First Picture!

So this is the first picture of our baby! that's it's head to the right side and he/she is looking straight at you. his/her arms are crossed. and about 2 inches long right now.

we are elated and completely excited to say the least. we are going to start taking before, during, and after pictures of melissa soon since her belly hasn't changed yet. not sure why it's taken us so long to get around to taking a before. we're special i guess.

love you guys!

Christmas is coming!

Okay, so. As most of you probably know. I work with O'neill, Lost, Rusty, and Metal Mulisha. I get 20% discount off the warehouse price of all their stuff.

And my friends do TOO!

So go check out their websites www.oneill.com www.lostenterprises.com www.metalmulisha.com. and let me know what you want.

I might bring the clothing catalogs to the thanksgiving dinner so let me know there if you want some stuff.

so you know... the only things i can't get discount is wetsuits.
yes that means i can get you lost surfboards for around 350.

Melissa Is Pregnant!

So this is the before picture. just so you all know. Melissa is pregnant! we weren't planning to tell anyone for awhile (reason we got the camera) but word got out somehow and we didn't want to offend people so we just started telling everyone on saturday. if you can't tell, we are so so so so excited!

just a few pictures that we have taken on the camera in the last few days since we don't really have much else to put.

yes, my jaw is HUGE! i'm going on a diet tomorrow (yes i'm being serious about the diet)

Happy Halloween

So yes we finally got a camera. because of that, we will now be able to post REAL photos. tonight we went over to my brothers house to see his kids all dressed up for halloween. literally as we pulled up to his house my mom and melissa both said, "that pumpkin is soooo cool". needless to say we were both surprised that they would go to such trouble to carve a pumpkin. we assumed it was heather. turns out carter put himself to work and made it. amazement? yes.

Then we got to see my 5 year old nephew look totally in better shape than all of us. they have got the coolest costumes now! when i was superman as a kid i had to rely on my own poochy physique to fill out my costume. nope, my nephew has foam padding to actually look like a superhero. dang it! kids get everything these days. do you remember back when your family was keeping up with the jones by having a cordless phone. not a cell phone. a cordless phone. nice!

i told him to smile for this one! cutest little kid.

and this is my niece ariel (ashlee) she was like on a total sugar high when i saw her. i got a video and i might post it later. she was pretty much on crack! it was awesome. oh the wonders of free endless candy
