and.....

The results are in, and we're having a......

And we're so HAPPY!

busy busy busy

....i'm still here, busy, but here. We just returned this morning from our latest trip to NYC and Connecticut to visit our ever so adorable new niece Adalynn (in which i'm missing now). We had a great time and are happy to be home, for 5 days...then were off to San Diego for the week with my family. And then, i've vowed to not take another trip for the rest of the year because i am truly SPENT. most likely it won't really happen, but my home needs some seriouse TLC and my bed is desperetly calling my name, so hopefully we can stay put for a while (plus our poor church callings have been seriously neglected, i really do feel bad about that). I have been an awful photographer on all our latest adventures, i might be able to round a few up here and there. I am just so grateful that i've been able to travel around with Chase this winter, so much better than being apart.
....as far as my pregnancy goes....i seriously could not be feeling better. i feel great and we are just so excited to find out what were having (in 2 weeks)! its still a crazy crazy feeling to think i'm about to be a parent, but i couldn't be happier....

i almost forgot...

I almost forgot to post my FAVORITE picture from mexico.....

yep...its true.

i'm about 16 weeks, and we couldn't be happier!

mexico 2009-2010

Wow, apologies for it taking me practically two months to post about our mexico trip. here is proof that we really did go, and we really did have a wonderful time. It was so nice to be able to relax and have nothing on our agenda. i should describe all our pics, but i won't bore you with that. just know that we had a great time, and feel so blessed and lucky to have such awesome in-laws who have such an awesome beach house they take us to each year. its seriously pretty awesome. until next year....

i'm alive

hey there,
wow, i've been missing for a long long time. apologies. lots has been going on. we returned from our fabulous vacation in mexico (post will come soon) and we had two days at home before we headed off for california for a sportsmans show for chase's work...we were there for a week, got home on 25th, had a few days at home, then i went to my parents for a few days to watch my lil sis play ball, got home and left again on tuesday for Pennsylvania....we drove....it was long. i've crossed through 10 states in 2 1/2 days, but we're hear for 10 days so hopefully i can find some time to do some major updates to my sad blog. but i am alive and happy.

for really great news, my sis in law lauren just had her baby tonight.....22 in. 10 lb. 15 oz. angel....i think chase and i might drive to connecticut to see that sweet thing tomorrow, i'm so excited and happy for her and royce!

until then....have a good one.

...adios....

we're takin off to relax on the beach for the next three weeks....no school and no work, can't think of how it could possibly get any better than that. later

This past weekend, one of my best friends from college got married (wish i had a pic of her, cause she looked beautiful) anyways, she asked me to make her cake, (so with the help of Lis, of course, and my friend sammy too) this is how it turned out.... I love the way it all came together!!!
