An addition to the Garrett Family!

For those of you who haven't heard yet, or those who just want a little update, I am officially pregnant and Matt and I are expecting our first little one on August 15th, 2008! (Hopefully a little sooner since it's in the middle of the HOT summer!) We are so excited to embark on this new adventure of parenthood and start our family.

I had my first doctors appointment today and got to see the ultrasound of the little being that is starting to form inside of me, it was so neat! I could see the heart beating and everything. The doctor said it was still a little too early to actually hear it, but next visit we will. My appointment wasn't supposed to be till next week, but we're going to Disney World on Friday, so it had to get bumped up! Seeing the pictures today made it all seem a little more real, because for awhile there I kept wondering, "what if I'm not really pregnant and I just randomly missed two months in a row and the test showed up positive?" Anyways, now I know it's real, and I'm SO excited! I can't wait to find out what it's going to be :)

Lunch with the Girls!

Today I got to meet up with two of my best girlfriends/ex-roomates for lunch at Sweet Tomatoes and pedicures! It was so much fun to catch up after the business of the holidays and just hear what's going on in everyone's lives. It is such a blessing to have good friends, and to be able to spend days like these together every once in awhile. Ashley, we missed you today and wish you could have been here with us!

Christmas in Washington!

This year we spent Christmas up in Washington with my family! It was a long drive up, but we had so much fun once we got there. We again, ate lots of food, spent lots of time with the family just hanging out, and instead of guitar hero, we played lots of Rock Band! That was a blast and "The Kennedy's" were a big hit! (our band name)


Matt and I Christmas morning...he's getting the guitar ready for rock band!

Grandma and Grandpa with Kyson and his cool leapster! The kids are big fans of those.

Aizlyn got baby bottles for her babies for Christmas and she loves them! She kept trying to feed them to Kennedy, it was so cute.

Jacob is opening Kennedy's cabbage patch doll that walks with her!

Kyson and Landon got a new wagon from Grandma and Grandpa!

Matt and I got Paige and Ty little BYU beanies...Paige didn't like it so much, but Ty loved his!

Go BYU!

Decorating Christmas cookies!

Lindy, Aizlyn, and Lexi came over to help me decorate all my Christmas cookies this year! It was nice to have the help cuz there were a lot of them, but the girls kept wanting to eat them! Aizlyn loved all the green ones, that's her new favorite color.

Aizlyn wouldn't even touch the ones that weren't green!

Thanksgiving...little late!

This post is a little late, but I thought I'd put up pictures of our Thanksgiving trip this year! We went down to Beaver with Matt's family and stayed in these cute little condo's up at what used to be a ski resort. We played lots of guitar hero, fusion frenzy, and ate way too much food, of course, but it was so fun to spend time with the family!

Here's Matt throwing rocks at the frozen lake

We went for a little walk around the old ski lifts that aren't running anymore

It was windy and FREEZING up there!

Here's our cute nieces, Kaela, Janey, and Avie playing in the snow!

Here they are again with Lucy
