Just a sample

Ang Beck took the photos at the wedding. As you can see, she did an incredible job. She comes very highly recommended.

Another Baby

CONGRATULATIONS to Corby and Richard on their hugh annoucement.

We are so happy for you both. October will be here before you know it

Wedding Thanks

Now that the big day has come and gone, I have had time to stop and reflect on the whole thing.

I have realized once again, that I am truly one of the luckiest people in the world. I have the best family and friends.

The wedding and reception was a hugh success due to the incredible people that I have in my life.
Dianne, Gwenna, Collette, Melanie, Karley, Tiffini, Ellen you are without a doubt, the best. I want you all to know, that I love you all very much. Sara, Jan, Susyn, Taison, Loni, Debbie, Ed, Carmin, Don (do you need more cake?), Breanna you all worked so hard, I wish words could express my appreciation as thank you just doesn't seem enough.
Kaylee, Evan, Kiersten, Chesney, and Jaycie, you all did so well. Grandma loves you very much.
Laine and Braydon thanks for helping with the presents, even when you would have much rather been outside playing. I love you.
Corby and Angie for cleaning up my messes. You are awesome.
Saundra, Cristi, Carri, Nick, and Jordan, and of course, none of this would be possible without Lindsey and Schuyler, I love you all so much and am so proud of each one of you.
I am sure that I am missing so many people that just stepped up and took care all the little things that needed to be done. Thank you! Thank you ! Thank you!

Okay enough of the mushy stuff. As soon as pictures come back, I will post some, but trust me. It was FABULOUS!!!

Bandit vs Sydney

So now that Nick and I have decided on a name for our little one that is still happily growing in my tummy, things seem to have taken a more real turn. I guess its about time seeing as how I only have 11 weeks to go right? Nick and I were talking about baby stuff the other day and he starts talking about me needing to get my hospital bag together. A bit early my dear. But I figure him stressing over little things is a good thing because it means he has fimally grasped the idea he is going to be a daddy. Is it still scary to think we are going to be parents? You bet your boots it is! But we are warming to the idea.

This morning I laid down after Nick left for work to try and squeeze in just 30 more minutes of sleep. So I climb back into bed and Bandit hops up and lays down next to me. He decides the big bump on my tummy looks like a good place to rest his head. I didn't mind because it was not uncomfortable. After about 10 minutes, Sydney started feeling the rice krispies or something because she started moving and kicking like crazy. Bandit must have felt it because he lifts up his head and is looking at my tummy like "Do you mind?! The puzzled look on his face was sooo funny. He decided he wasn't going to take any more so he got down to lay on his own bed where he wouldn't have something kicking him in the chin. Silly silly puppy.

We have a name

Carri and Nick have decided on a name for the baby....


She will be offically known as


Sydney Jocelyn Shore.

I think it is a wonderful name.
But I realize I am a little prejudice. :)
