Here's a First look at Our New Arrival!

It is my pleasure to introduce all of you to our newest little boy, Blake. He's scheduled to arrive in April! We've waited a LONG time for this little guy, so needless to say.. we are very excited! He is already sucking his thumb like his big Brother!... Uh oh! :D Mason has been very clear too that he is willing to share his toys with Blake....BUT NOT HIS BLANKY! HA! HA! That's very reasonable, I think!!!!

We are having a hard time thinking of middle names though.... sooo any suggestions would be awesome! :D

Halloween was soo fun this year! Mason was a Scary Spider and Ben and I went as a couple of Nerds!... I know not a big stretch for us! But we were proud of our home made costumes! Yeah for Fall!

Thinking of Summer keeps me WARM!

I know it's a little late in the game for a Summer Recap! But....HEY- It's how I roll! :D I hope you enjoy the slideshow of our goings-ons! COME BACK SOON SUMMER!!!!

This Summer, we went on the funnest trip down to San Diego! We met my Sister, Trysh and her family down there, too! It was sooo awesome to see them again! Mason and his cousin Anissa were INSEPERABLE buddies the entire trip! We had a BLAST and made sooo many GREAT memories! Mason got to ride in his 1st airplane and see the cockpit, as well as- meet the pilot! He dug that with a BIG 'ol shovel! We played at the beaches, hit the San Diego Zoo...and, of course- saw SHAMU! I think I was as amazed as Mason at all the sites to see! Ben and I took a stab at parasailing! It was actually more calming than an adrenaline rush- like I thought it would be! The boat Captain slowed down so we could sink and dip our toes in the ocean.... That was more of a trip 'cause all I could think about was, "...what if JAWS jumped right out just now and swallowed us whole!" :D I'm such a nerd- I KNOW! We had so much fun on our first REAL family vacation! Thanks again, Trysh, for the invite! We will NEVER forget it! (.... or the SUN BURNS! next time we all get MORE sunscreen! HA! HA! :D)
