Life is Good

Well...there is not much to update. Our little family is enjoying spring, although it has been raining for the past few days. Everything gets more green by the day, it is beautiful! 


After much thought and prayer we decided not to buy a townhouse, rather save for a down payment on a house in which ever part of the country the wind blows us next (hopefully closer to "home"). Yes, I am totally sick of renting but I am glad we did not end up buying...for a number of reasons!
Shawn has been taking fly fishing classes, which he is loving! It's really cute to see him get excited and light up when he talks about his new hobby. He can't wait to try out all his new fi$hing gear! As for me...I'm living the dream of being a stay-at-home mom. I'm anxiously awaiting my two week trip to Idaho and California at the end of this month! Victoria is almost 8 months now. Shawn and I can't get enough of her hugs and kisses, laughs, and sassy little attitude! Have you ever had those moments where your heart is full, where the word happiness just doesn't seem to capture the fullness of the way you're feeling?...where you're grateful to be living the life that you live and with the people that are living it with you..? Yeah, that's it, that's the way I am feeling, except it's more than just a moment.



























We celebrated an early Cinco De Mayo with great Mexican food, fried ice cream (YUM), games and friends! Definitely a good time! We are all a bit off in our family picture, taken at the cinco de mayo party, but that's just us!
Here are us girls: Me, Victoria, Sommer, Caitlin, Marly, Megan, Dawn, and Megan's little sis!
