Quick Update

Hello All!

So we noticed that we hadn't updated our blog for a few months.  Life gets busy and the next thing you know it's already JULY! :-)  So I wanted to give you all a quick update on what has been going on for our family the past couple of months.

April:
Tony and I did participate in the Warrior Dash and had a BLAST!  The weather was a bit chilly and overcast, which we weren't expecting, but it was so much fun.  The obstacles, the muddy trails and the interesting and funny outfits people decided to wear were well worth the anticipation. We did not partake in the giant beer or turkey leg at the end of the race, but we both agreed that we will definitely be participating next year. :-)  (I'll apologize ahead of time that our picture can't be viewed larger, we took it on Tony's phone and forgot to update his settings for a larger picture!)


May/June:
May and June flew by for us pretty quickly.  We stayed busy with traveling to visit Tony's family over Mother's Day weekend and then hanging out with my side of the family for Memorial Day.  In June I had my first business trip, which also was my first trip away from Tony and Jera...it was hard but a fun trip since I was able to see the Detroit Red Wing's Hockey Arena!!!! (For those of you who don't know this, I LOVE the Detroit Red Wing's).  We also had a great visit with Ashden and his family.  It was fun to see him, his parents and watch how big he has gotten!  I can't believe he's going to be FOUR in October.



Jera:
Little Miss. Jera is cruising right along.  It won't be much longer till she is walking!  She can stand in one place and bounce up and down without holding onto anything for support and we've tricked her a couple of times into taking one step towards us...but then she figures out what we are doing and starts to automatically sit down!

She is enjoying her time at Kindercare and gets extremely happy in the mornings when I drop her off.  She is also extremely tired in the evenings when we pick her up!  :-)  I'll be sure to update with a video later on when she starts walking so you can all enjoy some of her very first steps!  

I'll leave you with a picture of Jera, this was from our trip to the Zoo with Ashden and the family.


Have a wonderful 4th of July everyone! :-D
