Jad's B-day

It's my hubbies B-day today. Thinking back from last year to this year things have changed quite a bit! We had a big year... move to CO, new jobs, pregnancy & we celebrated our 10 year anniversary. God has blessed us with an amazing year and new things to look forward to. It's hard for me to believe Jad & I have known each other 14 years now! I am so blessed to have such a wonderful husband and father to my boys. I love you with all my heart and hope you have an awesome birthday, babe!

February 2009

Here are some photos of a beautiful "wet" snow that fell recently. It stuck to all the trees and made everything so pretty. I am also posting some video of Jad and the boys sledding in Rocky Mountain Ntl Park. It is so funny watching them crash!

32 weeks

Here are some photos of me 32 weeks pregnant. I am feeling huge already...

Christmas 2008

Wow, I can't believe Christmas is gone and it's the middle of January already! We had a fun time with family this Christmas. We didn't get to see everyone as long as we would have liked because we all got sick the week before Christmas. We did get to go to Colorado Springs and spend Christmas Eve & Christmas day with everyone though. Mom & Dad and Sarah & Nate and the kids came up from Dallas to be with us. It was fun having all the cousins together at Christmas! Here are some photos of Cole & Luke with their cousins. We also got to have Nanna & Poppa come stay with us the week of New Year's. We enjoyed taking a trip into Estes Park and RMNP for some sledding and playing in the snow.

Snow!

It's been a while since I updated... sorry, life is hectic. My computer isn't very fast either so it's hard to find time to post things. Anyway, here are some recent pics of the boys enjoying snow. It hasn't snowed much in town yet, but we went into the mountains last weekend to find the snow to play in. It was a lot of fun!

First Days of School 2008

Wow, it has been a while since I have posted anything.... sorry for the long delay. I have been busy getting settled in and adjusting to life in CO! Well, we are finally settled and the boys are now starting school. Luke started last week at a small Lutheran preschool 2 days a week. He absolutely loves it! He asks every day if it is a "school" day. He will be so ready for kindergarten next year! Cole started 1st grade today. His school is very nice and much smaller than his school last year. His teacher seems great and he said he had a fun first day. He said he was nervous, but once he started making some friends he liked it a lot. He even said they had 3 recess times and that was awesome! I know he is going to do great.

Here are some pics of the boys enjoying school. I will try to start updating this site regularly.

Beach vacation 2008

We all had a blast at the beach. We swam, relaxed and enjoyed not having a schedule at all! The only thing kind of annoying was the sea weed that was everywhere in the beach and water... we kept saying, "At least it's not jellyfish!" The boys loved everything about the beach. Their favorite thing was a boogie board that they took turns riding the waves on. Our best friends, Kevin & Leslie, with their kids, Taryn & Dawson, actually planned to go to the beach at the same time. We spent several days with them on the beach and then my parents came for a few days at the end of the week. The boys loved having friends and Nanna & Poppa to play with them! We went crab hunting at night and found lots of crabs. We went out on a fishing pier to see what people were catching. In one of the pictures the boys are touching a baby shark (Luke very reluctantly!) that someone caught. At the end of our trip we went into Corpus to the Aquarium. That was fun for all of us! Over all we had a great vacation and are thankful we had a safe trip. We are now working on getting us packed and moved to Colorado. We will post our adventures in moving once we get the computer hooked up again.
