Amelia is a MOMMY...

It seemed appropriate to blog about my trip to Utah last month for Amelia's baby shower. SHE HAD HER BABY TODAY...I cried when I got the call this morning that she was in labor. I totally lost it when I got the picture text from the proud GRANDMA BARBARA!!! Poor Mikey Alt (a YM from my ward) was in the car and was a little confused as to why I was teary eyed over a picture text. Brittany explained as best she could, but I think Mikey was still perplexed! (it's obviously a girl thing!) Last month my amazing sister called me and asked if I would like to come to Utah for a day and be a surprise gift for Amelia at her baby shower...HELLO--YES!!! I was so excited, and grateful to my sister for footing the bill...FIRST CLASS too! It was a quick trip, but I was thrilled to be apart of the Kearl girl shower! THANKS ANNE! I flew in at 3:00ish and the shower was at 6 and then I flew home the next morning at 10!!! CRAZY FUN!!!
All of the Kearl girl cousins were there, but MARIA...too bad most of them had left when we got around to taking pictures! Grandma Betty was in HEAVEN! It was so fun to see everyone, I hadn't seen some of these guys since I moved away over 8 years ago! Such a fun memory made!
This is Amelia taking a picture of me...we were mocking all of the pictures being taken! (shocking I know that Millie & I were mocking!) Millie was so cute pregnant. I got a surprise in return and found out that Megan was pregnant too! I CAN'T BELIEVE THOSE BROWN GIRLS ARE MOMS!!!
After the shower, we dropped Grandma Betty off and I went in to see Grandpa...he was watching a football game and wasn't paying any attention to who came in and was talking to him. I got right in his face and said "Grandpa it's HEIDI!" He was shocked and stood and gave me a hug and a kiss...priceless! It was fun to have them show me all of their Christmas decorations. LOVE THESE GUYS!!!

This is beautiful baby ISAAC JAMES HANSEN...isn't he soo cute? So happy for Millie and TJ, they will be great parents! I can't wait to meet him in person! Lots of love to sweet Mil...triple love that girl! CONGRATS MOMMY!!!
