ELLA JANE LOWRY!!

On November 24th, 2007 my niece, Ella Jane Lowry was born at 2:46 am. She is the most beautiful little girl. Ben and my sister are going to be the most amazing parents, and Jacob is going to be the most amazing big brother. I am so grateful that I was able to be with them in the room and watch this baby come into this world. I can't wait to get to know her and take her shopping.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving was hosted by yours truly this year. Since my sister was due to have a baby any day I figured that I would host Thanksgiving so that my mom didn't have to cook a huge dinner for a total of four people. We had Jer's grandparents and parents as well as my parents over for dinner. Jer's grandma cooked the turkey and my mom and I did all the sides. We just wanted to make sure that if we had to leave for my sister's (if she went into labor) we could just go. With that being said she didn't go into labor and we had a really nice Thanksgiving!

Sam's Town Las Vegas Bowling!

For those of you that don't know for the last 22 weeks Jer and I have been in a bowling league with our best-friends, Chris and Andee. Out team name was Three Friends and a Perv, and of course we were the last place team of the the whole league. The last game of the seasons was played at Sam's Town in Las Vegas. I was not looking forward to going but we actually had a really great time. We spent two nights at Sam's Town and then Chris, Andee, Jer and I headed over to The Venetian for two more nights. The rooms at The Venetian were fantastic. They were so huge, since the hotel is all suite hotel. Every night housekeeping came in to turn down our beds and left chocolate on the pillows. Jer and I hadn't been in Vegas for 4 years so we had fun cruising the strip checking out some of the new hotels. The Wynn is probably the most beautiful hotel I have ever been. Chris and Andee also celebrated their one year wedding anniversary while we were there.
