Adopting...

Well, Mark and I have given a lot of thought and consideration about adopting. We watch Morgan and see all that she is missing by not having a sibling. LDS family services is sending us information for us to read, watch and fill out. We are looking to adopt a boy/girl that is hopefully between the ages of 1 and 3. We think it would be wonderful to have another child in the house and it would be great for Morgan to have a playmate, hince us not adopting an infant







I've been on the net a lot looking around at the different types of adoption be it out of the country, fost-adopt etc... I would actually love to adopt from Croatia because having lived there and somewhat still speak the language I feel that I'd have something to offer. Mark feels the same way about a hispanic child. Either way we are just in the beginning stages and still need to venture on to see how this works. Just thought I'd share...

Indiana Jones

Mark and I had a great time Friday evening. We went out with our friends Chuck and Jeri. We went out to celebrate Chucks birthday. Mark nor I had ever eaten at "On Broadway"... Wow!! what delicious food!! We had a great time just talkin' and eatin'. After dinner we headed over to watch Harrison, yes we're on first name basis, in his newest flick. Idiana Jones and the something about skulls.. It was good. I enjoyed it. It wasn't quite your typical Indy, at least I didn't really think so, but anything with Harrison in it is good!!!

Morgan stayed the night with Gram and Gramps Whitfield and she said she had a great time.

Oh, yes, and to top the night off Mark, after I had gone to bed, decided he needed to go to Wal-mart. Well, he got there, "accidently" ran down a tree (that's another story) and did some damage to our vehicle. We'll be calling the wrecking yards to see if we can find a silver fender and side panel... Oh the joys of life. :)



Well, Mark just got done putting Morgan down and is probably needing to get on the computer to do his church stuff... so Adios for now!

Date Night!

Mark and I finally had a date! Let me just tell you it's been a long time. My old friend Travis and his wife Lisa invited us to their house for dinner etc.. It was great!! They have this very cute fixer-upper. They live in an old mining town and their house is made of old brick and looks like it's still inhabited by miners. The decorations of course are way more modern, but the rustic feel is totally awesome!! they live about 15 minutes from Helena in a town I didn't even know existed!! we had a blast and plan on getting together more often..

Silly Boy!


Well, today is my two week point...I set a reward plan for every two weeks that I attend the gym 6 days in row. My reward for today was to buy a cute beach towel so I can have a nice one for the cruise this September. I told Mark we could go ahead and use that as a Mothers day gift. He and Morgan went to run errands and before leaving he asked what kind of towel I wanted. I told him a big one with no pastels and that was fairly heavy and not a "light-weight". They came home with a pastel yellow sheet bath towel. Yes, a huge pastel bath towel.. He and Morgan were so excited and all I could do was shake my head...

Well, Mark went out fishing caught 5 fish, which is absolutely amazing! Anyhow, I think he might have felt bad about the towel and this time he came home with a timex Ironman watch...Silly boy, I mentioned the other day that I needed to take a watch to the gym so I can rest a full minute between reps... I was thinking like one of those cheap, less than 10 bucks ones... he is soooo funny!!!

The Gym

Well I started body for life... My Dad totally kicks my butt!!! He wasn't able to make it this morning so I had to do my own kickin' and boy am I sore!! I must have been a sight seeing me listening to my mp3 while the T.V on the treadmill had Dora on so Morgan could stand next to me and watch it...

I'm really lovin' this new gym in town it has the most awesome equipment!...and it doesn't break the bank to go there either...
