Big day for my two favorite people

Happy 1st Birthday to Lucy, and Happy (sort-of) first Father's Day to Sterling! (It's the first one we've celebrated anyway. Last year we were a bit to distracted to really commemorate things. Although, I guess Lucy being born two nights before was about as celebratory of a Father's Day as Sterling could have asked for).

We had a nice laid back day. We gave Lucy a few little gifts in the morning, and after church we headed up to the mountains, where it seems like spring is *finally* arriving.


Here's Lucy in the BYU gear Sterling got for her. Evidently, we need to get her prepared for football season.


This is the quilt I made for Lucy for her birthday. I absolutely made it the laziest, cheating-est way possible, and it still took me a ridiculous amount of time, and I'm thoroughly resolved to never make another as long as I live. Also, I totally stole the idea from *someone* on the internet. Which I know really narrows it down. Anyway, I can't find the link to give them credit, but I would like to. That counts, right?


My two favorite people in the whole world. The best husband and father, and the best baby girl I could have asked for. I feel insanely lucky, every single day.


Lucy's one year appointment is Tuesday, I'll give her stats then, and a rundown of all the awesome stuff about her at one year old. Prepare for a long list, since I'm convinced (to an annoying degree) that she's pretty much the coolest kid ever.

What the *@%$*? Sorry, but come on. First the hat and now the quilt. You are a freaking rock star. Ya ya, Lucy's adorable, blueberry eyes, yada yada yada. But more about your freakish hidden talents. The quilt is absolutely gorgeous. I don't care what part of it is "cheating", it is still an amazing feat. You are incredible. Sorry for the swearing and gushing. I know neither are appropriate for blogs,but too bad. You're awesome.

Happy Birthday to Lucy!! I can't believe she is already 1. It's been a good year, huh? And I love the quilt. I've always wanted to make one, but I can't even sew on a button. But I love quilts.

Your quilt is soooo cute! Is it machine stitched, or did you do it all by hand?
Seeing these photos makes me miss you guys.
