The Announcement


This week we told everyone "The News". Spencer and I are having a baby!
We are so excited.

The baby is due July 12th, we find out if we are having a boy or girl in six weeks, and luckily I haven't been too sick! I have felt nausiated and of course the other fun pregnancy stuff.



The Toslons, our cute neighbors and friends, brought Spencer, Baby, and Me some delicious chocolate cup cakes .... WITH CANDLES to congratulate us! We felt so special. We even lit the candles and blew them out. It was so thoughtful of them, we are grateful for loving neighbors.


p.s. Richard and his cute date Maddie were at our house when Tyler and Nicole, the Tolsons, brough the cup cakes over. They got to witness and participate in the fun, sorry we don't have more detailed pictures. We had so much fun with Rich Razzel Bedazzle the World and Maddie Bust-a-cap-eed! Thanks for a fun evening.


Big THANKS to everyone for all of your kind words and support.

Love, Spencer, Alicia, and Baby

Aggies vs. BYU football with our Peterson friends (please note the sister-in-laws in the back ... priceless) Thanks for saving GREAT seats Meghan, Jake, and Kristina. The Aggies WON! They beat BYU! Historical. We were so close to the front that we got to rush the field at the end of the games. So Fun.

Priesthood session in Salt Lake. Daddy Mike and Spank.

General Conference weekend in Sandy, Utah with the West and Hernandez families. What a special evening. Elder and Sister West were one of Spencer's favorite senior couples on his mission. The Hernandez family are also lifelong friends.

12 people, 8 pumpkins, 1 tiny apartment..... priceless.
(At one point we had 14 people carving pumpkins at a time. We had to put our table upside down on our counter-top. We had apple cider and donuts for our FHE treat)

S + A = LOVE

Seasoned chicken, steamed cabbage, rice, sauce, and green olives
