Long Trip

These were from the first two weeks of April. Porter and I went on a road trip to my parents and then up to Idaho. The pictures ended up being backwards so the beginning of the trip is last and the last of the trip is first.

I bought these little tablets that grow into animals when you put them in water and Porter wasn't sure what was going on. Once we took them out he just wanted to eat them.







One of the foods I grew up on were scones. My sister Kimberly and I decided to cut out the dough into shapes. We had never had flower scones before but it was so cute.



Since Porter has become mobile I have always been careful about shutting doors, especially to the bathrooms. While at my parents house one was left open by accident and Porter found his way into and did this:





My sister Kimberly graduated from BYU Idaho. These next few pictures were of the blessed event. Porter was so tired during the commencement that I ended up dancing him to sleep in the hall. I love when he is asleep while I am holding him and I love that I put him to sleep.

Porter and I with the Rexburg Temple in the background.



Porter met my Grandma Beth for the first time. I think she liked him and I think Porter liked her too.



Here is some of the bunch acting crazy. Brooklyn loved her crazy dancing dad. It was hilarious to hear her cute laughter.



Us girls were able to be together. It is nice to be with sisters.



The gang.



Porter with Grandpa.



Porter and I with the graduate.

After a long day I took these two pictures. Porter was exhausted.



Kurt fell asleep with his head in Brooklyn's car seat.



We had a graduation party for Kimmy and Porter found a new friend while we were there.



Porter and Brooklyn in the van together. These two are so adorable.



Since all of us girls were together and since it was my Grandma Palmer's birthday recently, we decided to do a girl's brunch. It was fun to get together and eat yummy food. It is so cute to watch Porter and Brooklyn play together.









We brought my parent's wii with us to Idaho and here is Porter and Grandpa trying the ski slalom.





Porter and I went to dinner with some friends, Kevin and Jennifer. Job met them on his mission and they loved seeing Porter. He wasn't sure of them at first but quickly warmed up to Kevin.



These next pictures were taken on our way to Idaho. The day before we left Porter was teething really bad and was running a temperature over 102. We thought it would be easier to travel at night with him but he was hurting so bad and didn't feel good. He didn't want to sleep or eat, he just wanted to get out of his car seat and be held. He was like that for a couple of days, which means NO SLEEP for mommy.

These first two pictures were taken in the car when he was feeling a little better. He loved to play in the driver's seat of the van. I just had to take pictures of him in this cute beanie.





We stopped at a look out in Twin Falls. You could see the Twin Falls Temple and the gorgeous bridge with the river under it.









Job took us up to my parents' house for Easter and Conference weekend. My mom had got Porter these cute little toys but his favorite things to play with were the plastic eggs. He chased them all over the place and could even fit them into his mouth.

Missing Link



I have come across these two pieces of jewelry. This bracelet I believe was from Young Womens', but I cannot remember from what or what it means. This other piece I found when getting ready for church. I wore it, but cannot remember who has the other half. Does anyone know anything about either of these pieces?
