The Happy Dance

So Maddy has started this crazy feet happy dance and it's pretty hilarious, to her and to us. She started doing it during the Super Bowl and I finally got it on video! Enjoy :)

BABY!

Yep it's true, we're expecting! I'm gonna save the due date for later in the post. Last year turned out to be quite difficult for us, I had a miscarriage in June and discovered I had an ovarian cyst. The cyst had to be removed surgically; the ovary could not be saved. It was difficult to say the least. We have waited to tell people for this reason, it's hard on both parties when a miscarriage is in conversation. I don't think either person really knows what to say, and words don't really comfort anyway. I will be 12 weeks tomorrow, nearing the end of the first trimester. I had my surgery on August 27th which is my exact due date! I call that the faithfulness of God my friends! Celebrate with us and keep us in your prayers!

Super Bowl

Just in case you've been hiding under a rock.....WE ARE GOING TO MIAMI FOR THE SUPER BOWL! I have not really ever been an NFL fan, mostly just stuck with my beloved Georgia Bulldogs. I've tried in vain several times before to explain the Saints vortex to my family and friends. You move here, you get sucked in, and before you know it, you're a crazy fan just like everyone else. A few examples: 1) On Sunday every single person on staff at our church was decked out in Saints paraphernalia, and half the congregation. 2) Out to lunch last Sunday, at least one person at every single table wearing Saints stuff. 3) Every worker at Walmart--saints. 4) I could go on, but why? you just have to be here, it's electric. The night they won the NFC, I went outside b/c people were shooting off fireworks everywhere and upon listening, I could hear people outside running around screaming. My neighbor is from here and was beyond excited. The Saints have never been to the Super Bowl in their 42 year existence , so even if you're not a fan, do us a favor and give us a little WHO DAT? on Sunday night!

Isn't she the cutest little fan you've ever seen?
