Hand-Me-Downs

My Grandma Beverly made this little sweatshirt for me when I was a baby and kept it for me. I love it!

Good Friends!

These two are too cute! They've been buddies since about 9 months old and we're lucky that they have family in Colorado so we get to see them every once in a while:)

Eric's grandpa decided to retire from the University of Utah after 49 years. We were able to attend the dinner held in honor of him and it was fun to hear all about his career after hearing only that Eric and his friends were afraid of his Chemistry class:)

Seriously?!?! Love these two!

Can't get enough of these two and how much they love each other:)

First Friends Preschool

Weston started his first year of pre-school this year with Ms. Kim! He absolutely LOVES it. He only goes two mornings a week, but wishes he could go more. Ever since Livi was born, Weston has wanted to stay with me at all times. I was worried that he wouldn't go to pre-school, but I only had to stay for half the class one day and we've been great ever since.His class only has 5 kids in it and he really likes all of them!Class is in Ms. Kim's basement and she lives just around the corner from us so we usually get to walk to school!

Just after back to school orientation with his super reader glasses on!

Livi wanted to try something new to so we broke out the Bumbo

Just after his first day of school.

Yes, this is in the middle of the day. Eric caught us all asleep. I guess the first day of school wore us all out.

Livi's Blessing

We blessed Livi Labor Day weekend, and we were so lucky to have so much family here to be a part of it. Eric's family all decided to come over for the blessing. We were only missing Jessie and the kids since Jessie's sister's baby was being blessed the same day. Everyone stayed at out house, and it was surprisingly not too crazy and a lot of fun. I'm so glad everyone was okay with their blow-up mattress/camping pad sleeping arrangements and we were able to fit 16 people in our house so that we could all hang out rather than everyone having to go back to hotels:) Big thanks also to Krista for making Livi's beautiful dress!

Grandma hard at work finishing Livi's gorgeous dress.

Livi at the Rockies Game...She slept with her eyes half open through the entire game.

Rockies Game!

Daddy's Girl

I had to get a picture of everyone so that Livi will be able to look back and see how loved she is with so many people there for her big day!

The Nielson Crew- Everyone of Eric's siblings were able to make it so I had to get a picture!

The proud Dad

...and Mom

Jaydin was my sweet helper all weekend:)

Grandma and the girl with her beautiful dress!

I bought these booties on a study abroad 9 years ago and it was so fun to put them on my little girl.

Love that smile!

Some close-ups of the dress. I was so grateful that Krista offered to make Livi's dress. It was beautiful and grandma having made it, made it so much more special!
