Big News!

OK, so for those of you who don't know (and to answer Angie's question as to why I have not been feeling well) we are expecting a new addition to our family in April. We could not be more excited especially since we have been waiting for this for awhile now. I was really surprised at our first Doctors appointment. When he did the ultrasound I expected just to see a little bean shape but it looked like an actually baby in there. Imagine that! Right now I am just over 10 weeks and my due date is April 22. I am anxious to get through the first trimester. I am not digging this morning sickness thing so much.

What I did on my summer vacation!

I know I have taken forever to post these pictures but here you go Heather!

The second week of September we headed down with Paul's family to the Beach. We rented a house in Frisco on Hatteras Island in the Outer Banks. Even though I felt sick just about the entire time (and the ferry rides didn't help either) we still had a ton of fun. Plans are already in the making for next years beach trip.

Cleaning Crabs-There was alot of this going on all week.

Anyone whose knows Paul knows he had to get in as much fishing as possible.

Paul and Heather kayaking on the ocean.

This was the beach at Orakoke. We rode a ferry over there and just spent the day hanging out.

Paul & Amanda's Wedding

Here are pictures of the wedding. It turned out so beautiful. The only pictures I was able to get of Paul and Amanda was from behind. (It got a little busy) but Amanda looked beautiful.

Although he slept through it all, Cannon made the cutest little ring bearer.

Bachelorette Party

Chanda and Char but together a fun little bachlorette party for Amanda. We didn't do anything special. We just wanted to have some girl fun.

They put together this cute little outfit for her. Doesn't she look like a Rockstar?

We went bowling but we wanted to have some fun with it so we put together this little game. We took a deck of playing cards and each time someone went up to bowl they had to draw a card. Whichever card they drew determined how they had to bowl.

Mom's favorite seemed to be the playboy style. She got really good at it!!!!!!

Idaho!!!

So last week Paul & Amanda got married so I got to take a trip to Idaho. It was a short trip but I tried to squeeze as much in as possible. Although things were a little stressful trying to get in last minute things for the wedding, it was tons of fun hanging out with the fam.

I havn't seen Oaklee since Christmas. She has grown so much. She is so funny. I miss her already.

I always have to scan through the $1 section at Target and they had this cute little princess set so I couldn't resist.

She is on her way to Rodeo Queen

I was able to go to lunch with all my friends from high school. It it crazy how fast time goes by. It was nice to see everyone and how they are all doing.

Chanda and I can be a little goofy sometimes, like here. Char had gotten extentions so Chanda and I decided we wanted some too. Unfortunatly she only had enough for us to do rat tails. To bad that trend didnt stick.

Paul must have missed me because he sent me flowers at work the day after I got back. He is so sweet. I couldn't ask for a better husband.

The Joys of Nieces

This was at the Childrens Museum. Camree did have a big turtle behind her that she had all set up but right before I took the picture this tiny kid came and stole it. (I didn't tell her that)

Kyra played the pirate role very well.
We also enjoyed a day at Lake Gaston. I think everyone had alot of fun.

I have to say, I love being an aunt. Last week we had Camree & Kyra staying with us while Holly, Cameron & James went to Idaho. We stayed super busy and had a ton of fun. I came home from work today & it was a little depressing because all I came home to was a sleeping husband and a messy house. I wasn't quite ready for them to leave yet. I will have to post some pictures of all the fun we had once I download them all.

New to Blogging

Paul & I finally decided to jump on the blogger bandwagon. For now it is just the two of us so I can't promise it will be an exciting blog but we will do our best.

I am still trying to figure all of this out but I am sure I will get in eventually.
