Peach Days

I am really delayed on my posts, but here are some pictures of Brigham City Peach Days. Kimballs came up to spend the weekend with us and the kids had so much fun together.Jocelyn was exhausted after the big day of rides, parade, and walking around.


I couldn't get a good picture of Jocelyn on the train because she was to small so we couldn't see her over the side very well.
Bri and the girls in line for the merry-go-round.

Girls having fun together

Lexie and Jocelyn have been so cute together lately. They play really well together (most of the time). Here are just a bunch of different shots of them together.










Idaho Falls Zoo

We haven't taken Jocelyn to the zoo since she was younger and didn't care to much so we were excited to see how she would react to all the animals. This is her talking to a llama. She was so happy the whole time, and really cute.








Lexie was all tuckered out after the trip. She had to keep her glasses on though because it was way to sunny she said.

These faces are just priceless. Jocelyn and Jaxton (my nephew) both look crazy.

Williams Family Reunion

My grandma Davis and her brothers and sisters have had a reunion since the 1960's or something like that so it has always been something that I have always looked forward too. I haven't been for awhile since I have been in Iowa so it was great to go again. Lexie and Jocelyn got these hats in a raffle they had so Bri and Jocelyn had to show them off. Lexie's head is peaking up right there.
We attempted a nap for Jocelyn in our tent and it was way to hot so we found some shade and put her down and she slept for 4 hours. Camping was really hard on her.


Aunt Heather and Jocelyn coming out of the slide. She just went down a couple of times and that was good enough for her.
Bri and Lexie coming out of the slide. This is first of many trips down the slide for her. I bought her an additional 10 slide pass and she used those up and the workers just let her continue going down because she was having so much fun.


They both had to have lifejackets since they were under a certain height and they looked so cute.

Family Pics

The clinic that Brian works at has been wanting a picture of our family to hang up on a board they have there so we tried to get a few pictures. It is difficult to have both girls cooperate at the same time.




By this point they were mad and just wanted to play at the park.

Vranes Reunion


This was the first reunion that the Vranes' have done with Brian's dad brothers and sister so we went out camping for a night and had so much fun. Jocelyn was always getting into dirt piles. In this picture she is eating an oreo though, not just dirt.

Jocelyn got really dirty so we had to make her a bathtub with the raft. After we finished her bath I wouldn't let anyone put her down.









I took them down to the creek to look at it and it was so cold so I thought they would just stand in it. They both ended up sitting down and getting really wet. We had to let the clothes dry out because I wasn't very prepared.




Lexie actually slept in her raft for the night. I didn't think she would sleep well because I thought she would be uncomfortable but she slept really good through the night so our camping experience with both girls turned out pretty good.




Jocelyn's clothes are still drying so she ran around like this for awhile. Lexie had a ring pop so she would follow her around saying pease, pease.

We are having a. . . . . . . . . . . .

BOY!!!!! Obviously we would have been excited either way, but I know Brian is happy to know that he will be getting a boy. He keeps asking Lexie what we are going to name him with all the Disney characters names and so I fear that she will be broken hearted when we don't. As of right now she wants to name him Mogli, Hercules, or Alladin. I am trying to tell her that Garrett sounds better. She was so excited to see her baby brother on the screen. Everything else looks really good. He was measuring a little over a week bigger so I don't know if they will change the due date or not. Since he told us that it could be twins, and I knew how hard that would be I was glad to only see one in there. Again, I would have been grateful either way. I hope all is well with everyone and again I will post pictures sometime soon.

An update

My first excuse is that I don't have internet so I haven't downloaded pictures so that is why I haven't updated anything. I will just kind of let everyone know what is going on in our lives. We have now been in Brigham City for a month, and we are really enjoying it. The doctors that Brian is working with are great and he is learning tons. It is definately different from having so many wonderful neighbors all around me to people passing me and not even saying hello. I can adjust well though so I am still just trying to get my apartment the way I want it and keep the kids entertained. We have loved being back in the west and near family. We have been able to spend some time in Soda and it has been so much fun. Things are going great though and I will try to get some pictures posted soon.

Exciting News

Well I was going to get a picture of the girls holding a sign or something, but I didn't get around to it. I have already told a bunch of people, but I thought I better do the announcement on here. We are expecting #3 in January. We are so excited. All of our kids have been due in January. I always said that I was going to stay clear after Jocelyn, but apparently not. The official due date in January 1st. We just told Lexie today and so she went and told all the neighbors that there is a baby in my tummy. Jocelyn was sitting on my lap and she told her to get off the baby. She also is pretty set that it is a brother. I told her that it might be another sister and she says she already has a sister and that it is a brother. She is really excited. I have been feeling really good. I have just been really tired with packing and everything, but other then that I consider myself very blessed. I guess we will now enjoy Christmas, anniversary, and 5 birthdays all within one month.

Palmer Wife Graduation

They started a little tradition to honor the wives that have endured Palmer also so we had our graduation last night. It was a lot of fun. I love having big get togethers to see everyone before we leave. We have had the most amazing time here. We have met some of the greatest people, and we have developed another family. I may always say that it is going to be hard for Lexie to not walk outside her back door and have friends everywhere, but it will be an adjustment for all of us. We are so excited to move back west and be close to family though. These past few years have been the greatest for me. I am so grateful for all the great friends and experiences that we have had.
The guys were going to sing a song, but there wasn't one that all of them knew. I think Jocelyn spilled her water all down the front of Bri before he stood up there. He did a nice little dance and made me laugh. When he watched it back he was embarrassed.

Nauvoo

This was our last trip to Nauvoo before we leave Iowa. It was really sad knowing that it was the last time. We have been so blessed to be able to go there on a regular basis. We barely missed the horse ride so the elders were so nice and let our kids pet the horses for a little bit.
We have never got a picture taken in front of the temple since Jocelyn was born so we really needed at least one. I am really going to miss the beautiful rooms inside the temple and hope that I will be able to come back again soon and visit.



Jocelyn was so tired; so in this picture she isn't very happy.



We have had many pizza parties with the Kimballs and Macks so we had to had a final one before we leave. Here are all our kids contained since they have food in front of them. Jocelyn was taking Kenna's pizza and she was telling her "no." Jocelyn still continued to steal until I sat by her and made her eat her own.

Our last trip to Nauvoo Dallin and Kenna rode down with us. They played really hard while they were there so on the way home they all crashed on us.

Dallin and Lexie traded seats for awhile so don't worry Dallin doesn't have a flower booster seat.
