We Are Having a baby!!!

Jed and I wanted to have one more baby in a year or so...boy were we surprised when I found out a couple of weeks ago we were having a baby. I suffer from fertility problems and was told by four different doctors that without high doses of fertility medication I could not have a baby. I do not ovulate, so I haven't been using birth control. Apparently, the doctor I spoke to said that every so often, perhaps once every couple years I could ovulate. Who Knew?!! So that must have been what happened. It was a little sooner that I would have planned, but We are still very excited about it. At times I do get nervous, after all I am only one woman with two hands and I'm going to have three children under the age of five. I'm sure I will get the hang of it eventually. The baby is due April 4th. I am going to try to enjoy this pregnancy as much as possible knowing that it will be my last. I don't care whether it is a boy or girl, as long as it's healthy. The girl's are very excited and are already asking a lot of questions. It's crazy to think in just a few short months, our family will be complete!

Lacey's wedding



My little sister got married on August 15th!!! She was married at a little schoolhouse out in the country, by our cousin. It was a beautiful ceremony and a very fun reception. I am so proud of her and Ryan. They both looked so good. Lacey's dress was stunning and Ryan was very handsome. We are all so happy for them and we can't wait to watch their new lives unfold. I hope that they are happy for many years to come. I also hope that they have babies soon! I need some more nieces and nephews!! No pressure you two! I love you both so much and I was privilaged to be a part of your special day!! More photos to come!

Mt. Hood



The last weekend of July we went camping with my parents and some friends from work. It was a real blast! This type of camping is more my style. We went to a camp ground by Mt. Hood. There were these little rustic cabins that were so adorable.I felt like the three little bears. It was a two room cabin with a bedroom and livingroom. There wasn't a kitchen or bathroom, but we love to BBQ anyway. There were a lot of neat bicycle trails, good swimming and a nice playground for the children. We really enjoyed visitng with our friends, laughing and being outdoors. The trip was pretty eventful! There was a rousing game of volleyball put on by a fine group of athletes. A keg provided some very exciting entertainment, if see any pictures of me sucking on the tap, relax they were totally photoshopped. I hope that our great friends will remember to invite us again next year!! Here's to more memories!

Bachlorette weekend




Last month we went to Florence, OR about two hour south from here to celebrate my sister's bachlorette weekend! There were like ten or eleven of us that went, and we had a blast. We played games, shopped, and of course drank. It was a such a fun and relaxing way to help Lacey celebrate leaving her single life behind. On Saturday we went to the lake, the house we were renting was right on the lake and had it's own dock. We all blew up our air mattresses and tied them all together with a rope. We then filled up the cooler and tied it in the center. We floated around all day, jumping off to swim occasionally and drinking. I hadn't had a weekend that fun or relaxing in quite awhile. It was fun to get away from the day to day stuff. It was nice to see my family when we got back though. They actually missed me!!
