Updates and such

So…I haven’t blogged for a while….but while we were in AZ we did some really fun stuff….our first day there we went to lake w/ Ashley and Sean Tillman and her parents.  They are always so generous and kind to take us out on their boat! We had so much fun!  It was Jason’s first time REALLY wakeboarding….and he was AMAZING!  Stinking natural talent – got up his first time…and rocked it the rest of the day!

Crossing the wake

IMG_5838Out in the open water! IMG_5842Crossing back over! IMG_5843Trying a bit of a jump Smile IMG_5845So freakin proud of him! IMG_5849The boys also did a bit of cliff jumping (pretty sad cliffs – but it’s still fun to climb and jump)  IMG_5853Us and the Tillmans.  IMG_5869Me and Ash and our baby bumps…so the story here is Ashley had a dream back in the winter that in the summer we would both be pregnant out on the lake this summer…so we had to make this trip come true!  Thanks Ash!  It was so great :)IMG_5871My baby bump…a bit more attractive then me next to tiny little Ashley!  lol!  So this is at 20 weeks :) 

Another great thing we did was get together with our “single” – now “married” group of friends.  We ate at the Gecko Grill – which is a place in Gilbert that Jason used to work at….and is basically obsessed with! It was so fun to get together with everyone now married – such a successful YSA ward!  We missed Tyler and Marrie and Brielle (they took off before we could snap a shot with them).  Also Josh (Jason’s brother) and his wife Syl couldn’t make it that night.  IMG_5872Derek, Lauralie and Max, Steve and Melinda, Jase and Me, Ashley and Sean.  IMG_5873The next night we got together with Jason’s friend from HS – Erik and his girlfriend Beya and Jase’s BF Adam and wife Monet.

Then on Thurs I headed out to Phx to hang with Sheryl and her fam.  IMG_5874This little peanut is so dang cute.  I think she has my nose – at least the one I had when I was a baby.  I can’t believe how much she has changed since she was a baby. IMG_5876She has such a fun personality.  IMG_5878Lizzy is such a cutie too!  She has so much attitude.  It crack me up.  She also is so sweet – the other day she drew a picture for me…it made my day to know that she was thinking of me after we came home!  Sad I didn’t get a picture of the Blakester boy.

One last great thing (besides the shower) Is that we went to Last Chance.  It is the best store ever!!  IMG_5881I got this diaper bag (Petunia Picklebottom) for $30 – yep that is right $30!  IMG_5882UGG boots for like $35 IMG_5883UGG slippers for $20

IMG_5884IMG_5885And other fun things….I also got some Tom’s shoes that are so cute!  IMG_5886I wasn’t totally selfish.  I did get some things for the baby too!  IMG_5894And last of all…here is a pregnancy pic @ 23 wks.  I hate taking these, but everyone says that I will regret it if I don’t.  I feel so huge already :(  But whatever!

I wanted a picture of the pile of Tom's ;) Please come back soon!! We love having you visit and it seems we never feel like we get enough Shandra and Jason time!

You look fantastic! I love cute belly bumps :) You would regret it. I wish I had taken pictures with Blake or Elizabeth so I ended up doing it with Savannah instead.

Congrats Shammy! And it's true...take lots of pics! It will go faster than you think and then you'll totally forget what it's like to be pregnant:) Looks like life is good!
