Could I have taken any longer to update?

The answer is...YES!
ATTENTION TO ALL: April 28,2007 is my wedding day!!!!! Please, please save the date so you can come and join in my unforgettable day. The wedding is going to be very simple and small, but I so want everyone to be there. I promise my face will be glowing - you may want to bring sunglasses =) haha. We haven't decided on the time, but we are only having a cake reception. Not just the same old cake you can find anywhere though...I'm more creative and fun than that!
You will simply have to come join the celebration to find out the variety of shapes, flavors, colors, and who knows what else I'll throw in there.

The plan used to be that Mady and I would be moving to Ohio in October or November, however, there has been a new twist to the planning. Now, Rob is accepting a youth pastor position at a church in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Before the whole job is settled on, the church people would like to meet me...yikes! Can't say I've ever been the deciding factor on my guy's job =) haha! No, I think they just want to meet the wife-to-be that will be helping their youth pastor to make sure she is worthy of the man. Most likely.
I will be flying to Ohio September 22. Rob and I will make the 3 hour drive to Fort Wayne and do some apartment and job hunting (for me) then spend some time with the church people on Sunday. I will then fly back home Tuesday. I am leaving Mady with the family since it will be such a quick trip of here and there. So I will have to update you all on the details once I find out more myself.

If all goes as planned, Rob will be visiting me for about a week and a half in October. He will be taking advantage of the time between jobs =) During this time, I am hoping that many of you will be able to meet my husband-to-be and see what an amazing man I am going to marry.

Mady is still getting taller...thanks to her dad she probably will tower over me by the age of 5! ha! She is talking more and more, and is awake from her nap as I type. So, once again, this post will be cut short. Mady is doing great, as you can see from the pictures, and is cuter than ever.
I will post more about the things she is doing soon...ok, as soon as I can. Doesn't mean it will be within the next week, or even two. LOL!!!

Jason and Makenzie Caine

I worked with Makenzie way back in high school at the drive-in, "Cedar Inn," here in Blue Earth. Makenzie is such a sweetheart and her husband, Jason, seems to be just as nice.
I was able to attend their wedding in June, right before leaving for Ohio.
The wedding was gorgeous, even though the weather was not for the first part of the day. Rain, rain, go away, come again some other day...was the thought of many people waiting in their cars and under anything to keep them dry.
Congratulations Jason and Makenzie!

Climbing in!

Mady decided that the cooler looked just her size. She climbed on in and tried to zip herself safely into place.

Playtime with mommy and daddy

A variety of Mady being cute pictures.

The Photo Shoot

Mady posed all on her own. All these pics were taken within maybe 5 minutes. She's my little model.
I wonder where she gets all those facial expressions from...hmmm. hehehe!

Finally an update!!!

Here are some more pics from our trip so it's not a really recent update, but at least there will be new pics on the site. Sorry about that guys. My wedding planning has taken precedence over updating blogs =) Hmmm, I wonder why. The pic of the 3 of us is funny and I love it. We were all trying to squeeze in and I was trying tohold it up high enough to get all of us in. Not to mention trying to keep Mady on my lap and looking up at the camera. Lol. We had fun.
