Drake Update

One of Drake's favorite things to do is go to the book store. He runs around from book to book, trying to choose which one to get. Inevitably, he ends up with a book on cars, planes, or other modes of transportation.


Tonight Johnny took him to his first movie, Toy Story 3.


He ate half the bag of popcorn himself, and the last thing he told me when I put him to bed was, "Momma, Drakie ate a lot of popcorn....it was sooooo good popcorn"

He wore the 3D glasses the whole time

He and Johnny had a great time together and I love that they had a little daddy-son date!

House Update

If all goes as planned, we'll be moving in Thursday!


Which means me and my big belly will be floating in this the rest of the summer...
Yeeeesssssss


Two Things

1. Drakie has been getting to know his auntie Didi and snuggles with her


2. I forgot that this was your view every time you step out of the house in Orem.
I never tire of it.

Family Reunion in Rexburg

Last weekend we were in Rexburg, ID to celebrate Johnny's step-grandparents 50th Anniversary and a Williams Family Reunion. Johnny's family came down from Montana and flew out from Texas and it was so good to spend a few days with the whole group.

Here are some photos highlighting the trip:

Johnny and his brother-in-law, Scott, and Dad are in this pic in front of the Rexburg Temple.

Here's Adrienne and the happiest guy ever, Hayden

Cousins Ryver, Hanna, and Drake doing a bit of horse riding

Trampoline jumping - you'd think they were 5 ft off the tramp instead of 5 inches

The whole Williams group

And each day was beautiful, with amazing skies!

The End

Drake got into some of 'Didi's' nail polish and this is what he did:


I'm not sure what I was more proud of 1) that of all the things he could've painted, he painted his toenails, or 2)that he didn't spill a drop anywhere and came out walking on his heels afterward to show them off.


Here is a glimpse at how Bubba has spent the last two weeks here at the Allbee's:
He does this non stop, all day, and we have yet to have an accident...thank heavens.

We moved, across the country, two weeks ago.
My parents flew our kids to Utah and Johnny and I drove a moving truck for 5 days.

4:30am - headed to the airport

Summary of the drive:

1. Left PA Thursday night at 8:00pm, a little behind schedule
2. 8:10pm - "I need to go the bathroom"
3. Stopped behind a burning semi for an hour
4. "You aren't singing that song right"
5. My father owns a grocery store, and there's something in it that starts with....
6. "You still aren't singing that right"
7. "I need to go to the bathroom"
8. Thank heavens for iPads.
9. J - "I'm getting old."
P - "I know. At least you get a little better looking as you get older."
J- "I know, I get better looking every day, duh"
(repeat that once a day)
10. "Bathroom stop, please"
11. "Quit chewing so much ice"
12. Bohemian Rhapsody - song in my head for five days
13. Same song Johnny would never sing right, thus keeping it in my head
14. Lightening storms NON STOP

15. Fast food
16. Holiday Inn
17. Wolverine - the same movie on in the hotel every night
18. Iowa Machine Shed - yum
19. Name that song game
20. "Bathroom please"
21. "I ate your Pringles while you were sleeping"
22. Carthage Jail
23. Nauvoo
24. "If you've been to Wyoming, you've been to nowhere"
25. Back to our baby boys!

So grateful everything went so smooth!



Now we are currently under contract for a home in Orem, lets hope that goes smooth as well so we can move in 4 weeks!
