A NAME

Since it is pretty close to when our new little girl will be joining our family, Chad and I have been trying to decide, for sure, what we want to name our baby.  Much to McKinzley, Taylin, Oaklee, and sad to say, Chad, we are not going to be naming her Liberty Bell.  I know, I am mean.  But I decided that I wanted to like the name that we were naming our baby a lot, not try and convince myself that I like it.  Needless to say we came up with something different.  The name that we have pretty much decided on is.........Pemberlynn.  Chad came up with the name (just like all of our other girls except for Oaklee).  I really like this name so I think we have our final decision.  Let us know what you think.

A weekend away

Chad left this morning on vacation with the company that he works for.  Every year his boss takes the guys that work for him (yes, just the guys.  Not their wives or families :(  ) down to southern Utah to go boating.  Usually they only go down to Sand Hollow, which is pretty close to St. George.  But this year they decided to go down to Lake Mead so that they can drive the hour to Vegas and go wild!  So, since Chad is on vacation I decided that I would go on vacation too.  I decided to come up to my parents house for the weekend.  My poor parents.  My girls are definitely ecstatic about our vacation!  My parents are very gracious to let us be here.  Tomorrow we are going to go shopping (which is always an adventure with 4 little girls) and then we are just going to come back here and hang out.  I'm really excited to spend time with my mom.  She is an extremely busy woman! So, its nice whenever we get to see her.  I'm also glad that I don't have to be home by myself with the girls.  Not that I can't handle the girls, its just that I don't like to be home alone at night.  We don't live on the best street, and it scares me to not have Chad with me.  I know, i'm pathetic, oh well.  I'm glad that Chad is getting this break though.  He definitely deserves a vacation!   He does so much for our family.  And i'm glad that it gave me the opportunity to stay with my parents.
