6 weeks left!


Only six weeks left until my due date! I am feeling moderately uncomfortable and definitely would not mind if she decides to come a week or two early.

In other news, all of the flowers Bryson and I planted last fall are blooming! You can see them in the corner of the picture. I love having a yard and plan on spending lots of quality time in it now that it's warm and I'm done working. I am white as a ghost from winter so the exposure to the sun is going to do me a LOT of good!

Duke game

We had such a great time on our trip! Bry and I flew in to Durham Wednesday afternoon. After several long hours on the airplanes (especially for the pregnant lady) we cruised to the hotel in our rental car, a red Mustang, and took a nap. That night we had dinner at a TGI Friday's near campus. After dinner, we drove a few blocks, parked and walked to Cameron Indoor Stadium. It was very cold! We were following the crowds, since we didn't really know where we were going, when suddenly we found ourselves in front of the arena. I never would have guessed in a million years that a basketball gym could be found in that building. It is very small inside and only holds 9300 fans. However, I feel like I can guarantee that the opposing team feels as though it holds 3x as many Cameron Crazies as that. The students are a riot! The game ended up being pretty close but my Blue Devils came away with the victory in the end, 71-58.

The next morning, before heading to the airport, we drove around the Duke campus a little and discovered Krzyzewskiville. (That's what the last picture of the tents is of in the next post.) I did some research and found out what it is all about and I have posted more info for those interested. After we took some more pictures of the campus we drove back to the airport. It was a short trip, but one I will never forget.




Cameron Indoor Stadium - It looks like a castle!

New calling and shopping

Today Bryson was released as the Course 15 Sunday School teacher and sustained as the Young Men's secretary in our ward. He is excited for the change and we are proud of his willingness to serve. Unfortunately, he was unwilling to pose for a picture to go with the big news.

In other exciting news, I went shopping for the first time yesterday for our little girl. She got two dresses, a skirt and a pink sweat outfit. We are really looking forward to her birth. The next project is redoing the nursery for a girl baby. I am excited to decorate a "big boy" room too, since Hunter will be moving out of the nursery into the bedroom next door. I was thinking the other day that right now is a great time of life. I'm not always crazy about the sleep deprivation factor, but it is thrilling to be bringing babies into the world and raising a family!

I guess Bry made up for being camera shy earlier by posing for this picture. I can't wait to see him as a daddy to a little girl.

My last basketball game

Me shooting my second free throw. In case you didn't notice the scoreboard, my first free throw sent the game into overtime with 10 seconds left. We won by a three pointer at the buzzer in OT! Glory Days is a very appropriate name for my team. Rumor has it, some scouts for the WNBA were present... (caption by Bryson)

My brother, Ryan, babysat Hunter while we were at the game

Last night I played in my final basketball game (until I get this baby out of me). My team won in overtime. It was really fun! My hubby snapped these pics for the blog. He goes to all of my games-what a man, eh? Girls basketball isn't the most exciting thing. Anyway, I am really going to miss playing, but it is definitely time to be done. When we got home from the game, Hunter was asleep on Ryan's chest. So cute! Hunter loves his Uncle Ryan.
