Isaac & Hailey's Wedding

Jake and I flew in late the night before and stayed at the Marriott at City Creek with a beautiful view of Temple Square. They asked us girls to wear white and for the guys to wear gray slacks that matched and ties that Isaac provided. Jake had to adjust to the "skinny" slacks that Isaac picked, but I think he looked great! I didn't have shoes (thanks Harvey) so we ran into Nordstrom next door and Jake picked the most adorable pair of heels that I am so glad I got. They are a treasure for sure. This wedding marks the first time that all 10 kids and parents have been together since the kids all grew up. What a grand occasion!

After the wedding and before the reception we made a run for the BYU bookstore to grab the kids some gear and me some chocolate covered cinnamon bears. I love being on campus with Jake. It's where we met, it's where we fell in love, Provo and BYU are special to me.

We then went to the reception and after it ended we ran by our condo and checked it out and found it in good shape. Then we headed over to our dear friend Heidi Abraham's house and loved all over her baby to be! Heidi lived in our condo complex with us and Jake was her home teacher back in the day. It was so great to see her and her husband Brent.

20 Weeks

Today we had the opportunity to go in for our 20 week ultrasound. We are excited to announce that baby #3 is a healthy BOY! We are excited but have to admit we are a bit nervous. Change is hard and after two girls this is definitely a change. It will be a fun and wonderful experience. I have already thought about little boy ACUs and PT clothes (little army clothes) and what I will decorate the "boy" room in etc. I have always heard boys are "easier" but more rambunctious so I guess we will just have to see. I was excited that during the ultrasound our little boy was crossing his legs at the ankle like both his sisters do! So funny! We will keep y'all posted on names and other developments.

Halloween 2023

We pulled off our best Halloween! Possibly ever! Jake had a vision and it came true beautifully. He even had the cutest song he sang. I loved our last Halloween in our Hurst home.

sometimes life may get you down

but then you remember how wonderful you husband is and it makes it all ok. Jake surprised me by ordering these gorgeous handmade pearl earrings from TINY STORM for me for Christmas and they were waiting for us with all our mail when we arrived back home after vacation. He got down on one knee and presented me with these earrings and it brought tears to my eyes. I am so grateful to have such a wonderful, hardworking, and loving husband who is always there to take care of me and love me when I am having a rough time. Thank you Jacob!
