Pregnancy

I'm almost 18 weeks pregnant! I have been feeling the baby move. It is so amazing. I have my ultrasound May 26.

Fundraising Bears

Yesterday Dave asked me if the company that makes the bears manufactures only for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. I said no and started listing all the charities they include. He then asked me about PETSA (pronounced pizza). I asked him what that was and he said "People for the Ethical Treatment of Stuffed Animals". My husband is sooo funny. So now we are going to tell people they can adopt a bear for $10 from PETSA. All proceeds will still go to the LLS!!

Quilts

My sisters and mom made me a lovely wedding quilt, and Danae made a lovely one for me as well! I am so honored and touched by their hard work and love! Dave likes the quilts too :).

Our Marriage Ceremony

Oh yes!!!

I just remembered I have a blog. Don't give up hope. I may just create a real post sometime soon.

My birthday and other exciting things

First things first!! I'm engaged to David Scott! I'm marrying him August 3rd!!! I'll write more about that later. I quickly want to post this picture of cake. I came home with two pieces yesterday. Kelly made it for me and my class for my birthday. Delicious lemon pound cake. Just today, I was in Kelly's class telling everyone I was so excited to come home and eat the cake. They didn't know this, but I didn't come home last night, so I wasn't around to feed Mario breakfast. He took matters into his own hands and raided my cake!!

More later. I'm in a hurry to go clean up my house!!

Countess Dracula

Caroline and I were at a concert at a church where her nephews were performing. We sat down for an informal photo session. When I saw this one I said, "I look like Dracula!" That was my immediate thought, but I didn't know why!!!! Upon more careful observation, we noticed my coat collar. My severe hairdo doesn't help either. Now I just need to photoshop the collar on the other side.
