With This Ring.....

Five years ago Friday, Chadwick and I were sealed in the Albuquerque, New Mexico Temple and joined by friends and family for a small ring ceremony. So many changes have occurred during this time!

1 name change from Adams to Hunt
2 degrees in veterinary medicine
2 moves - 1 big, 1 small
1 "new" car
2 new homeowners
2 sets of renters in the other side of our duplex
4 clinics where we have held jobs since graduation
3 additions to our family - 1 cat, 1 daughter, then 1 dog



And those are just the big things. We are blessed to be near family and good friends and miss those are are not close geographically. We've have our ups and downs, but we are learning to enjoy the ride and take each adventure as it comes. I love you, Chadwick!!

Morgan's Slide




I've been wanting to get Morgan a little slide for the backyard, something to climb and play on. And last week I found a perfect little thing at a used kids' clothing store! She's able to climb up by herself and though she prefers help down the slide, she can do it!


Tonight we had Chadwick's Nana over for dinner and after the two of them played a few games of Yahtzee. Morgan wanted to play as well and was given the cup and two die of her own. She sat on the floor next to Chadwick and shook the cup, poured out the die, and did it again. It was so cute! It's amazing how quickly she picks up on things. And soon, I'm sure it will help me recognize what faults exist in my speech, gestures, etc.....

Catch Up

The month of May has come and gone....and with it several colds, Morgan's first slightly black eye, a case of pink eye for me, a double ear infection for Morgan, a visit from my mom, and a visit from Chadwick's brother, (Nathan) and family. I feel like I spent the month coughing, sleeping, and living on autopilot! With June has come several days of warm weather which we have all welcomed with open arms. It's nice to have had such a wet spring since we haven't had to water our lawn yet, but the days of 60 for the high are getting a little old.

Recap: while Mom was here we visited Bruneau Dunes State Park with James and his family and enjoyed a day in the sun, playing in the sand, and trying to avoid mosquito bites. Darwin came with and was one tired pup from all of his running during our time there. Morgan played in the dirt, which makes her happy, and Jordynn and Gideon built sand castles. Unfortunately, it was over this weekend that Morgan was developing her ear infections so Mom saw the more cranky side of my little girl....and here they are taking a snooze together one afternoon. It was fun to have her with us and she had the chance to spend some one-on-one time with Morgan, which is important. While she was here, Morgan didn't want me to do anything for her!

And I was so proud that Morgan wasn't super overwhelmed by the affection and attention of her cousins over Memorial Weekend! We had a good visit with the Fort Collins Hunts....lots of time outside playing. Even the dads enjoyed being "boys" for a while!



















My favorite picture of Morgan this month is this one of her in her new pink sunglasses! She is 15 months old, for those who are wanting to count. =)
