We went a couple of weekends ago up the Snow Bird with my friend, her sister, and our families. We had fun sledding in the fall snow and we rode the GIANT lift up to the top of the mountain. One car can fit around 30 people in it - tons of fun!!!!

Peanut and Binki (How it came about)

I've had the nick name Binki for as long as i can remember. Now my dad is the only one who calls me by it, which I kind of like. It's a sweet connection that we have. Apparently the only brand of pacifier I would accept as a baby was Binki. So my parents dubbed me for it.

When I was pregnant with Adrian, Chris and I went to a Halloween party, I was about eight months along, and was trying to come up with a costume for a very pregnant woman, when I got the inspiration to dress up as an M&M and my pregnant belly would represent the peanut - thus I would be a peanut M&M. Chris and I had a good laugh about it, however, since we chose not to learn the sex of our baby, we began calling our unborn baby "peanut" to avoid the term "the baby". I don't call Adrian by it now, but I thought it was a cute representation.
