So here goes the back tracking!<br />
<br />
A local baseball team was selling strawberries as a fundraiser and I could not resist! They were so beautiful (for them to be so early) that I bought quite a few. I put several pounds in the freezer because Gray LOVES frozen strawberries. The rest I made into freezer jam! I found a new recipe that only calls for 1 1/2 cups of sugar and it made the jam SO DELICIOUS. I put up 8 jars and we only have 2 jars left....since March haha!<br />

<br />
This past February I performed in a Rodgers and Hammerstein musical review called "A Grand Night For Singing". I love performing. Artie tells me that I was born to be on stage. This cast was so wonderful! My time performing is coming to a close and so I cherish every moment onstage. <br />
<br />
Here are some pictures from the show. <br />

Every test for 5 1/2 years has been negative. The day before I found out, I had a promo commercial to shoot for the theater. I was changing clothes and Artie noticed some things going on with my body. Laughing, I told him he was silly and headed out the door (fully dressed of course).<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
As I am filming, Artie keeps texting me that I should take a test. No. Life was super busy at the time and I did not have time to be sad.<br />
<br />
The next morning, while Artie was at work, I tested. I will never forget that moment as long as I live. It was unsurmountable joy. Elation. It didn't matter to me at the moment how the pregnancy turned out because my prayer had been answered. It was a feeling I had felt before, the day we were chosen to be Grayson's parents. I couldn't believe it. I was pregnant.....<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is the second after it said positive! </div>

<br />
Of course I wanted to call Artie right away but told myself no. The moment was big and needed to be announced in a big way. I also wanted to go out and get a few more tests to take because I wanted to make sure. I only had +/- tests and felt like I needed something to say PREGNANT. <br />
<br />

I read and re-read the box to make sure I was not crazy!</div>

<br />
As Grayson and I are getting dressed to leave, he falls on his face. Hard. He stands up screaming and there is blood everywhere. It was probably the scariest moment of his little life so far. I cleaned up what I could of the blood and decided to head on in to the doctor. It looked awful and I couldn't really see his teeth. Once I got Gray in the car I called Artie to have him meet us there. The doctor cleaned little man up and told us that he had bitten his lips pretty badly but it should be fine in a week. (Thankfully!) Artie noticed during the doctor visit that I was acting a little weird but I told him it was all the blood. <br />
<br />
Grayson, of course, wanted what I had promised him before the commotion...DONUTS! (It was Friday after all) Artie took Grayson to get donuts after the doctor and I ran to the store "to pick up popsicles and soft food" for the baby. Decoy to get more pregnancy tests! Once everyone got home, it was time for a nap. Artie decided to take a nap while G slept because he was exhausted...he never does this. During nap time, I tested and re-tested! <br />

<br />
I could not wait for Artie to wake up...it was the longest 2 hours of my life! I tied the tests together and put them in a bag for Artie to open. Once he woke up I told him I had a present for him.<br />
<br />

When he opened it the only thing he could say is "Are you serious?"! We cried and cried. It was seriously a day I will never forget. <br />

We could not be more excited. <br />
<br />
First and foremost. We are still praying for all of those waiting for their miracle. It is a very surreal situation to wake up one day and be on the other side of infertility. I have been praying everyday for the people I know who are still struggling with this. I know how I reacted to pregnancy announcements in the past... not very gracefully. <br />
<br />
<br />
The details:<br />
<br />
I am 14 weeks along and due February 3. <br />
<br />
I am sick! Haha. I mean seriously. I prayed to God that I would puke everyday if it meant that I could be pregnant. He listened... The weirdest things make me sick. The sound of a soda can opening and the feel of wet dishes (clean or dirty) sends me running to toilet. <br />
<br />
My energy is starting to come back which has been nice! Artie laughed at me because for a few weeks I would just sleep all the time. Ten hours at night was not enough!<br />
<br />
We are dealing with a small problem with my u.terus but as of now everything looks ok. Nothing to be super concerned with until the baby gets a little bigger. <br />
<br />
I have gained 2 pounds which is pretty good since I am so sick. I can still wear most of my clothes. <br />
<br />
We will be finding out if it is a boy or girl in a few weeks and CAN NOT WAIT!<br />
<br />
This whole thing is a crazy miracle. I will make a whole post about how I found out and how I told Artie because it is a long story. We are just so thankful for this sweet baby. <br />
<br />
Thank you again for all the messages and prayers! I will start doing pregnancy posts every week to keep you updated! <br />
<br />

