Pickles

Daphne loves pickles. It's funny to me how much she really loves them. She'll eat a whole plateful of sliced pickles. I tried to get a picture of the sour face she makes when she eats them, but this was the best I could do. I love my little angel!

Anniversary Getaway

Andrew and I love to go away for our anniversary every year to the same spot. We go to the condo our work has near Park City. This past anniversary was no different. We packed up all our stuff and Daphne and spent a few days there this past March for our third anniversary. (Yes, I'm still trying to catch up. :) ) We had a really good time, just hanging out and going to Park City for a day. Daphne really enjoyed playing there and hanging out in her pajamas. She had a few meltdowns, but even her sad faces are cute. I hope it's a tradition we can keep!

All Grown Up!

No, I'm not talking about Andrew or me....we still have some growing up to do. It's our little girl I'm talking about! She's two already! It's so crazy how fast time goes by.

She already loves to dress up in Mommy's clothes.

And Daddy's...

And more of Mommy's...

This is her "beard" she likes to wear

She loves to just hang out with Mommy and Daddy.

And get her hair done all pretty by her Aunt Kristen. It even matches her baby doll.

The cutest, sweetest little girl ever!

Catch Up

I finally downloaded all of my pictures from my camera, and I am really embarrassed to find that I have pictures all the way from last Christmas up until now! I think it really is time for me to do a little catching up, mostly for me, to help me remember this last year. I think it will be really slow-going, but I'm going to start with last Christmas, and catch up as fast as I can. So here I go....

Daphne's gorgeous Christmas outfit that I just had to get for her. Isn't she cute? :)

She loves balloons, so we got her some for Christmas.

She loved gazing up at them, but was a little afraid to play with them.

She got a new chair and a big teddy bear too.

She really liked her teddy bear. She still loves to sit him down in her old car seat and buckle him in. I hope you all had a good Christmas ten months ago! :)

Photo Book

I know it's been forever since I've posted. I keep hearing about it from everyone. :) We're still here and everything is going well. I'll post an update on our family soon, but until then, here's Daphne's photo book from her first year that I finally finished! Enjoy!

Lagoon

I found this post that I started forever ago. We went to Lagoon with my sister, Rosie, and her family last August I think it was. It was a lot of fun. So here are some pictures from that, even though it happened about nine months ago. :)

Family Reunions Galore!

Andrew and I both had lots of family reunions going on in July and August. It was so fun getting together with our families so much! I wanted to take lots of pictures to remember them by, so just a warning this is picture overload time!

Daphne had so much fun swinging with her Aunt Kristen at the Hansen Reunion!

Andrew had fun swinging too. :)

Our family at the Hendriksen Reunion up Hobble Creek Canyon. Daphne got car sick on the way up, so we had to change her into her pajamas a little early.

My cute hubby!

Daphne chilling with Grandma. I love that she sticks her tongue out like that!

Daphne finally got to meet her Aunt Robyn and Uncle Eric! They live in Ohio and had to leave to go home just before she was born last year, so I was excited she got to meet them.

Daphne had so much fun playing with cups at the Hill Reunion we had at the Girl's Camp above Heber. Her cousin Ethan was nice enough to keep picking them up for her when she dropped them and she thought it was hilarious!

Playing with Aunt Kristen

My cousin, Ashley and her daughter, Kayley playing with Daphne. Kayley kept giving her kisses, it was so cute! Daphne loves playing with other little kids!

Playing with Daddy in the cabin

Campfire in my parent's backyard so we could make s'mores! We had so much fun playing with Robyn and Eric's family while they were here!

My mom and sisters

Daphne just before she went swimming for the first time as part of the Shurtz Family Reunion.

Daphne's first time in the pool!

Andrew and Daphne with Andrew's sister, Jordan and her daughter, Ellie playing in the pool. Jordan brought that little floaty thing and Daphne really liked sitting in it!

She loved going around the pool with her daddy.

My sisters and I don't get to be all together very often, so every time we are we like to take a picture of us all. This was in my parent's backyard the night before Robyn and Eric left for home.

Our little family at Jordanelle for the little vacation we went on with my parents and siblings.

Daphne having fun hanging out with Aunt Mel

We rented a wave runner at Jordanelle. Andrew really liked driving it! It was lots of fun to ride on!

We went to Antelope Island as part of this vacation, on the way there we stopped to see this. It's called Devil's Slide. Just an interesting rock formation that my parents saw when they were on their honeymoon, so they wanted to stop to see it again.

We had so much with our families at all of these reunions and trips! Thanks to everyone for all the hard work and planning that went into all of them! We love you all!
