Savannah's Wedding

One of my good friends got married this past weekend! I am so happy for Savannah and Evan! It was so glad to see her and her family. I haven't seen them for a long time. I just want to say congrats to Savannah and you were a very beautiful bride! I love you and wish you the best of luck! Here are some pictures.

The happy couple

How time flies

So today is our 2nd anniversary. Its crazy how fast time flies. It seems just like yesterday we got married. These past two years have been the greatest! Craig is a wonderful husband and I would be lost without him! I am so thankful for him and everything he does. He makes me so happy and he always knows how to make me smile! He is going to be a great father.

Baby Markum is...

We found out today that we are having a BOY!!!! We are very excited!

July fun

We were able to go to a couple of Rockies games this month. The first one we went to was over the 4th. They do a great fireworks show after the game. (That is my favorite part of the game!)Then the following weekend one of Craigs mission companions invited to go to a game with them. Other than that we really haven't done anyting too exciting. Craig has been busy working and playing softball, which ended last night for them because they got beat out of the tourney. And I have been working with the school district.

Some exciting news, we get to find out what we are having on Tuesday! We are really excited.

June Happenings

Let me start with that we bought a car. It is a 2005 Trailblazer. We got it for a great deal and since Craig's lease is up on his truck in Aug. We figured it would be a good time to get a family car.

Over Father's day weekend we went up to the mountains for a little cook out. It was really fun and nice. Here are a couple of pictures of Craig and our nephews.



I went to Knoxville, Tennessee for a night to go to the National Conference for Family and Consumer Sciences. For my Flat Pattern class we had to summit our designs to be shown there. 7 of us from that class got chosen to show our garments. My teacher, me and another student were able to go. It was a quick trip. Tennessee was very beautiful and HOT!!
Other then that not much has been happening. I am feeling very good. I am surprised I haven't been sick, but I am not complaining. I am still wearing my normal clothes. But I think in the next couple of weeks that will change. Hopefully we will find out what we are having either this next appointment or the one after that!

Work, school, and....

Well both Craig and I graduated this year. Craig will actually be done with his second bachelors degree which is in chemistry, in August. He had to take the second half of Spanish this summer. (Which he hates) He is working in a Chemistry lab on campus this summer and for the next two years he will be working on his masters degree in science education. Half of his classes will be in Education and the other half will be in Chemistry. He also works for the local newspaper and fills machines and has a driving paper route that he will continue to do.
As for me I am enjoying my free time. I still work for the school district as a bus aide. School will be done June 3. Then I plan to help with summer school. I also work for the city as a scorekeeper for city league softball at night. I really enjoy it except that it gets cold at night. But it is nice because Craig plays so I get to watch him and get paid for it! I plan to work for the school district through December.
We are also moving to an apartment in August. Craig's sister and her family moved back for Graduate school and are going to be living in the house. For now we are all living together till we are able to move out.
And now for the the big news! We are going to have a baby!!!! I am 11 weeks along and my due date is Dec. 15. We are very excited and nervous for whats to come!

Graduation and my coat

It's official, I am a graduate! It is crazy to be done. I am not quite sure what to do with myself. My parents and sister and her kids were able to come down and spend the weekend with us. It was great. We had fun.
For my last sewing class (Fiber Arts) we have to make a coat, using at least four different tech. that we had learned in class. For my coat I did twin needle, beading, machine embroidery, and painted my lining. I was very excited how good my coat turned out. I looked forward to wearing it. It will be on display at the American Heritage Center all summer. We had to name our coat and I named mine My Happy Ending.





This is my lining that I painted.
