My first contact with our daughters

Last night Kristina got my attention and placed my hand on her belly while we were watching television. It was one of many times that she had thought I might be able to feel the twins kicking. I never was able to feel anything but I got great enjoyment from watching Kristina’s excitement. This time turned out to be the night that I was formally introduced to my daughters. As my hand lays on Kristina’s stomach I got to feel my daughter kick for the very first time. It was one of the most amazing things I have ever experienced. For the first time my daughters were more than just a thing I got to see pictures of. It all becomes so real and wonderful.

I cannot wait to meet my daughters in person. Raising them along side Kristina will be the most amazing adventure. For now I will settle for enjoying the small gifts Kristina gives me when she feels them kick.

We are having 2!

What happened to our front yard?

The tree was taken out professionally but the roots were left to us. As you can see from the piles of wood (roots) we are making progress. But we have more to go before we can fill in all the holes. Hope to have a lawn soon. :)

Cal Poly Tractor Pull

In 2007 I was working with a Cal Poly Student Brandie and she was on the “Tractor Pull Team.” I had no idea what it was but when she invited Chad and I we decided it might be interesting so we went. It was so much FUN! It was so incredible to see and feel all that power going by. We went again in 2008 and 2009. The Poly tractor pull is the longest standing tradition Chad and I have. I think this could be a yearly event for us for many more years.

Thanks Brandi for introducing us to the Tractor Pull.
