Trip to the county fair

The Boone county fair was this last week and we visited a few times for dinner and to see the animals. It's like an annual reunion where you can see people you haven't seen all year. It was amazing to see all of my old friends from 4-H that now have kids close to Morganne's age. One afternoon Brit, LeighAnn, Nicci, and I decided to take the kids out and have lunch at the fair. (Can't beat fair food in my opinion, but it may just be the atmosphere where we eat it!) I for once did not bring my camera, but thankfully LeighAnn did so here are a couple pictures from our day. The first one is the 3 kiddos checking out the baby chicks and Young McDonald's farm. Morganne was fascinated most by the bunny rabbits I think.

It's been a while since I've posted any video of Mo. So here is a little bit of her yesterday. She is getting so big and makes us smile everyday.

catching up

Sorry everyone, this pregnancy is affecting me a bit different than with Morganne. I'm thoroughly exhausted and nauseous, without vomiting luckily, all the time. So, any down time I've been on the couch asleep rather than typing here. Hopefully once out of the first trimester things will improve. My doctor's appt. is Aug. 14th.
As an adendum to the last post, I wanted to share a blessing and show you how God is working. Upon telling our friends about the misfortune of the weedeater and blower being stolen out of the back of Justin's truck, Justin was given a weedeater to use for the rest of the season from a friend, and then this morning at church another friend said that they were going to give him their blower. It's still in the box and just this week she was trying to decide what to do with it to get it out of her garage. So, all is working out fine. It's still frustrating to Justin, just because it was so easily prevented, but things happen and this way we are being blessed by our friends.
Another big happening lately is that we lost yet another couple close friends to Knoxville, TN. Jason, Lisa, and Shannon moved last week to pursue their further education at JBC. Like with Wes and Melanie, we will miss them so much, but we wish them the best. And we promise to come visit!!! We are thankful for technology and blogs to help us keep updated on their lives. Hint hint Lisa and Melanie!!! :c)
Anyhow, I am headed back to the couch. Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day.
