Aberdeen “Heat Wave”
Posted in Uncategorized on July 25, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
We have had GLORIOUS summer weather here the past few days… sunny skies, low humidity, temperatures in the mid to upper 70’s. It has been quite funny to hear the locals talk about the current weather trends however… one would think that it the temperatures were spiking around the mid 100’s!!! Words like “roasting”, ”boiling”, and [...]
Date night

What a gift. Our friends James and Allison treated us to a night out this past Wednesday night, and it was great! They really wanted to give Kent and myself some “grown-up” time before baby comes, and we quickly jumped on the offer. Originally we were going to get a ride from James to any restaurant [...]
The Nesting Game…

I am officially nesting!!! The hospital bag is packed, our shower is bleached, the closets organized, a few meals prepared and frozen, and baby stuff that has been handed down to us is EVERYWHERE… now it is time to be patient and WAIT.
Although our actual due date is August 2, because Hannah came 10 days early [...]
A change in tune…

At first the sights and sounds of the white-bodied birds fascinated us and seemed to add to the “charm” of Aberdeen as much as the beach, the granite buildings, and the skyline. We were intrigued. We loved to watch them hover and soar along the breeze, and their calls seemed like our very own “beach [...]
Beach Babes

The weather was calling for a gloriously sunny and warm day, and when Emma called to see if I wanted to take Hannah along with them to the beach for the morning I just HAD to cancel my “errands” that were on the docket for the day and join them! I am SO glad we [...]

I am not especially thrilled with this picture, but until I am able to get another to replace it I thought I would let you get a quick glimpse anyway… just direct your attention to the ever expanding waist only. (:
37 weeks!!! WOW! It is hard to believe that at any time this baby could come. [...]
4th of July
Posted in Uncategorized on July 10, 2008 | 1 Comment »
The idea began as we were sitting around the kitchen table talking with the Merricks about the fact that it is officially summer, and the things that typically signal the start of summer just aren’t the same here in Aberdeen: hot weather, summer foods, and the 4th of July. We decided right there that we needed to have [...]
Poppy and Grammy’s Visit

I am a bit embarrassed that I am just now getting to write about a few memories which were made when Kent’s parents were here to visit… I guess a month later is better than never right?!?
One of the fun places we visited were the Pitmeeden Gardens which is just a short drive outside of Aberdeen. We were blown away by [...]
A perfect evening…

It was one of those nights that you wished would never end…friends (Allison and James Merrick) over for dinner (homemade pizzas, compliments of Allison), great fellowship, and lots of laughter. I think what made it extra special was our drive after dinner down to the beach. The sun had chased the clouds away while we were [...]
