Christmas 2009

Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas, sorry this is a little late but we have been busy at our house. We had a great holiday season and as always it was over too soon. Dad made homemade chocolate pies which were awesome, as all the food was. We had a small program and then opened presents. Reba spent Christmas with us which was nice and then we did Santa the next morning. We draw names and Jason got me and it was so cute because he got the baby a bunch of little hats and socks and onsies. Santa was nice again. I got a really nice blanket for the nursery and a lot of lotions and manicure kit and fat clothes. Todd got new Arnettes, a shop vac, and his favorite gift was a Lakers onsie for the baby and a matching shirt for him for playoff time! Mom and Bri got new Cruisers. Todd had put Bris together and Dad did Moms and we hid them in our basement. They had to come over and get them and ride them home, but once they took off they kept going. Were going to get bikes in the spring so we can all go riding the trails. Part of Todd's Christmas was the Laker / Jazz game. It just so happens that the night before Kobe broke his finger and the next day woke up with the stomach flu so needless to say it wasn't very exciting. But it was fun to be out just the 2 of us and walking to the car after we saw a bunch of drunk Mexican jazz fans knock a cop out in the middle of the street. I love to watch Cops but that was the closest I had been to the action! It was a lot of fun. I wish we had New Year pics but I forgot my camera. We went over to Diane's with all of her family and played games and were very loud! It was a lot of fun. Cant wait for next year!!!

Baby Delaney!

Welcome Delaney Ruth! We are so excited she is here and cant wait for cousin camp next year;

Good job Jac :)

Christmas is here...

Well we put up all the Christmas trees and decorations this week. I love decorating for Christmas. We also did a little bit out front but I cant take pictures until the 2 feet of snow in front of the driveway is gone! Anyway the blue, black, and silver tree is the one we have upstairs. I want you to pay close attention to the bow and streamers...Todd and I made that :) It took a little bit but we figured it out and I love how it looks. The gold, red, and green tree is up downstairs and then we have odds and ends all over the house. Its so much fun this time of year!
Ok, the curtains are a new thing we put in the hearth room and kitchen. We got a killer deal and Todd and Dad put them up, they dress up the upstairs really nicely.
That TV is my black Friday deal :) We wanted another TV upstairs and I didn't want to come home empty handed-ish.
The couch is my Christmas present from Santa (Todd). We had been looking for something upstairs and we really liked this one. It looks very pretty and is comfortable so were happy with it.
And finally some pics of my fat! I apologize for the outfit. I will take cuter ones but when I come home from work I'm almost undressed by the time I get out of the car :) I go straight for sweats! But Ill take more so don't think I look homeless all the time :)
Anyway, life is great, the baby is great, and we are excited for the Holiday Season. More pictures to come!

Our New House!!!

Well we are finally in our new home and we are loving it. It is so nice to be in and call it home. We are almost done moving in so we decided to take some pictures. I will put up some ones of the outside later, but keep in mind we are still a work in progress :) And just in time to have a garage for the first snow! Thanks to everyone that helped us move and unpack...much appreciated! Oh and excuse any tummy pics that might be in the mirrors, its getting harder to hide :)

Softball is over...Dodgeball is next!

Well, we went undefeated in the playoffs (4-0) so they made us play the same team back to back since we didn't have a loss and it was double elimination. We played great and were up in the last game but the last inning was not kind and we ended up losing. If you ask everyone there cheering they didn't care because half of their body was frozen solid. Lets just say the cocoa was like chocolate milk within about 20 minutes. We had a fun season and got a rad shirt out of it :) We are looking forward to next season and to dodge ball next month, don't worry I will have pictures!

Trip to Cali

We got to take a trip to California last month; Unfortunately it was because of the passing of Grandpa Sherratt, but it was still good to spend time with his family. The funeral was very nice and it was full of great memories of a great man. We had the opportunity to look at old pictures and hear some great stories, he will be missed!

RMC Softball Baby!

Todd has started softball again this season and there have been some good games. He is playing on Richards (my cousin-in law) team and the last 2 games have been serious smack downs. This one you can see and the one before was 18 to 1. Unfortunately they lost yesterday but next Tuesday is another game! It is a lot of fun to get everyone out to the ball park and next time I will get some pics of our fans :) Keep up the good work guys!

Our House

We are building a house!!! And we have been documenting it so here are the pics we have so far. It is coming along and will be so nice when it is finished. Were thinking 4 or 5 more weeks but you never know when you build. So I will keep putting up pictures as we get closer to the end :)

Ok, Ok Here ya go...

Sorry for the lag. I decided since I was pregnant and working full time it was a good idea to go back to school :) So I have been neglecting this Blog but I will be better. So these are pictures of our last fishing trip in Cedar. It was windy and a little chilly but a good time. Todd caught a 3 1/2 pounder and I caught a couple so it was fun and always good to see the California crew!

Good News

If you look to the right you will see a tiny us :) We are happy to say we are expecting our first baby. After 2 1/2 years of happily trying we have hit gold! We want to thank everyone who supported and prayed for us. We have no doubt it made the difference. We are excited to add to our family and will keep everyone posted and add pictures as we get them. We cant wait!!!
