Updates & Pictures

We have been busy busy since about Halloween. Halloween this year was alot more fun than last year, because Aaron was able to enjoy it more. Last year he was barely 3 weeks old and could care less that he was dressed up like a monkey and just wanted to sleep the whole time....not this time! He wanted to be into everything and did not want anyone trying to hold him or hardly take a picture of him. Here are a few pictures though of the little man as Tigger.

Isn't he cute...don't mind the dog bed

He had to take a break

Are you talking to me?!

He did not want his picture taken

Dad let me go!

My brother is doing great...well we are believing and hoping! My dad was able to get a phone call from him last Thursday (his 19th birthday) but thought that the call might have been recorded. His recruiter called on Friday and talked to my mom Melinda and reassured us that it was actually Matt talking to my dad, but that he was reading from a script, because they had so many recruits that had to make phone calls (this was their first phone call) and plus at that point (4 days into boot camp) so many of them were very homesick and this was best for all. He did manage to tell my dad he loved him and then the phone got hung up. He stated that we should expect a letter from him in 2-3 weeks, but his recruiter was able to give us his address. We have all sent several letters, but I think I win because I have sent probably 10 letters and an envelope of pictures! The first week Matt was gone was really hard, but it has gotten better and is something that we are adjusting to. We are looking forward to going to San Diego in January and can't wait to see my baby brother! Thank you all for your prayers and please keep them coming!

My grandparent's left to go on a cruise on Monday. They left out of Galveston and are going to Cozumel I think. I hope they are having fun, because it has rained everyday since they left! I do miss them and can't wait for them to come home!

My good friend Rhonda took her daughter Summer, along with Rhonda's parent's to Walt Disney World this week. Summer will be 5 on Saturday so this is her birthday present! She is going to have dinner with the princess'! I hope they are having a great time and I can't wait to celebrate Summer's birthday with her when she comes back.

Wedding plans are coming along. We went this week and picked out the tuxes for Brian and the guys. We also had a bridesmaid drop out yesterday, but we will survive. I don't have time to find another bridesmaid, because the dresses have to be ordered by this weekend and I wouldn't do that to someone on short notice. Oh well such is life and we will survive.

Today is a rare day that I have no school or work. I was suppose to have school all day, but our class got cancelled. I am going to get my nails done for my bridal portaits on Sunday and then I have a few errands to run and then I am going to work on some school stuff. Tonight Brian and I are having my mom over for dinner and we're going to watch the country music awards!

Thank you for all the sweet comments from everyone! They really do mean alot! Oh yeah today is also an exciting day, because my best friend Julie is finding out the sex of her baby today! I can't wait to hear what she's having! Love you Julie!
