June

Sorry for my horrible blog updating skills. I realized that it has been almost two months since I’ve written anything; so here are a few updates.

June was a busy and fun month. We started the month out with a trip to the water park Hurricane Harbor. It was a fantastic day!

Later the whole family (minus Josh) went to see the musical Wicked. It was a birthday present for me from Tony’s parents. We had fantastic seats and the show was incredible!

The next day I left for Colorado. I got to spend a week back home and my Mom and sister threw me a baby shower. It was fantastic as two of my aunts were able to come out to celebrate with us. We played some fun games including ‘mommy girth.’ Grammy was the winner with the closest approximation of the size of my belly. The shower was lots of fun and Matty is sure to be one fashionable little guy! I was also blessed to get three hand-made blankets- two quilts (one from Grammy and one from my Great Aunt Joanie) and one crochet blanket from my mom. Thank you to everyone for making my shower wonderful, and for your love and support.

The next day we packed a truck with all of the new baby stuff, and a ton of stuff from when I was young and my mom, her husband Richard, and I all drove back down to Texas. I was the queen of wildlife sightings; I spotted a bear, elk, antelope, and a hawk. My mom and Richard stayed a few days down in Texas with us. We went to the botanic gardens and a few museums. We had a great time and I was sad to see them go.

On to July!
