We’ve had a great, if quiet, week here in Florida. We’ve managed to book some fun future travel plans, talk to the kids and grandkids and other family, and enjoy this corner of the world.
This slice of Florida has been great this month. We’ve really enjoyed being able to take our daily walks in a beautiful place. People here are friendly and the resort is impeccably kept. Although we have had some decidedly COLD days, we escaped the bitterest of weather that much of the country endured this month. We sure can’t complain! It’s been really good to feel settle a bit so that we could get some things done. To everything there is a season, and this has been our season to be still. Soon, it will be our season to move and we’ll bring you all along on some new adventures!
We’re on our way back to Ohio/West Virginia to see Lauren and Bo and the kids, but we’re going slowly via Nashville and Dayton. We’ll check in next week from beautiful Marietta, Ohio!
She’s Here!
Hi! We’ve had a good week here in Northern Utah. The weather is warming up a bit, there are buds on the trees, and…oh yeah…we have a new granddaughter! Daisy Ray Bauserman joined us about 10 days early on Friday night. Lauren had a crazy day of contractions and running back and forth to the hospital on Thursday with no progress. Then on Friday night, little miss didn’t waste any time and was born just before 10 pm. There was a bit of a hiccup in delivery when Lauren’s blood pressure dropped (and of course, so did baby’s) due to an extra dose of pain meds in her epidural. But she recovered and was able to deliver normally, despite being extremely medicated and numb. Miss Daisy’s a cute little thing and looks an awful lot like her big sister. Needless to say, we are tickled with our newest addition.
Marching On
Hello from beautiful Utah and Happy March! We had a good two weeks in Missouri, playing with kids and helping out. After two long driving days later, we are resting up in Utah for new adventures coming up! Although Nathan was fighting illness the whole time, we had a...
A Very Merry Birthday
We’ve had a good week here in Ohio and West Virginia. Nathan is still in a battle with a cold virus, but it’s been great beside that wrinkle. We’ve played with the kids, done some projects around Lauren’s house, and even found time for a trip to the dentist (Bo :)). We just happened to be around while he was off with his brothers and dad on a hunt, so it was a bonus to be able to help Lauren. She’s in her last month of pregnancy number four, so things are getting exciting! Despite being 8+ months pregnant, she prepared me a spectacular birthday dinner, making ramen from scratch (including handmade noodles) and a glorious flourless chocolate cake. I was spoiled to get fancy chocolates from my hubby, texts and calls from lots of people I love, and plenty of grandkid giggles and hugs. It’s been a good one! We’ll be picking up and moving on tomorrow…Missouri is next!
I love that photo of the boardwalk through the wetlands! Beautiful!
