happy anniversary

tomorrow jesse and i will celebrate our 5th wedding anniversary. time flies! and it is hard to imagine these pictures were taken just 5 years ago!

we have so many things to celebrate and be thankful for besides our marriage...

* our new house has been such a blessing. we are settling in quickly and it already feels like home. jackson loves his new yard, jacob loves having more places to walk and explore, and jesse and i love being able to sleep at night and have peace and quiet in the evenings. :)

* today i am going in for an ultrasound, and we will hopefully find out the gender of our baby, as well as check the development and other necessary things. we are so thankful for another healthy pregnancy, and are enjoying frequent reminders as the baby has become very active and i'm feeling lots of kicks and punches.

* we are so thankful for our healthy son who makes us smile every day. he is such a delight and is becoming more of a little boy with every day.

* we will both have the opportunity this month to participate in the weddings of our good friends and celebrate the gift of marriage with them. (Heidi Schuringa- my best friend from college, who is getting married next saturday; and Travis Wilson- jesse's co-worker at the Creation Museum, who is getting married on the 28th. both weddings in michigan.)

baby update to come...
