Gerber Daisies!

I love gerber daisies. I had them at my wedding, and I want them at my funeral. Jeff went to Vegas about 2 weeks ago with my bro-in-law, Trent, to see the Nascar race. That was the weekend the boys had HFMD (Owen did get it...but it wasn't too bad. He did have one sore in his mouth that did bother him though). Since I was having such a bad weekend, Jeff had these flowers delivered to me while he was gone. I love him! It's been awhile since I've gotten flowers, which is fine because they're so expensive and they just die. I actually still have these flowers on my island. They don't look as good, but they're still alive.


What a beautiful yellow and red...I love the combo. I've never seen one like this.



Here's Owen in his favorite hiding place. When I can't find him, this is where he usually is.

A cute video...


I love how he knows what bye-bye is. He's got such a cute little wave.

I've been slacking on the blogging lately. I've been very busy with one of my callings...Region Sports Director. We have been getting ready for our basketball tournament. It just started tonight, so I just have 3 more weeks of it. I do enjoy my calling, but it's very time consuming during tournament time. Poor Jeff will be home with the boys a lot.

That was super thoughtful of him! And no fun with the HFMD. I used to teach preschool and I actaully got that and it hurt so bad! Especially the sores in the mouth! Everything burned them. So sad! Good luck with the Basketball tournament! I will be thinking of you guys and I will be cheering for you! I miss those good times!

That is so sweet! And I love that yellow/red flower. I've never seen that either...very pretty. Owen is so cute! It's crazy how fast this past year went. I can't believe he is almost 1! Which means Avrie is right behind him. Sniff.

That was thoughtful of Jeff! I too love the yellow and red daisy. My wedding colors were yellow and red and those would have been perfect.

Owen is such a cutie. I bet he and Lucy would be great friends, they would probably get into everything! So cute.

Region sports are awesome. It is such a great thing that the dads can stay home once in awhile. It is good for them and the kids. Thanks for doing an awesome job.

There is something about flowers! I LOVE getting flowers too! It makes you feel so special & beautiful inside. What a sweet husband.

Hey, you should dry those gerbers so that you can keep them FOREVER! I really like that red/yellow one too. That video was super cute. Jonas used to wave all the time, but he doesn't do it anymore. Is that normal?!?

Carrie,

What a lucky woman! You're more than welcome to "snoop" around our blog! That's what it's there for, although I don't know that I qualify as having a blog anymore since it's been so long since I updated it! I'm trying to get back on the horse.

Whenever I see Gerber daisies I think of your reception (which was awesome by the way). Sorry it has taken me so long to comment, I just forget to do it sometimes. I can't wait to see you guys on Friday!!!
