JP's birthday

Josh turned 29 on April 5th and we both took the day off so I could treat him to a day of fun!! We woke up and went to Cracker Barrel (yup that is right) for a deliciously huge breakfast. Then we went out around town and spent time together then off to Hooters for lunch (again, yes it is true). Then we headed to a fun filled competition of bowling at RedPin downtown. I never really consider myself a competitive person but I believe I proved myself wrong. Josh beat me all 3 games and I was not super happy about it (lets just say I let him beat me since it was his birthday??) Later, we grilled him the steaks my parents got him while some friends came over and we just relaxed at the house. Anyway, I hope he had fun because I really enjoyed having a whole day to spend together.

Me, comparing myself to the bowling ball...at this point I am not quite there but I am quickly getting to that point! I love you babe!!

A family filled Easter Sunday

Last year during Easter Josh and & were in Kansas City. We had so much fun last year but it was so extremely nice to spend this Easter with all of our family!!

Stephen (Josh's brother) and his daughter Tasha at her first Easter.

Tasha was all dressed up for Easter looking so beautiful!!
Josh getting in some practice and bonding with our niece... he is going to be such a great dad!!

A splash of color

Josh and I were feeling motivated and excited so we decided to dive in and begin the painting of Baby Pluid's room. We chose a color called Lettuce Alone which is a yellowish-green color that I am absolutely loving! The room was a crazy dark brown color (yuck) before so the change has been so nice and the room is starting to feel so welcome and bright! I will post more pictures as we continue to transform the room!!

This is the 1st coat of the final color. We also are planning on painting all the wood and trim white.....a project for another day!
Dexter our cat who was very interested in the painting process.
Josh starting on priming the walls so we could have an easier transition from the dark brown to the awesome green!! I really like this pic, his shirt explains exactly how I feel right now with our lives and family =)

Medieval Fair 2010

So Josh, Slim & I all attended our 3rd year at the Norman Medieval Fair. Each year gets a bit more eccentric and fun. Honestly I go for 3 reasons. 1. Giant Corn Dogs & Cherry Limeade. 2. The most wonderful chocolate and maple fudge. 3. People watching!! One of the best parts about it is that everyone brings their dogs so our pups get to have an exciting afternoon as well!

Example of those who wear tails...
A fairy lady that shocked many attendees of the crowd. She would blend in and then all of a sudden you would notice her. It was really pretty cool!
This is definitely NOT the most flattering picture of me but it is the only recent one I have.
