to strangers.

 Cade, Kam, Jeter and I went to the lake on Saturday. I love the lake. Boats are expensive but we always have such a fun time!! Jeter was a little nervous about the whole water thing but he loved it by the end of the day!
 So I wakboarded! Never done it in my life and decided it was about time! It took me several times but the guys were patient and good teachers and was out of the water pretty fast! Every muscle in my arms and back were screaming the next day! But I am way excited to go again!
 Kam getting some air...

 Cade showing off some sweet skills...
 Jeter loves being outside! He was so good on the boat and as long as I kept sunscreen on the sun wasn't a problem. We really just had such a fun day!

Wrinkle Toes

Jeter loves spending time in the sink. The other day he spent atleast an hour in the sink and so Jeter had his first set of wrinkle toes!

I went to Thatcher last weekend because Kameron was in Tucson for work. We had a fun time just enjoying Thatcher!


For my brithday I got a bed makeover! Love it! Courtesy of a mesa trip with the DeRusha girls!


The other day we put Jeter in the pantry. He had fun with the new adventure!




We are still getting used to the warm weather, poor Jeter's little hot cheeks!


Maybe if I post enough funny pictures of Kameron he will smile for the camera once in a while...




We love when everyday items become the new toy!


Yup, still drooling!


Jeter enjoys a pickle now and then which gives you a 20 minute break!

River Adventure and House

We went to the Salt River last weekend. Kam was talking to someone who takes his kids there so we thought we would try it out. It was so much fun getting out into the warm weather and getting to play in the water. Kameron tried fishing and got a bite or two but didn't catch anything. Next time! Jeter Loved the Water! He was a little unsure at first but ended up loving it! Even playing in the sand was fun. We had a yummy subway lunch and just enjoyed the afternoon, and hopefully we will be visiting the river again soon.

Testing out the water...



He's thinking about liking it...haha silly boy.


playing in the sand




warming up after playing hard!


We were only out there for about 2 hours but Kam and I were able to get a nice rosy glow on our backs. Jeter had sun block on, sucha smartie :)

Here's a little J just slobbering away. I swear this kid could go through his entire wardrobe in one day because of all the drool! No teeth yet though...


Jeet showing he knows how to lounge!


Here's some pictures of the house. It's a three bedroom 1 3/4 bath. I love living in a house and hope I never have to go back to apartment living. Of course there are bads to living in a house than an apartment but I like house living much better!
Family Room:


Kameron calls the area on the right my "music corner". Too bad I don't spend enough time there!


Kitchen:


Jeter's Room:


The other room is boring and my bedroom needs a serious makeover.


Backyard: This is actually a fairly large backyard. It has lots of gardening in the back and a big shed that didn't make it into the pictures.


The garden I didn't help plant but wouldn't mind eating from:


Front view:



I would probably never paint my house this color but I'm ok with it. So that's that!


We are into one of my most favorite months!! June!! Special events--my brithday 20th, 4 year anniversary 22nd. Lots of other peoples birthdays which just makes it such a fun month! And it's summer time which is always a fun time of year!!

A New Chapter

These past weeks have been busy! We moved to Globe with no problem. Besides the snow falling on us as we packed up our apartment in Flagstaff. We love the home we are staying in! I still need to take pictures. We will be here until August for sure, but than it depends on Kameron's work. Moving again in three months doesn't sound fun At All! We really like our location and the feel of the small town life!
Jeter all ready for church on our first Sunday.

We also have a nice lawn to enjoy! Complete with porch chairs, flowers and a humming bird feeder!!

The space of a house is something I will never take for granted again. And not having stairs.


We let Jeter spend some fun time in his new high chair. He loves being high and seeing everything!


Taking a bath in the sink! A new fun thing for us to do!


After we got settled in for a week we were off to Cottonwood for Tanner's graduation from high school. It was fun spending time with the Johnson's and the even made the trip to Globe the next morning and spent the day with us.





Jeter knows what to do for the camera! It's so funny, he always smiles and it makes for some cute, cute pictures!


For Memorial Day we headed to Thatcher and had a BBQ and got to see some family.


And take another bath in the sink....


Paige and I enjoying a yummy BBQ meal complete with chocolate cake. (which Paige really enjoyed)


My Uncle Digger was down from Minnesota and we had a fun time seeing him. He's always fun to spend time with!!


Kameron is having a good experience so far at Freeport. The folks we rent from planted a garden in the space next to the house so hopefully we have a fun learning experience with that. We really like it here and I will get pictures up soon of the new place!
