Kinda Crazy...

So Thursday we found out that we are having a BOY!! YAAAAHHH!! We are so excited, but it is so crazy that I am far enough along to find out. I can't believe I am half way there! I have to admit, I was kind of relieved when I found out we were having a boy, girls can be such high maintenance!! HAHA! You know I love girls though! Anyway, just thought we would share our exciting news! Oh, and for those of you I told that we weren't going to find out, that went right out the window because I just NEEDED to know for my own sanity. It was all Todd's idea anyway!

A Big Belly Christmas...

So my Christmas break started off with a quick trip to Twin Falls to visit my sister and do some last minute shopping. I went up with my parents, Lexie, and Jaxon and we had a really fun time! The kids loved playing with Grandpa as you can see below...

We squeezed a lot into 2 days, we went swimming, shopping, played games, ate out, saw the new movie, "The princess and the Frog"(which I loved!) and just played around the hotel! My parents also set up a Christmas tree and we had a little mini Christmas with everyone! The kids loved it!

It was short but we had a lot of fun. Thanks Mom and Dad for a great time! And thank you so much for our amazing Christmas gifts, we are looking forward to using them shortly!

This year, we got to spend Christmas and New Years with Todd's family. We did a lot of fun things as well. Christmas Eve is always fun over at their house with 40 some people! Christmas Day, Todd and I made breakfast for part of the family and then went home and opened some presents, just the two of us...and our puppies. It was really a lot of fun. We played games later that night with Todd's family and laughed until we cried.

The rest of the week we did a few fun activities with the whole family including ice skating, skiing(well, not me!), sledding, basketball, and plenty more games. We spent New Years Eve their as well. Unfortunately on New Years Day, Todd spent the day throwing up along with 13 other people in Todd's family! That was definitely a bummer! But we still had a great time! Thanks Dave and Anavon for the many many meals you provided for us and the great entertainment!

Brittany, Todd and I also got up into the mountains hiking and cross country skiing. We hiked to waterfall twice, our favorite hike in the winter! It was beautiful as usual!

Here is my belly at 17 weeks...
I got Todd some cross country ski's for Christmas and he couldn't wait to try them out! So we headed to Pineview Dam and skied around up there. It was a lot of fun!

We even built a snowman in the middle of the Dam...

My belly again...

Notice how Todd is in very few pictures... he always wants to take the picture instead of being in it...you little stinker...

Anyway, it was a very fun filled break and I'm sad to be back to everyday life. However, with 2010 comes Baby Geddes! What a new adventure to look forward to!

Happy Birthday Kaya baby!!

Kaya turned 3 years old on the 29th of December! She is getting so big! She has been so fun to have around! She has so much energy and we can't seem to keep up with her! When she was a puppy and we didn't have Kiwi around, we used to have to take her to the cemetary across the street every night and let her just run to get some energy out. Luckily, Kiwi helps with that now. Over the last year she has definitely gotten more attached to us. For the longest time, she was always so busy she didn't have time to worry about us...however, she is now very attached and cries when we leave her. She loves to hike, bike, run, eat and play. She also loves the snow, she is definitely a dog meant for the snow!! She rolls in it every chance she gets!

Her howl is my absolute favorite. Evey morning when we let her in, she says hello with her sweet howl. And did I mention, she was the cutest puppy ever?!? We love her so much, Happy birthday Kaya!!

Turkey Day in the Hole!!

So we just got back from a great trip to Jackson Hole for Thanksgiving. We got there Thursday and came home Sunday... so it was a good little getaway for us! The food was great and it was good to spend time with my parents, sister, brother in law, and cute cute nephew! We even got to surprise the family on Thanksgiving ...

We had our cute puppies dress up and tell everyone our exciting news...that we are expecting a little baby in June! We are a little nervous, but way excited. To make the day even better, we found out that Todd's sister Kristi, is expecting a baby due a week after me! We are really happy for them and very excited our little one will have a cousin his same age(Notice I said "his"...that's just what I call it, since we won't be finding out the sex of the baby!)!!
Anyway, we had lot's of fun except for the fact that I didn't feel so great, as usual, so I probably wasn't so much fun to be around! But still, we had a blast and thanks mom and dad for everything! You always make our stay so enjoyable! Mom, the Christmas lights look fabulous as usual! Love you ALL!!

Happy Halloween!!

Well, Halloween was quite a hit... Our party ended up going really well and we had an awesome turnout. We ended up going as smurfs which was really fun because Todd and I both loved the smurf's when we were little!


Somehow, we got our costumes to turn out pretty good too. I even SEWED my own hat, if you can believe that! The only thing that really sucked about the costumes was the face paint. By the end of the night, it was dry and cracking! But it was fun while it lasted!

We also had great decorations at the party, we went all out! Us and two other couples made this haunted house for the background of our pictures. It turned out pretty cute if you ask me!

We are holding the limbo stick in this picture... I wanted to show our cute tails!! Didn't know smurfs had tails did ya?!!

This was us announcing the prizes at the end of the night...

There were some awesome costumes there.. I had to put a few on here!

Kiss was even there!!The pirates with their baby as a pet parrot!
A lot of the girls... I kinda blend in to the house...

The frog and the princess

Anaquin and Darth Mall
Fly swatter, can of raid, and the baby as a fly. HAHA!
If you have seen the Movie Zoolander, I don't need to say anything more... I will say this.... they won the costume contest!!!
Same thing here...if you have seen the movie, Dodgeball...here they are! He looked exactly like Ben Stiller, it was hilarious!
The spiders...their last name is Webb!!
The Adams Family...
Crayons, erasers, and medieval times!

We had a really fun time with lots and lots of fun costumes! Thanks for coming everyone!

Logan Volleyball Tournament!

So a few weeks ago, I got to do one of my all time favorite things, play volleyball! And the best part was, we got to play a little over 20 games! It was sooo fun, everyone played really well. The crazy thing was that BOTH Andie and I sprained our left ankles a week before the tournament. She did hers playing volleyball at least, while there's me, spraining it hiking!! Anyway, it was very bad luck, however, we both were able to play!! So no complaints there!

Margit, one of the players on the team, got us these free team Tshirts to wear from her friend who owns "XBALM"... It is a lipbalm. Anyway, it was a great time and we ended up placing third, even though we should've got second since we beat the 2nd place team!! They had quite a weird setup for this tournament! But good times anyway, thanks girls for a great weekend! GO XBALM!

Happy Birthday DAD!!!!

Ok, so I am a day late, but it was my Dad's birthday yesterday and I wanted to wish him a Happy Birthday! We got to spend some time with him this weekend and he even got to watch me play in my volleyball tournament! Thanks for watching dad!! It was like old times! Hope you had a great Birthday... you deserve it! Thanks again for ALL you do for us, we love you!!

Love, Todd, Lacey, Kiwi, and Kaya!

My dad loves his grandkids... as you can see...

He loves to go fishing....
And he loves me! Thanks for being a great dad!!!
