Our Summer Vacation

At the University of Georgia football stadium.
The last of Blinn's boil.
Battery Park in Charelston, SC.
Scarly and I at a bar in Charelston.

3 beers and a lemonade at Folley Beach, SC!

Blinn and I had a busy and fun September! We celebrated our 3rd anniversary at the Spokane Int'l Airport! We boarded separate planes to visit Jake and Scarlet at their home in Athens, GA on the 10th. It was SO much fun to spend time with them and explore the South! They were wonderful hosts and we accomplished a lot in five days: we toured all of Athens, including the University of Georgia and their football field as well as the other sports facilities Jake manages; ate at delicious restaurants (excluding Cozy Yum Yum); went to the Georgia Aquarium; and spent some time in Charleston, SC. The best part was that we were able to do 99% of it with Jake and Scarlet. I'm already excited for Christmas when we get to see them again!!!




After our time in Athens, we were off to The Big Apple! Blinn had a conference there on Wednesday, so I we decided to make a trip out of it. We stayed Tuesday through Saturday and my mom and dad came over on Wednesday evening. It was truly an amazing (and HUGE) city and we were really happy that we got to tour it with my parents. When people ask what we did, I respond by saying that we visited everything you can think of except museums. :) There just wasn't enough time for everything that NYC has to offer! Some of our highlights were the Today Show; Tavern on the Green; riding the subway; the 4th to last game at Yankee Stadium; the Statue of Liberty; Little Italy; and lunch at the Seinfeld cafe. We made lots of memories, and I hope you enjoy a peek at some pictures.




October 13 is our "big" ultrasound! I'm already saying prayers that Baby C cooperates so we can see if it's a boy or a girl. I'm 18w3d and at our last appointment went very well. The baby's heartbeat was at 152 bpm and it was very loud and strong this time. I've also started to feel some movement which is amazing. Stay tuned for an Oct 13 update! I'll throw in another belly pic then as well.

What a great september you two had!! so nice that you were able to get a "grown up" vacation before baby arrives (you will soon realize exactly what this means...hehe.) Can't wait to find out whether you will be having a little boy or girl!
