S*#% - the 4 letter S word

I looked out the window at work today and said a dirty 4 letter word that started with S. I couldn't believe it either - SNOW! It was snowing! I guess winter is here.

Weekend Visitors

Lance and I had a very nice supprise over the weekend...his Mom and Dad came to town to visit us at the apartment. They helped us move in August 2007 and hadn't made the trip south to see us again. Since we are up there every few weekends, that's not really a big deal; however, we did enjoy having a little company.

I learned one more important lesson over the weekend, all you can eat buffets are not a lot of fun while you are pregnant.

Veterans Day

Today is Veterans Day. By act of Congress, this day is set aside out of respect for and in recognition of the contributions our military service members have made to the cause of peace and freedom around the world. Our country is forever indebted to our veterans and to those who laid down their lives in freedom's defense.
I would like to say thank you to those of you who are veterans; those who have family who died in service to our country; or have family who are currently serving in military duty. On this day, may we all take time to remember the valor, loyalty, dedication and selfless sacrifice of our veterans.

May God Bless America and our Troops!

Shadow

I have been going for walks lately during my lunch hour. I came to the realization today, that even my shadow looks pregnant.
