The Rise and Fall of a GREAT Fort!

Well it’s now 6 days since we learned via 2 home pregnancy tests that we are expecting and so far it seems the pregnancy symptoms come and go.  In my first pregnancy having my symptoms disappear might have caused me to become alarmed but I remember that every day being pregnant is different.  I’ve been [...]

A Really Great Day!

I am officially on Vacation as of today (Monday) and truthfully I couldn’t be happier.  Yesterday was a really great day – in fact the entire weekend was just a really awesome time with the family.  When we got up this morning we were surprised to find out that Victoria (The MIL) had brought us [...]

A Day Outdoors!

We had a really great day today enjoying the weather while we visited Nana and Papa!  I thought I’d blog today with a few pictures of the day.  Earlier we had gotten Jacob’s hair cut by a nightmare hair dresser so it was nice to relax and enjoy a barbeque with the family! Jacob’s hat [...]
