Grow already...


I have been feeling like my hair sucks and isn't growing contemplating extensions. I always heard how pregnant womens hair grows so fast blah blah blah. I didn't feel like my hair has grown a centimeter until I got this pic from Chris's mom in my inbox and to my surprise my hair has grown a centimeter or maybe two :) thank goodness but I still want extensions or maybe I should purchase a few hair accessories before making the jump because I am so BORED WITH MY HAIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

More Easter


Here we are with Chris's family for Easter Sunday dinner. Kristi always makes the best food they are a blast and the family keeps growing which is awesome.

Eggs Rain and Ham

Ever since I can remember my family goes to easter eggs hunts across the town. They are also so much fun it was a blast to see my nieces and nephews out there gathering the eggs.
This year we went to Thanksgiving Point for the easter egg hunt. It was cold, rainy, and a blast.
They had all these fun activities besides the easter egg hunts. I just love easter!! Next easter we will have a little one to celebrate with YIPEE!!!
Of course just like most people we had a big feast on Sunday with a lot of Ham and more easter egg hunts.

And it continues....

Believing in the Atonement

MaxwellNA_90-99.jpg

"The most important thing we can do in preparing individuals to receive the full blessings of the Atonement is to understand it and to believe in it ourselves. By understanding and believing in the Atonement personally, you and I can teach and testify of the Atonement with greater gratitude, greater love, and greater power."

Neal A. Maxwell


"We can have eternal life if we want it, but only if there is nothing else we want more."

Bruce C. Hafen

Today is the day Christ willingly carried his cross for you, had his hands and feet nailed to the cross for you, and died on the cross for you. Today re-evaluate your life, see if there is anything between you Christ and eternal life.

And so it began...

Christ's Unwavering Love and Support

HollandJR_04_rgb.jpg

"In the moonlit silence of that Near Eastern night, every acute pain, every heartfelt grief, every crushing wrong and human hurt experienced by every man, woman, and child in the human family was to be heaped upon his weary shoulders. But in such a moment, when someone might have said it to him, he rather says to us, 'Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.' (John 14:27.)"

Jeffrey R. Holland

Today is the day the Thursday before Easter Christ ate the last supper with his disiples, struggled in Gethsemane and was betrayed by some of his closest friends and followers. May we remember Him always and ask ourselves what and who this was done for. Do something to show your gratitude today!!!

Crackling fire mmmmmm gotta love it!


Because smells that linger make me wanna vomit like what we cooked for breakfast, dinner or whenever Chris opens the refrigerator. So Chris and I went out last night to get some candles we came across WoodWick Candles oh they are awesome. The wick is this big flat piece of wood and as the candle burns it crackles and pops like a burning fire AHHHHHH it's so relaxing. So those of you who don't have a fire place go out and get one of these it does the trick.

Miles table for 3

Wow we have so much to share. Chris won the Mountain West Conference 3 years in a row! We went to Vegas to compete in the tournament and then headed to Philadelphia to play in the NCAA which was bitter sweet.

But the biggest news of all is that WE ARE HAVING A BABY!! I am coming up on week 12 the little one is due October 19 for all you libras out there YEAH!! Best month ever (my birthday is Oct 10) This baby sure is a shocker but we are thrilled once we got over the whip blash the news gave us. I have been feeling great other than....

I have been feeling like I just got off the tire swing doing the towlet spin but haven't thrown up...yet (knock on wood)
I have been hungry but grossed out by even the thought or smell of water and ice (yes they do have a smell)
I have been so tired at around three if I don't lay down I will fall asleep no matter where I am or what I am doing
I am convinced there are little people living in my head playing dodge ball or racquetball I get the worst headaches ALL THE TIME!
It's hard for me to open the fridge or walk through an area with food (BARF-A-RONI)

Other than that life is good we are moving soon and have a bunch of trips planned. Since we weren't exactly planning on an addition until next year we are trying to do as much as we can while it's the two of us. I will share our list of things to do next time.

Much Love!!


Ash Chris and mini miles-OUT
