First Show of the Season

So it is here...Horse Show season is upon us once again. This past weekend I spent Friday through Sunday in Mason. I didn't work, just helped a bit with hair and makeup on Sunday. Even though there were only 11 horses showing from Crystal Farms, it seemed like we were busy in the ring. Everyone did a great job - including one girl's first blue ribbon!! It was also great to hang out with Misty. She has 2 new ponies and a new camper she was sweet enough to let me stay in. She did great with her new boys!! Bella went with me on Friday and then Nate, Bert and my dad came up on Saturday to watch. Eryn and her family and Lindsey came on Saturday in the afternoon. It was so nice to see all of them as well.

I am officially into my 2nd trimester (13 weeks). I am still sick - no fun at all. We hope it gets better soon. We are very excited b/c in a month or 2 we will be able to find out if it is a boy or girl joining our family. We have also been looking at cribs and bedding and bottles and clothes and strollers...oh my! There is so much stuff out there for babies...it is very overwhelming. Luckily some friends who are new(er) moms have been really great with recommendations and ideas. I think we will also be hitting up some mom 2 mom sales hunting down the good deals.

I guess that is about all for now....

The Zoo

We went to the Detroit Zoo this past Saturday. Nate is obsessed with going and ran around like a little kid (back pack and all). I had not been since high school, so it was a welcome trip. The weather was perfect, most of the animals were out, although many were sleeping in the sun.

New News

Well I think everyone pretty much knows but...Nate and I are expecting! I am due November 1st and honestly cannot wait. I have been dealing with the (all day) morning sickness, it has been kicking my butt. However, it seems to be getting better - fingers crossed.

This weekend Lindsey and Russell are tying the knot. We are so excited for them and happy to see all the out-of-towners!! And we know it will be a beautiful event.

Heather is also coming home on Wednesday and we cannot wait to see her. I hope even with her injury she will still be able to boogey down on the dance floor!!
