Murder Mystery

This was such a FUN party!

Nothing like a night with great friends, delicious food, and trying to figure out a murder!

It was all of our first time with a Murder Mystery Party so we started off slow trying to figure it out, but once we all got the hang of it we all really took off with the game. It was so much fun!

The party was a 1950's theme which takes place in a malt shop -

Here are the alumni (left to right) -

Jordan, Megan, me, Tren, Chris, Jena, Kalli and Joe.

The party was a blast!

Thanks Jena for putting on a great party!

We all can't wait to do it again next year!

That time of year

A couple weeks ago we bottled our delicious salsa! We decided to do it outside for the first time which was a VERY smart idea because we ended up having a bottle explode on us which would have been a PAIN to clean up had we been in the house.
Here is Tren with our whole set up in the backyard.

Hudson came with Grandma to help bottle! He did such a great job with every task we asked him to do. Here I am trying to help best I can between the nausea and dizziness. So glad the first trimester is over!

Working Hard - the salsa smelled SO good!











The mess that was created when the bottle exploded. I was standing right next to the steamer when it happened. I got splashed with hot salsa. What an experience.

The final product - we bottled nowhere near the usual amount due to our tomatoe's taking FOREVER to ripen up, but this will last us through the year.

Big news

On Monday we went and did this... Because we are 15 weeks along....

To look at this sweet face and these cute little feet .....

So we could tell our families that the next addition is a
GIRL!!!!!!


I was most excited for Tory's reaction. She has two of the cutest grandsons and has been hoping for a grand daughter to add to the family. This was her reaction - PRICELESS!



Tren and I couldn't be happier! We are so excited to be having this sweet little girl join our family in April! She will be so loved and VERY spoiled!

Super excited

We are super excited for our Monday appointment. We find out if our little one is a BOY or a GIRL. We are split pretty 50/50. Most of the Nelsons think it's a boy and most of the Hagmans think it's a girl. We'll keep ya posted!


We are almost 15 weeks. Some days I look a little preggo but most days I look pretty darn fluffy which is hard.


I am getting more and more of an appetite which is good - it's time to gain some of the weight I lost back.


I still have some pretty horrible headaches/migraines a few times a week - but I am not complaining! I am so happy to be pregnant and it's totally worth it!
