Yes, I'm One of "Those" Bloggers!

So... I haven't posted anything since (yup!) April 15th. I'm not good at sticking with things, so I blame it on my flighty, sanguine self. Or I could be totally honest and say I've been lazy. At least I have a bit of an excuse. We are --


EXPECTING! If you are a friend reading this you've been in-the-know for about a month now. But, it's always fun to announce it! We're due February 8th, which means this baby will probably end up sharing his/her (we're finding out the gender September 21st, but no name reveal until the baby arrives) birthday with a great number of relatives. On the top of the list is his/her daddy. Joey's birthday is February 3rd. That would be pretty neat, wouldn't it?

Other happenings... My best friend got married in Michigan, so we went to the wedding on our way to Minnesota. I had the pleasure of being her matron-of-honor. The wedding was so beautiful from the moment she walked up the isle to the last song at the reception. Needless to say she was absolutely glowing. Here is a picture of her lovely self and all her ladies.



In Minnesota Julian had some incredible experiences. First off we visited our family friends' farm. He saw cattle, sheep, pigs, a horse, donkeys, chickens, and rabbits. The highlight for Julian, however, was all the "boo-boo" he saw ("boo-boo" is his term for any and all vehicles). The bigger the more fantastic, of course. He sat with daddy inside a mac truck which sent him over the edge of delight. I'll have pictures up as soon as I organize them all. There are lots & lots!

This post must be a "to be continued" piece as I want to put something up now and if I take my time with it I will be delaying it even longer. So I will touch on the rest of our vacation and plenty of pictures in the very near future. Until then, here's a picture to keep you in suspense.
