Korey surprised me by booking our Babymoon trip to Anguilla. The end of the school year was so crazy busy with getting my classroom packed up that this time away couldn't have come at a better time! This was our last celebration of "us" as we prepare for our most precious of blessings coming in October.


The resort we stayed at was an amazing place called Cap Juluca.  It's a place that's been on our travel list for a while but was one that we decided we would have to save till later.  Which is why I was so surprised when Korey revealed our Babymoon location to me at the beginning of June.  It was incredible!! The majority of our time was spent relaxing on the beach and eating of course. This place is like a little beach town with amazing restaurants even off of the resort.  Definitely a "go back" kind of place!!


Not to mention....we were "STAR" struck as we saw Tori Spelling and her husband dining at the beachside restaurant and playing on the beach with their 2 kids (and one on the way too)!


It was a bitter sweet week as we know that vacations with just the two of us won't be as often anymore but we can't wait to vacation with our precious baby boy!


Here are a few photos from our Babymoon...

Gender Reveal!



So the whole reason I started this blog was to have a way to preserve memories, photos, etc. and to share with others.  So far I have failed!  The past few months have been wonderful as we have been preparing for the arrival of our precious baby! At the end of May we had our appointment that we had been waiting for!! During our ultrasound, the tech sealed our baby's gender in an envelope and off the the bakery it went! Korey and I had dinner at Flemings and then when home to cut into our tiny little cake and the next day we gave one to our family! This was such a fun way to surprise ourselves and we loved being able to share the experience with our family the next day at the beach! If you want to be surprised like we were, you can watch this video.  If not, just scroll down for a few pics.  :)




Thanks to DreamCakes for the yummy cakes!!

Baby Collins can now be referred to as a HE! :)

Korey and I couldn't be happier and are so thrilled at becoming parents. We are so thankful for the gift that God will be placing in our lives in October!  We are loving the beginning of this journey and can't wait to see what God has in store! I'm still fighting a little of fatigue but am slowly feeling my energy coming back! ! Both of our ultrasounds have been so precious! We are truly amazed at this life gift of life that God has entrusted us with and we pray that we will continue to serve Him in all that we do while preparing a home for this sweet baby.

Finally starting a blog!

Although I've never thought of myself as much of a blogger, I've always wanted to start one!  Time seemed to get in the way and although it is still in the way now, I thought I'd give it a try!  So here it is!  I am sure that it will be a slow start but am excited about this new avenue to sharing life, love, travels, AND exciting news with you!
