Vocal Few, Baby Girl, and Family Vaca.

I maybe forgot to mention the time that I met the lead singer of my all-time favorite band (The Classic Crime) . He is in another band with his wifey called Vocal Few, which is also rad, and they did a living room tour! Since they aren't super well-known, it was a very small show here in Boise. Picture this: You walk into a living room containing your favorite musical artist, shake hands with him and his wife, play with their baby, listen to sweeeeeeeet music, get autographs, and snap a few photos together. Ah-may-zing.

Just me and my homies. No big deal. ;)

On July 31st we were able to find out that our baby is a GIRL! It was a super exciting day. I had to work before the appointment, and time crawled by. Throughout the appointment, baby girl was being slightly uncooperative. After many measurements and lots of time, the tech finally said, "Hm, well I think it's a girl but I'm going to need a better view." I wasn't a fan of the uncertainty, because I was trying not to get my hopes up for a girl! But she finally got a good view and confirmed that we are indeed having a girl. So exciting.

She's a cutie isn't she?

I have started feeling her movements and I absolutely love it. I also hit the halfway mark!

In case you are wondering.... 137 days until Christmas and baby's due date. :)

We spent the first week of August on a vacation with my family for my Mom's family reunion. We spent a couple days in Spokane playing with family. They have awesome parks and great scenery.

 Spokane has metal goats that will eat your trash.

 They also have giant wagons you can ride. Or just slide down.

 Ammon took a nap on the wheel.

 Ammon performed in a musical while we were there.

 These gardens had lots of plants. See?

 We kissed like this the whole trip so nobody would feel awkward. 

We then went up to Creston, B.C. Ammon's first time in Canada! We learned some sad things. A: Canada Dairy Queens don't have Cherry dip cones or cherry dilly bars. B: American money is worth less in Canada currently. C: We may never convince the U.S. to serve gravy with their french fries. And that's just too dang bad!

It was seriously beautiful up there eh?

 We visited the glass house. It's made of 500,000 old formaldehyde bottles and is crazy awesome.

We got sunburns and mosquito bites and lots of Canadian candy. We watched the Olympics feverishly, played the harmonica a little too much, and spent way too long in a cramped car. 

It was good to be back in the U.S. and see MPH and Fahrenheit again, though our money is much less colorful.

That's all folks.
