Our Spring Project

Here are some pictures of what we have been doing in the yard this spring. We are excited to get our garden going and to work in the yard. We've planted some tomatoes and peppers for now and plan to get the rest of our seeds planted this week. It was a lot of work, but now we will be able to enjoy it! We've also included some pictures of the flowers in the front, they are petunias, African daisies, and purple verbena.

Ok, Ok, I'll make the announcement :)

So everyone is probably wondering what the announcement is about, well I better say something before time runs out. :) Yes, Roger and I would like to announce that we are expecting! We are very excited and look forward to becoming parents. Our due date is July 12th; however, coming late is fairly common in my family so we will see what happens. Although I am sure my brother would love for he/she to come on his birthday in July.

I have already started to feel the baby kick for a couple of weeks now and I just love to sit there and feel for the baby. Every now and then I feel movement that lets me know that he/she is still there, growing healthy and strong.

Our ultrasound is scheduled for the last week of February so we will keep everyone posted. For now we have been having fun listening to the little ones heart beat!

New Year's & the Family

I know this is a little late, but I thought I would share a little bit of my families visit over New Year's. My family was able to come out for a week and this is some of our adventures. My dad got a leather whip for Christmas so he brought it out to practice on. Trev, being the expert he is from his mission, gave it a whirl and got quite a few good cracks in there! I am sure our neighbors where wondering what the heck was going on!

Alyx got a new little puppy for Christmas and brought the cute little guy up. His name is Lord Rothwick Longfellow Percival, Percy for short. He is the cutest thing ever! And his sister was up for adoption, but Roger didn't think our back yard was ready for a dog just yet. :(

New Year's Eve the Town here put on some festivities so we thought we would go and check them out. They had fire pits where you could roast marshmallows and they provided all the "fixins" for smores, but we by the time we got their they were all out. But we did get in on some of their hot chocolate!

Other than that we stayed warm at home and played games. It was a great time and I loved seeing my family again. We also got the privledge to take Trev to the airport and I asked him to pose for me on the way down.

But then he was sweet and really smiled for me. :)

He is such a goof! Thanks mom and dad for taking the time to come and see us! We enjoyed having you and hope to see you again real soon!
