How we told my family
We were trying to think of a fun & special way to tell my family about being pregnant. We didn't want to wait TOO long because they knew we'd been having trouble and we didn't want them worrying longer than was necessary. Since two of my brothers, and my SIL and their girls were all living in California for the summer for work, we decided we'd tell them at Bear Lake on the first evening because we'd be ALL together.My mom always told me that she wanted to know first and that I couldn't tell other people before I told her. So we had to think of a way that was technically telling her first,...
guess what guess what guess what!
Hey you guys!! I have some BIG BIG BIG news!!!!!I'M PREGNANT!Yes! We are expecting our very first baby!We actually found out back on Josh's birthday in July. (Talk about a great 30th birthday present, right!?) We tried for 1 year and 2 months to get pregnant. It was a hard year of waiting, and disappointment. But we just had to have faith that it would happen and FINALLY, IT DID!I'm 16 weeks now, a little over 4 months. (This ultra-sound was from our 12 week appointment). I'm due on March 11th.We find out if we're having a boy or a girl in less than 4 weeks! RIGHT BEFORE I leave for Orlando!...

what fun!
Camping is so much fun. I love to be in the great outdoors. Of course, I like to camp at places where there's a working restroom and a shower, so maybe some of you wouldn't really call it true camping! But we sure had fun this past weekend. Even though the trip was short and sweet, we had a VERY nice time at the Fillmore KOA.I've never camped at a KOA before, but having a pool to lounge at all day was so awesome! I'm all for KOAs now!Plus it was really HOT!! We NEEDED that pool just to keep cool.Favorite moments from our Labor Day Camping Trip:- swimming- campfire chats- dough boys- cooking...
