We have had a busy week! Chad has changed his career path from med school to dental school, and so far it looks like a great change for our family, We are so proud of him! We both had to speak in church yesterday, and Chad is taking all his finals this week, and preparing to leave for Disneyland on Saturday!!! My good friend Malia got married on Friday, it was such an exciting day, and we are so happy for her.
My little sister Abby had her birthday on Saturday and we went to the tulip festival at Thanksgiving Point, Kate enjoyed all of the flowers and the strong winds! She loved all of the pictures and attention!




On Sunday it was Chads younger brother Landans birthday, So we got to have another party! Kate has turned into a little party animal! She got a chance to show off all of her funny faces!




She even got a chance to give Landan a little present... Goobers in his hair!Thanks for reading and we hope you have a great day!!! We'll give you a report when we are back from Disneyland!!!

Chads big decision...

So Chad has recently made quite the change to his career path. He is looking into dental school instead of medical school. So far it sounds like a great path for our family. Any thoughts, or suggestions? We love the fact that he could attend UNLV which is closer to home, and he would not have the long residency but instead be able to specialize! All around it sounds like a great way to go, but we would love suggetions! Let us know what you think!

Girls Night Out



The girls in my family have a tradition of spending dads money when he is gone to the priesthood meeting for general conference. Tonight we decided to go to Olive Garden for dinner and once we got there we were informed that the wait was about an hour, so in the meantime we made our way around to nearby stores. Grandma bought Kate the cutest flip-flops! and my crazy sister Abby bought this hot pink spandex shirt from the childrens store and wore it to dinner to see everyones reactions. I also spent the day convincing my two youngest sisters Camille and Anna that I am Hannah Montana (I think they believe me), but Anna told me "If you are Hannah Montana then you are dumb!" I would say it was a day well spent. Kate developed a love for kittys today. We visited my grandma and she has one indoor cat and two outdoor cats and Kate was so excited to see them, she was pulling their tails. She was also introduced to Coke today by Grandpa, she was not to happy when she realized no one would let her drink it. I am quite proud of myself, I went to the auto parts store by myself and found the right wiper blades and washer fluid for my car with no help! (I admit that my dad did help me put them on the car though). All in all it was a very productive day!

Malia's Bridal Shower

So Kate and I attended a bridal shower for my good friend Malia tonight. It was so fun to get together with all of my friends and visit. One of my friends' little boy came over to Kate and was kissing her forehead, it was so cute! But then he decided that she tasted pretty good and he bit her forehead I was trying not to laugh because she was not too happy but I loved watching her interact with someone her age. She has started rolling all over the floor and tonight she was watching him crawl around and she has now started trying to crawl, aaahh! I am so glad that I have such great friends (and of course family), I was thinking today how lucky I am to have the people in my life that I do. So thanks for being my friend!!!

easter and more!









Well life has been eventful! I am now officially registered for nursing school and will begin june 23rd, yay! Kate is getting bigger and more fun every day, and Chad is still very busy with work and school. Kate celebrated her first easter and she was very excited to chew on all of the colorful eggs and baskets. The easter bunny came and we followed his tracks to the easter baskets. Kate got Enchanted, and a cute little dress and stuffed bunny, and her favorite was a book that makes crinkle noises! She had her first easter egg hunt at grandma Gollahers house and dad helped her find lots of eggs! She has discovered new foods recently, her favorites include bananas, peaches and pears, but her favorite part of it all is making a big mess! Kate got her first toothbrush a few days ago and loves chewing on it, however she was not too happy about the brushing part. She has learned to roll all over the floor and it is so funny to see the places she ends up, she loves to chew on the sides of the table and couch, what a crazy baby! Kate will be taking her first trip to disneyland the end of april and we are so excited! Well thats all for now, Have a great day!
