From This State To That One


Last weekend we made our big haul from Kentucky to Washington State.. But before we left we got to experience one good storming in KY :)
We passed through a ton of states, but due to my lovely nausea I didn't get to take as many pictures as I had hoped I would. We drove through St. Louis, Missouri and stopped to see the St. Louis Gateway Arch.
In South Dakota there were tons and tons of sunflower fields, so Chris made me trespass for him to take a picture of me IN the sunflowers... Then I got one of him :)
We also saw the great Mount Rushmore in South Dakota.
The last day was mainly in Montana where I got to put my feet in a creek near the road.

It was a long drive, but I did enjoy getting to experience it with Christopher. We are both SO glad to be in Washington.. and to be going home soon!

Life's Twists and Turns


There has been so much excitement in the last month, and it's not going to slow down! Chris and I both have our rings, and I LOVE mine. He was so sweet helping me pick it out and we are both so excited.

Our little peanut will be here in early April of 2012. At our last ultrasound we didn't get to HEAR the heartbeat, but we saw the little flutter on the screen and it was AMAZING. Chris and I have been reading all the books and downloading all the apps on our phones. It is so cute seeing him so interested and involved. I feel so, so blessed to have him and a sweet little baby coming.

We are currently in Lexington, Kentucky. But Saturday we will be making a long drive to Washington! We both love Washington. Chris served his mission there and hasn't been back in a few years so he is pretty excited to be there for a while. We will be there for a total of 5 weeks, and then we will head home to Arizona.. Stopping to see my sister and her family in Idaho first! : ) I'm so happy and so excited for everything that is in store for us. YAY!
