Cool frosty branches in Craig.

Wes' parents house in Craig for Christmas - the frost was absolutely picturesque. So calm and peaceful.



Merry Christmas! We celebrate with joy the birth of our Savior this season!
This picture starts off the newest adventure in our lives - Wes finding out we are going to have a baby.

I found out on November 9 and took two tests before Wes got home...just to make sure. I wrapped up the positive tests inside a onesie that said "Good Things Come in Small Packages". I then put those in a cookie canister. When Wes got home I said, "I got this package of cookies at school today and was really shocked when I opened it, I want you to open it and see what you think." Wes thought it was one of those trick canisters that the springy snakes jump out of...but when he opened it...he found something different! His first reaction after opening the onesie was, "Really ?!" and I exclaimed, "Yes!". Thank you Jesus for this new, exciting, journey!
Wes - posing with our baby to be's first onesie. Proud Daddy!


Good things come in small packages! Praise the Lord for the blessing of this new journey and new life!

1st Belly Photo! This was the night we found out I was pregnant! November 9.


1st day of knowing! I think about 5 weeks along.

11 weeks.
9 Weeks!


Thanksgiving in Windsor at Rebecca's parent's house.

Mom, Chelle, and Becs. What lovely ladies!
Wes and I and my parents enjoyed visiting with my grandparents after Thanksgiving. We were thrilled to share the news of our growing bundle of joy!


Telling Rachelle and Tony that we are pregnant! Auntie Rachelle giving me a great big sister hug!


"Say Cheese" - "Say, Rebecca's pregnant!" Mom and Dad's reaction to our news! Beautiful moment.



So, here's Uncle Josh (re-enacting his surprise face) when he figured out we were pregnant and he was going to be an uncle. Wes drew him a cartoon to break the news, but I had turned off the camera because he was taking so long to figure it out... Thanks for re-enacting the face!



Sharing the news with Wes' parents. They were the first family members to find out! They look a little confused about what just took place! Wes said "Say cheese; say Rebecca's pregnant!" Super happy for us when they realized we weren't joking!
