This is Us

I thought our readers might enjoy some everyday pics of our life in Spotsy. Even though we are trying to eat healthy, we love to eat, especially when someone else cooks. From hot dogs to Japanese, we'll eat it all (as long as it doesn't contain cheese or celery)!

Between work (unfortunately I don't have pics of Matt's secret workspace) and our ongoing website project, we get to hang out with Caitlin, rarely Houston, K, J, A & now Cole!

At the end of the day our sweet pup is always ready to cuddle :)

Periferal Installed

Happy Father's Day! Here you can see my dad sporting his gift, an all terrain tripod!

Mail Day!

Our mailbox is normally full of crappy coupons and credit card offers, but today that was not the case! Laura managed to find some spare minutes between fish class and survival suit study to mail us the sweet message seen above. I am very excited about our Heifer International donations. I'm waiting till Matt gets home to open the tokens, but I am wondering what the last line of the note used to say! I also finally earned a 10% off day at Target, the proof arrived today and I'll be using it before sundown. Finally, we made a small WWF donation last month, so we received a free Blue Footed Booby stuffed animal. Doc is already making it "live hard" as my dad would say.

UPDATE [7:30pm]: Matt and I are tickled about our mints and magnet from Laura!

Doc's Do

This is my favorite image for today. I have finally gone part-time at work, which frees up my afternoons for jewelry box construction, freelance design, and chores! Today's chore was taking Doc to the groomer.

Happy Bday Matty!

We celebrated Matt's Birthday with a cupcake tower, UNO takeout and a few gifts. He had to go to work for a little while today, but didn't mind the trip in his new ride :)

7.9 lbs of Cole

Cole Alexander has arrived! Keara called around 11:30am to make sure we were available to watch Anden, and a few hours later Cole was born! Anden spent the day flying with Matt, watching Blue's Clues and making a "Welcome home Cole" banner with me. Now he is resting up for his big brother duties with Doc guarding his door. Keara, Joe and Cole are spending the night at the hospital, everyone is doing well :)

UPDATE [4 June]: Cole is home and happy!

Hallie & Joshua Head

Matt & I flew home to Clarksville a few weeks ago for Hallie's wedding! It was my first experience as a bridesmaid, but Hallie's momma made sure we'll all knew what to do :) We all enjoyed the bridesmaid's luncheon in Springfield, including Abby, Camilla's daughter/flower girl. Meanwhile, Josh spent the afternoon setting up at Emerald Hill. After Kayla and I ran around collecting bows, sparklers, and wedding cameras, my feet were happy to find these Dollar Tree comfy flops. Even after a minor dress issue (thank you Kayla and Jes) we made it to the rehearsal on time.

Isn't she beautiful!?! We zipped her up, and she was down the aisle. Hallie & Josh said their "I Do's" and celebrated with an outdoor reception. I even managed to see some family and old friends in all the wedding frenzy :)
