News and Random Tidbits

Firstly, here is the picture of Brett in his dashing new outfit as promised. (Do you say "outfit" for a guy--it kinda seems like a word you'd only use for a female's attire. ...Suit ....Ensemble? Anyway.) What a handsome guy. I'm sure you all agree.




Anyway, in other news, it is May, and my 7th anniversary is tomorrow. I have nothing planned in the least...so unless I come up with some sensational idea in my sleep, we'll probably just hang out and have FHE much the same as any other Monday. (If you have any sensational ideas, by all means throw 'em out there.)





Oh yeah, before I forget, did you all notice the sweet new header my Talented Sister Kami made for me? It's awesome. So, if any of you are google-readering this, definitely go check it out. I also added a couple quotes.





Exciting things coming up--we're planning a little vacation the last week of May to Washington D.C. We get to do this because the majority of the fuel will be paid for, courtesy of a guy who lives in Pennsylvania who bought a spare engine we had lying around, and will pay for our fuel if we deliver it to him. So, we'll probably stop at Kirtland the first night, then do D.C. for a couple days, then spend a day camping in Shenandoah National Park. That is, if I can drag Jethro and Brett away from the National Air and Space Museum. Once again, I'm open to ideas, this time from anyone who has toured D.C. and has any tips.





Hmmm, what else have I been thinking about lately? Oh. If any of you haven't read 'Little House on the Prairie,' or haven't read it since you were a kid, I recommend you read it again. It's a really good book! We've been reading it to the kids, and both Brett and I had to finish it ahead of time because it's so good. It's much more exciting than 'Little House in the Big Woods,' which we read to them already. Indians, wolves, fires, panthers, malaria, etc. I think I like it now because I think about what if it was Brett and I and our 3 kids out there on the prairie all alone. A different perspective than when I read it when I was little. Also, I've always just really liked pioneer stories.



And here's a picture of my baby belly. It's a bad picture--there is a toothbrush in my mouth (which makes me wonder why I'm even posting it), but nevertheless shows the size of my belly. It's pretty cute how Hazel likes to give the 'brand new teeny tiny baby' kisses sometimes before she goes to bed.


And here's a picture of Ethne with some underwear wrapped around her arms, because Jethro put them there and then told me to take a picture. Weird, but she's cute nonetheless. And with that, good night.
