It was so nice to have such good quality family time this Memorial Day weekend. Jason wound up having to work on Saturday, so that didn't leave us alot of time to do what we wanted - which was camping. We had a BBQ and got my truck fixed and played cards with friends while the kids played outside! Monday we visited Jason's parents and decided to take a drive to Flagstaff for lunch at Bun Huggers! :) It's a family favorite! What a great day it was! Gorgeous weather. Food. Family. On our way to Flagstaff

Well, May is here and it's spring! This past week we watched our trees begin to bloom and birds play all around our house! It's been wonderful to see God's beautiful creation and it's so refreshing. We have even planted a community garden with several neighbors and things have actually started growing already!! It's so fun! This month will be bridal showers and baby births! We are so grateful for all of God's wonderful provisions in the last months! He has been SO good! Paige is growing up so fast and is such a little girl now. She is outgrowing all of her baby traits! It's fun and sad at the same time! We are coming to terms with the fact that she will be 2 in August! She is so much fun and keeps us laughing! She finds new things to mimic from us-like the phone. Apparently I say "ya" alot! :) She is such a joy and a gift! We are so thankful for each and every day with her!
As for #2, it hasn't happened yet, but we are still working on it!:) I have done 3 fertility treatments, now, and we just wait! It's hard to do and sometimes gets very frustrating-especially when we have friends that get pregnant so easily, but we have totally put it in God's hands and know that He is in control! It has really given us a peace.
As May begins, we look forward to another prosperous month!

Well, it's 2009! Where has the time gone? We are looking forward to a great year!
Paige, 17 months now, is the joy of our lives! She is so much fun and everyday makes us smile and laugh. She is growing up so much and talking more and more! It's getting colder now, so we have to play inside alot. Her sandbox sits empty for the winter. Soon enough, it will be spring and we will be out and about! We are planning on planting a garden - she will love being in the dirt. It will be a great outdoor activity!
Jason is still traveling back and forth to Phoenix, which is a long drive for him, but he and I are so thankful that he has a good job! He is currently involved in our church's Men's Fraternity and is the director of our AWANA's TREK (junior high) group (as am I). We are also involved in a young families group as well.
I am still staying at home and enjoying the precious time I have with Paige. I also babysit my friend's little boy as well. They are great friends already! :)
We are planning for more children, and are sure it will happen in God's time! We are so thankful for all of His provisions in our lives! HAPPY 2009!
