UPDATE!!!!

Ok Guys....here is your update. I still can't tell you the super duper exciting news....but.....once I can get the pictures to cooperate, the cat will be out of the bag.

In other news...I FINALLY heard back from my doctor and I do not have H Pylori, and there is no intrinsic reason for my lack of ability to absorb B12....which is good. It doesn't explain WHY I'm not getting it, but it's good that there isn't something more serious that is causing it. So I will be getting B12 shots once a week for a month and then probably once a month after that depending on what my levels do. And for the reflux and heartburn I will be taking Prilosec. So...Meme got some answers and hopefully soon I'll be able to have enough energy to get off the couch!

2007

2007 was a busy year for us. We spent another week with Dennis and Diane in Florida....both of us managed to get very sunburnt, and it was great!!!! I love our trips to visit them, it is so relaxing and so beautiful there.

In May Bronson and I made the BIG move in together. We moved into an apartment here in Park Rapids. It was huge and the move was quite and eye opener into how much "stuff" we have.....two grown people, two totally furnished homes....makes for ALOT OF JUNK!!!!! We still haven't quite weeded through everything. Since May, we have moved again, into the farm! We did remodeling and painting and made some changes to the house, and we are loving living there. It is nice that Bronson is right by the horses...he truly enjoys being responsible for the horses and helping Dennis out with them. We even got to go on a few hay rides...so much fun!

In June we got engaged! I have waited my whole life for this, and am so happy and ready to be a wife! We have learned alot about each other in the past 6 months, and I think we are ready to start our life together....and my parents are so happy to be getting Bronson as a Son in Law, and that I have such a wonderful person to share my life with.....so the wedding plans started. June 21st 2008 will be the big day.

In July my cousin Charlie married Andrea in Duluth at Spirit Mountain. What a beautiful day it was, and it was a blast! Our family is so very lucky to have Andrea in our huge family! She fits right in, and I know that Susie and Tim are having fun with their new "daughter," Kayla loves having a sister, and I think Ryan likes having another girl to pick on!

In October our little family grew. We adopted a dog from the Humane Society. We now are the "parents" of a Black Lab mixed with something else that we aren't sure of. Her name is Bootsie. I saw her and she reminded me of Grandma Boots and Grandpa Boyd's dog Pooper, and since her name was Bootsie, she had to come home with us! It has been interesting....she is such a good girl and is getting used to her new home, and is coming around and is coming out of her shell....we are having fun with her too.

Also in October we suprised Cory and the kids for his grand opening of Gander Mountain in Kentucky....so much fun and so good to see all of them! We even got to be there for Ashley's birthday....she was beside herself. We got to be up close and personal with the O.C. Chopper guys....cool. Cory has a very cool store, although the accent he's "acquired" is strange to hear... he says my accent is stronger! I can't wait to see them at the wedding. It's hard having them so far away. The kids get bigger and older everyday, and I'm very glad that Mel keeps us posted and up to date so well.

So.....as you can see, 2007 has been a busy one....lots of changes! We got to spend alot of time with the families that we love, and spend time with our nieces and nephews which makes us happiest. 2008 is going to be a busy one too......We'll keep you posted!!!!
