what we've been doing...

Well Jeremy and I have been very busy to say the least. Trying to fit in time for family events, baby care classes, and preparing for a move across the country has kept us very busy. Not to mention working and other things. Here are some fun things we have been up to.

On March 14th we were able to see our friends (and old college roomies) Blake & Ashley get sealed in the LA Temple. It was a beautiful ceremony and we had a really nice time.



I know I look gross but Ashley looks really pretty. I loved her dress!




On March 21st we celebrated Jeremy's Dads' birthday with the fam. The boys grilled up some delicious bbq and we enjoyed a nice Saturday together.




Grandpa Murdock & Travis. Travis enjoyed helping Grandpa blow out the candles.


My brother Shane and his girlfriend Tasia came to visit us from AZ for the weekend. I thought it would be fun to take them to Hero's Bar & Grill for dinner because I like their hamburgers, not knowing it was St. Patrick's Day weekend. Yikes! Let's just say the place was full of drunk people in green, but we had a fun time anyways.




My good-at-almost-anything husband decided he wanted to do something for our baby all by himself. He took on the project of painting and finishing her baby dresser. I should have taken a before picture but I forgot. It used to be an maple wood with silver and wood nobs. Now it is all pretty and white and will match her crib perfectly. Thank you so much Jeremy!! It looks great!


Lastly... moving. This is what our apartment looked like as of 10 am this morning. There are 53 boxes plus furniture and other stuff!!! By this afternoon the movers will have taken everything and loaded it in the truck on its way to PA. I hope everyting arrives there safely and on time. Good luck to Jeremy and his dad who get the pleasure of unpacking everything :)


Our life, packed up in boxes...

Riverside Baby Shower

My Aunt Pam and mom hosted a baby shower for me in Riverside a couple weekends ago. We ate yummy food and visited outside because it was such a beautiful day! Thank you so much to everyone who came and celebrated with me. Our baby girl is definitely loved and we received so many wonderful gifts. My Aunt Pam made me this diaper cake! I thought it was so cute!

My good friend Ashley took some pics for me at the shower. Thank you so much!!!

mom, me and aunt pam :)
Prego pic of me. I promis I'm much bigger than that. This pic kinda hides it.

Me and sweet Ella. She is so cute!

I don't have any pics of people from the shower so I'm very sorry. Thank you everyone who came and supported me! I love you and can't wait for you to meet our baby girl.

Erin made this beautiful fruit arrangement and it was so yummy! Vicky also made these delicious cupcakes and decorated them with pink baby rattles. Too cute.
