We're Pregnant!!!

It is finally our turn! We have had so many friends and family members get married and have children in the time we have been married and now it is our turn to have our own baby! I am 10 weeks along and have been pretty sick the whole time, just hoping that it goes away in 2 weeks. Oh, I am due October 6th, yes another October baby, it's a good month!

P.S. It's going to be a soccer player!!

The Latest "Moos"

You cannot see the words unless I have a picture, so I am posting this ridiculous cow and filling you in on the latest "moos". Nothing too exciting has happened. Travis is still working at Target while searching for a job and I am still working at the daycare with the infants who are getting all too active!

I guess I will just put my story on the blog so that I don't have to tell it any more. Over the Thanksgiving weekend I (Rachel) passed out and hit my mouth just below my nose of the door jam in the bathroom. I had a swollen lip, loose teeth, and a bloody nose. I went to the dentist and they said I had no fractures and the gums were just swollen so wear my retainer and take ib profen. Well, I went in last Monday to see how things were doing. The roots of my front two teeth were damaged and the tooth was dead so I got root canals done on those on Saturday. The bone of my other tooth lost its density from the trauma so we have to watch that closely with a periodontist so as not to lose the tooth. She has high hopes that the bone will heal on its own. The root canals went fine, very minor pain. So basically, I am doing just fine now, I just can't wait until I am all healed and I can go to Red Robin and bite into a huge burger!!

Puzzles

Travis and I used to do puzzles all the time so we decided to do one over this Christmas break.
This puzzles was a really hard 1000 piece puzzle and it took us a week, but it was fun and we FINISHED!!!

What a beauty! Now we are never going to take it apart!

3 Wonderful Years!

Happy 3rd year Anniversary to us!! For our anniversary we drove up to Breckenridge and enjoyed the beauty of the mountains. Everyone else had the same idea I think, because there was a lot of traffic. But at least the drive was pretty (the picture below!)

We are at one of our favorite places called Downstairs At Eric's. It is just a casual place to hangout and watch any sport you want, as they play them all. They have the best pizza ever, and if you know us you know we are pizza people!

After eating we just walked around the cute little mountain town. It was beautiful up there.

The shops were fun and we really enjoyed our time in the mountains!

I just want to say that I am the happiest girl ever. I married such a wonderful man and our marriage has been a blast so far. We talked about all the fun things we have already done together and we can't help but get excited for a life time of more fun. I love Travis so much and I am very lucky to have him in my life. I can't believe that it had already been 3 years!!

Christmas Lights

Anna found this really cool house that had their lights programmed to the songs on a certain radio station, it was pretty much one of the coolest things I have ever seen. Sorry that it didn't turn out better, but get a load of this.

Ginger Bread Houses!

Travis and I have been trying to come with fun things to do together and this last week with the Christmas season and all we decided to make a ginger bread house. It was actually quite fun! We thought we would show off our master piece!

Merry Christmas

Brianna is showing off her new princess ballerina stuff she got from Santa! Kids make Christmas so exciting.
We were at my parents' house for Christmas as well as Thanksgiving. We were unable to get work off and handle the expenses of travelling to Montana. We missed the Hopkins' family, but we had a great Christmas non-the-less!

Audrey likes Papa's boots and wanted to wear them even though they covered her entire legs and she couldn't even walk, it was pretty entertaining.

We ate at August Moon, which has become a tradition we have done for about 4 years now! Audrey has made a favorite with Travis, which all kids seem to do!

We posted some of the pictures we sent out for Christmas this year. We don't have kids so we tried to take some fun ones so as not to bore you. Everyone always just wants to see the kids.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
