Oktoberfest

Today is the first day of Oktoberfest. The last time that I was there I was nine months pregnant with Auburn. She was born the next day. Since we are not going to be in town for the majority of the festival we decided to head downtown. Simon got me a dirndl for Christmas and I had to wear it. Auburn and Conley are both wearing traditional clothes as well, although Conley is missing the lederhosen. We were all dressed up except Simon. He decided to sport a BYU shirt in support of the Cougs for tonight. I feel weird that the big game is this early, but Happy Oktoberfest and Go Cougars!




Conley is eating a cracker. It was the only way we could get him to look inthe right direction.



These are the famous cookies that people wear around their necks during Oktoberfest. They are also pretty popular at Christmas.

They were so distracted about what was going on that they were not very interested in taking pictures. This one they are at least looking in the right direction.

It's a ......

We found out last past week that we are expecting .... a baby boy! We are super excited! I had a feeling ever since we found out that I was pregnant that would be having a boy. Auburn came to the ultrasound with us and repeatedly said "baby" while we looked at the screen. We are excited for her to have a little brother. We just need to start thinking of baby boy names ....

Auburn's blessing

On Sunday, November 23rd, Simon was able to bless our precious little Auburn. Grandpa and Grandma Hill were able to be here for the blessing. I know that Papi and Grandma Little wished they could of been here as well. We had an earlier visit from the Littles when Auby was just a few weeks old. Grandma Hill made her beautiful dress and Grandma Perkins made her blanket. This weekend we had our first snowfall. The temperature was frigid and there was still snow on the ground. It still turned out to be a wonderful day. Auburn was her perfect little self. She didn't cry at all and her Daddy gave her a beautiful blessing. We are so blessed to have her in our lives!
