Dukers Update

So everyone has been asking about the little guy so I decided to update our blog an show where Duke is at from when we brought him home weighing 4 pounds. This was his first bath at 6 weeks.

Duke Playing with the one and only TANK

The little guy at six weeks


Then he hit a slight growth spurt

He thinks He is a lap dog

He sits on the couch with his butt on the couch and his front legs on the ground. He likes to use me as seat too.

Family night at the pumpkin patch. Duke is 5 1/2 months old and weighs 85 pounds. He has been such a great addition to our lives. He is a big teddy bear that loves to snuggle whenever he can. He doesnt realize how big he is yet.

Happy 4th of July!

Me and Jon started the day off with the Murray Parade that took place right down the street from our place. It was kinda lame and our favorite part about the parade was this Wendy's frosty accompanied my Wendy:)

My boys watching the parade..

After the parade we wene to my parent's house and did a little swimming and laying out with family, neighbors and friends...I think we were about 30 strong that day!

I LOVE this family, the Jolley's, they are so cute!!

The lovers...

After a priceless dinner filled with ribs, burgers, hot dogs, salads and dessert we had the neighbor boys over for some old fashioned entertainment! They were great..

This is my buddy Parker..how adorable is that tooth?

We ended the night with some Utah styte fireworks and they were awesome! What a great holiday...until next year!

Anniversary and Jon's Birthday Weekend....

Jon's birthday was June 25th and our 1st..eehhh..Anniversary was June 28th! I can't believe how fast that went by and how much of a newleywed I still feel like:) I love my life with Jon and how he makes me laugh every single day no matter what!!

First of all, our cake was delicious as ever thanks to the best trick in the book to preserving the cake...wrap in seran wrap, put in paper bag and taped the whole way around..it was SOOO fresh tasting still! P.S. it was banana nut:)

We took the cake with us to our hotel room..Jon suprised me with a very me/shabby chic room at the Little America!

Dinner at Rodizio was priceless...

So we decided no gifts for our anniversary and little mister Jon never follows the rules!! He bought me a blow pop....just kidding, he had a custom wedding band made for me since we never got one when we were married and it won't be done for another week so the blow pop will do til then!! Thanks Baby!

A little swimming at the parentals over this fabulous weekend with Kenzie and Duke..yes Duke definatly swims:)

BIG BOY in the background....oh yeah!!

We had a fish taco fiesta at the Olson's for Jon's birthday with both our families...he got lots of gift cards, he's not hard to shop for at all:)
