Spring Insanity

The last couple weeks have been crazy! I'll try to summarize briefly before heading to MOPS:

- Blake's last day at Purina came and went...unemployment is making him a bit uncomfortable, so we're praying he finds the right part time job soon. We're super excited about him starting school this June though, and God keeps affirming our direction!
- We roadtripped to N. Utah for my brother's wedding. We took our Big Orange Ambulance, which was an adventure (especially when the windshield wipers gave out while we were passing through a major storm system).
- Our awesome family is growing!! Rory's little sibling is due the end of Oct. beginning of Nov.! We're thrilled about this- being pregnant with #2 is an entirely different emotional experience than with the first!
- I leave for a week in WA next Thursday, con Rory pero sin Blake. We're going to visit my grandparents, who were not able to make my brother's wedding last minute.
- We have lots on our plate the next couple months: Les Miserables!!! in Phoenix, Rory's first birthday party, a wedding in Albuquerque, a camping trip with friends, a trip to Seattle in July to meet our new niecey (due the end of June), and helping with VBS.
- I was served an unpleasant mix of ideology and reality regarding illegal immigration this week- more on that later.

Here are a few pictures of the last couple weeks!

Enjoying spring

Grumpy, teething baby didn't smile much this trip

This sums up Rory's time in Utah. By the end of the trip, we weren't smiling either.
