Almost Heaven.

Being with family and in the beautiful state of West Virginia really is
almost heaven.
You were so right, John (Denver, that is!).

We had such a great time visiting family! I was so fortunate to grow up very close to my family. It often makes me sad that we live so far away, but that is what makes trips like these so very special to me!

We had such a blast! As I mentioned before, Sullivan was sick, so that was really a bummer, but we tried to make the best of it. We had great food, wonderful company, and a super-fun,four-wheeler ride! It just doesn't get better than that!


March 3-5

Cam hangin' with his cousins.
Grandpa and Cam spending some quality time together!

(Great) Grandma and Grandpa Wilson with the boys for the first time!


Uncle Alan and the counsins having a little heart to heart!



Super Baby! He doesn't look sick, does he?




A beautiful day for a ride through the holler!

Priceless.

Cathy and I...and our boys!

Smooch!

Love you, Grandma and Grandpa!

Pot of Gold! (you HAVE to watch this one!)

Happy Saint Patrick's Day!

We "celebrated" with a walk with a friend on a beautiful day, some outside playtime, a little cookin' in the kitchen, and giggling. When I heard this laughing, it felt like I had
struck gold!
This sound is just too cute!

(What isn't cute is my "muppets-like" voice that you hear. Let me explain: I was wiping off Sully's face after a yummy meal of blueberries (messy!) and he proceeded to push me away. So, I was joking around with him and said "be nice to mamma" in a funny voice. He giggled and giggled and giggled and giggled.)

Enjoy...I sure did!


Another big thing that happened today was that Cam (kinda) figured out how to use a sippy cup! And Chris got it on video. He hasn't figured out how to tilt the cup yet, but he is getting there.

Lastly, I am working on a post from our trip to West Virginia and Pennsylvania. Thanks for being

so patient :).

There are just so many good pictures to choose from!

I just had to.

Thank, you, Britt, for directing me to this photo.
Totally my mantra for the day that I will just repeat
over and
over and
over and ......etc.....

Making Lemonade from Lemons.

Or in other words, when you get a virus on vacation, make the best of it (if possible). We had a wonderful time visiting, meeting, and getting reconnected with family last week! It was great to see everyone and I was so proud to introduce the boys to their family.
Sullivan got sick though.
That was a bummer.
Travelling with a sick baby is no fun. My sweet, happy, pleasant Sullivan was not that. But hopefully he is on the mend.
I can't wait to share more pictures, but for now here is a sneak peak of just a few. Thanks, Cathy, for these!


We got to celebrate Dad's birthday (a little early) with him.
Nothing makes someone feel better than some snuggle time with Great Grandma!

Look at those chompers!!!!

in the meantime.

Here are some pictures of "life" around here. (just from phone-sorry about the quality).

Thank you, Scott, for the Christmas gift. I had a great time at Viking Cooking School! Aren't those beautiful colors?
A little cousin time. So lucky to have family so close!

Cam all ready for church.



Enjoying a beautiful afternoon. Don't you love the camo Uncle Aaron?

Enjoying a nice dinner with Grandma and Grandpa. Yum! Blueberries! Thanks, Britt!

Please be patient.

(please be patient with us while we work through some technical difficulties. The blog will be "up and running" shortly). Thank you!

Super Bowl

So, being from the "Burg" we are definitely Steelers Fans. The outcome of the game didn't turn out exactly how we would have liked....but we had a great time hanging out with some really awesome friends. Next year for the super bowl the boys will have a playmate. Zoe...we can't wait to meet you!!!!!




Thanks for hosting! We had a great time!


I love this one. Cam is grabbing at everything...including my camera as I tried to take a picture. I think that my days are about to start getting even busier!



I think that J.D. is giving Sully a lecture. Something about "stay away from my little girl when she gets here..until she is 18 that is!"....
We tired out "Moose".
