Less than 2 weeks until Emily stops for working for the time being...
It's crazy how much God can change your life away from what you thought was "the" plan. Emily and I are getting so excited to see what he has in store for us over the next few months. I have found that with Hudson on the way and adding to Emily and I getting married last year and then all of the new and amazing changes that have happened in our lives that my prayer time, my thoughts, my worries, and the things that Emily and I are excited about are 100% completely different every day! Not gonna lie... it does help having an amazing spouse to go through life changes with!
This summer has been exciting! We went to Colorado for the 4th of July for Emmy Jo and Garrets wedding! It was a lot of fun and good for Emily because she got to have a good long weekend with her college girl friends!
We then left for a 11 day vacation to the north east United States. Emily and I left on a Thursday and went to Boston by ourselves for 2 days. It was amazing! Emily and I had so much fun together just the two of us. We have made a committment to each other to do as much as possible this summer just the two of us before our life does a 360 in September. We went to Fenway Park on Thursday night and saw the Red Sox play the Orioles.
Fenway was AMAZING!!!!! It is a baseball fans dream.. all of the history and the atmosphere. That Friday morning Emily and I went back to Fenway and took a full tour. It was really neat hearing about the history of the Red Sox and Fenway Park.
The rest of that day we just toured Boston. My 30 week, at the time, prego wife was a champ... or in her words she was clutch! We walked a long way and saw a lot of things and she just chugged along! Even though I just think she was determined because she knew the end of the day was going to be made up of food from Quincy Market!!!
Saturday morning we rented a car at the airport where we met the rest of Emily's family and drove to Lake Winnipesaukee NH. We spent a week there with Emily's grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins. It was a blast. We fished, we ate, kayaked (definitely a funny story there that envolved me flipping the kayak and almost dying), we jet skid, tubed behind a boat, hiked, had a ping pong and horseshoe tournament, ate some more, explored the city, slept and then ate some more.
Emily had fun because her and Hudson got all sorts of attention!
The whole fam in NH!!!
Last Sunday, Emily had her first Baby Shower!!!! We had a couples shower at Brad and Mindy's house with our friends from First Baptist. It was amazing. They did so much for us. Shannon cooked some amazing food and everyone gave us some nice gifts. We have been so blessed to have this group of friends during our first year or marriage! It has been such a God send...
