2010 in Review

So to start off my first post i'm going to do a little review of the exciting and memorable things we did in 2010. Here it goes...

Adam's sister Julie got married in February. They had a nice dinner/ceremony at the Prarie Schonner in Ogden. Everything was so pretty, and Julie looked amazing. I wish I had more pictures of her wedding. I guess that can be another resolution of mine...take more pictures/not forget my camara.


Adam and I all gussied up at the wedding!

We were also able to attend a couple Jazz games! We were able to sit in the lower bowl for one of the games compliments of Adam's employer LSI. The other game we were in the upper bowl, but we still had a good time with all the crazy drunk fans that were by us!
Look how close we were to the court!
 Fun time in the upper bowl!

In 2010 we were also able to go on a couple fun trips! Both our employers took us on such fun trips, so we really lucked out. We were able to go to San Francisco with the people I work with. It was so much fun, and we were able to do some fun things like...
Go see Wicked on Broadway!

 Tour Alcatraz!

Adam's employer took us on a week long cruise to Mexico! It was really relaxing, and we at tons of good food. Good thing I was pregnant, so I had a good excuse to pig out.

 At a hotel we snuck into to swim, and lay on the beach.

The Harris family reunion is always a must. Every July it is held and is always a good time. One activity that always gives everyone a good laugh is when we limbo. I had my baby bump starting to show, so I opted out this year. Adam and my Mom weren't going to let the young flexible kids show them up though....
My mom is actually pretty good at the limbo
Adam did pretty good too

We were able to go up to Bear Lake with my family for a few days and enjoy boating and relaxing. We also went up to the our friend's the Cooks cabin in the Fall. I am terrible at taking pictures as mentioned before, so I only got a few. We also went to Lava Hot Springs with Adams's mom, and camping with Adam's Dad. Of course I forgot my camara and neither of those trips have pictures documenting them.

 What a cute couple.. I just sat in the boat and worked on my tan while everyone else skied and wakeboarded. I guess that was one of the downfalls to being prego.

One of the most exciting things that happened to us in 2010 was the birth of our sweet baby boy. We found out on March 1, 2010 that I was pregnant and were so excited. I overall had a wonderful pregnancy. I never got sick and was able to work unitl a week before I delivered.

36 weeks pregnant
My water broke a 3am on October 27. We headed to the hospital where I was in labor for 18 hours and ended up pushing for 2.5 hours. It was such an incredible experience, although I am glad its over.
Mason James Dahl arrived at 8:27pm weighing 6lbs 9oz and 19.5in.
 Getting all cleaned up!
A little swollen, but so cute!
 First family picture. Don't mind me, I was exhausted if you can't tell.
 First bath! He had the biggest cone head because he was born posterior. He also had a sore on top of his head from being in the birth canal for quite awhile.
Getting ready to go home!
 3 days old
Mason has quite the hairstyle going on. We like to call it the Birds Nest cause he has tons of hair in the back and on the sides, but none on top. Hopefully he gets some on the top soon to even out things.
He loves his Daddy

 This picture makes me laugh. He always holds his hand like this when he sleeps.
First Christmas as a family.!

We had a wonderful 2010 and feel so blessed to have had a healthy baby boy. So far 2011 has not disappointed, so lets hope it continues that way!
