Pittsburgh/Wedding/Corn

We've been having a lot of fun the past few weeks. I guess we're just trying to fit everything in before the end of the summer.

At the beginning of August, we went to Pittsburgh to visit Greg's cousin Katie who just moved there. It was so much fun spending time with their family and going into the city. We're happy that we have some family that lives within a few hours drive.

After we got back from our trip, Brinley and I flew back to Utah for one of my best friends weddings. It was fun to spend the day with her and see old friends.

Holly and her awesome new husband Blake.

The next day Brinley and I went to West Weber, where my Mom is from, with my family for the annual corn fest! Basically we cooked a ton of corn that has been picked from my Grandpa's fields, cut it off the cobb, put it into ziplock bags and freeze enough to last the entire year. Normally I'm not around for this event, so it was fun to be apart of it with everyone.

Brinley's favorite part was eating all the excess corn off the cob


And playing with Kole.


This is Brinley after our LONG flight home. I only wish she would have slept like this on the plaine. Greg surprised her with this balloon when he came to pick us up, she loved it!!!

Here are some more pictures of our summer in Utah!

A little project

Last week my friend Margie told me that her preschool was getting rid of kitchen set items. I was so excited because we've been looking for Brinley a kitchen set for a while. So I went with her to pick it up. The reason the school was getting rid of their old set was because they had gotten a new one. That being said they looked a little worn but still worked as good as new.

After picking them up and bringing them into our apartment I decided that these pieces had some potential to look really cute! The next day Brinley and I went to the store, bought some white paint and paint brushes and I went to work! It look me about 3 days from start to finish, but it was a lot of fun and I think they turned out darling!! Just call me Martha!
