More Pictures!

Here are more, or I guess there is more below these. I couldn't get them all on the same post...

Here are some of our recent family pictures. We wanted to get some of just the 3 of us before the new baby comes but we included her in some too. Enjoy :)

Just a little update...

Alright my few readers, I'm updating. Although I don't have any pictures to update with so it'll be short and sweet.

We're moved in and settled, it's easy when you don't have much furniture...

Anyway, we really like our ward here. We have felt especially welcomed and they put us right to work. Our second or third week I was called as a primary sunbeam teacher and not long after that Tyler was called as the elder's quorum president. So we, especially Tyler, have been busy! (Since it is also busy season for Tyler at work).

Emri and I went to Utah for a couple weeks in March, we had fun visiting with family but Emri was sick and weaning so it was kind of tough, but we had lots of help and we made it through!

It is getting really hot here, we hit 100 this week, a little too early but hopefully it'll cool down again before it gets SUPER hot!

Stay tuned, maybe I'll get the picture situation figured out...

NEW pictures, taken yesterday! Tyler had a presidency meeting after church so Emri and I played in the courtyard while we waited. She LOVED pulling the grass...

Mommy and Me Photo Shoot

I'm way behind on posts, so the next few will probably be chronologically incorrect. So here it goes!

These are some pictures Emri and I had taken when she was 6 months old. She has changed so much!

Another Yummy Recipe: Oatmeal Bars

1/4 tsp salt

1 cup brown sugar

3/4 cup butter, softened

1 tsp vanilla

1/4 cup milk

2 cups quick oats

1 1/4 cups semisweet chocolate chips

1. Heat oven to 375. Coat an 8 x 8 x 2 inch pan with nonstick cooking spray.

2. In a small bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together. In a large bowl, beat sugar and butter on med-high until fluffy. Beat in vanilla. Reduce speed to low and beat in milk, then flour mixture. Stir in oats and 1 cup of the chocolate chips.

3. Spread batter into prepared baking pan. Bake at 375 for 35 minutes or until wooden pick comes out clean. Cool completely on a wire rack. Microwave remaining 1/4 cup chocolate chips for 30 seconds; stir until smooth and drizzle over bars. Cut into squares. Makes 16 bars. Enjoy!

Two Year Anniversary Adventures

Yesterday was our 2 year anniversary so we decided to go up to Silver Flatts, where Tyler proposed. We hiked around the lake, it was so beautiful up there and we had fun taking Emri.

The photos are all out of order, I couldn't figure out how to fix that. Oh well. :)

Ty and the babe hiking.

Emri sleeping on the way home.

This is the chunkiest looking picture we have of her to date. For some reason she always turns out looking extra chunky in pictures... but still so cute!

Emri started to fuss toward the end, wanted mommmm.
