Fall to Winter Update

Welcome to my first blog post of the new year. I have not been the best at taking pictures, and being married to a photographer has not helped me in having more on hand as he is not the type to always carry a camera around. So here are some of what I got. I hope you enjoy.

Story time with Tucker is always a favorite, he totally captivates the kids. Then they want me to tell them a story, and I feel bad cause it is always a bit of a let down for them.
Throwing rocks into Lake Runameed, what could be more fun. Oh and yes, Maddie did dress herself that day. I thought she did quite well.

On our way to Ben and Jerries.
Deb and Josh met up with Tucker and I in VT while Tucker and I were baby sitting Chelle and Brig's kids. We all went to the Ben and Jerrie's Factory for a tour of how to make ice cream, Anders was totally into the machines, and maddie was totally into the ice cream. Deb was in her first trimester of Pregnancy, and she was such a trooper. Now that I am pregnant I am much more simpathetic to how she was feeling when she said things like, "I am really going to need to eat pretty soon."
Tucker and I on a Bike Ride, we bough road bikes this money with credit at REI from the Wedding, and one off Caigslist for Tucker. This was on a 42 mile ride. Oregon is Beautiful!

The bar was a hard thing, and when I got back from VT this was waiting for me from my Beehives. They are some stinking cute girls. I loved it!
The week after our honeymoon we all went out to eat at Nicolas's a Lebonese restaurant then headed down to the river to watch some fireworks. This is some of my family, Nathan and his now wife Caitlyn, Kevin, Me and Tucker, Chris and Kenni in the back and Nic and Hailey.

Alligator in the Everglades. Chelle, I posted this picture mostly for Anders, tell him that the stinking alligator came right up to the boat, like it was going to eat us, but then it started singing "the alligator is my friend, he could be your friend too, if only you could understand that he get's hungry too!" So then our Tour guide gave the alligator some bread, and he ate it up.
Here are the Beesley Boys serenading me and their mom/wife. At Sally's (my mother inlaw) request they sang us all the oldie but goodie Christmas songs.
I am the beehives counselor for Young Womens at Church, this was the morning after their sleep over, I had to drag them out of bed to get them gone cause I still had to go to work that day. But I think the had a lot of fun. Our goal was to read from Helaman to the end of the book of Mormon, we got to 3rd Nephi then made some brownies. We actually did better than I thought we would.
I'm Pregnant, here is me at about 7 weeks. My pants are all getting kinda tight, of course it doesn't help that being a lawyer and not going to the gym added a little to the weight factor before the whole baby thing happened.
