My New CAR!!!!!, Company, Quilt, More Company, And Prego Pic

Well things have been pretty busy around here, but am going to catch up on all that has been going on. It has been nice staying so busy, the last month or so has really flown by.
Joe and I have lived in Colorado now for just about 4 years. It will be 4 years in September. And the whole time we have lived here we have just had one vehicle. So I have pretty much been without a car for 4 years. Joe did have a few jobs where he would carpool so I did have his truck once in awhile. Well I am excited to say I finally have a car of my own. We have worked really hard this year to pay off some debt and lower our overhead in order to afford to get me a car. It is so nice. I think we got a really good deal on a really good car. I really prayed that the Lord would provide us a good car that we could afford. It was definitely needful with the new baby coming and Luke getting older. I want to start getting him into some activities and hopefully put him in pre-school this fall.

So here it is, a picture of my new car!!!!!
Also this month my good friend Heidi came out to visit me from Washington. It was so great to see her. She was here for about 5 day. W mainly just hung out around the house and talked and went for walks every night.
The weekend she was here we took her to Telluride, which is about an hour from our house. It is kinda a little tourist town. It was a beautiful day with beautiful scenery.

Thought I would share this too, a picture of a quilt I made for a friend of mine who just had a little girl. I think it turned out really good. It was a lot of fun making it.

So at the beginning of the month we also had more company. Our friends Rob and Cherisse and there little girl Jenna came out to Colorado for a wedding, so we got to see them. The last time we saw them was when Luke was 4 months old. It was great to see them again and spend a few hours with them.

Well here is a 30 week prego pic of me. I am actually 32 weeks now!!!! Only 8 weeks to go!!! Guess I should have Joe take another pic. I am feeling pretty good. I am feeling big and starting to get uncomfortable. Strangers always ask me "Oh when are you due?" I say September and they give me this look with wide eyes and say "OH really" I just smile and say yup, but inside I am thinking "thanks alot, do I really look that big?" Oh well I guess I am just to that point where I am going to be big from here on out.
My mom will be here in about 6 weeks, so I can't wait for that and then will only have to wait 2 more weeks for baby. So just starting to get things ready around the house and try to enjoy the rest of the summer!!!
