Sunny Saturday

We took a drive to a small lake nearby for some golf (for Dustin) and a nice outdoor dinner by the lake. Loving the Erie summer weather that's for sure.

India

Taj Mahal

Riding a camel. No big deal.

Dustin and his colleagues.

Skinny cows blocking the road

Some of the local cuisine

Pretty hotel

Lots of Travels

Well it's been a fun and crazy few weeks here.

Dustin went to China and India for a business trip for two full weeks. Among meetings with suppliers and travel time, he was able to squeeze in a little sightseeing. More pictures of that to come!View of Shanghai from Dustin's hotel.

Well the last thing I wanted to do was stay in Erie by myself while Dustin was away, and over the Fourth of July at that. So I decided to fly to San Diego to meet up with my family on their vacation. It was so fun and the beach weather was perfect.

We had our fun, and things are now back to normal with life and work. We are both still getting back to our normal time zones (especially Dustin who had a 12 hour time change, poor guy)

More CA pictures to come as well.

Happy Father's Day Dad

Couldn't of asked for a better father. He is funny, smart, and a great example of hard work, faith, and a good attitude. He even started a little blog of his own. http://standingallamazed.blogspot.com/

Happy Fathers Day to all of you fathers out there.

It's a Girl

We had our sonogram yesterday to find out the sex of the baby. I'm not going to lie, I was sort of hoping that it was going to be a girl, and Dustin also said if he could choose he would want a girl first too. So we were both pretty excited when we got the news!

The ultrasound tech said she was sucking her little thumb.

I couldn't wait any longer to buy some cute stuff for our little girl. So we went last night and scored some great deals on these cute little items.

20 weeks. Half way there!

Memorial Day Weekend

We had a fun, jammed packed weekend with Dustin's family. We were grateful to all of them for making the drive our way from Missouri and New Jersey. During our family weekend we went to Palmyra NY...

And Niagara Falls...

Played on the shore of Lake Erie....

And went to Kirtland Ohio, among many other things...

Such a great weekend. Thanks Sherwoods for the good times.

I guess it's time for an Update

Yes, I realize that I have yet to blog since we have been in Erie. I guess it is due to more than one factor like pure laziness, lack of exciting things to post about and the fact that I have not been feeling so good because we are expecting a little baby!

We are very exciting for this new chapter in our lives and can't wait for the little one to come in October. We find out the sex in about 2 weeks.

Since we have been here Dustin has been super busy at GE, but is really liking his job. I have found a job in a salon but I am still waiting for my cosmetology license to transfer which is taking forever.

I flew Seattle for a week right after we moved to Erie to visit the family and I actually had to pay for the plane ticket! Bummer! Also not having a major airport in the area is quite a drag.

We took a trip to Cleveland to visit our friends Justin and Stacey before they moved away for good to Mississippi.

We celebrated our 5 year wedding anniversary and my 25th birthday in the last few weeks with low key dinners out, but unfortunately no pictures. Not only have I been bad at blogging but I have taken a hiatus from my camera.

The weather has improved and the snow finally melted. We have actually had some really nice days here and there the past few weeks.

We have a fun Memorial Day weekend planned with family so hopefully there will be pictures to come.
