Busy, Busy, Busy

This past week I have been extremely busy but having a good time with family and friends. These pics will recap my life this past week...


Pictured above: For Bobbi's birthday we went and got pedicures! It was a much needed one. We also went to dinner that night with our hubby's and a some other couples.




Pictured Above: Grandpa's birthday party on Sunday, and Fireworks for Cedar Hills city on Monday night. Also this week Spencer sent a bunch of pics home from Wales!




Pictured above: Spending time with my two favorite buddys Kam and Jax! Emily's dog had 7 puppies about 4 weeks ago, they are so dang cute! Halie named them Ross, Chandler, Joey, Rachel, and Pheobe, even though there are 5 boys and 2 girls. I guess some of them have the same name:)





On the 24th of July Us girls went golfing with the men at the Cedar Hills golf course. We like to go along for the ride. I liked to tan my legs while waiting. Monday night Zac took me to the range, i was happy i actually made contact with the ball!!

Weekend Extravaganza's

This past weekend we did the usual Olson family camp out/fishing, and dinner up Payson Canyon, but we didn't spend the night. It was so much fun, we spent the day fishing at Payson Lake, then went up to the usual Black Hawk camp site we reserve every year and played card games, sat by the fire roasting marshmallows and chatted for a while before going home to take showers because that is how we camp. The next day we went to American Fork's Steel Days with our friends Jana, Clint and little Dallas. We watched the fireworks, we always have fun with them. And props to the 8 month old baby who sat there perfect the whole time! We love Dallas. Needless to say, it was a great weekend! Please enjoy the slideshow.

4th of July and St George

We have been out of town so i have not been able to post in the last week. So, here it is...On the 4th of July I went to the Provo Freedom Festival parade with my family while Zac slept in (I don't blame him). It was fun to be with all my extended family. That evening we did fire works with all the little grandbabies in front of my parents house. Then we sat on the roof and watched the whole valley's fireworks. We could see from Thanksgiving point clear to Provo. The next morning we headed for St George to be with Zac's family for the weekend. We had a blast. We went 4 wheeling at Sand Hollow, went to a cabin in Pine Valley, skim boarded at the Virgin River, went swimming and ate a lot! Well, thats my week in a nut shell! Enjoy some pictures!

Pictured below...Zac and I watching fire works in front of the Olson home, the flag was a cool effect.

Dr. Update

Sorry to any of the men who read my blog, but i wanted to update the ladies on what my Dr. Said. I had my follow up appointment yesterday with my OB. He was so awesome. First he had a talk with me saying that what happened to me only happens to 1% of women and it is very uncommon to lose a baby in the 2nd trimester. He doesn't want me to be scared of being pregnant again. He also said that with my next pregnancy i will be holding my breath until after my 2o week appointment, but he will get that little one in my arms. We also talked about when i can get pregnant again. He says he wants us to wait 1 full cycle to regulate my body. Try to get pregnant the month after that without fertility and if i am not pregnant he will put me back on Clomid, or in other words as my husband calls them (i apologize) my "bitch pills." I told him my goal was to be pregnant again by Christmas. He seemed VERY confident about that. As for me, i can get back into a "normal" routine. It has been 3 weeks today that Baby Layton was born and we are doing great. We have been busy with my little brother leaving on his mission, and then we also moved. I want to say thanks again for everyone and their friendship, love and support through this. I hope I can be there for any of you as much as you have been there for us.
