Know Your Politics

If you know me well, then the following statements won't surprise you...

I recommend that everyone be active in their local, state and national politics- or at least know the issues and where you stand on them. The national spotlight is on the next President of the US- this election will have a huge impact on the future of this country and you need to be paying attention to the issues.

I had the chance to hear many of the political positions from US Congresswoman, Marsha Blackburn, and speak individually with her at a function in Lakeland, Tenn.

A Birthday Celebration

Becky turned 31 on April 10. We celebrated with a small family gathering.

Snow in March?

Here a winter wonderland picture taken at my parents house in Bartlett.

I love it when it snows- it just puts everyone in a wonderful mood!

3-2-1- Scream!

WE'RE DEBT FREE!
As of today we paid off our Yukon to become totally debt free (except the house)!

Poll Results

If you voted in the poll that we would have a boy, you won!!!!! IT'S A BOY!!!! He didn't want to play the 'show-&-tell' game, though. The tech had to work really hard. But that's ok. I understand how it is to work at your own pace. Some of us don't like to be rushed into things.

We are so excited. We would have been happy either way, but secretly we were hoping for a boy. Now things will begin progressing quickly: names, nursery color, bedding, furniture, etc. It's going to fun!

I can't wait to see him. Wonder if he'll have dark hair? Will it be curly? What color eyes will he have? How tall will he be? Will he be a pretty baby? Will he have big hands & feet? I'm sure the time will fly by (it's hard to believe I'm already half-way through), but after yesterday I'm beginning to get a little anxious.

Our other babies

Here are some pictures of our nieces & nephews.

The baby

I've been intending to add the newest 'picture' of our baby, so thought I'd do that today. This was from my last appointment, Jan. 15. As you can see, it's beginning to look more 'real' (I know this isn't a very clear picture, but hopefully you get the idea). We will find out it's gender on Feb. 19. I'll try to remember to add that exciting news.
