Its true. Matt and I are having a girl. We are both excited. The baby is healthy and looking as good as a baby can look at 5 months.

Fatty

This is me at 17 1/2 weeks. There really is something there. I usually do not have a belly that hangs out that far. On April 7th i will be finding out if it is a boy or girl. Make sure you vote.

The Trip

Life is great in Utah. It is definitely hard going to school every day with this extra weight, but i love the challenge. I am getting bigger and bigger every day and eating like a pig. Two weeks ago Matt and I went down to St. George and Las Vegas. Cammi, my cuz, got married. The wedding was great and we got to see a lot of family. Mom and Lori even came up from New Mexico. Every thing went well. Aunt Daina did an amazing job decorating. I did not get any pictures of the reception but I got a couple at the Temple. Cammi and Adam looked great.

Matt and I also drove down to Las Vegas. We were going to go take a tour of the power plant at Hoover Dam, but we did not get that far. We spent most of the time working the slot machines. It took all my money. Well, actually there is no way you can get me to spend a dime on gambaling. I learned my lesson when I was little. Jerusha might remember this one. I spent $5 on one of the stuffed animal machines (the grabber ones) and never got a stuffed animal. That was all my money. Luckily the guy next to me was amazing at it and felt sorry for me, so he gave me the stuffed animal he knew his kids wouldn't care for. Besides getting a good work out we saw the Gardens and the Fountains at the Balagio. It was my first time seeing them both. they were amazing. I have some pictures and videos I took while we were there. Enjoy!

Matt enjoyed water arches. he explained the engineering behind it. Will some day you and Matt will have to talk engineering.

Well it has been a while since I have posted to my blog so I guess I should update anyone who is still visiting. It has been a hard 2 months. Leaving at 7:00 am every morning and getting home at 7:00 pm every night was tiring. I was coaching basketball for Provo High School. I loved it and learned a lot, but i am glad it is over. My team was so much fun to coach. The girl's had great attitudes. They were always positive even after a loss. We did lose every game but the last one. I am so glad that we won the last game. The girls deserved it. They even played well. It was good to see how much they improved through out the season. Now that basketball is over it has been nice to beable to come home earlier to make dinner for Matt. He has been so great to me. I am finally feeling better. I am not sure why they called it morning sickness because I had it all day. Well it is 5 more weeks before we get to find out what we are having. Matt and I are both excited.

Here is the Freshman Provo High Basketball Team

Christmas

This Christmas season has been great. Two weeks ago we went to Temple Square to look at the lights. It was amazing. They do such a great job. Here are some pictures we took. It is a lot better in person.

This is a picture of our first Christmas tree. I think it turned out great.

We hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas!!!

BYU vs. New Mexico

It was a cold game. We had to bring the hats from Peru.

Luckily we won that game even though it was a slow start and New Mexico was controling the tone of the game. Goooooooo cougars!!!

Gwen, Tom, and Steve (Matt's sister-in-law, brother, and uncle)

The Wedding Day

Waiting for the bride and groom to come out:

It has always been a challenge to make sure Dad's hair is in the right place or just looks decent. The Fun Pictures. Thanks for coming roommies!!!





The Reception

How many people can we fit in the Grigg home. I think this is the most it has ever had. At least everyone got to bond.

That's right. I am still competetive on my wedding day.

Did anyone get pictures of our real exit with the marshmallow guns?

The Trip to Moab

The trip to Moab was a lot of fun, but too short. Some day I am going to have to go specifically for the sites and hike around. Matt and I only hiked for about 1 hour after my race.

In the car on the ride down. Matt and Myself and Becca and Kent. Kent got 15th over all in the race and 6th in his catagory. He is an all-star runner.

I think I am going to bring the high socks back into style. What do you think?

Becca, Brian, and Myself after the race
My time was 1:56. Brian Mitchell beat me by about 30 to 40 seconds. the best part of the race was the food at the end.

This is part of the group from my ward that ran in the race.

I'm Back

I know it has been a while and I admit I am not very good at keeping everyone up to date. My biggest news is that I am training for the Moab half marathon, so I spend most of my free time running and doing intramurals. This will be the longest i have ever ran. The race is on March 8. For intramurals this year I am involved in basketball and innertube water polo. It should be lots of fun. I also recently volunteered to be a coach of a girls athletic team but I cannot say what that is yet. You'll have to guess.

Trip to Las Vegas

Becca, myself, and Bryan at the Las Vegas BYU game. We had great seats except for the back side of the big guy below that we constantly had to see. GO COUGARS!!!

Here he is. If you look closely yoy can see him surrounded by BYU fans. At one point of the game he game his megaphone to the BYU dan on his right to sing the fight song. As long as the fans were drunk they were nice.

This is the group we got tickets with. we had a good size. if you look at my right arm it has a brace on it. that is another story of its own. I will just say two things. I don't eat fruit snacks anymore and the ER has a new good story to put in their records. It is interesting teaching with no thumb to use on my right hand.

Yes, Jerusha, it is true we found Pooh Corner. It really exists.

We got to stop by the Las Vegas Temple. It looks a lot like the Portland temple. It even has an atrium inside.

I also spent a some time in St. George with Grandma. she is great. We went to the Temple together, took a walk, watched a movie and played card games and went to bed and 12:00 at night. who else can say they have stayed up that late having a party with their Grandma.

In front of the Coca cola factory on the strip.

This is the City

Food in Las Vegas!!!

Below is a picture Brian and i took in the 3D M&M movie at the factory. It is a fun idea, but i definitly got a headache.
