Birthday Balloons!

 

What a wonderful way to spend Susie's Birthday :) We started with a drive to McMinville, OR and enjoyed a wonderful dinner then early the next morning we got up in time to see the sunrise and take a Balloon ride over Oregon's beautiful wine country. The view of the Willamette River was breathtaking and the champagne brunch after the flight was spectacular!
God Bless

It's been a long time....

Hello everyone!
Jonathan and I have been pretty busy the last few weeks! I am looking forward to this coming weekend, we will actually be at home, so maybe I will have time to get the pics of my camera and onto my blog. Anyway, just so ya'll know what we have been up to, here are the basics:


July:
We went to dinseyland again! We got to meet up with friends Kirstin and Michael Burrows, who recently moved to Annaheim, lots of fun there, I did have to take it a little easy on some of the rides as not all Disneyland attractions are safe for expectant mothers.
We also had the Houseboat trip with all the Ferguson's! What a wonderful adventure :) We managed to catch a mess of bass and enjoyed a delicious dinner from them. And we found a beautiful waterfall, and docked nearby to enjoy some swimming and hike to the base of the falls. It was spectacular! We also came loose from our mooring at about 5 am which caused quite a stir as we attempted to safely free ourselves from the 2nd line withour hitting too many rocks! All in all is was fun and relaxing, with a dash of adventure thrown in :)
August:
The Terry Taylor Garage Sale started of the month with a bang. we wnjoyed Grandma Ruth's Hospitality and all made out like bandits, as usual. Gloria managed to nearly fill her new apartment and I (with Jan's help) scored in the maternity wear department.
Then later that week I had my first ultrasound and Jonathan and I were amazed at the sight of "B" wiggling around, and it was pretty cool to hear the heartbeat! Unfortunately they were out of film for the ultrasound so we will have to wait for pictures. Ashley Rowe got married in Salem and we made the trip to celebrate with them. Her twin niece and nephew we all dressed up, Isaiah in a tux and Grace in a lovely dress to celebrate getting a new uncle :)

Well thats what's been happening lately. Levi is still growing, but not at the same pace, I think he is gonna stay pretty close to his current size. Holly is doing good, she finally stopped shedding and looks much cuter now :) Although she did discover that we have a dog, and is not too happy about it.
Hopefully I will have photos up later! I am making some blackberry jam this weekend, Chris Jan, Jonathan and I all went berry picking, and I am excited to enjoy the fruit of our labor!
God Bless!
