Exciting News!!


A new pair of feet are headed our way in October!  We are so excited!  Michelle's been more sick this time, than when she was pregnant with Will, but hopefully it will be ending soon.  We can't wait to see Will with his new brother or sister.  He loves being around babies and he'll be a big help to us.  We're excited to find out if we're having a boy or girl, either one will be great.   Hope everyone is doing well!

Happy Birthday to Us!

Will and I celebrated our birthday over the weekend (Friday to be exact).  It's been 2 years now that Will decided to appear at 12:08 am on Feb. 20th, which just happened to be my birthday.  It's so much fun having the same birthday.  Jody always tries to make a big deal out of the day.   Will and I woke up to the streamers, sign, and balloons that morning.  It brought smiles to both of our faces.

My family was able to come over that night to celebrate with us.  Though Grandma and Grandpa Lane couldn't be there, we were able to talk to them on the phone.

Will loved eating the cup cakes.  In the above picture the cupcakes are in the shape of a 2 and a 5.  The 2 for Will and the 25 for me (yes, I am a 1/4 of a century old now, it's been a rough one! :-)


Will was excited to find money in some of his birthday cards.  He wanted to put it in his piggy right away.  

Jody and I gave Will a golf club set.  He has loved playing with it!!!  He definitely takes  after his dad,  grandpas,  and uncles.  Below is my dad showing Will how to hold the golf club.


It's hard to believe that Will is already 2!  Time sure does fly.  We are so grateful to have Will in our family.  He brings so much joy to us.

A Visit From Family

Jody's parents and sister and her little girl (we missed having you come Jon!) came to visit the second week in January.  We had a wonderful time having them come.  We went to a dinosaur musuem at Thanksgiving Point while they were here.  It was a lot of fun.   Below is a picture of Will with Grandpa Jack smashing a penny.


There is a place in the musuem where you can dig through sand and play in water.  Will had a good time doing both!

This is Will and his cousin Annie playing in the sand.

In the gift shop my sister-in-law and I found oysters you can open up and dig through to find pearls.  We each bought one and had a good (although smelly) time looking for pearls.


We loved having everyone here and hope to see everyone again soon!

Wedding Pics

Here's a couple pictures from the wedding.  On Mary's side she has 19 nieces and nephews all under the age of 6!  It was quite the time trying to get them all to stay and smile for the picture!  Andrew and Mary are loving being married!

New Year......Time for a new look!

I found this awesome site.  They have really fun and cute backgrounds you can put on your blog.  After looking I decided it was time to change our blog's background.   Here's the address if you want to take a peek at the backgrounds.  http://www.simplychicblogs.blogspot.com/

Busy, Busy, Busy

It's been awhile, but we've been busy.  We've had Christmas, two birthday parties, New Year's, a wedding, and a visit from Grandma and Grandpa Lane, and Aunt Stephanie and Annie all within two and half weeks.  Will post pictures soon.  Hope everyone is having a great new year!!!!
