Arizona, Father's Day and Beach

June was a busy month. Jovi and I took a trip to Arizona to visit Mimi and Aunt Kacy.


Jovi spent a lot of time at the back door waiting to go swimming or play with the dogs outside.




Their pool has a slide, one of his favorite parts!



We took a day trip to Oceanside to see Daniel and Jen's little girl Marley's blessing.



Jovi had his first trip to the beach


You can tell how much he enjoyed the cold water!


He was a lot happier in the shade playing with his toys.


Brian's 1st offical Father's day was a huge party. Jovi had fun helping Dad open his presents.


Pictures before we left for church. Handsome boys!



Dinner was delicious!


Jovi just loves posing for pictures, even in his birthday suit. Who does'nt love those cute buns?! Brian thought it would be ok to leave him naked while he grabbed a diaper and his jammies. Guess who was clean the carpet later. Not me ;)

Parties, Mother's day and lots of pool time!

We had such a blast this month. Mason Dahl, a little boy in our ward had a great birthday part filled with pirates, indians, Peter Pan and Captain Hook. Jovi dressed up as a little pirate and looked so cute with his facial hair. They had Captain Jack Sparrow come, he was the hit of the party. Mostly with all the Moms ;)





Best Mother's Day!





Fun times with Cousin Eli!


Jovi just LOVES the water and we have a blast in our pool.

K-Earth sponsored a family pool night once a month at the Hyatt in Huntington and we took advantage of it and had a total blast with the family.

Mud Run!

OK so April is a fun month in our house. Brian's birthday is on the 11th and our anniversary is on the 25th. Unfortunately I for some reason don't have pictures of either of those events. We had fun nonetheless! The day before our 2nd anniversary I ran in a 10k mud run in Irvine with some girlfriends. Not my best showing, but we had fun anyway!
Jovi had fun watching from the sidelines.


Home stretch


We finished altogether

Surveying the damage



Jovi has a cousin that was born exactly 1 week before him. We love our cousin Payton!

St. Patty's Day and Little Ruby!

March was a busy month for us. We welcomed the newest Holmstrom into the the family. Scott and Kimber had baby Ruby! Jovi was so excited to welcome her into the world.





Jovi's 1st St. Patrick's day. I think he wore it well!



Bath time is definitely one of Jovi's favorite past times.



1st trip to Chuck E Cheese. Didn't leave the booth the whole time but I think he enjoyed the company, noise and lights!

Real Food-Love is in the air!

Jovi officially loves everything that we put in his mouth. He is such a great eater and I hope that never changes!





First case of bed head!


Getting ready for church. This little boy is going to break some hearts!
