Blessing Day!

I have always been dreaming of the day that my little boy would be blessed! On Sunday May 25 Brandon blessed Coleton in his old home ward in Cedar City, Utah. We were lucky enough to have Don and Deniece (my parents), Caralee (my little sister), Joleen and Tom (Brandons parents), Dee and Lorna Wiser (Brandons grandparents), Candice and Andrew (Brandons sister and brother-in-law), and Grace and Grant (Brandons neice and nephew) come for the special event. Coleton was dressed in a little white overalls and vest that my mom bought and it was matched with a whiteshirt that Brandon wore when he was a baby and a bow tie that Brandons mom made for him. He looks so handsome!

We were also suprised how well Coleton did on the trip to Utah! We drove 4 hours to Kaysville and he slept the whole way and then when straight to the airport were as soon as we got on the little, very loud plane he fell right asleep until we walked into the airport when he woke up to greet his grandparents. He was so good the whole trip, he was around more people then he is definately use to so he was kind of on over load all weekend! We were all amazed what a little trooper he was though!

Big News!

We finally heard back from the CES program in Cedar City! Brandon was offered a part-time job as a seminary teacher at cannon view high school! We are not sure the exact time he will be teaching but it will either be at 7:15am or 1:05pm so we are hoping to hear back soon. We found out that in june and August he will have training and meetings and since he will still be in school in June, he will not be able to get out of it in August which means that he wont be able to go to the family reunions that we already schedule :( so i will probably have to go alone! School will start the middle of August so we are moving to Cedar City. Brandons parents are remodeling a house about 10 minutes from their house and they are allowing us to stay their for a year so we are so excited to be in something bigger and brandon is excited to be able to do yard work!! I am just excited to be in a real town, real ward, with a bigger place to live then our two bedroom apt!! This means that when we graduate in July (Brandon with Bachelors and me with my associates) off we go to Utah! We got a phone call the other day from Brandons sister, Candice, and she told us that she is pregnant!! We thought that it was ironic that everyone on Brandons side of the family and everyone on my side of the family were pregnant at the same time (only about two weeks but still) we thought that was pretty funny. We head down to Cedar City in two weeks to bless Coleton. I am a little nervous because we will be flying from Salt Lake City to Cedar City and who knows how the flight will be with him? I hope it goes well!
