Belated Announcement

Most everyone knows by now but I feel bad I never made a big announcement. I mean this is about the coolest news I have ever been able to share. So if you see this and already know, just pretend it is new news and be happy with me all over again!

We are having a baby! We are really excited, sometimes still in shock, but loving the idea of it (so far). Not loving being sick though:)
DUE DATE: March 13th



Jake's favorite picture


Names so far: JJ (Jake Junior), Stan, Tarak, Bob and Shack. Feel free to post any REAL name options.

A Jam Packed Week of Fun

First bonfire of the season, breakfast with the hiking gals, Supercross in the snow, no more Young Women's (although I will miss them terribly), dinner with Jake, dinner with old roommates, lunch with my cousins, Health Days 10k Race, and dinner with the book club!!!
Thanks to all, this made turning 30 a heck of a lot more bearable!







Jake living out his "AxMen" fantasy

Can you say "WHITE TRASH!"?

Our TV died a few weeks ago and this is our new sweet setup in the living room. What do you think? I am feeling like we don't really need to get a new TV or move the old big black one out... this looks great! (Insert HEAVY sarcasm) Notice the power button is missing off the TV, a pencil or a pinky finger is required to turn on or off.

What I Have Been Up To

A few people have asked what I've been up to since I haven't updated the blog in a while. Well, I have just been busy building my dream house!


Mmmmmmm....
I know I will be very happy (and large) living here.

I was going to do a quick recap of the last few months, but it is anything but quick...

Reunion

Over Thanksgiving I was able to hang out with my favorite cousins. Even if it was for just one night it was great.



Megan got to stay up late enough to join the party for a little while. Isn't she dang cute?!

Hiking Club

Now that the weather has gotten cold, the hiking club has become the "Whatever Club"












Hunting Snakes


Searching for the Weeping Lady in the Cemetery


Tummy Yummies


Crystal Hot Springs (it was just too cold to hike!)



Scary Movie Night

Halloween 2009

The "Tooth Fairy" at work

My fairy friend Brynn (I need to hire her seamstress)


Jake wouldn't dress up this Halloween - is anyone surprised? We had some fun trick-or-treaters and actually had some leftover candy, YAY YAY YAY!
