6 months

Happy 6 Months sweet little Cora!!


Cora finished her baby swim lessons at Hubbard Swim School



Started eating solid foods! It was a slow going adventure at first, but now she loves it all! 




She spends every week day with best friend Vivian :)


One day she started sleeping on her belly (she has never done it before) 
and now won't sleep any other way :)


We just love this sweet and happy girl!

Packard St. George Trip

The Packard siblings planned a trip to St. George to surprise their mom, Karen. 
In true Packard fashion is was adventurous and full of good times!

Cora had the sweetest set up while we were at the climbing wall.
She sat in her oasis content for over an hour:)


 


There was boys vs girls volleyball. 
Mind you that two of Weston's sisters play college volleyball:)







And also birthday celebrations! This month it was Ally, Becca, and my birthdays.







Here Comes the Gown

While in St. George I spent a day with my dear Aunt Susan. We were talking about my Grandma Luella and she mentioned that her Wedding Gown was currently in a wedding gown exhibit at the St. George Art Museum! The below gown was hers, she was married in 1947. My Aunt Susan wore the same gown at her wedding in 1987.  




There were gowns from every decade from the past 150 years! 
Oh I am such a sucker for historical textiles. Here were some of my favorites. 

1920's 
1930's

1990's

Thanks Aunt Susan for the amazing afternoon!

Sweet 27th Birthday

Oh blessed 27 years! This past year may be one of my favorite yet! For my birthday we planted my patio cactus flower garden! I still have not taken a picture of the finished project, but I plan to do that real soon. I also got red bamboo knit material from my mother in law that I made into a dress to wear on my birthday! :)
