Changes in 2013

Change #1:
It is now official. Patrick accepted the position in Denver. We will move the beginning of January. I am actually happy about it because it is an exciting leap for our adult lives. What a change for 2013!

Change #2:
I am going to have two of my frozen embryos implanted on around November 27th. The chance for twins is highly probable. I am praying for a healthy pregnancy and a good doctor in Colorado.

Change #3:
Well, I don't really have another. The two listed are big enough for us.

Deep breath. Breathe. We will get through this with God's help. He will take care of us and I believe is leading us through this for an unforseable reason. I am trusting in God to give us the wisdom to use these changes to bring glory to Him. Please remember us in your prayers.

Hottotter

The Belton fire department had an awesome open house Saturday. They let kids climb the fire truck ladder, spray the water hose and go into a real medical helicopter! Of course, Alex didn't do any of it, but he got close to the helicopter and ate a hotdog. Good times.

Fireman Alex

Saturday, the fire dept. in Temple held a fun firefest at the whistle stop. The kids were able to ride in the back of this fire truck, wear a fireman suit while doing fire drills, and slide down a big inflatable slide. He also got to spend time with Zaky and Jonas (you can see them in the background waiting to get on the truck.) That was one happy little boy!

Bunnies

He got to sit in the bunny pen!

Tongues!

We went to a drive through safari in Johnson City yesterday. We toured in an enclosed trailer pulled by a tractor. Alex was thrilled with just that part.

As we took off, all the animals surrounded the trailer. We had a bucket of feed and fed the animals. The bison was by far my favorite. Alex was thrilled with them too. They walked beside us and stuck out their tongues. All we had to do was drop the food in their mouths. We got licked a few times! We were able to pet them and get a great up close view of these wonderful creatures. I wanted to give him a great big snugly hug. (Yeah, I know, you are really surprised right now, huh? ;) ).
