Prego Belly Shirt

Isn't this shirt cute? My sister has a friend that designed these shirts and has a website that sells them in California. I guess they are a big hit there and some of the movie stars have even bought them. I am now 28 weeks and the baby is growing tons. She loves to kick and move my belly around a lot. I have been so lucky in how well this pregnancy has been going. I haven't had any real problems physically with it. Only 12 more weeks left!

Memorial Day

For Memorial Day Steve and I went to some of his family's grave sites. It really nice to be able to do this and spend the time talking about some of his family members that have passes away. I didn't grow up really doing that, and so I have only done it one year with all my family members in California. Someday I would love to go back and do the same thing. We also decided to go and visit President Hinckley's grave, especially since this is the first Memorial Day that he hasn't been around. We didn't know exactly where it was and so we drove around the cemetary until we found it. Luckily, it didn't take us too long to find it. His tall memorial headstone (not really the headstone, but I don't know what you call it) is made out of stone from the Salt Lake Temple and Conference Center. I thought this was so cool that they were able to do that. Of course lots of people had put flowers over his grave. So many, in fact, that you couldn't even see his headstone or Marjorie's very well. There were letters from what looked like small children placed over his grave too. He is definitely a missed prophet from people of all ages.

My Nasty Bike Accident

Last Monday, the 19th, I was riding home from school to go visit Melanie. I was riding down a sidewalk up at the University of Utah and I was going kind of fast. I went down and caught a little bit of air and the force of me landing made the screws to the wheel of my bike break off. I BIFFED it hard core. I flew off the bike and landed on my arm, shoulder, and head. Thankfully I was wearing a helmet. I was in complete shock when it happened, but I was able to get up despite all the pain and check myself to see if I was okay. I was in a lot of pain of course; so, I called Melanie and she came and picked me up and took me home. She was a great nurse; she cleaned me up and put bandages all over me. As you can see I have scrapes and cuts all over from my head all the way down to my knees and feet. When the accident happened my back hurt really bad and Melanie was really worried that I had seriously injured it. So we went to Instacare and got an x-ray and thankfully everything was okay. This past week has been a painful recovery, but every day I feel a lot better than the previous.

Hawaii

Steve and I went to Hawaii with my parents for 12 nights. We went to Oahu and the Big Island. While we were on Oahu we were able to spend a couple of days with his cousins B, Jenny and Rex. It was fun to see them since it has been over a year. We were able to do many fun activities such as, go to the polynesian cultural center, go to both temples, see Pearl Harbor, tour the waterfalls and volcanoes, be beach bums, and celebrate our 2nd anniversary. For our anniversary we went out to a really nice dinner at the Hilton hotel. The hotel was really cool because we had to take a boat over to the restaurant where we passed by some dolphins. Neither of us had ever spent that much on a dinner before, but it was definitely worth it. Hawaii is just expensive like that. Just for an idea, we had 4 jumbo macadamia nut shrimp for our appetizer which costed $18. They sure know how to work the tourists. The trip was a blast and the weather was perfect. This was our great last blast of a trip before Kaitlyn joins us in August and we will take trips as the 3 of us.
