California dreaming...

Life is good! Seth and I landed in Anaheim California this morning! We spent the day seeing the sights and enjoying the beautiful weather. Tomorrow it is Disney Land! Unfortunately, no rollercoasters for me but I'm sure I'll be able to enjoy the good food. I was hoping to upload some pictures but I can't figure out how to do it from my iPhone... If you have any tips, lemme know!

A Couple Months, LOTS of Changes!

Today, I am home sick from school so I can finally update our blog... I'm not even sure where to begin.

We celebrated Christmas in Huntsville with my mom, sister and Brian. It was great. We needed the R&R that only moms can give. We came back and hosted a New Year's party... We expected about 10 people and ended up with about 35... yikes! It was fun even though Seth's "grand finale" fireworks did not go off. He was not very pleased but several beers later, all was forgotten.

January was an exciting month... Seth and I found out that we were going to be parents! No, not of another puppy... but of a baby! We are thrilled. We've listen to the hearthbeat and seen the sweet little peanut's image and we couldn't be more excited. It is still early, however, and we continue to pray for the baby's well-being. Next appointment is the last week in February... updates will follow.

February has been jam-packed with events for us. During the first week of the month, Seth was asked to serve as a soybean expert and speak to a panel of cotton farmers in Autauga County (Montgomery, AL). A couple days later, he traveled to Birmingham and was selected to serve on the Wheat and Feed Grain Board for AL Farmer's Assoc. On February 6, we proudly attended and assissted in the Christening of our Godson, Luke Huerkamp! He was an angel, as always. Afterwards there was a beautiful reception.

This past weekend, we traveled to Huntsville for Mike's (seth's uncle/our neighbor) inauguration as President of the Alabama Cattlemen's Association. It was a lot of fun...most of the Dee's came in town, dinner at Ruth's Chris, a wknd stay at Embassy Suite's, Cowboy's Ball, and the best part: a mini shopping spree with my mom!!!

Now, I am home in bed with a sore throat and stuff nose. I guess there's been too much excitement! Back to work tomorrow though... In 2 weeks we will be in sunny/warm Anaheim California!
