It's about time I jumped on this bandwagon :) We are coming up on some very exciting times in our life. In about a month we should be meeting our very first child! Very exciting!!! Which actually gave me something to blog about instead of "I go to work and Jake goes to school".
So this post is a catch up post. I'll post a few pics and a few blurbs about them and call it good :)
Here goes!
The Foutz Family is serious about their baked goods. Everything is supposed to be made from scratch and Jake LOVES his pies.
This is my first attempt at a pie and I decided to do this at 8 mos prego! Not completely from scratch since I used pumpkin pie filling from a can along w/ other ingredients, but I even made the crust myself! It was even edible!!!! I've talked w/ Bob (Laurie Foutz my MIL) and she's given me some pointers and my SIL Crystal makes an awesome crust, I'm hoping she'll share her recipe w/ me!
This is Baby Girl Foutz at 23 weeks. We think she's going to be quite a bit like her Dad, she's got Jake's eyes, nose and mouth we think....I don't know what she will have of mine :)3D ultrasounds are amazing!
This is at my baby shower on Nov. 8, 2008 I have a bow on my belly. All my Sisters and SIL's will recognize that pregnant girl sit LOL!
It was a good time for sure. I did feel pretty silly getting tired opening presents! Who would have thought that would be strenuous!
This is our 2nd Anniversary trip, we went to Turtle Bay (http://www.turtlebay.org/) and this is us in the Shasta Caverns and we also stopped and saw a local waterfall (that pic didn't turn out, we forgot our digital camera so this is from a disposable)
Jake planned the whole thing, I'd been wanting to go to both places for a long while, especially turtle bay! Isn't Jake cute! I was about 6.5 mos prego here.
This is Jake and his Dad (Steve) when they went for a motorcycle ride together.
One of the few breaks Jake got from school on a weekend.
He works really hard all day and most of every Saturday too on his schooling. I'm pretty proud of him!
This is our visit to SLC Temple so that Darrell and Gel and Collin and Brody could be sealed as a family for time and all eternity!
What a great trip. We were very happy to be able to be a part of their family's special day!
And this is what started it all. We were sealed for time and all eternity on Sept. 8, 2006 in the Sacramento, CA temple.
This is at our reception in Merlin, OR on Sept. 9, 2008.
In the background is Jake's truck, his very first car which he and his Dad with some help from me and my Dad rebuilt in about 32 days after it was run into a tree, just so it could be our "getaway truck".
So much has happened this year, but for now this is where I will leave it. Our next blog will be about something new that has happened from today forward. I can tell this is going to be fun!

I'll be your very first comment, how exciting! I'm so glad you are following our blog, not that it's that exciting, but now I can keep an eye on you guys. It was great to see you at your baby shower, thanks again for inviting me.
And addicting...don't forget addicting! I love my blog. I'm sure you'll get just as much out of yours! Looking good...I'll be spying on you from now on. ;)
I love pictures! And you posted tons, thanks! I love looking at the great milestones of your life. You will never regret having a blog. And yes, as Amber said, it's addicting, very.
You might find yourself throughout the day saying "ooooh, that would be great for our blog!" And then catch yourself wording it in your mind. You'll have months where you blog tons, and ones that you don't.
If you want, I can help you design your blog... I just have to get my software back (the computer crashed!).
