2009

So I wasn't good about keeping the blog up-to-date during the year so I am going to do a recap of everything we did this year.

We said goodbye to Brad at the very first of the year. He flew off to the Dominican Republic to serve on his mission.

February I was called as the young women assistant to the mia maid adviser, assistant camp director, and personal progress adviser. It has been very fun working with the young women this year.

Kevin had some really fun competitions for school in February, April, and May. In February he placed 3rd in the skills competition. In April he won first in the Spring Home and Garden show. And he placed 5th in the state skills competition in May.

In March we celebrated Hayden's 2nd birthday and Kevin's 22nd. We also celebrated our 2nd Anniversary.

In May we went boating in my parents new boat. Hayden calls it "rocket". Hayden loves the water and loves to go boating. He can't wait to be big enough to water ski like adam.



Kevin started a new job around the beginning of June. JJ's bakery seemed like a good job, but by September Kevin had to find a new job that he would actually get paid at.



We also were sealed in the Jordan River Temple on June 3rd. Hayden looked so handsome all dressed in white! Toward the end of June I had girl's camp. My mom also had camp and we were doing a booth at west fest. It was one crazy month.



July we went to Jamaica! Kevin's parents planned and paid for a family trip to Jamaica! We had an awesome time there and we very grateful we were able to go. Anytime Hayden sees pictures of that trip he calls it"my maica" it is very cute and funny. On the 24th of July we did fireworks with my parents. Hayden informed us he doesn't like "fagots" which is how he said fireworks at the time. very cute and very funny.



In August we planned a surprise party for my grandma and grandpa Harward. They celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary. We also celebrated my 22nd birthday. We went to Wendover to celebrate it.



We found out in September that we are expecting a new addition to the family.

October, Hayden made one cute dragon warrior for halloween. Though with carving the pumpkins it took him a little bit to get used to it. Kevin started at paradise bakery. We also thought it was time to move Hayden into a bigger bed. And we also wanted to get him used to it so that the baby can have the crib. So we bought him a big boy bed which he loves!



East canyon was fun at the beginning of November! Hayden loved hanging out with his cousins and playing all the games. We had thanksgiving in Huntington. Hayden really liked the horses and pigs down there, though they are a lot bigger than he thought they would be. I was very sick. And kevin went paintballing. Also the day after thanksgiving santa came to visit our family party... Hayden was happy until he had to sit on his lap.



This last month has been a crazy one. Brad celebrated his hump day on his mission. At our family party last night Hayden saw santa again, though he is no longer scared. Hayden has loved all the snow and loves to go out in his snow pants and boots to play. We have had 3 ultrasounds now for the baby. The first 2 it was being very modest as Kevin and my Dad said and wouldn't let us know what it was. But on this last one we were able to find out that it is a...BOY! Hayden is very excited to have a little brother. Though last night he had a dream about grandma sandee stealing his little brother. We are very grateful for this baby even though it has been scary so far with it. I have been very sick and we have recently found out that I have low amniotic fluid. Which can be a bad thing. I am on bed rest for the week and we have another ultrasound on the 23rd to see if that helped get my fluid up at all. We are hoping that it does, if not then there could be something wrong with the baby.



We are looking forward to Christmas and seeing Hayden open all his presents!

I hope all is well with everyone and that you all had a good year to look back on.
