Baby Shower

On Saturday afternoon, our family and friends presented us with a wonderful baby shower for Makenna! Even from a guys perspective, totally feeling out of place normally at an event like this, it wasn't that bad. We got most of the things we needed and really had a lot of fun in the process. Kimi lit up everytime she saw that the registry was almost completely full of items purchased. You know, the gifts are great but the real joy is seeing all of that stuff and it making us really want to see Makenna that much more. Kimi and I want to sincerely thank everyone who came. You all really made us feel loved. We appreciate the great support. It was especially nice to have a get together with friends and family that we haven't had much opportunity so see in a while. Thanks again. Enjoy some of the pics from the party!

"Cool guys hanging at a baby shower..."


"Kimi and Christine."


"Cameron and Hadley having fun."


"We were laughing at what my cousin Hadley was doing. :)"


"I was getting some good advice from this book."

Many thanks to our good friend Guy Bierwirth for taking so many photos at the shower. Great job Guy! You can view more of our photo collection by clicking here.

Today marks the day of another week down, and only 7 (SEVEN!!!) more to go until the baby birthday countdown ends. Makenna's pushing and kicking and generally causing my wife great discomfort each night but the bright side is she's alive, healthy, and letting us know she's still there and ready to come out soon. ;) Oh, more good news, Kimi is feeling a LOT better. She still has a small cough and the sniffles, but all in all, she's a thousand times better than she was. Thank you all again for your prayers. She turned in her notice that Friday will be her last day at the daycare. She is having a much harder time leaning down and taking care of the kids and is always sore so since her replacement was just waiting for the word, Kimi thought it was time. We want her to get all the rest she can before the big event. SO, that paycheck was fun while it lasted. Haha

I've got to share with you guys one more thing and I'll let you go for today. Last Friday at work, we had another little mishap. You remember when we went on vacation and I posted that there was a flood at work right after I left? Someone forgot that the water main wasn't fixed yet and they turned on the valve again and guess what happened? Yeah, it was a flood of biblical proportions around here! The lobby, teller line, MY OFFICE, generally the whole branch, hallways, exit routes, yeah, they all got flooded. Here's the pics from that fun day before it got way chaotic!


"See the river of nasty red Oklahoma mud flowing past? Yeah, it was everywhere!"


"This is our lobby. It was just beginning to cover the entire floor."


"This is behind the teller line. Lots of fun getting out of there."

Sorry about how big these were but you've got to see the details! :) My life sometimes is a little crazy. But its part of the joy, I suppose. Thanks for sharing in it. :) God bless.

ps. If you look at the right side of the screen, you will notice two new items I recently posted over there. The first one is our Flickr.com website where we keep our photos. Go by there and check them out. You can even make comments if you like the pictures. Lots of fun ones there.

The second thing is the music player. I've listed a lot of songs on there for your listening pleasure. Just click on it to start it up. You can also shuffle some songs around on there by clicking on the little "s" button on the far right of the player. The volume control is over there too. I hope you all enjoy!
