Getting ready for baby!

We're getting there! December 3, 2009

New Year's Eve - Let's Party!!
(Not sure if we even saw midnight)

January 8, 2010 - One month to go!!
I'm so done...

Merry Meatball TEN!

The fun hasn't stopped and Karie and Marcie prepared a slide show for this years festivities (I'll be working on getting it up here). Trish and Eric seemed to be having a good time.

Karie and I have been hosting Merry Meatball Madness for 10 years!! That is hard to believe! It's been so long that Tara, one of my former dance students, is all grown up now!

Uh - we've even inspired a Meat Madness board game and Kevin brought it for us to play! It's actually really fun.

UFC strategy meeting

Love my Karie!!

Baby Shower!

Karie threw us a baby shower with a make-your-own-waffle bar.

Everything was so cute!

Stan the Afghan was there, of course!

And we got some really nice things!

ASU Football 2009

We didn't do as well as the Strauss' in game attendance this season. It was hot and being pregnant can make a girl tired!


This is what you call a portable grill... I was a doubter but my perfectly grilled hot dog convinced me otherwise.


Happy Halloween, Sun Devil style!

Coyotes Rookie Camp '09

Travis was asked to officiate the Coyotes Rookie camp again which is pretty cool - no pun intended... sorry.

Lewis Family Reunion!

Mom's branch of the Lewis family tree - this thing is huge and very cool.

The beginning of the auction - we had a real live auctioneer this year!

Oh! This bird... my mom was not convinced that this bird was okay. He was fine. Just trying to get some shut eye. This was at Uncle John and Aunt Wanda's house. They have a great place in West Des Moines. Quite a few of us had homemade ice cream and cake at their house.

Nebraska

This is my Gramma Anna Belle and her little house in Arapahoe. Hi Gramma!






Rosenblatt Stadium in Omaha!! I would love to go again sometime when my Devils are playing here... maybe in 2010? It was pretty cool to see in person.











Come on! Look at these faces! Gunnar's Uncle and Cousin: Angus and Hannah. Uncle Norman had some new puppies and some that were about 4 months old, but they were too cute for me to think about taking their pictures.
