Hawaii!!

At the end of January we had the opportunity to visit Hawaii with the Solverson's for a bit of much needed R & R. This was a wonderful vacation! We snorkeled and I took that picture of the turtle underwater, Dave showed us his skills in surfing, and we just enjoyed the scenery and sunshine ( my personal favorite!)

Winter Recap

So it has been too long since I posted. ekkk... that is no good. Here are some pics that recap our winter. My brother graduated from NIU College of Engineering with his Master's and we threw him a party, my friend Kelly is getting married this spring and was in town for her bridal shower. We went sledding and got an insane amount of snow.

On a more somber note, I had my third misscarriage and D & C this winter. There was nothing wrong with this baby either, so in February I went to a fertility specialist who thinks I am low in hormones and will try this with me next time I am pregnant. This was a very trying time for me, but I know the Lord makes no mistakes in what he gives us and that has been a small encouragement to me.
