Recap of the last few weeks!

The past few weeks have been really busy for us and that combined with the lack of an internet connection equals no blogging! A lot has happened since our last post...We went to Utah for conference; went to a Jazz game, I graduated from college, both of our families have been down to visit, we celebrated Easter, and I did the flowers for one of my best friend's wedding, just to name a few things.... Time has flown by! Right now we are both just working and enjoying the summer! I am LOVING being done with school forever and just being a mom and a wife!!! Brooklyn and I just play all day and go on walks...when it's not raining or snowing; it is great and so much fun!!! We only have three months left until we move to Florida and we can't wait!!! Here are pics of the past few weeks...beware there are lots of pictures, and they are in no particular order!

At the Jazz game, Brooklyn loved the bright lights and loud music!

So there you have the past few weeks of our life in a nutshell!!! Sorry for the lengthy post, but I had to do it all while our internet was going strong!

Videos for the fam

These are a few videos that we have taken recently of Brooklyn. The first is of her holding a movie she got for Easter from her Grandma and Grandpa Baxter and she was REALLY excited! The second is of her in her jumper...she was going crazy in it and bouncing sooo fast! Our computer actually reads the videos off of our new camera now, so we can finally upload videos!

Cute Pictures

It's been a long time since I've posted some pics of little Brooklyn...who isn't so little any more!! She is growing up soooo fast!!! I can't even believe she will be 7 months old this weekend!!! She is sitting up so well and rolls and wiggles all over the floor!! She loves to click her tongue and say da-da-da and ba-ba-ba all day long! She'll even throw in a wo or wow sound, she's pretty awesome! It's so much fun listening to her, I love being a mom!!! She is also quite the little poser, all I have to do is pull out the camera and she is all smiles, and will sit and pose for the camera! I love it!!! So here are just a few pics of our cute little girl!

Flowers Galore!

We finally have our internet working again, so now I can catch you all up on what has been going on! Last week the floral program put on their annual Floral Art Show, most know it as the Bridal show, and it turned out really great! This year our theme was "Gathering with a Melody in your Heart" and we based our rooms around different styles of music. My group was assigned brass/big band music. After we got our music assignments then we had to come up with an "event" to decorate for. Our group decided on a New Year's Eve Party, and it turned out Awesome!!!! Here are just a few pics from our room and one of the arrangements I designed.

And finally my bouquet

So there ya have it! It was a really great show, and took tons of time, but in the end it really paid off and looked great! If you missed it but will still be here next year be sure to go!!!

This wasn't a part of the show, but i made this "cake" for a presentation in one of my floral classes. It's not a real cake, just made up of floral materials, but I really liked how it turned out so I thought I'd share it too!

Hooray for NO MORE Snow!

We have finally made our decision of where we will be moving for Greg to attend law school!!! We are so excited that we are going to be living in FLORIDA for at least the next three years!!! At the time of our last post, we had a good idea of where we wanted to go, but we wanted to see what everyone else's opinions were, so thanks for all the votes and comments, they made us even more excited for our decision!!! Wyoming really is a good school, but we just feel that Florida is the right place for us! We have been busy the last few days looking online for apartment complexes, and it is actually a really good time to rent!!! We have come across a lot of good deals, allowing us to get into a really nice complex that we can afford and we are soooo excited!!! Besides being close to Greg's school and to the ocean, it also has 4 pools, 6 tennis courts, a fitness center, 2 sand volleyball courts...and like 11 lakes on the property! Living there is going to be like being on vacation...except dirt poor but hey, at least we will be having fun!! These are a few pictures that we could find of the complex, Paradise Island, just to give you an idea!

We Need Your Help!

We need your guy's help deciding where we should go for law school! Greg and I are from around this part of the U.S. and have never really been away from home and we need to pick between Florida Coastal School of Law in Jacksonville or University of Wyoming Law School in Laramie Wyoming. Both places have their pros and cons. Here are a few pics that we found contrasting the two places. We put a poll up on the side of our blog, so make sure to vote and give us your opinion!
