Engaged!


My brother, Joseph, recently got engaged to Alyssa Huber! We are so happy for them! (and so glad that we have another excuse to go back home to Maryland!) Joseph is the last out of us six kids to tie the knot. They are scheduled to be married in the Washington DC Temple. Our family is just growing like crazy! It's so fun!

Don't they make a great looking couple?

A Few Random Crafts



I was feeling a little crafty and decided to put together these lovely burp cloths. My inspiration came from my great friend Laurie who actually makes and sells these cool things....http://krissilus.blogspot.com/ Hers are very cute!



On to my next crafty thing that I made a while back....I have actually made tons of birth announcements, but these are the first I have posted to my blog. I really like how they turned out. These were done for my very cool brother and awesome sister-in-law and their adorable baby boy!



This is what my dear daughter did while I was making the birth announcements. I figure it could have been worse. She could have taken permanent marker and colored all over the wall or the white couches. We were both happy!

The Splint



Joshua goes all out when it comes to sports, there's no denying it. He pushes himself to the limit. He is our most injured player thus far and this is what he did playing football. And, yes he is a lefty. Why does he always injure the left hand? We really hope it heals quickly, so he can get some of his baseball season in. This is his second year in a row that he won't be able to put in a full season of baseball due to injury.

Since he has been injured, which has only been a day and a half, he has read a complete 700 page book. I tell you, there is no stopping this kid.
