Joes Birthday 33 years old!

Joes Birthday was really good I fed him breakfast in bed we went to a movie out to dinner and had a cookie cake. His parents gave him some money to help us fix the jeep they had it in a bank envelope with a bow on top it was pretty funny. I got him a massage chair since Im not really giving any back rubs these days. He loved all the phone calls and text messages he got from everyone thanks a bunch for that.

Baby Rayburn

Here are the first images of Baby Rayburn! The last ultrasound picture is 8 weeks along and the other two are 12 weeks. We had the scan for down syndrom and chances are 1 in over 10,000 so we are ok on that. This last apointment we got to hear the heart beat and that was really neat. We find out if it is a boy or girl on Feb 25th!!!!! I really cant wait we have our names picked out. If it is a boy we are nameing him after our fathers so his full name will be Rocky Jefferson Rayburn and for a girl we are going to call her Hayden Kay Rayburn. We will be happy with either a Rocky or a Hayden. Brooklyn and Cody are really excited for a little brother or sister they call asking how Im doing all the time it will be a lot of fun.

Trans Siberian Orchestra

I know I am very behind on my blogging but for my Christmas present from Joe this year he took me to the Trans Siberian Orchestra! It was amazing I was a little nervous the baby wouldnt let me make it through the whole show but things went just fine. These pictures are terrible cause they were taken with my phone but it was an amazing show with lights, lazers, fire and amazingly talented musicians and singers. If you ever get a chance to go you should take it!

Hurricane IkE!!!!

So as you probably all know we had the winds from Hurricane Ike come through our area. I lost power and water for about 3 days and there is a lot of clean up involved. I can only imagine what Texas looks like right now. But the biggest thing that happened in the back yard at Joes house there is a tree that uprooted and fell over. I dont have pictures of it but it landed on the neighboors garage and crunched the front part of it This was incredible I should have stood next to it so you should see how big it is. It almost comes to the top of my head.
You can't really see it but the roots on the sides are totally snapped!
This is about the middle of the tree where it smashed the fence.

I'm Engaged!

This is as close as I could get to the ring
Just another picture of the ring
This is one of the many beautiful views of the lake we went to

Joe and I took this right before we left Lake Hope where we got engaged.
