Updates

Wow. It has been forever since we've updated our blog. Here's a quick update...The first part of March took us on an unexpected trip to Utah to attend the funeral of BJ's Grandpa Clark. It was great to see so much family that weekend although it was under sad circumstances. Grandpa Clark was an amazing example of a kind and gentle man and will be greatly missed. I have included some photos of that weekend.

Sam is doing great. He was such a trooper while we were in Utah. He played with his cousins and charmed everyone else. His only problem was he just didn't want to sleep at night. He is not a big fan of his pack and play. Bythe end of the week just in time to go home he had finally adjusted. It was our first long family road trip (BJ and I have never traveled longer than 5 hours in the car) Sam did great, only a little restless. He is just such a fun little guy. We love to watch him grow up and become a toddler. He is not walking yet, probably because he is a turbo crawler and can get any where we wants much faster by crawling than he would by trying to walk. His favorite things in the world right now are dogs and balls. BJ and I were going to take him to the zoo a couple of weeks ago. When we got there it was so crowded that we couldn't find a parking place so we decided to do something else. We saw an event going on near a store that we were going to and it ended up being a dog adoption festival. Sam thought he had died and gone to heaven. There were probably about 40 dogs there and every single dog we saw he gave his shreels of glee.

I've been working on an online niche store that sales scrapbooking equipment, and am now, Shannon Watkins, Website designer. For about 3 weeks I have gone to knowing absolutely nothing about web programing to actually creating and designing a website that I am pleased with. It is at www.discountcricut.com check it out and tell me what you think. So now I've gone from completely clueless to a little bit less clueless.
