Under Construction

Well, so far, this is how far I've come in updating my blog template for Christmas. This is a lot harder than it looks, and so for now my blog looks a little strange!

Fun on the Beach!

We went on a trip to Puerto Rico recently! We had an amazing time chilling on the beach.
The huge delay in posting is due to the fact that the internet in our new house is extremely slow!

This is me on my very first plane ride!
We slept at the airport during our layover.













This is the resort where we stayed

Our fantastic room

This was one of the resort pools

We ate dinner with a group at a Japanese place

Justin just can't resist joining in the picture!











Justin finally cracked open his coconut!
We went snorkeling on the island. It was
amazing! I even got stung by a jellyfish!













Justin and I after his awards ceremony















All in all, the trip was amazing. The water was beautiful, and the weather was perfect. It was a much needed break after all that moving, and it was our last big trip before Sophie arrives.

Labor Day Weekend

Our labor day weekend was fantastic!
We spent friday with my family at Peach Days in Hurricane. Justin even got to talk to an old time black smith, so he enjoyed the occasion!
Monday we spent with Justin's family having a wonderful BBQ and water fight!
I didn't get too involved in the water fight after I saw all the guys were completely drenched!

The big water fight!


Justin was soaked, so he had some towels to help him dry.
(Mostly, I just think he likes to dress up.)


Us together
(Notice my pregnant belly is certainly growing)

Moving Is...

Hard to Do!!!






This is what life is like for us now....Chaotic! While we are thrilled to move into our new house, it is a lot of work. Not only do we have to sign a million papers, but we now are packing our entire existence. We are grateful that we do have family that have volunteered to help in the actual moving process which will take place very soon.



Don't worry, this box is light!
