Bandera Pin Wheel Party

After a few days to recoupe from the Tennessee trip my good friend Tori threw me a shower in my hometown of Bandera. It was so beautiful. Tori, my Mom, and Tori's Mom Dianna did all of the decorations and I have to say that they outdid themselves. It was nice to see so many old faces. Here are some of the pictures. :)


This was the sign in table. To the left is a maternity picture, in the middle is my baby picture, and to the right is our wedding picture.
Here I am with her first pair of overalls!!!
Practice makes perfect! Feeding "Steele" while momma Tori mingled.

Tennessee Baby Shower-Diva Days

Well, Tennessee was amazing. I was able to meet Josh's family and spend some quality with Mims and Mo. The baby shower was a Diva Day and so much fun! For Mother's Day we fished off the dock and b-b-q'd. Josh and I hope to get back soon.

Here I am with one of the many "Tennessee" outfits we received. This "lil girl" is going to be the biggest littlest Tennessee fan ever!
Me and Nikki, Josh's cousin. We are due one week apart. We are having a girl and she is having a boy. We hope to have play dates as soon as we get back to the states.

Some of the table decorations at the shower.

The cutest "Diva" cake. It was a hat with a purse on top. The shoe was the slicer! Cute, Cute!!! :)

Tabs carved this fruit bowl. It was a huge hit and cute to boot! LOL!

Nikki, Mims, and Me at the shower.
While I was in Tennessee I was able to meet Josh's Dad's side of the family as well. It was so nice to be welcomed into the family. Unfortunately I was not able to get any pictures.
Thank you to everyone who made my stay welcoming and memorable!

Baby Showers

Well, I finally made it back home to Germany and Josh. It was a wonderful trip but I am happy to be back home. I have taken a few days to relax and now I am ready to post to the blog. Happy Blogging! :)

Baby Showers here I come!

I have two days until I leave for the states. I fly from Frankfurt to San Antonio, San Antonio to Knoxville, Knoxville back to San Antonio, and San Antonio back to Frankfurt. Just call me Traveler! LOL! I am so excited to see everyone and hope that the weather is cooperative for the time that I am there. I will post all sorts of Baby Shower pictures as soon as I get back home. :)

Missing Him...

Well, this is only my second day alone and I realize how fortunate I am to have someone so special in my life. Josh is in Vegas for training and I will leave for the states before he gets back, we will not see eachother for a whole month. It seems like an eternity, I miss you honey and am counting the days until we are both home again!

UFC Fighters at Ramstein


Well, as most of you know, Josh is a huge UFC fan. We were on Ramstein on Tuesday April 28th to take care of some paperwork and it just so happened that some of the fighters were there doing a USO Tour, Jon Fitch and Mike Swick were among them. Josh and I were able to sit down and just talk to them for about 20 minutes. It was awesome because they were very down to earth people. We got some autographs and some pictures. Here they are!

Sew,Sew,Sew...

Ok, I have been able to do a little bit (and I mean a little bit) of sewing this last week or two. Between doctors visits, job interviews, homework, and just plain living, things have been pretty hectic. Went to my first Military OB GYN visit yesterday and everything looks good. I measured 23cm from bottom to top of my uterus which puts me right on target as today I am 23 weeks. I have a ultrasound this next week and am looking forward to seeing "her" again. If I get photos I will post them asap. As far as everything else goes, Josh and I are doing great! We are looking forward to Saturday as it is the only day he has off this week. We will probably be bums and do absolutely nothing! :) Anyway...here is a picture of the 3 burp cloths I made for our "lil one". Love and Hugs to all!