On the 27th of July Grayson turned 3 years old! The past 3 years have flown by. The day he was born feels like it was just a few days ago. I know I will be saying this the rest of his life! <br />
<br />
This year Grayson wanted a pirate party (kinda). Three weeks before his party he told me he wanted an airplane party...sorry Bud but the invites had already been printed haha! The next three weeks I tried to amp him up about the party being of the pirate nature. I knew once he was at the party he would not care one bit. PRESENTS! CAKE! UNDIVIDED ATTENTION! <br />
<br />
I wanted the party to be scaled back a bit from previous years because we are doing something extra special in September. <br />
<br />
<br />
The morning of his birthday started out with cinnamon rolls and special decorations. This is a fun little tradition we started last year! <br />

I'm sad that we didn't get a family picture this year but such is life. Grayson was a busy boy and could not be bothered. Artie was really proud that I kept things to a minimum this year. I tend to go overboard! Grayson had such a great time running around with his cousins and slept until 9:45 the next morning!!! <br />
<br />
Happy Birthday Little Buddy!!!<br />

I will post his 3 year pictures and party pics soon. I had a small panic attack today when I pulled them from my camera...my computer started acting like a fruit cake and would not load them! Ah! But all is well and they are now safely on my computer. I have have lots of fun things to catch you up on but for now I will leave you with this picture of my boy at the beach!<br />

Since she is young and so cute, I wanted something that would fit her personality. I searched and searched for a theme I would like and found NOTHING! So I thought for a few day and came up with an "Eye Candy" theme. It turned out super ADORABLE!!! Once I finished making the invitation, I was ready to design the candy table. <div>

During the summer I bought some shabby white frames that Hobby Lobby had on sale. They had not found a permanent place in my home yet so I used them in the design. I cut out the K, A and heart from poster board and covered them in sprinkles! Cotton candy in cute polka dot cups, apothecary jars with hard candy, suckers and candy canes made the table so DELICIOUS looking! My most favorite was the gum ball necklaces. I used a needle and ribbon to string them on. It was a little sticky and took some time but SO WORTH it! The guests could put their treats in green chevron bags. </div>

I was a bit bummed because someone broke into my car the week of the shower and stole some of my camera lenses. So the only pics I have from my phone! But in a happy twist of fate...the person was caught (who broke into my car) and I will get my lenses back! </div>

I love mac and cheese so I KNEW I wanted to try something that claimed to be revolutionary! I hate that I don't have more pictures but Gray got a little crazy while I was cooking. I was trying not to let the milk burn while keeping Gray from scaling over the couches like an Army Ranger. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

The start</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
The recipe calls for you to cook the pasta in the milk. I will say that it was nice not to have to strain and transfer. The overall flavor was good. Delicious even! The only problem I had was my cheese just did not melt well. That top picture is what it is suppose to look like. Mine not so much. It was definitely creamy! The cheese was just a little clumpy. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Would I make it again? Mmmm yes. I actually might make it again to try to make it better. Again, the flavor was SO GOOD. I would just adjust the amount of milk/type of cheese. Maybe I used a cheap cheese that didn't melt well? Maybe. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So the Revolutionary Mac and Cheese was somewhat of a success! Here is a link to the recipe if you would like to try it for yourself!! <a href="http://www.macaroniandcheesecake.com/2011/09/revolutionary-mac-cheese.html"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #f6b26b;">Revolutionary Mac and Cheese</span></a></div>

<br />
<br />
Every August we make a trip to the beach. This ends up being the perfect time to go because it still feels like summer but without all the people! We try to go around the time schools go back to ensure this ha. The beach trip this year ended up being a little weird. Poor Grayson had a TERRIBLE allergic reaction to pineapples and was miserable! I felt SO BAD. <br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Before the allergic reaction! </div>

