Say cheese!

My sister Anna is entering some photography in the Davis County Fair. She needed a model so we took Ella to the old court house and took some pictures. Enjoy!

Baby Burnham #2 is a......

We had our reveal party last week! My mom was so nice and planned the whole thing for us since we didn't know what we were having (She did a great job at keeping a secret!).
She bought silly string cans and wrapped them in paper. We invited family up and had everyone guess what we were having. The majority of the family guessed boy...

We then went outside and sprayed silly string off the deck to reveal the gender.
Darrin was the lucky one and got the silly string that was the right color. Everyone else had yellow silly string.

It was hard to tell the color of the silly string but Darrin was spraying a BLUE can! So we are having a ...
BOY!!!!

We are thrilled to have a little boy joining our family.

 We then enjoyed some yummy treats and visiting with family. We are so excited to have family around again! Thanks mom for making our reveal party so much fun!!

 

Our Ohio friends wanted to know what we were having so we thought it would be fun for the them get something in the mail. My mom made some scratch off cards for them to find out.

 

Law School Graduation!

WE DID IT!!

Darrin graduated yesterday (May 4, 2013) from the University of Dayton School of Law.
The ceremony was nice and short and then we enjoyed a brunch at the law school after.
I am so proud of Darrin for all his hard work and dedication the last 3 years.

Waiting in line for his name to be called

Ella was a trooper through the entire ceremony! We brought her little high chair and she sat in it and colored, ate smarties, read stories, and even took a nap! 

The Brunch at the Law School

Graduating Class 2013

Later in the day we had some dear friends come to a park for a little celebration. We named all of the food after some law words (manslaughter meatballs, trademark treats, copyright cookies, legal lemonade, etc.)
We couldn't have done this Law School thing if it wasn't for our dear friends and family who supported us, encouraged us, and prayed for us. Thank you everyone! We love you and will miss rubbing shoulders with everyone in Ohio.

Congratulations Darrin! We love you and are proud of you!

Now on to the next adventure!

A walk in the park

For the last 3 years we have had the chance to live across the street from a park, pond (with duckies), and the Fraze (an outdoor amphitheater with some great concerts!) 

Ella has enjoyed going for walks even in the freezing temperatures to see the ducks. We are so glad for some nice weather now so we don't have to bundle up!
Ella and I enjoyed a morning walk to see the ducks and smell some flowers. We will sure miss this area!
