We are going from 3 to 4!

Yep, that's right we are having another baby. We are excited, anxious and wondering how God is going to work. We know He will but wondering what it will look like.

I am not that far along. I can't even go to the doctor yet. I have to wait 2 more weeks. Our families are very excited and are wondering what the gender will be. Adam and I can't decide but know either one will be great.

I tried










Here are some vacation pics. I had a whole page done and then it never got posted? Anyways,we are trying to find stuff to do now that it is so stinkin hot.

The weather got chilly at night. We would go to the beach while dinner was being prepared. Elizabeth would get antsy inside. We had bubbles and they made the beach that much more fun!

The whole purpose for 14 people spending a week together was to honor my grandmother and her 80 years on Earth. My mom's idea was to do a scrapbook for her. MY sister and I spent some time and did it. Before she even saw more than one picture she was in tears. My mom told me this week, that before she goes to bed every night, she looks at the scrapbook. She also is still thinking about it and remembering how much fun she had.

I had a lot of fun but I am pretty sure I don't sit and reminisce like that. We should. So many opportunties with family that fly by and are forgotten. We are just looking forward to the next time when really we should remember the last time. I learned another great lesson while on this trip from my grandmother. This generation is always on the move. Always planning, always doing. I can't remember the last weekend, we did nothing. (actually we did really well this past weekend and I loved it!) For some reason I get all nervous when there is free time. Maybe it is the teacher in me. I knew down time, meant get into trouble time.


I have been going to the beach for as long as I can remember. I remember always loving it. My husband asked me what my hobby was? This was during a discussion of golf. I could not answer him at the time. I then later ( months later) stepped onto a beach, stuck my feet in the water and held back my tears, knowing this is me. The beach is my hobby, my peace, my place to return.

I was told I needed to update!

Hey all!

We have been busy! We moved the from the 27 of June until the 30th and then left for vacation on the 4th. All has been great. Our new place has a backyard and an upstairs. Totally cool. In the apartment I had to work quietly while my little one slept. Now I can be farely loud. We were able to paint and have flowers. Things are almost in place.

Vacation was wonderful> (pics will follow once I find my camera). The vacation was much needed but was for my Grandmother's 80th birthday. It was great everyone on that side was there for the better part of a week. It totaled 14 people in one beach house. We extremely close to the beach as well as the main drag. Elizabeth did not like the ocean as much as I wanted her to. She called it a "yucky pool." I loved it. The waves on our last day were bigger than I ever remember. My sis and I both had to get out because we were so out of breath. We have been going to this beach since I was Elizabeth's age. It was great. Elizabeth is screaming her heart out to let her out of her room. Gotta run!
