Happy Birthday to Clay!


Welp, Clay is 26!

He got lots of goodies. We went to eat at Johnny Carinos (italian) and I made the lovely Fudge Truffle Cheesecake (YUUUUUM).

We played the game "Would you rather" it's so fun. It's a card game and we LOVE IT! It's a good one for getting to know you or like...just to have some giggles.
Harmoni and Derek...her "friend"? Dunno...but we liked him :)

Makayla and CJ (boyfriend)

Patty and Paul, husband and wife :)


We had our Seattle appointment last week, and it went well. We think that Clay will be back to church by December hopefully, and we will probably be ready to try and have kids in about a year. Talking about it and thinking about it over the past few days have made me have more comfort in the fact that it IS possible for me to have a baby without giving it Lyme, and I have a lot more control if I choose to. So, that's good. I have been very anxious and insecure about that the past few months.

Clay went hunting! He got an elk and came home and said he felt stiff but not pain. WOAH- hold up. That is huge. THEN- the next day after he slept for 14 hours, when he got home from work he asked me to go on a walk. WHAT?! If he were to do that LAST year, he would've been bed ridden for days! Huge huge huge. This is great! So happy.

My piano is FINALLY back in my house. We had 4 men in the house today, so we took advantage of the situation and had em bring in the piano! I paid them with cheesecake :) I will take a picture tomorrow when there is more light.

Well, that's all for now. Till next time!
