Chris and I just got home from a wonderful vacation to Jackson Hole, Wyoming! We had a great excuse to go there- our friends Benton and Erin got married! Their wedding was beautiful and Jackson Hole is our new favorite place! We cannot wait to take Jenner there!


Chris- doing some rock climbing! (This picture is deceiving! HA!)

We went on - what we later found out to be an eight mile hike!! We thought it was just 2 miles there and 2 miles back...WRONG try four miles there and four miles back! We felt a real sense of accomplishment! This little guy suprised us on our trail!

When we got to the end of our hike- this is what we were rewarded with!

the hikers....

This is in Yellowstone National Forest...Snow still on the ground!
Here we are at Old Faithful!
There she blows.....
Yes...I am a dorky tourist!

Jill and I testing out the saddles at the Cowboy Bar

At the top of the Grand Teton Mountains!



Congratulations Benton and Erin!

All the SAEs...together again!
Jill, Jodi and I

Handsome couple Matt and Jodi...their BIG day is coming up!!

The lovely chapel in the woods!


Our horseback ride through the Grand Tetons! We are definitely "advanced" riders!

I swear, Jenner gets the camera shoved in his face so often that he automatically smiles now when I get it out!!! He is such a ham!! He is 7 months old now!

A few nights ago- I was getting ready to go to bed.. It was about 1am and I had been working around the house etc. Well, I always check the monitor right before I go to sleep- and this is what I found!! Jenner was sitting straight up in his bed watching his aquarium! This is the first time for him to sit up all by himself! I'm so glad we got a picture!


Last weekend Jenner got to spend alot of time with some of his "aunts"~ we had so much fun and were so glad Lauren and Brooke came in town for a special girls weekend!

Well, in just a few days my little man will be 7 months old! I cannot believe how fast it all goes by! We are having so much fun with Jenner! Chris can make that boy laugh so hard! He is such a wonderful Daddy! A month ago Jenner weighed 20 pounds! Wow- I've got a chub on my hands! He just thinks of it as a way to help me build my arm muscles!

Jenner wanted to make sure I included this picture! He wanted all his viewers to see his wonderful rolls...makes ya want to squeeze them doesn't it?

Yup, his belly hangs over his shorts!

We woke up one day a couple of weeks ago and Jenner had a tooth!! The next day, another one popped up!

We got Jenner a walker- he is discovering freedom and LOVES it!! He can go all over the house now! At first, he would only go backwards! So funny...I think he wanted to keep me in his viewing area!


Jenner and Chris- one of those Saturday morning "get in bed with mom and dad" rituals! They were laughing at my outfit, I think.


Babe got to come in a few weeks ago! We always have a great time when she is here! Jenner is becoming a great shopper! But we were thinking we need to start doing some "boy stuff" with him so he doesn't grow up to be an Interior Designer!

We went over to our friend Danese's house and had some coffee and muffins- this ritual dates all the way back to our younger years- we started this when I was about 10! What fun girl talk!
Danese introduced Jenner to a new friend! Hilarious...Jenner was patting his arm and really wanted some interaction with this kid!!
