JJ and Kaylee

Matt and I watched JJ and Kaylee from Saturday morning until Sunday night just to give Janielle and Matthias a break. We had lots of fun! On Saturday morning Matt and JJ went mini golfing while Kaylee and I went to a baby shower and a bridal shower.

JJ loves playing foosball.

JJ shot hoops at Chuck E Cheese.

JJ and Kaylee posed with Chuck E Cheese.

Shh! Kaylee is sleeping! (and I was tired too!)

Lake Tahoe

On Saturday morning we didn't have anything to do so we called up Matt's mom to see if she wanted to go to Lake Tahoe with us. I love Lake Tahoe! It is so beautiful there. We only stayed for one night, but we got to get away from the heat for a little while. The high was 65 degrees and the low was 28 degrees. It was a little chilly!

Matt and I were hanging out on the pier watching the sun set and we noticed that these birds that were really far out were actually walking around and not swimming. The water was really shallow for a long ways out, so I decided to see how far that I could walk out without getting my clothes all wet. By the time that I made it all the way out there my feet were numb! The temperture outside was probably in the fifties, so you can imagine how cold that the water was!

We went on a hike to this place called Eagle Lake. The only way to get there was hiking, so there weren't a lot of people around. It was so beautiful and peaceful.

Here is me, Matt, and Jolene with Emerald Bay in the background.

Matt's Dad is Cancer Free!!!



Matt's dad went to the doctor yesterday to get the final results after the chemo treatments. We were all excited to find out that he is now cancer free! It has been a long road for him, but all of his hard work has paid off. He even got to ring the bell at the doctor's office to signify that his cancer is gone. We are all so grateful! We all got together today to swim and bbq and celebrate the great news.

Here We Go Again . . .


So after taking a break for the last year, we have decided to do invitro again. We have 2 frozen embryos left, so this is our last chance without having to do another egg harvest. The frozen embryo transfer is really not that bad. Just a few doctors appointments, lots of pills, and a few days of bedrest. If everything goes according to plan, the scheduled date is October 14th, and we will know if it worked on October 24th. We are going to be having a fast on Sunday October 12th, so we would love it if you will remember us during your fast on that day. Thanks for all of your prayers and support, and remember to keep your fingers crossed!

Go Dbacks! . . . Again

We went to the Diamondbacks game again on Saturday night with Janeille, Matthias, Jeremiah, Kaylee, Andy, Austin, and Carter. According to Matt, our seats were so high up that if the top would've been open we could've stuck our heads outside. Let's just say that we had a bird's eye view of the whole field. We got free Eric Byrnes' hats (hence the blond hair). I don't think that Kaylee had very much fun because every time people started cheering she started crying. Unfortunately the Diamonbacks lost.
