{Babies, First Birthdays & Rainbows}

So I have been a little ... no VERY annoyed lately. For the past five days, I have been without the Internet. I know, it's awful. I couldn't blog, I couldn't check my blogs ... if it hadn't started working tonight, you probably could have caught me at the library stealing their Internet!

It seems like so much has happened since I last posted. Braeden had his first birthday, tailgates, old friends, new friends, etc. But before I go into anything further, I would just like to say ... "Welcome to the World Carter!" A friend of mine, Jenny, had a baby today around 3:00 PM ,and named him Carter, and I can not wait to meet him soon!

Braeden's first birthday went so well! We had his party the Sunday before and so many people were able to come and help us celebrate. Even though I asked for no gifts ... no one listened, and now he is so spoiled :) Anyways, I just want to thank everyone for coming!

As you can imagine, without the Internet I have just been sitting around the house trying to find things to do while Braeden is sleeping. One afternoon, it had been raining all day, and my friend Ashley told me to go outside and look up ... this is what I saw ...

Hope everyone has a wonderful week!

{Some Wedding Favorites}

Alright, I know our wedding was a while ago, but I just got back a few images from our photographer tonight. She is burning me several CD's of all of our pictures, but she obviously knows me a little too well, and knows that I have little to no patience. This is probably why she sent me a few a little early! Love you Amy!!

Just a few of many to come!

{Braeden's First Year}

Happy Birthday to my beautiful son, Braeden Michael Imhoff, born October 20, 2007. He is such a blessing to his father and I, and I thank God everyday for bringing him in my life.

Happy 1st Birthday Braeden!

-Love Mommy & Daddy

{Kitchen Face Lift}

Thought I would post pictures of my kitchen face lift now while it's still clean! :) I will have a lot more to post in the next couple of days of Braeden's first birthday party, but for now, the kitchen will have to do. I still have some small things to finish, but those will come with time.

Without further ado ... here is our new kitchen on a small budget!

{Honeymoon Part II}

These pictures are from the friends we met on the cruise. Just thought I would add a few pictures ...

{Pumpkin Fest '08}

This Sunday the family headed down to the Hartsberg Pumpkin Festival which was super fun! I just had to share some of my favorite pictures with you from yesterday! Ryan's whole family was able to go, and so was my mom, brother, and his friend Lindsey.

Of course you know I had to run home as fast as I could to get these pictures developed. I took these on my "nice" camera ... but I am thinking I may need another lens ... any suggestions?

Anyways, I hope you enjoy Braeden's first encounter with Pumpkins!!

{Missing The Cruise}

Wow - Seem's like it has been a really long time since I last posted anything to do with the wedding. It seems like it was FOREVER ago, but it's was seriously one of the best times of my life. Ryan even asked me when we could renew our vows ... I mean Come On ... it must have been fun if the Groom wan't to go through all of the drama that comes with planning a wedding again!

I know I have slacked with the honeymoon pictures, so I thought while I was changing the look of my blog, I would go ahead a post a FEW pictures of the amazing cruise that we went on.

To set the scene ... Ryan and I went on a 7 day Carnival Cruise to Mexico, Honduras, Belize and the Bahamas, it was AMAZING! We wish we were still on the boat, sticking out or daily/nightly routine ... Wake up whenever, play in a different country for a day, come back and get ready for dinner, eat as much as you want ... never leaving out dessert, going back to the room for an outfit change, heading to the Ebony Cabaret for a little Karaoke, hitting up the casino, enjoying adult comedy nightly, grabbing pizza at 1:00 AM and then ending up in our room with Bill and Jess playing quarters ... gosh I miss that!
