Happy Easter!

It's a...........

We went to the doctor on Friday, March 30th for an ultrasound.  At that point we were 18 weeks. 

We found out we're having a boy!!!!

No names have been finalized yet. We are soooo happy about our little boy and thankful for a healthy pregnancy so far!  I'll try and post some ultrasound pictures soon.

Charity Gala

Kid One is a charity that helps kids get to needed doctor appointments.  A lot of families don't have a vehicle or one that currently works. 

Did you know that 16.6% of Alabamians lived below the poverty line according to the 2009 Census Data?  That means that 25.8% of children lived in households below the poverty line. (Poverty line = $22,050 for a year for a family of 4 or $10,830 for an individual for a year)

So, enough education for today, but I say all that to say.... A lot of people are less fortunate than us.  I hope we all keep that in perspective. We are richly blessed... in jobs, friends, and family!

Here are a few pictures from the Gala we attended.  To raise money there was a live auction, silent auction, and a plated dinner.  We had a lot of fun with friends for a good cause!
