Our Busy Life

Josh and I have been so busy the last month preparing for him to leave. We do have some good news, we are expecting and the baby is due February 7th. We are so excited. This summer has been filled with lots of trips and just spending time together. Here are a few pictures from our fun adventures this summer. Hopefully we will find out the gender of the baby in the next couple of weeks. I think I am going to email Josh the picture and let him guess. Just something fun for him since he can't be here for it.

Thunderbird Reception

Josh and I also had the opportunity to go to a reception put on by the church for the Thunderbirds. It was an amazing experience. We got to meet Elder L. Tom Perry, Elder M. Russell Ballard, Elder Robert D. Hales, and Elder Richard G. Scott. They have such a spirit about them. Afterwards the Mormon Tabernacle Choir sang a tribute concert for the Air Force. They always give me the chills when they sing.

The Air Show

Josh and I had the opportunity to help with the Air Sow last weekend. We sold gear from the squadron . It was so much fun to be right in the middle of everything. Although I have to admit that by Sunday I was ready to be done. The Thunderbirds put on an amazing show this year, and I was so excited my family came to watch. The weather was great on Saturday, a little rainy and cold on Sunday. Whats up with the weather this week? I feel like we live in Seattle or something.

Mother's Day

So Mother's Day is always a little harder for me. I managed to make it through Sunday with only a few tears. Saturday we had a huge birthday party for my dad. It was really fun to get together with only the adults. My dad's wife made chinese food which was sooooo delicious. Afterward all of us went down to my mom' s grave and gave her some flowers and talked about how wonderful she is. Sunday Josh and I had his family over for dinner. We grilled and played games. It was really nice to have all of them over, and for once Josh's mom got to rest and didn't have to worry about cooking.
I just wanted to say how thankful I am for my mother and all she taught me throughout the years. You never realize how important someone is to you until they are gone. I wish everyday I could tell her how wonderful she is, but all I can do is cherish the memories and try to be like her with my children.

Easter Celebration

Today was our annual easter egg hunt at my dad's house. Its always fun to get together with family especially on the holidays. Easter egg hunts are fun around my family because most of the eggs are filled with money. The kids love it, because two dollars feels like a million dollars to them. The sad part about today was Josh is still in Lousiana and it's always hard to celebrate holidays without your spouse.

Two Years

Josh and I celebrated our 2 year anniversary on April 6th. Josh is in Lousiana for a couple weeks with work so I flew out there for a week so we could be together. It was so nice to be together on our anniversary even if it was spent in Shreveport, Lousiana. We managed to find an awesome steakhouse for dinner. I can't believe we have been married for 2 years. I love being married and I feel so blessed to have found such a wonderful man.
