I really thought I could keep up with this month of posts, but the month really got away from me. Here's to finish up the month. We'll have to skip the pics this time too.
Day 26: My mom's parents. I wish I had a picture of them. I can't believe I don't. I really need to get copies of family pictures from my parents house. My Grandpa was hilarious. He'd always have gum. Always. And if we'd like a piece of gum too, we had to ask, "Can I have some gum Chum?" It cracked us up. He would also stand next to the piano when I'd play and he'd do a little dance to the music. He passed away when I was 12. I'm so glad I was old enough to know him. My Grandma was a classy lady. She was such a good dresser. She grew up on a farm and couldn't wait to move to the big city. She always made the BEST food. She passed away about 6 months after Keith and I were married. I can tell that my Grandma & Grandpa were an adorable couple. They loved to entertain and go to parties. There's lots of pictures of them dressed up for different parties. And they loved their girls. They got married a little later than most, and couldn't have kids for many years. They did eventually have two girls though, and gave them all the attention and love anyone could ask for.
Day 27: The picture that Keith and I got for our anniversary. We'd really been wanting to get a large painting of Christ for our home for a long time now. We didn't ever really agree on one though, until we saw this painting. We each saw it on separate trips to Deseret Book. When we realized that we both liked the same painting we were really excited and decided to get it for our 5th Anniversary. We went to get it and the frame was totally damaged. Bummer! There weren't any others in Arizona. Then as we were driving to go get some dinner we remembered Seagull Book. Totally forgot about that store. They had it and it was in perfect shape and it was on sale! Hooray!
Day 28: And FINALLY the last day..... We're expecting a baby the first week of October! Holy cow! I'm so excited, but so terrified of having a newborn in the home again. So that's the real reason I've been behind on things. I've had a lot of rough days these past couple weeks with not feeling too great. Tonight I feel okay though, and so I took advantage of it and cleaned my whole house. After all, it might not happen again for a while. I love this new little person whom I can't wait to meet!
