We've got a bun in the oven!!

Guess what everyone! We're gonna have a baby!!!!! This is the first picture of our new little baby. We are so excited for this new little addition to our family. We are three months along and our due date is May 22. I know it has been quite some time since I've posted anything but now I'll have to keep everyone posted on this little guy or girl. We are so thrilled to be parents!! I put a few picture below of how we announced it to everyone.
This is how we told Jason's parents,we wrapped up a little ghost onesie and wrote on a little card " BOO! Surprise, guess who's gonna be grandparents again!" They were so shocked and excited about the new little addition.
This was my mother and father in laws reaction. Sorry Deanna, i know your not a huge fan of this picture but I loved how shocked you both were.
This is how we announced to my family. Almost everyone from my family was at my parents house for Sunday dinner and I was in charge of dessert so I made a cake and wrote "we are pregnant" on it. We made it all through dinner without saying anything about it. Then I got the cake out and asked my mom to cut it, the picture below tells it all.
This was my moms reaction as she read the top of the cake. Everyone was so excited, there was a lot screaming going on at the Jackson house that night.
This is how we announced to friends and some family. We went to a few Halloween parties with these costumes and I was dressed up as a bun in oven and Jason was a baker! Everyone loved the costumes.

Summer time!

It's officially summer time!  I am so excited that I get my husband back for three months.  School has occupied the majority of his life lately.  I can't believe how much studying is involved in nursing school!  I just have to remember, only one year to go!  Yeah!!  The first year has actually gone by really fast.  I'm am sad that summer is here because I won't get to watch our friends daughter anymore.  For the past semester I got to watch her almost every morning and take her to school.  We had so much fun together.  Every morning we would eat breakfast together, take Bella for a walk and then usually do her hair ( if she would allow it)  and then if time would allow we would make a bow to match her outfit.  I had so much fun with that girl, I'm gonna miss our time together.   Happy summer everyone!!!

Jill's baby shower!

My sister Jill had her baby shower this week, and we all had so much fun.  She got some of the cutest little clothes and shoes and everything else you can think of.   She is due in June and we are so excited for her to come.   


  Some of the sisters with the mom to be. 
Look how cute!  My mom made this for Jill's little one, I love it!
The group gift from the sisters.
Headbands made by yours truly. 
I made this sign for Jill's little girls room.  She can hang all her bows from the ribbons hanging down and then she can hang all the headbands from the little knobs.  Jenny and my mom helped me make all those bows.
The cutest little dress I've ever seen, I had to get it, she will look so cute in it!
Jill with some of her girlfriends.
My mom with sweet little Grant, aren't his shoes so cute!
Jill requested a diaper cake for her shower, i had never even heard of such a thing.   This was my first attempt, I thought it came out really cute.

Road trip!

This past Saturday Jason and I had the day off. This never happens because I almost always work on Saturday. So we wanted to do something fun, Jason suggested that we drive the Apache Trail. I wasn't quite sure what that would involve but I was game for anything, I just wanted to get out of the house. So we hit the open road and headed toward the Superstition mountains. Oh my gosh, I had no idea it would be that gorgeous! I definitely recommend you all go. We even stopped by this little ghost town that was pretty interesting.The ghost town
Jason pretending he got locked in the jail .
Then me being locked up in the jail.


This is the first thing you will see when you go into their restaurant, old cowboy boots hanging from the ceiling, it was hilarious!




Then we got back in our car and this was pretty much me for the rest of the trip, documenting all the beautiful scenery.

The newest member of the family!

We had another new little addition to the family, this is my brothers son Grant. We all love him so much! He was born back in February but I haven't been able to figure out how to download his picture because of my new camera. For those of you who know me at all you know I am a complete idiot when it comes to the computer. Anyways, he is the sweetest thing. I love that he lives right around the corner so I can babysit anytime! Seriously Courtney I can be over in about 2 minutes! I love being an aunt!!!!

Happy Valentines Day!


Who needs a dozen roses when you can have a dozen chocolate covered strawberries! Jason has been at work all day so I wanted to make him something yummy . So I thought to myself you can never go wrong with strawberries smothered in chocolate. I can't wait for him to come home and see what I've created for him! Happy V-Day everyone!!

My newest nephew!



This is my newest nephew and my sister. Isn't he so cute?! He wanted to surprise everyone so he came 7 1/2 weeks early! We are so glad he is here and that he is doing okay. It's tough not being able to see him because they don't live here, but I get daily updates on how he's doing. He looks so sweet in all the pictures my sis has sent. We love you sis and will continue to keep you both in our prayers.
