May

One month has come and gone. Where is time going? Well I had a wonderful Mother's day. Bryce and I went up to Kolob and we went on a walk! Then we went to my Grandma's for dinner and my Mother-in-laws after to hang out.


 Posing by the car!
Bryce and I also celebrated our first year anniversary! I can't believe we've been married for a year! We didn't really do anything special mainly because we went to California in March for our anniversary. Bryce did get me a really cool gift though. He gave me a Cuisineart ice cream, yogurt and sorbet maker. 


Today I finally was able to use it and I made some delicious Chocolate Amaretto ice cream :) the thing I love about this ice cream maker is it has a place where you pour the ice cream mixture into, which is also very convenient for sampling. Mmmmm mmmm mmm. So I decided to put down the recipe below in case anyone wants to make it :) I got the recipe from foodnetwork.com I didn't come up with it on my own haha.

Baby Update!!

So Bryce and I went to the doctor yesterday and he said the baby could come at anytime :) But, he wants her to stay in for at least 2 weeks. We're trying to not get our hopes up but we are so excited to have Yasmynn come!
