why i haven't blogged so much....

well here i am almost 7 months prego...just getting bigger and bigger....i will tell you, she is moving all over the place!! so i don't sleep a whole lot at night!

i have been working on crocheting a baby blanket. it takes a lot of time. it isn't hard, just time consuming. so when i am home, i have been trying to get these squares done. but as soon as this is finished, i will be back to life and blogging more.

ft bragg and tahoe

this is ben and i in tahoe. we went this year for ben's dad's 60th birthday. it was really fun. Except for the fact that Dan(ben's dad) couldn't stay. He has a heart condition, and it high elevations, he can't breathe very well. we thought it wouldn't be that bad in tahoe, but it was. so next year, we are definately going to have to stay near sea level. other than that, it was fun. all of bens extended family was there. Lanell, ben's sister rented a house with like6 bedrooms. it was nice to have a bed to sleep in.

in june we went camping...this is ben and i on the beach! it was really fun. we went camping with our friends niki and cevin, and ian and amanda. it was fun to go with friends that were couples. definately a yearly tradition!
