Saline Valley

Becca, Michael, Makayla, Josh and Jodi


We just got back from our annual camping trip to Saline Valley, CA. We had a great time, as always, we enjoyed 6 absolutely beautiful sunny 75-80 degree days. Makes it hard to come back to the cold rain in Oregon. We met our friends Josh and Jodi there and took along our friends Becky and Jonah (with two kids, Adrianne and Stella). This was Becky and Jonah's first trip to the desert, but they survived. I think the actually had a good time. :o) We spent our days hiking, playing in the dirt with the kids, soaking in the tubs, playing some desert golf and just hanging out having a good time.

Our New Adventure

We ask for your thoughts and prayers as we start another adventure in our lives. We are pregnant again!! We had an early ultrasound (6 weeks) and everything looked great. We are off to a good start. Michael and I were not ready to let anyone else in on the news because of what happened last time, we needed some time to process the whole situation. After our week vacation to Saline Valley we had a scare on the way home. During the road trip I had some sudden bleeding. We went in the next day for an emergency ultrasound and everything appeared to be PERFECT once again. There isn't much of an explination for the bleeding but the doctor said that the baby looks awesome and everything is progressing just as it should.
We are 9 weeks along now. We are very anxious to get through the first trimester so that we can relax a little. We have another doctors appointment on Wednesday, Nov. 15 so we will let you know how things are going at that point.
Please keep us all in your prayers!
