2009 Sheppard Air Show

Just so you all know i posted a new blog on our blog! It takes forever to upload pics and write so thats why I always just upload on our blog! To get to our blog if you go under contributors (before the Bird days) and click on M&M and then click on The Birds (there is 2 of them that say The Birds its the first one) our blog will pop up! Matt and I had such a fun 3 day weekend! We went to see the air show and bought a new Labtop! The new labtop was desperetly needed we were useing a 6 yr old Toshiba!! Now we can use the interenet at a speed faster then dial up times!!

More of the Girls

Just calm and enjoying the sun while the big girls take a nap.

This is Marie's favorite position in the afternoon. We need to work on burping at night so her tummy is not so upset during the day.

Maren and Lily never seem to get enough of sweet little Marie. Everywhere I put her they find a way to come give more loves.

Fall Fun!!

Matt and I have been up to a lot of fun things I posted new stuff on our blog and we even bought a new car!! You should check out our blog and you can see lots of pictures of what we have been up to and our new car!

Bertha Marie Hansen

We finally named her. Yeah! Here are a few of the fun pics of the week. You will all have to take a trip to Louisville if you want to see some more. We sure are happy to have Mom and Dad here. I think Dad needs a few more things to keep him occupied though. The girls love to see the baby and always want to touch her. Maren loves to swipe Hannah's binki and Lily wants to hold her and touch her soft hair.

So in the course of the week this sweet little ones name has changed several times. We have decided now and her name is Bertha Marie. We will call her Marie and Love it.

Tid-bit of summer

We made progress.  We got all the stucco done and painted, all the new windows are in, all the old kitchen cabinets out.  The list of things to do is GRADUALLY getting shorter.  I told James we'd better get it done soon cuz he ran out of brothers to come help.  :0)

A quick family shot before church.  Tyler was handy to have around.   And here is Mommy's big helper!  He watched me paint for two days and I guess he figured he knew what he was doing by then.  While I was concentrating on a small brush area (up the big orange ladder) he grabbed my mini-roller and went to town.  Nothing a little more paint couldn't fix!

Fair

We played from about 3 til 9 and walked the whole fair grounds about 3 times. It was lots of fun to see the shows and watch the girls get so excited to see the different animals. Maren was trying so hard to reach the goats through the fences and Lily was a little too brave to go up to the cows and pet them whenever she wanted. I have had a few contractions but not any labor yet. I will probably just have sore legs and still be tired tomorrow. It was a fun family day.

Fun update

So I just thought I would let everyone know that Matt is doing amazing! Hes been busy working out, playing with plains, studying, and taking tests! I have to say I'm so very proud of him! He has not failed any of the tests he has had to take! he took his final this morning and passed with flying colors! Hes done so well he has not scored anything under and 85%!!! He is one of the few guys who have not been put on mandatory study! Even though he has not been put on mandatory study he still studies for at least 2-3 hrs a day!! I am so proud of him for being very organized and committed to his studies! He is now done with the classroom part and can now move on to the fun playing with the plain part! He has had some fun already playing in flight simulators and playing around with tools. We had a fun weekend playing in Dallas this past weekend. We stayed in the most lavish hotel i have every stayed in and played at six flags! We had a ton of fun celebrating are 3 year anniversary at a delicious seafood restaurant and enjoying are hotel over looking the city! I'm sad to leave Matt again but am very excited its only short term!! I cant wait to come back and live close to him and be able to see him every day!!

Having some fun at stake and shakes!!!=)
