19 weeks of pure bliss!

Well Hello! Life has been insane the past month to put it mildly.. I thought for sure I had blogged 2 weeks ago, but alas.. its been 4?! I guess that means I'm busy enjoying this life that God has blessed me with. So let me give you an update on the past MONTH! (i'll try to keep it short and sweet)
May 14, 2012 <3

I finished my spring semester, miraculously! It was one of the most trying, exhausting, rewarding semesters of my life and I am so happy to see it go. I learned alot, made quite a few new friendships, and enjoyed another few months of marriage to my wonderful husband. I drove home on the 13th to watch one of my beautiful best friends get married on the 14th! Yes, we share an anniversary, how cool! Then rushed back up to Fort Collins (with a little detour to L&Ls Hawaiian BBQ) to spend our 1 year anniversary evening with Jason. I came bearing Lau Lau and Spam Musubi and wedding cake. All of which was absolutely delicious, and we reminisced everything that has happened in the past year. It has been a year packed full of blessings which I will touch on later.
Musubi and Wedding Cake!!


Congratulations Mr. & Mrs. Moore!

Jason spent that week finish up his mind numbing semester of Financial Planning classes. Thursday though was the beginning of a much needed adventure! We drove to Westcliffe and spent the night there. Friday we got up bright and early, loaded into my little 1999 subaru forester and headed for Texas. After a long day of driving we arrived in Grapevine, TX and spent the next day seeing long lost friends from YWAM and watching the lovely Jenna and Noah tie the knot! It was a beautiful wedding!




Sunday we drove to Willis, TX and spent a fun afternoon with the best of the best, Ms. Brittany! We played some glow golf, which was -top notch-, ate pork chops, and relaxed for the evening. It was so awesome to see her lovely face and family after about 5 months!!

Monday bright and early we hit the road for Ray City, GA... 15 hours of driving later we had crossed Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida and Georgia. We spent the next 5 days with my Alissa and Brian, exploring Georgia and Florida. We made our way to the beach one day, Jacksonville, a beautiful mansion, and a winery (I ate the gold fish snacks!). It was such a wonderful time to hang out with them! And Koa thoroughly enjoyed 5 days of pure bliss spent with Abby (their black lab) in the back yard and the kiddie pool. As we drove away Sunday morning headed back to Colorado, Koa and Abby were both super depressed and refused to eat or play for the next few days:( Poor heart broken puppies..

On our drive back we made a 16 hour leg of the trip on day one, stopping for lunch in Nashville to meet some more friends from YWAM, Andrew and Madison! That day we ventured through Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky, Illinios, and Missouri. The final day of traveling we drove through Missouri, Iowa, Nebraska, and finally Colorado! It was a top notch trip but it is good to be home as well. 14 states later we arrived safely in my trusty little car..what a trouper. We put almost 4000 miles on that thing!

Now that we are back, I've been going to class.. Yes, summer class. I'm taking 10 credits this summer between one class at CSU and 2 online classes. But i'm doing it all in hopes that when I have to finish up class in the spring, I will only have to take 2 classes, which means less time away from Baby Frink! Speaking of Baby Frink....

It's a BOY!
He is still doing wonderful.. A big healthy baby weighing in at about 9 oz. at 19 weeks (average is 8.5). And yes, I did say HE!! Yesterday we finally had our ultrasound and we got to see and find out that we are expecting a handsome little man! While doing the ultrasound he was basically doing gymnastics.. flipping around, punching, kicking, and even sucking his thumb. We are both absolutely IN LOVE and can not wait to meet our little guy:) We went and bought him an adorable pair of BLUE slippers and a onsie. Can not wait to see him in it:)

As for me, I'm feeling wonderful at the moment! Headaches have decided to plague me for some odd reason, but it is totally worth it for our little man. Also pregnancy brain as gone to a whole other level in the past few weeks. Jason had to have asked me 10 times to check if we had Insanity on my computer, and every time I forgot.. oops! Luckily I have an understanding husband:) Other than that, my bump is expanding and so is my heart for our little guy!
19 Weeks!!

Sorry for the drawn out novel, but I guess this is what I get for cramming 4 weeks into one post. Hope you all are having a wonderful summer! xoxo
