Chicarrones

On my last trip to Billings Montana I found the 8th wonder of the world, microwavable pork rinds or Chicarrones! I didn't buy them at the time, but when an employee came out he brought a couple of packages and I HAD to try it out. It was a most interesting experience and that is all it will stay is an experience. My co-worker who used to work on a farm says that they are better than store bought exactly as they used to taste when they cooked them up fresh on the farm. I will take his word for it, maybe Ellie can taste them and tell me if that is true.

Nursery is done

We finished the nursery this weekend. We hung up the alphabet cards around the top of the room and now are just waiting to find out what we are having so we can replace the drapes with something more gender specific.
Thanks to Rachael and her mom for coming to help Susannah organize the room earlier this week. Hillary the growth chart is great, but only goes up to 6 feet you must expect it to take after Susannahs side of the family. =) Gracie and Ellie the turtle mobile makes the crib look great.

Microwavable goodness

Yes you are seeing this picture right, Microvable Pork Rinds. I saw these in Montana and told my co-worker to bring a couple of packets when he came over this week. Well here they are the Chicarrones!

Baby Shower

This past weekend my dear friends Aarin and Rachel threw me a wonderful baby shower. We invited my friends and my mom's friends which made it really fun. We played a few games, had yummy food and baby cupcakes, and lots of time to visit. The shower lasted so long that Marc said he was beginning to worry that I wasn't home yet! Here are some pictures of the festivities

Moser Wedding Weekend

This 4th of July weekend we went over to Colton Washington to see Susannah's college roommate Ellie, her husband Jeff, and children Grace and Josh. We stayed at Ellie's parents farm on the Palouse in eastern Washington. We were also over there for her younger brother Ben's wedding. He and I work together at Caterpillar and have gotten to know each other more over the last few years.
