Raiyah's First Year

Matt and Gina Wedding!!!

Matt and Gina were married in the Salt Lake Temple on the 18th of December. It was a beautiful day. I can't believe my "little" brother (hee hee) is married. We are excited Gina is around. Matt actually stays to hang out and play games with the family. The whole day was really nice. Their reception was at Eaglewood, which was perfect. Raiyah loved all the attention she had with her pretty dress, and corsage.

REGISTERED NURSE

After three majors: music, business, and nursing; three colleges: Weber State, Utah State, and SLCC; a new house, marriage, and a baby I graduated in May 2007 as a Registered Nurse. I can't believe on my days off I have time to actually write on a blog instead of studying! I now work at Intermountain Medical Center in Murray. I love Thoracic Medicine and think I'll stay there for a while.
The nursing pinning ceremony was at the SLC Masonic Temple. My parents, Ryan, and his Mom, and Max Laforet all came to support.

Friends at the Park

I always love getting with all of my childhood friends. It is pretty crazy how fast life is going. I pray Raiyah will have as good of friends as I did growing. They have always been there for me.

SIX MONTHS!!!

We cannot believe Raiyah is already six months old! We are having so much fun watching her every move. She has begun bubbling her spit when she is upset, yelling very loud when she wants attention, and giving you the prettiest little grin when she is happy. Her favorite things right now are playing with Grandma Hare in the yard, biting Grandpa Hares fingers, pulling Grandpa Flanders hair, and listening to Grandma Flanders sing. She truly is a joy.

Ryan's Hobbies

Ryan really enjoyed going to Moab in March with his CJ5 which he re-did this past winter.

Ryan is the one with the funny hat on. He claims it protects his head, I'm not so sure. He is still playing rugby three days a week for Haggis Park City, and loving every minute of it. He is like a little boy with excitment every time a game comes around. http://haggisrugby.com

The Boys in Raiyah's life

Grace and her cute cousin(2nd), Jack Martin(striped shirt)were born two days apart. We were next door neighbors in the hospital.It is so much fun watching them together, they have watched movies, gone on walks, swimming, and seem to enjoy each other except for the times when Raiyah pulls Jacks hair. (I think she might just want some of it).
Raiyah is also lucky enough to have her cute cousin Easton Babinsky(overalls) close by. They just kind of stare at each other. I'm sure we will have to keep an eye on them as they get older.
And of course we have Tyler. Raiyah is very lucky to have her older boy cousins Tanner and Tlyer to always watch out for her.
