Crafty

I decided that I wanted to do something crafty for Lucy's room. So I went to the Craft Warehouse on Eagle (my part of town these days) and spent about an hour looking around and getting decorating ideas for my new home. I picked up some fun papers and letters and made...

...this!
I think it turned out pretty cute. Johnny and I will be painting Lucy's room this weekend, after all, she'll be here in six weeks!

This was our first meal in our new home...Mac and Cheese! We are loving our new house, I will post more pictures soon.

Cape Lookout Vacation!

CAUTION: LOTS OF PICTURES! Last week the whole Spjute clan (60 of us) made the 9 hour car ride (including my 7 month pregnant self) to our favorite place on the Oregon Coast, Cape Lookout! The first couple of days it was pretty foggy on the beach, but that didn't stop us!Gavin and uncle Johnny

Most of us did some boogie boarding while we were there (not including my 7 month pregnant self). Thank goodness for wet suits!

Johnny had a blast boogie boarding, even if he did eat it a couple times. I like the wetsuit, it accentuates his skinniness.Now that's a cover shot!
Short hike to Munsen Falls.

If you click on this picture to make it big you can see how swollen my feet were. There is even a fold in my right ankle. How attractive.

Of coarse we had to visit the Tillamook Cheese Factory. Free cheese testing and the best ice cream ever. This is just documentation of one of many trips. (Thanks again Lisa!-she picked up the check on this trip.)

The Goonie Rock!! Where they actually filmed. Hey you guys!!We took many walks on the beach where my swollen feet thoroughly enjoyed the ice cold water.

Can't go camping without making s'mores, and creepily devouring them!

One day Grandma Spjute treated us all to a whale watching trip in Depot Bay. It was so cool, and my 7 month pregnant self didn't even ralf! (I can't say the same for everyone) And yes, we saw a whale!

Uncle Mark had a pirate party with the great-grandchildren. They had so much fun on their hunt.

One of the best parts about being on the coast is enjoying the sunsets. This is cousin Alicia, skipping with glee through the sand.

Heidi, and the hat that NEVER left her head during the entire vacation. I think Jake would be proud.

I can't remember who took this picture (I think Lisa), but it cracks me up. I mostly laugh so I don't cry, look at that belly!

All in all I would say family vacation this year was a HUGE success. Lots of fun, food, and family, the best "f" words out there! Thanks grandma for making this happen.

How I've Missed You...

Cape Lookout, Oregon

See you in 2 days!

Magical Muggles

Kind of on the spot, my sister Sherstine decided to have a Harry Potter party. So we all dove into my parents costume box and dressed as characters from the movie. Since the 6th movie comes out next week we decided to watch the first five movies in the next four days. I put lots of pictures on the slideshow below, but some of these you just needed to be able to see up close. (p.s. I am aware that I look hideous.)

The gang: Dumbledore, Uncle Vernon, Draco , Ron, Harry, Hagrid, Hermione, Trelawny, Snape, and Hedwig

Best buds.

Sweet shot of Harry showing us his moves.

Big Momma's HOUSE!

Big momma is right! I am getting bigger by the day. Sleeping is becoming less and less comfortable, but so far I have been managing the heat ok. I am 27 weeks along and we are so ready to meet this little girl who kicks me all day long.
Also, Johnny and I bought a house! We will be closing on the 19th of August, and moving in that weekend if all goes well. We are so excited! We are feeling more and more like grown-ups these days. The best thing is we will be all moved in before Lucy comes home. Click here to see more pictures of the place we will soon call home!

Three Years!!!

Today is our three year anniversary! I came home to 2 surprises. First of all these beauties pictured above. And also Johnny told me that I wasn't going to work on Friday! He had worked it out with my boss and everything. We knew we wouldn't be celebrating today, we are celebrating all weekend instead! I have no idea what we'll be doing, but I can't wait. Johnny is always awesome at planning rad stuff!

Here's a look back at our special day three years ago!

Not the best of us, but dang look at my dress!

The girls, all of which are married now. Oh, except Heidelberg.

The delicious luncheon!

We love this picture of us after feeding eachother the cake. It's priceless!

It has been an amazing three years. We've been through alot and learned alot about eachother. I picked the best guy to spend forever with. Love you mister!

What do you think?

The chop with hi-lights won out. I'm a sucker for a blonde summer. I love it! (p.s. If you need your hair done my sister does cut and color for $45. WAY cheaper than anywhere else! Let me know!)
