Weekend with DDaddy and Nana

I feel bad, I haven't blogged about our good times in Ila Georgia with D-Daddy and Nana! Their hospitality was again unmatched, with unbelievable amounts of good food and love. It was a little strained because Trey and Brooklyn were sick while we were there, but it was still great to be with them and I enjoyed the true southern experience for the Cunuck in me! I am still amazed by the south when I go down to visit them. It truly is as different from what I know as Australia or any part of Europe! Their language, customs and food are totally foreign and wonderful!


We got 13lbs of pecans from these people. True small town Southerners!

We passed this food stand on our way home and I had to get a photo because it is basically D-Daddy's kitchen!


Now I know where Trey got his knack for charming the ladies! D-Daddy picked these from a bush next to their house. Can you believe it! Flowers like that in February! Now that's southern living!

Paige! This is Arian's wife Jill. I love your blog. I'm so sorry to hear you had to have that scary experience with Brooklyn at the ER, but I'm glad she's doing better. Your southern experience looks like a lot of fun. Thanks for keeping this updated!

Paige and Trey,

Wow, this is so random, my wife leaves a message and then I leave the next one. i hope you get this, I would rather email but this will do. I happened upon your blog this evening and recalled the enjoyable times we have shared. I am so happy that you are enjoying life and family. It is incredible to think about how swift the pace of life is. It seems remarkable to think that it has been 4 years since I lived in Provo and saw you more regularly. Well, I hope our path will cross again soon, until then we should have a few chats on the phone.

Love all Three of you!

Option for a Healthy Birth

I am not typically a big writer on my blog. I usually just post a few dozen photos of my adorable child and make little comments below. Well, I need some sort of outlet for all of my frustrations and thoughts and would love some feedback on them. As many of you know, I ended up getting a C-section with Brooklyn after planning on a completely natural birth with the help of Hypnosis. That is a whole nother story, and I wont' go into it, but I learned a lot about the what I want and need to have a healthy delivery. After extensive research into the process of birth, I know that it is possible for me to have a beautiful, natural birth and the things that that entails really aren't extreme and are in fact proven to be healthier choices for both me and my baby. (For our book group this month, we are reading "Gentle Birth Choices" by Barbara Harper, which is one of several books I have read on the topic and one that I would highly recommend - as well as the documenary ...

Washington D.C.

So I am finally getting around to catching up on the blog! My excuse for not blogging for months is that life has been insane - don't we all have that excuse though? Here is a brief description of mine though. Blogs to come. October 10th, Trey left for DC and I had a few days to get everything together for 3 weeks away. I decided to bottle a dozen or so bottles of Grapejuice, throw a dinner party etc. But soon we were off. We spent 11 amazing days in DC with our INCREDIBLE friends the Boeys. They were so hospitable and fun! (Adding to the fun and craziness of it all, My Sister Brooke and her family just happened to be there at the same time, and my BYU roommate Sariah and BFF from Childhood Kelly both live there) (SEE BLOG) Straight from D.C., we went to Georgia for 5 days to visit Trey's Grandparents. It was amazing and I will blog soon about that! Spent Halloween there As soon as I got home, my dear companion from Taiwan was in town, so I met up with her and 2 of my oth...
