I'm still working on getting over the shock that I am actually expecting a child!!! While Mitch is busy figuring out how to make room for it in our house. I guess I should say "him" because IT is a boy. Part of Mitch's job has been fixing the small leak in our basement so we can move the computer room down there to make a nursery upstairs. This has proven to be a bigger task than we realized. Mitch has spent endless hours digging holes to figure out where the water is coming from and how to stop it. We think at this point that our neighbors are excessive lawn water-ers and the position of our home draws all of the water into it. Mitch and his dad have done so much work to create trenches to block this problem. We owe Dave dinner at least for how hard Mitch has been working him. This is the before picture and I think the after photo will follow the arrival of the baby. I don't know how I got so lucky to have such a hard working husband and a very supportive family!

We live in such a cool place! How many people can say that they live 5 minutes away from Walmart and have cows in their back yard. In our case we can literally say that we had cows in our very back yard. After mowing the lawn one night we decided to visit HD (Home Depot) to get some bee spray. When we returned 15 minutes later our fence was a mess and we had huge hoof prints in our lawn. The stubborn cow couldn't resist the fresh cut grass that we dumped in our garden and helped himself on through! It adds some excitement to life knowing that livestock could be roaming around our house at any time. The view is awesome and I like seeing the new baby cows the morning after they are born. They are so cute!

What a surprise!

You may be shocked to learn that it was actually Mitch that got us signed up for this blog thing. He has more spare time than I do, so he's been reading some of our friends and next thing you know, we have an empty blog. Another shocker is that it's ME who gets to write the posts and keep it somewhat updated!

I hope we aren't too lame and leave you vowing to never return to our blog again! We love all of our friends and family and thank you for the support that you always give us.
