Thanksgiving

We spent a lovely Thanksgiving with Lisa's folks up in Pelican Rapids, MN. Jeff and Kristi and Aidyn and Nolan, Donna, Craig and Brett, and Patsy were all able to join us and we all ate too much wonderful food and enjoyed lots of visiting and games! It was a very enjoyable weekend and we are so thankful for our wonderful family!
We also enjoyed The Bee Movie with Jeff and Kristi and the kiddos. I think the adults enjoyed it too!

Sasha's Birthday

This past week my little sister turned 30 yrs old. So my brothers and I decided to do something special for her! We hired this guy to come and sing her a birthday-gram and basically embarrass the heck out of her! So Friday, Lisa and I met Sasha and two of my cousins at Paradiso. While we were waiting for our table this guy shows up and did his best to make her blush. Well I certainly enjoyed it, I'm not so sure Sasha liked the balloon hat that he made for her, but we all did. Its not too often that we can get one up on Sasha, so we better enjoy it while we can. I have a funny feeling that she might be looking for revenge now, so I will probably have to go into hiding for every birthday I have from now on. Oh well, it was definitely worth it!!! Happy Birthday Sasha !!!

34 Weeks

Hello everyone! Greetings from MN! We are at 34 weeks and I continue to feel pretty good. I am more uncomfortable, but that is to be expected. We are having good checkups and I continue to do well at work. Not too much ankle swelling and still great blood pressure, even after 12 hour shifts. So, barring anything going wrong, I'll continue to work!

Cody is still on the job hunt! Please continue to help us pray for a job for him. It is getting very frustrating and worrisome, so some extra prayers would be appreciated!! Meanwhile he is a wonderful help around the house as many chores are getting tough for me!

Much love to all and may you all be safe and have a wonderful holiday season!

Lisa and Cody

32 weeks

Hello family and friends! This in NOT the best pic of me, I was really tired, but the belly, now that is something else! 32 weeks and counting! I now can't wait until the 37 week "safety net". That is when you are no longer considered pre-term if one should happen to go into labor then. This is such an exciting journey! Even though my back hurts, I itch like crazy, and I have to pee every 1/2 hour at least, the end results is going to be beyond worth it!

The McDonalds Massacre

For some reason my pregnant wife has been craving McDonalds apple pies lately. So twice in the last 2 weeks we hit the drive thru and placed our orders, but when we get to the window to pick up our food they tell us "sorry, we are all out of apple pies!" The last time this happened I thought for sure my hormonal, pregnant, apple pie craving wife was gonna rip the head off the poor, unsuspecting McDonalds employee. But instead she almost burst into tears! So this week when she said she wanted McDonalds apple pie you can imagine my nervousness. I was pretty sure that if they didn't have any apple pie on this day, it would go down in history as the Great McDonalds Massacre!! But on the other hand, who am I to say no to a 1/4 cheesburger and those delicious fries. So we were on our way!!! Thankfully tragedy was averted, they had apple pie on this day. I don't think those poor employees knew how close they came to seeing the wrath of a hormonal pregnant rampage!! Who would have thought a McDonalds apple pie would have such power over a person.