This is where things turned a little ugly. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The first night we were there, we went out for dinner. The restaurant served pineapple with Grayson's meal and he ate it right up. (let me state that we <i>thought</i> he might be developing an allergy but were not 100%. Late in the summer he started breaking out on his chin when he would eat and we thought maybe it was because he was eating really acidic things. He was eating pineapple and tomatoes like crazy during the summer.) During dinner he started getting splotchy. Really splotchy. The longer we sat there the worse it was getting. So I did what any mother would do...got my phone out and took pictures of it. I immediately sent it to our nurse who sent <i>us</i> out for benadryl. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Luckily we had arrived early enough to North Myrtle that we got to have some beach time! The rest of the time, we hid from the sun so Grayson would not feel worse! :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
We took Grayson to a place called Alligator Adventure. Well he was so drugged that he did not care one bit haha. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

More inside time meant more relaxation time! Which was fine by me. I am just glad Grayson got to spend a few hours at the beach. It proved that it is going to get easier! He definitely liked it a lot more than 2011!Heather Allenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16099718665597825192noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8906961498230863421.post-5698010034847525962013-01-22T08:00:00.000-05:002013-01-22T08:00:14.328-05:00GHS MajorettesIt is hard to believe how fast football season passed this year!

My girls did an amazing job this year. They looked beautiful and twirled great on the field. I haven't posted much about them this year so I thought a little post was in order. I can't even believe I am saying this but auditions are quickly approaching! We have two 8th graders that are auditioning in April. They are working hard to be a part of the line! <br />

I am going to miss our seniors so much! They had a wonderful year and I know they are going to do great things in college!!!Heather Allenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16099718665597825192noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8906961498230863421.post-21764607359353060732013-01-21T08:00:00.000-05:002013-01-21T08:00:12.585-05:00Snow Day! I am not a fan of snow at all. Call me a scrooge but all I can think about is the sweet little old people without electricity. Artie and I had a bet going. Usually once a year the meteorologist will get everyone in tizzy about measurable snow fall. Then it never snows. Artie told me that we were going to get some snow this time and I did not believe him....and a bet was born. Luckily the wager was one of my pies so it wouldn't be TERRIBLE if I lost. ;) <br />
<br />
Well. It snowed. A lot. <br />
<br />
Since Grayson has never played in the snow, I bundled him up to go outside. Grayson decided he was done after 10 minutes haha! I was JUST fine with it...I know there is going to be a day when I can't even bribe him to come in.<br />
<br />
<br />
One of the problems, I believe, was proper footwear. Remember when I said it never snows? Yeah. Grayson has a pair of rain boots that Santa brought but are a bit big. So I had to go country style and tie grocery sacks around his shoes. It was FANCY.....<br />
<br />

<br />
In October Artie turned 30! Wahoo...he finally caught up to me. I love that his birthday is in the fall because we ALWAYS have a bonfire. The crispy nights and warm bonfire make me SO happy. I seriously look forward to it every year. His birthday is really close to Halloween so we ask everyone to dress up. Last year the theme was Lumber Jack and this year the theme was movie characters. It was hilarious to see what people chose. Artie wanted to dress up like the characters from Nerds. It turned out to be so FUNNY!!!!<br />

I did not get a chance to take many pictures but I wanted to get a picture of Grayson's cute shirt!<br />

I have a funny story about the shower. I decided to have a few different types of cheeses set out to snack on. I went to the grocery store to pick out 3 or 4 types of cheese. I LOVE cheese...any kind of cheese. I wanted to get something that I had not tried before so I picked up sheep's milk cheese. I didn't look at the price and assumed it was in the $5-8 range that the others were in. Artie put the groceries away while I took care of Grayson. All of a sudden Artie said my full name...I ran in the kitchen to see what I had done. The sheep cheese was $29!!!!! Evidently I was not paying attention AT ALL. Oooppps. It ended up being DELICIOUS!! (luckily) </div>

One being Halloween! <br />
<br />
<br />
I love our little Halloween traditions that we are developing! Since Grayson doesn't really eat candy (well we don't let him haha) we have been driving to visit our favorite people. This works out great because we don't have to explain to Grayson why he can't eat the candy he would collect while trick or treating. <br />

Some pictures of our little monster before we left! </div>
