More Pics with Grammie and Road Dawg

So we were determined to keep the Grandparents busy during this visit. We took the time and the chance to do a whirlwind Washington, DC city tour. We decided to do a bus tour so that we could at least see all of the major sites but not worry about the traffic and the endless walking. Just because DC is a compact city does not mean that the walk is easy. We got a chance to see a whole lot on the tour like Ford Theater, the Vice Presidents residence, the famous wax museum, Georgetown, Embassy row, and countless other sites.

We hopped off at the Lincoln Memorial and walked around the area so that my parents could get a better look and be tourist for a little while. It was excellent! My children have not become acclimated to the walking and there we little to no whining (yeahhhh!). My Dad was so excited and it was great to see him enjoy his vacation (he is such a history buff). We had a couple of hiccups at the end of the tour, but no worries. We ended the night and my parents vacation with dinner out at the Famous Phillips seafood buffet restaurant. Needless to say we all made it home stuffed but happy, even my picky eaters!

Overall it was a great time having my parents around!

Beautiful Utah

Beautiful Utah
This is just one of the beautiful views we have in Tooele, Utah. It is so amazing seeing the mountains everyday. When I look at the mountains, I can only think God is amazing.

Waiting for Nicholas

Waiting for Nicholas
Since we have been iin Utah, I have been waiting on my last child. One of the first rooms that was completed was Nic's room. I can't wait for his arrival and I can't believe how close we are to seeing his beautiful face.

Jason always looks so good in his uniform. It has been 9 years in and he still looks like a 2nd LT.

Nicholas is actually in this picture in a way, I am about 6 months pregnant. These pictures were to get a snapshot of our family before our last child was born.
