The Pentons

This morning I finished the quilt top for baby Grace.  I know you're all dying to see it so here it is!

I'm finally posting some pics of our new apartment.  Granted it may not look like much to most, but it is a big improvement from the old apartment!  We have a lot more space for storage and the layout is a little better.  Oh, you also get to see the new couch that we bought!  Yes, I'm very excited about it because Craig and I can both lay down on it and not overlap :)

So, I've been wanting to go to dinosaur land ever since I've moved to Utah.  So a couple weekends ago just on a whim, we decided to go up there for a weekend, camp out over night and see the sights.  Well, we take the 3 hour drive (its up by Vernal) and we get there and we find out that the quarry where you see the dinosaur bones was closed for renovations...bummer.  So we thought there were other dinosaur-y things to do, so we found a campsite and set up our tent and as we were setting up, a ranger came around and informed us that the fossil walk was also recently closed, they actually closed it that day.  Double bummer, so on our trip to dinosaur land we saw no dinosaurs.  We did see petroglyphs aka ancient rock art, we hung out on a little beach next to green river and we saw a rock that looked like a turtle...exciting I know.  Next time we go to dinosaur land will be in 2 years when everything opens again, and we will call before we leave!

We have been working hard on our garden this year and I want to show you what we've got so far.  We are waiting patiently for our green tomatoes to turn red!!

So I went and saw the doctor yesterday and I weighed in at 25 lbs over my original weight.  For those who don't know you're only supposed to gain 25-30 lbs through the whole pregnancy!  Ahhh!  So I was like, what can I do?  She said eat healthy, lean meat, fruits and veggies, etc.  hello, that is all I eat.  Well, I think I will blame it on baby Grace, she is a big baby, I already have a feeling so I think once she gets out, I will be able to go back to my regular size...Right??  (don't judge me in the second pic, I haven't done my hair yet)

I just got done perusing the fabric store and I got some cute stuff that I wanted to show off.  I'm making a quilt for baby Grace, it's going to be a log cabin pattern and hopefully it turns out cute!
