To SoDak and Back

Troy and I had a blustery cold trip to s. dakota. the actually temperature when we were up there was -30°. It was a record the state on that date. Isn't that nice? We were so cold! Troy and I both had on layer after layer of clothes, gloves and scarves. Fun times! Other than the weather being so brutally cold, we had a wonderful time. It's always good to re-connect with family and friends.

Partly the reason for our visit was to celebrate my parents' 40th wedding anniversary. We had a great get-together at the Nazarene church in Madison, having a taco bar. Normally we have soup on New Year's Eve, but this year they opted for tacos. Troy and I gave Granny her gift - a pair of cheetah print pajama bottoms, socks, and a bright red shirt. My family put her up to modeling the PJ's, and then sitting on Troy's lap. It was too funny. I love the craziness of my family. We always have a good laugh every time we are there. For being 86 (just about 87 this Saturday), my granny is in great health.

Laura and her family threw a wonderful baby shower for us on Saturday. We had a great time sharing stories and memories. My granny said that she's proud of who I married. (think I've been ousted from the family and Troy and nestled his way in!) There were many stories of my childhood. We came out wonderful with all the loot - tons of baby clothes, blankets, toys, and cash. So glad my friends and family can celebrate with Troy and me through this pregnancy. I have some wonderful friends from all around the US who flew into s. dakota on the coldest day of the year to share in our journey of child bearing. Kimberly came from Las Vegas, Laura and Paul from Alaska, and other from all over eastern s. dakota.

We got back to Georgia very early on Monday morning. We had a baby doctor's appointment at 9 am. That was a little rough, but we made it through. Everything is going well with Baby Brown. Here's a photo of the little tyke:

Cute little fellow!
Saw one of your former co-workers a couple of days ago. She asked about you> I updated what I knew...married ,pregnant, still working at same place.
I don't know her name but she said she would call you at work since you were still there.
