City Creek and Katelyn's Graduation

I feel like Salt Lake City is the closest I will get to being in a big city like New York without actually being IN New York. I love the feel of the hustle and bustle and shopping around different stores. Even though I would never buy an actual Coach purse for $500, it is still fun to go! 

When City Creek Center opened up I was dying to see what all the fuss was about. We went when I was 9 months pregnant and anxious to get out of the house (even though it killed my back to walk around). It started to rain while we were there but luckily the roof closes for inclement weather! So cool.

 I love this place. I might just have to take Autumn there this week. 

Another belly shot! 

And then, one of my best buddies, Katelyn, graduated from LDSBC. She did their Interior Design program. Katelyn went to Cosmetology school before she pursued her degree at LDSBC. She is a very talented person and such a great friend. I was so glad we were able to go and support her on her special day. 

I stole the above picture from Katelyn's blog. Thanks girl :) 

At this point I was already 5 days overdue! 

Had to get a BA shot.

All 7 of us have been continuing on the tradition of dinner club this past semester. It's amazing how much we all have in common and how well we all get along after all these years.
 I'm so lucky to have such great friends!

After the graduation we went to celebrate at Chili's!!! Yummy food. Sadly, all these guys are moved away for the summer. I sure do miss them but I am excited when they come back to visit in a couple weeks!

Congratulations Katelyn!!

Michelle's 50th Birthday

On April Fool's, Spencer's mom turned 50! Her brother made her this sign. So funny!

She was driving home from Logan and we all decided to surprise her with cake and flowers. 

Spice cake that I made. SO good!

I totally love this balloon, because it totally describes Michelle!

Richard and little Hayden guy

Here she is coming in for the surprise!

Typical Michelle in her sweats when she doesn't have to be dressed up for work or church (which is mostly everyday). She is such a great teacher! She received the Jordan School District Educator of the Year Award. They only pick 10 teachers out of 10,000 people! She is truly amazing!

Hayden is crawling now! 

That's All Folks!

Black and White Days

 A long standing tradition in the Bagley Family is attending Black and White Days in Richmond, Utah. Here is a website explaining a little bit more about it. http://www.richmond-utah.com/bwdays.html

Even before Autumn was born, Michelle bought her and Hayden a cow outfit. I couldn't wait for her to wear it. When I was thinking about her actually being born and looking forward to having her, I would always get excited to think "wow...when Black and White Days is here, I will finally not be pregnant and will have my baby!" Well it has now come and gone and my baby is almost 7 weeks old! It is crazy how time goes SO fast.

We arrived to Logan on Friday evening after Spencer took a long nap. Because he works construction he is always so exhausted! We met up with the family and stayed the night at the Harper home (they are on a mission and they let us stay at their home sometimes)! We ate pizza and watched the new muppet movie. The next morning Spencer and his dad headed over early to the Bagley home in Richmond to help put up new doors for his grandpa--they have been slowly re-modeling their house. I fed Autumn a couple times and then we headed up! We were greeted by several cousins and aunts and uncles. I was able to introduce Autumn to so many people! I felt so excited to show her off to family. They all loved her of course.

Autumn and Hayden 

 

This is one of my favorite pictures! Such a perfect face. 

Meeting Great Grandma Bagley for the very first time!

We ate lunch and then headed to the fair. Lots of little vendors and fun toys for kids to play on. I took Autumn in a little carrier we had bought the day before at Target and it worked great! Michelle looks forward to Black and White Days more than she does Christmas, so she was the ringleader at the fair. We do what she says and she wanted us to get on the train ride! It was so hilarious. I thought Autumn's head was going to fall off because it was so bumpy!

Cousins 

Christie was hilarious!

Cowtail

Meeting Aunt Janice!

After the fair we got ready for the parade and took a family picture. Look at little Hayden! 

Gotta love the cow vests...courtesy of Michelle of course!

Spencer and Autumn hanging out at the parade. Autumn soiled her cow outfit so we had to change her.

Oh well.

I forgot sunglasses so I borrowed Autumns. Thanks little girl! And Grandpa Bagley was the mayor so he got to ride in the parade. We all love the parade because they give candy out. A TON OF CANDY!

Spencer worked practically all day on the doors so he got a little dirty. Usually we would go to the horse pulls that evening but we decided to head home instead since it was a late night already. I definitely will look forward to this again next year! We will have to get Autumn a new cow outfit! 

Autumn's 1st Swim and Smile

When my brother Dustin is in town for work we like to go to his hotel and swim! This is the first time I had been in a hot tub for a really long time. It felt so good! 

Up in the hotel room we got a couple great pictures of this cute girl smiling. She is now smiling all the time!

Sorry these are all sideways! I tried to switch them but they won't switch. HMMM...
