Is anybody there???

Is anybody alive? I would love to hear from you guys! Post pictures galore! We all have not been around eachother a lot in the past few years so post wedding photos, kid photos, silly photos, whatever! I hope you are all doing good! Love ya, Melissa

We got a new dog!! He is a Shih tzo! His name is bandit and he is the cutest thing!!!! We have had so much fun with him! Donald is just ecstatic because he loves dogs! He really wants a lab but not until we move! But this dog is so dang cute!

This weekend we had Youth Conference with just our ward and we went to the lake and then had a bar-b-q after. It was sooo much fun! That is me with some of my YW!! WE had so much fun and the lake felt so nice! IF you didn't know I was called to be the 2nd counselor in the YW's! I love this calling! We have great girls that love the gospel and are so fun to be around! And the other leaders are awesome too! I have no complaints!

Well I hope you all start posting soon! Love you, Melissa

Okay, Melissa, I don't know if I'm doing this right by starting a whole new post.......but, I am anyway. So guess what guys??????? I went in for my 20 week routine appointment and came out knowing the gender of the baby. The appt with the tech to find out the gender and how the baby is doing developmentally, isn't until August 22nd. But while in our appt today, the doctor was being really friendly and funny and pretended like he couldn't hear the heartbeat on the doppler. So he said, "I guess we better do an ultra sound to make sure everything is okay!!" (wink wink) So he did an ultra sound and we are having a GIRL!! I couldn't believe it!! He said, "now make sure you don't tell anyone I did this...especially the tech when you go in to your appt in a few weeks. I don't want to get in any trouble!" ANyway, he was being really great about everything and sent us on our way. Good day, eh? We FINALLY found out what we are having. YAY!!! Now we can make more plans.

Anyway, I guess that answers your question Christy. And I can't believe you are due in 5 weeks. That is sooo soon. Are you getting big and swollen?? I can't wait!!

And Melissa, Yes, I am quitting and playing mom-to-be at home. I need time to get ready for that. I hear it's a tough job so I need plenty of practice. No, not really. I am going to substitute teach all fall and keep saving money. I hope I am busy.

Anyway, where are Rob, Katie, and Bob-o??!?!! THey better hurry and check this thing out!

Great idea Melissa!! I hope everyone checks this and we can keep each other posted on everything. How is everyone? Anything new going on? I am quitting my job at Melaleuca in 2 weeks and am pumped about it. I hate working there. Well, I really just can't stand my supervisor. Anyway, quitting my job is about the most exciting thing going on!! Hope to hear from everyone soon!!

Here are a couple pictures I had at work of us! I sure love you girls and hope that you will post soon! Melissa

Okay, So I started a blog just for us!! This is so we can all post pictures and write to eachother to keep up with life. I love you girls and miss you. Hope to hear from you soon!
