HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Bright and early tomorrow morning we will be on our way to Colorado to spend Thanksgiving with Tyson's family and hopefully have a white, snowy Thanksgiving!

In the spirit of Thanksgiving, I just wanted to share a few things that I am thankful for this year...Our Family, Our Health, and A Smooth and Healthy Pregnancy!


HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Christmas Cards

Our family Christmas photo was taken November 14, so after that I was able to order our Christmas cards, get the photos inserted into all the cards, sign all the cards, and label, stamp and sticker all the envelopes. I am happy to report that our Christmas cards are done and ready to go out in record time this year. I know its still a bit early, so we will wait patiently until Dec 1 and then send them out. I love getting things done early, such a good feeling.

PS- Tomorrow we are off to Colorado for Thanksgiving and will return in one week.

32 Weeks

Last week, a good friend of ours took some family photos and pregnancy shots. We love how they turned out.

32 Weeks pregnant...here's a sneak peek.





32 Weeks pregnant...only 8 weeks to go!

Happy Birthday Mom!

Today is my Mom's Birthday.

Happy Birthday to You, Happy Birthday to You, Happy Birthday dear Mom...Happy Birthday to You! May all your Birthday wishes come true.

Gift Exchange

This year my family (my Parents & Siblings & their Significant others) have decided to do something we have never done before, a Gift Exchange. We usually buy for everyone in the family, and it ends up getting quite expensive. However, since our family is growing and we are all looking to save a little time and money this year, we decided a gift exchange would be a great idea.

This weekend we drew names for who we will buy a nice gift for, and a different name for who we will stuff a stocking for. We will keep both a secret until Christmas, when it comes time to open presents. And then the big reveal!

I can't wait, I just love giving gifts, don't you?

A Weekend Away

To celebrate our 4th Wedding Anniversary, Tyson and I are heading out to Pala Casino for the weekend. Its not very far away, we get free rooms there, and we love casinos, gambling, and playing cards, so this is quite a treat for us. Ryder will have a fun two days spent with my parents, and we will have a fun two days spent at Pala. This will serve as both our Anniversary weekend away and our "Babymoon", as this will be our last trip together before we add a new baby to our family.

We look forward to spending lots of time together, perhaps some spa treatments, lots of blackjack, Pai Gow and hopefully enjoying a restaurant or two without worrying about someone eating crayons or throwing sippy cups, or be in a hurry to get our child a bath before bed. We will be able to enjoy a few moments of adult time together.

Here's to a great weekend!

4 Years Ago, I Became a Remmert

November 4, 2006 - Tyson and I were married and my life as a Remmert began.

It was a lovely wedding and perfect day. We still look back on that day with very fond memories.

Four years ago today, our live as two became one, and we accepted each other for better or worse. Our life together has been far better than worse! We have done so many great things, among those welcoming our son Ryder into the world, and having our little girl Rylie on the way.

I love being a Remmert, I love being Tyson's wife and I cant wait for many more fun years to come!

Happy Anniversary my Love!

Halloween 2010

I know, I know, I'm a few days late, but better late than never, right?... So here is our Halloween 2010 recap.

Superman has Left the Building! The End

The Story About A Turkey

Last year, my Mother-In-Law Susan, made some darling little turkey decorations (out of pine cones and pipe-cleaners among a few other items) and sent a box to my Mom. My Mom has had them on display in her china cabinet all year, and just pulled them out to place them with the Autumn decorations that adorn the formal dining room table.

Ryder got his hands on one of the little turkeys last week and he loves playing with it. He puts it on his toy motorcycles to go for a ride, he zoom's it around the house with his Buzz Lightyear, Woody and Cars figures, he tries to dunk it in our water cups, he holds it while he is watching a movie, and even throws it down and then picks it up to give the turkey kisses and says "turkey booboo hurt".

Lets just say I don't think this turkey will be adorning our Thanksgiving table this year (he's a little beat up)...but Ryder sure has had his fun with it.

Happy November!
