May has come and gone...here's what we've done!

HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY!!!

We started this month off with a trip to JAL Okuma Private Resort with Jason's battery! Normally, we get to go for 3 days, but this time was just an overnighter. It was a great time as a family and we got some beach time in as well.

Throughout the month, we have been enjoying the beautiful outdoors (in between the days on end of rain). We have lots of night of grilling and eating outside as well as football games with all the neighbor kids.

Also, this month, Paige finished her first year of Cubbies and got her first book award. The awards banquet was very quaint and simple, but Paige was very excited!

This past weekend, we experienced our first direct-hit typhoon! It was quite the storm and we are so thankful everything fared here. There was lots of damage on the base and I have only seen small parts off, but the island was very lucky! We are now officially in typhoon season til November. We are really looking forward to summer and in a few months the arrival of Tucker!

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!
