Family Pics

Back in August we took our first official family pictures at Sears. Kirsten was a month old and we took some of her in her blessing dress and then some of us as a family. If you would like an actual photo of any of these just let me know and I can send them to you.

Our First House!!!

We are now happy home owners as of this past Tuesday. The house is in Sandy and only 1.6 miles away from Will's work, he couldn't be happier about the new commute. The house was built in the 70's and the previous owners had a cat so we are having to do some home repairs before we move as in painting the whole house, redo the upstairs flooring and a whole lot of yard work. Our goal move in date is Halloween. Hopefully we can do it.
The house has 4 bedrooms and two bathrooms with a living room and family room. Enjoy the pics!

Family Vacation!

We went to Wisconsin to visit with Will's family and stayed at their family cabin near Minocqua. We also stayed at another cabin for a few days. The Schmidt clan included, mom, dad, James, Lindsay, Eric, Collin, Bradley, and of course ourselves. The trip was totally fun and just what we needed. We went water skiing, tubing, swimming, and jet skiing. The water in the lakes there is so warm! I couldn't believe how great the water was, I am used to the freezing cold lakes in Utah so that was a nice change. Plus the weather was perfect. Pretty much the whole trip was perfect.



This trip contained a lot of firsts for Kirsten



















First time riding an airplane

































First time meeting Grandma and Grandpa Schmidt, Great Grandpa Schmidt and James
















First time jet skiing



















First time at a camp fire






We also thoroughly enjoyed ourselves at Culvers, probably a little too often ;)








The rest of the pictures are of us having a good time at the cabins.

Temple Trip

At the end of July we went to the Oquirrh temple open house, which was Kirsten's first trip to a temple at only 4 weeks old! Our favorite part was looking at in the sealing room mirrors as a family and seeing it go on forever. Coming in next to the coolest experience was seeing Russel M. Nelson while we were eating cookies and then getting to shake his hand.

The rest of the pictures are for you to see how cute our baby girl is. Enjoy!
