He's here!

My new nephew decided he didn't want to miss the Easter Bunny this year. He was born at 6 this morning. 9 lb. 8 oz., 22" long. Mom and baby are doing fine.

Welcome to the world, Logan! Can't wait to see you!

Congrats, K & D!

Lots of catching up

It's been a while, so this will be a long post. There have been a ton of things going on around here lately, so I'll try not to forget anything.

A couple of weeks ago, we went up to Charleston to see the Angel Oak. This tree is incredible! It's estimated to be about 1500 years old, and it is MASSIVE! http://www.angeloaktree.org/ Check it out! If you live anywhere nearby, you have to go see it.




Kat's been here this week for Spring Break, so we went out to one of the fishing piers this afternoon to get a few pics. I ended up with more silly ones that anything else.


The Hub was in a particularly piratey mood, so these are some of the pictures I ended up with.


Aren't the "wee bits" growing up so fast?? They're outgrowing ME, so I'm soon to be the "short shit" of the family.

In other news, I got a new baby this week. Meet Smokey. I LOVE HER!

Yes, we now have 5 vehicles, but two are going up for sale. I've been wanting another truck for so long, and we found this deal that we just could NOT pass up.

Aside from that, the biggest news around here is that the girls are headed to their dad's for Spring Break next week. They leave Monday morning, and Breeze will be back on Saturday.

The other big news is that I'm going "under the knife" on Tuesday. Yep, another surgery. I've arrived at my destination on the hysterectomy highway. I'll be out of commission for a while, but I have lots of crafting lined up to do while I'm recouperating. I hope that I won't be out for too long because I have classes to teach at the LSS. People keep telling me that I'm being overly ambitious in thinking I'll be able to get back to that fairly quickly. I'm choosing to be optimistic, but I'm almost certain that they're right.

So anyway, that's a quick summary of life these days. I'll post again when I can.
