Best. Day. Ever.

So my shower was awesome. If you couldn't be there, then I'm sorry, cause it was probably in the top 3 out of the greatest days of my life. I'm so thankful to have gotten so many wonderful gifts!!! So now, I have to cook, clean, and bake since I got all new stuff.

You have to understand that a lot of the things we had up until this point were other people's old things that they didn't want anymore, so getting things that we actually picked out and are brand new is so wonderful. It's all really quite overwhelming. I never imagined that I would have a shower let alone have one that was so awesome. Trust me, showers usually suck. I have sat through many. I may have a whole new attitude about showers now though. Regardless, I am so grateful that the people in my life love me enough to do all of this for me.

I'm gonna try to post some pics this week, I finally got to meet my new cousin Jake so I wanna get some of those pics up here too.

June!?

So time is flying!! Baseball is in full swing and poor Zion's arm is in a cast. He is being such a good sport about it though- carrying out his duty as bat boy. Donnie's xbox is getting repaired so it has been a hard summer for him as well. We are estimating at least another 2 weeks before it comes back from xbox headquarters in Texas. Needless to say, checkers on the back porch has become highly competitive. I recently became the PTG vice president at Holy Redeemer school where Zion will attend kindergarten in the fall. This will probably take up a lot of my "free" time. Noah is going to a new school (public) this year, so keep your fingers crossed for him...and for me, not sure if I'll be able to be on 2 parent teacher committees. There has been so much change for our kids this year!! It's unbelievable that we are keeping it all together! My shower is coming up this weekend and I'm really looking foreward to it. Maybe I'll post some pics...ya never know.

Wedding update

Just thought I would let you know, we did block rooms off at the Comfort Inn in New Castle for the night of our wedding. We added the link for their website on the lower right portion of the screen. I believe you need to book by July 1, 2009 and mention our wedding to get the room at a discounted rate. There are also links there for the Church and The New Englander for those of you who are out of town and aren't sure of the locations. The shower is this coming Saturday and we are getting really excited. We are truly blessed to have such wonderful families and friends!!! If you have any questions or need directions, please feel free to email us at www.donnieandcarla@gmail.com
