Happy Independence Day!

Happy Independence Day! L and I had a pretty fun 4th of July this year, one of the main reasons is because we got to spend it together! I fly into Grand Rapids Michigan Sunday night, and am spending about a week and a half here with L.  It has been so nice to be able to spend time together.  L is still working while i'm here though, he is doing so awesome he has over 100 sales so far this year! He is doing so amazing! So some of the other wives were nice enough to invite me along to go see a parade in a cute little town close to our hotel. 
 They had awesome bag pipe players!
 They also were wearing awesome kilts!
 They had a lot of awesome cars in the parade.  Like this one that was so small and it only had one door which was in the very front of the car, it was awesome!

 They also had a lot of politicians walk through the parade too, which was different. 


 They also had the local high school crew team in the parade.  





 It was weird though because they didn't really have any floats, they just had a bunch of cars and stuff. But it was still really fun to see, and they through out a ton of candy while walking down.  It is different than the Bountiful parade.  We got there 30 min before the parade started and was still able to get a great seat.  I guess parades aren't as popular here as in Utah. After that we went back to the hotel for a little while and then the guys came home early and we headed downtown to Grand Rapids, to watch the firework show.  It was pretty cool because there is a river that runs through Grand Rapids, and they shoot the fireworks off of one bridge and then let you sit on the other bridges to watch.  We sat down at about 8:30p.m.- 9:00 p.m. to save a seat for the firework show, and let me tell you I have never seen so many people try to jam on the a bridge before it was nuts.  
 Here is handsom L waiting for the fireworks to start! 
 We dared one of the other Salesmen to see how much cottoncandy he can fit into his mouth at one time. Lol it was pretty funny to watch. 


The firework show was pretty awesome! One of the best shows that I've ever seen! It was pretty awesome.   Yesterday I had a pretty eventful day compared to the fireworks and parade lol.  I got to do laundry at coin operated machines it was super fun.  I have never had to do that before.  
Look at how awesome they are! It was so much fun let me tell you!

32 weeks

So I get larger and larger by the second I feel, but I am getting close to meeting this little guy.  I only have 2 months left! I am super excited! I finally bought a bassinet last weekend and put it together all by myself I am pretty proud lol! Here are some pictures of it.  I had to add a football blanket of course for L, and his love of football.


I also found the cutest Giraffe ever that I had to buy the moment I saw it.  I have this weird obsession with Giraffes and Zebras they are awesome and If it were up to me I would do a safari themed nursery but L loves sports so we are making a combined nursery with both. 


So I also bought some sports themed stuff, I still need some more stuff with the sports themed though.
 I'm having the hardest time picking out stuff I need though. Like a car seat, stroller, crib, changing table, and whatever else I need which I have no idea yet that I need. 

L spoiled me this past week as well he surprised me with some gorgeous flowers! It was such a thoughtful thing to do, I love the flowers they are orange my favorite color!



I suppose I should add another belly photo as well. I don't like these belly photos though cuz I always look so bad, but here is one of me at almost 32 weeks!
