A New Addition

Probably the biggest change that we have had in the last few months is the news of a new addition to the Crowther Household. That's right....I'm pregnant!

With the news of my pregnancy, we are expecting a new little Crowther on April 5. So far, I have lost 10 pounds with all of the sickness. Yay :S

I am so excited for April to come, but at the same time I am more terrified than I can even express. The thought of a little child being 100% dependent on me scares me, but I am so excited to start our own little family.

Our families are both very excited. My dad thinks its a girl and my sister in law Riley thinks its a boy. I should probably mention that we are not going to find out what we are having until the little baby is ready to come in to this world. If you would like to make a bet, feel free to make a comment on this post. There might be a small prize...there is nothing greater than the satisfaction of being right :)

Here is a picture of me at 10 weeks - I will post every 10 weeks I guess.
Right now I am at 14!

Good Bye Old Condo!


We said good bye to our first home as a couple last month. It was bitter sweet. We have moved into a much nicer home that has a basement that we can rent out. So that is super exciting! I thought I would be more sad to leave, butI didn't even cry. We just got everything all moved out and said good bye.
Here are a few memories from our first home:
* Moving in to the dirtiest place I've ever been in my life.
* Renovating an 1100 square foot condo with Brice's parents, Ben and Kaley, my parents, Kyle and Brice and I. It was so crowded!
* 24 Parties with the loser presidents!
* Our white elephant party before we were married, then again the next year. I can't wait for this years to see what crazy gift Cameron comes up with.
* Sleeping the cement floor the night before they put in our carpet.
* OUR NEW CARPET!
* Barbeques!
We really enjoyed our old home, but are very excited to start our lives in this new home!

Cake Class

I took a cake decorating class this summer. It was funny. I am no artist by any mean, but I had a blast learning how to make flowers and do some different piping techniques. I am embarrassed to post these photos, but I am also kind of proud of my skills :) This one was mostly just me goofing off with the different colors of icing!
This one was my favorite! Who doesn't love grapes!
Here is my clown. So cute!
Final class. We did roses this day, but I love polka dots so I had to add them in.

Home to Sanford!

We got to go home to Sanford for the 24th of July this year. It was a lot of fun. I had to miss my family reunion on my side for it, but we got to go to that last year. Sanford was a blast though and I am so glad that we went. I had a great time with Brice's family and friends and being a part of something that they have celebrated their whole lives!


This was Manassa's annual 24th of July Celebration. Kaley's mother in law enters her float every year. This year she had the three little girls sitting on it as part of the Toy Story theme. It was soo cute. She won 1st place in her category!!







After the parade, we all went the the races. This is Melody's husband Tyler. I've never done this kind of stuff before so I was thoroughly intrigued by the entire Celebration. It was a blast.






This is the nasty caterpillar that Johnny found. It was gross. He decided it would be hilarious to throw it at some girls who were sitting in front of it. I'm not going to lie, it was kind of funny to see how fast those girls moved from where they were sitting, but if he had thrown it at me, I don't think he would still be alive today!

One night, Brice decided that he would shoot a bird that was sitting on the fencepost so innocently. He actually hit it. I was so mad. It wasnt pestering anyone or anything, he just wanted to prove a point. Anyway, I decided that I wanted to shoot the gun to but not at a bird. So after only two tries, I hit this can. I am awful at shooting so I thought "surely this has to be a fluke" so I tried again. Nope, it wasnt a fluke. I hit it AGAIN!! I'm pretty much a professional now. If anyone wants lessons, I am more than willing to take payment for it.

This was the most fun that I have had in Sanford. It was fantastic. The weather was beautiful, and the best part was, the wind wasnt blowing!

This Post is for Andy

Well - Brice and I have been getting some mean text messages from our friends Ryan and Andy (mostly Andy) about not updating our blog, so I split it into several different blog posts just for her.
A lot has changed in our life since May 26....
