A New Addition

I am so very excited to finally announce that Tyson and I are expecting! God has blessed us with an amazing little gift that I have been so excited to tell the world about. I will be 12 weeks on Thursday, which seems hard to believe already. We broke the news to the families and close friends on Saturday and Sunday which made for an exciting and memorable weekend. My due date is September 13th, my favorite time of the year! We will have our next appointment on Monday the 5th and am hoping for another ultrasound so I can see our ever growing bundle of joy and include it in the next post!

Happy Valentine's Day!

As I was walking through HyVee today getting groceries I was amazed to see that all of the Valentine's Day candy had vanished and in it's place was Easter everything! Valentine's Day is just another day for Tyson and I, however we do make an attempt to get out of the house to enjoy other peoples cooking. This year Tyson made reservations at Traditions Inn here in Columbus. We have never been there before and were surprised when we were able to get a reservation on Valentine's Day. It is a local bed & breakfast that proudly serves Certified Angus Beef (loooovvveee). We enjoyed homemade bread and a cheese board for our appetizer along with a ceaser salad and tomato basil soup. We both opted for the medium rare prime rib with tri colored potatoes and steamed vegetables for our main course and finished the meal with strawberries romanoff and triple chocolate raspberry cake. The food was amazing and we will be sure to go back again, and especially wear stretchy pants! I also received these beautiful flowers from my mom, she is the greatest!

Besides Valentine's Day we have just been working and enjoying our time together. We still have a lot of snow but a few warm days are coming which will hopefully make some of it disappear. I am ready for Spring, however I am very thankful for the mild winter we have had so far. Tyson is getting geared up for his poker tournament he is hosting on March 10th in his shop. I was informed last night that the numbers are already up to 20-30 guys. I think I will spend that day shopping in Omaha or getting a massage as 20-30 drinking men playing cards doesn't sound all that appealing to me. I hope everyone had a wonderful Valentine's Day!
