Thunder Over Louisville

Saturday we went to an even that Louisville has every year called Thunder Over Louisville.  They had an air show from 3pm until it got dark.  They used all kinds of aircraft from the airforce.  It was actually pretty cool to see the different types of planes, many of them used in war in the past and nowadays.  They did lots of tricks and made it fun to see.  Once it got dark they had an amazing fireworks show...bigger than any I've ever seen!  I stole a pic of the fireworks off some guy's website.  I figured I'd be able to find one a lot better than I could have taken w/ my little camera out there.  As you can see there were TONS of people there and traffic was a BEAST afterwards.  We got home around midnight and were sooooooooo tired.  It was torture to wake up on Sunday....at noon...for church at 1pm : )  Honestly though when I woke up I felt like I had 2 hours of sleep, haha.

Pete got a nice little sunburn being outside all day!
They set off the fireworks over the Ohio River.  Soooo cool.  They shot the firworks off the bridge and a few barges in the river.  They played music that went along with the fireworks too!

16 weeks and counting!

Ok after much delay...here is the first pic!  Coming around, slowly but surely!  I had another Dr.'s appt today and got to hear the heartbeat again.  So fun!  We find out if it's a boy or girl in 4 more weeks!

Happy Easter!

So I figured we should take a quick snapshot of our little family for easter : )  
Fiona and Beasley weren't quite sure what we were trying to do....oh well, it works!  As you can see from the last pics I've put up of Beasley he's SO much bigger!  
We had a nice relaxing Easter with Pete's parents and can't wait for this crazy weather to stop and just leave me with some SUNSHINE!  
And yes, I did chop my hair off a few weeks ago for those who were wondering!  I was just OVER long hair for now!

Heat vs Pacers

A few weeks ago we went to Indiana to see the game!  We went with a few other people at work and had lots of fun!  We had 4th row seats, center court.  Pete was, of course, in heaven!


We were soo close!  It was awesome.
Who can spot Larry Bird???

Wedding in Phoenix

I got to take a nice little getaway to SUNNY WARM Phoenix a few weekends ago.  It was SOOOO nice to get away and not go to work!  Colette is a good friend and roommate of 2 years up at BYU-Idaho.  She found her prince charming and they tied the knot!  I was one of her bridesmaids.  Here are just a few quick snapshots I took at her beautiful backyard reception.


Her "cupCAKE" wedding cake was BEAUTIFUL.  What a sight! 
Oh I also got to stay with my good friend Jen and her cute little family after the wedding for  a few days.  Her CUTIE of a little boy was such a doll and made sure to entertain me while I was at his place.  Jen and her hubby were so sweet to take care of me and drive me around town.  I am SO wishing I was back there now...so nice and warm!  It is FREEZING here today and raining!!!!

Baby Knight due Sept. 29

Here's our little 1 cm long peanut!  We went to the Dr. for the first time on Monday and got to see this little blob inside of me with a little heart racing a mile a minute!  It was so much fun to see!  At least it was for me.....Pete got a little queasy/motion sick from watching the ultra sound screen and had to leave the room as soon as he saw the little heartbeat! Haha my poor hubby doesn't know what's in store for him - it's only week 9!

Ice/Snow Storm

Ok so this is old news but I just downloaded these pics from my camera and had to post them!  We had a bad storm roll through here (not surprising, seeing as we have had every kind of crazy thing happen since we've moved out here!) and it seemed to get worse and worse each day!  The poor dogs got sooo cold but they dealt with it.  Fiona refused to even touch the snow at first but after holding if for a day she figured it had to be done!
We took the dogs out one night and saw that the ice had competely covered this tree!  It was so pretty!
Then it just kept getting snowing and freezing over and snowing and freezing over......
And the trees couldn't take it anymore!  This one had the strength to just bend over due to the weight of the ice but many older bigger trees just broke left and right!
The whole thing lasted about a week.....that's one week too long for me!  I'm ready for some CA sunshine!!!
