Just Call Me Caddy Kori...

When I do a job, I try to do the job well. Most of the time.

Today, my job was to be a golf caddy. I had the task of carrying the "clubs" for my golfing trio that I was accompanying around 18 "holes."

Ok, who am I kidding, I carried a bag with Frisbees and powerade in it. But I still think I did a pretty darn good job of it.

Dave, Jeff, Keely and I went for a Frisbee golf adventure today at Ferrettie Baugo. We had blast. This was Keely and Jeff's first go round at Frisbee Golf. They did a great job...not as great as Dave, who played his best game ever...but it was their first time after all!
Even though Jeff managed to hit about 90% of the trees along the course (not an easy task) and Keely managed to get her Frisbee stuck in not one, but two different trees...and she wasn't even aiming for them, they both would have kicked my butt had I been playing instead of supervising and score keeping! I'd say they had a pretty successful day!

I hope Keely and Jeff had as much fun as Dave and I did. It was a great afternoon spent with super siblings!

10 Weeks And Counting...

Holy Smokes, Batman! I can't believe that Dave and I have 10 weeks, (maybe give or take a few days) until we get to welcome our new son into the world! I'M SO EXCITED! I can't wait to see his little face, his 10 tiny fingers and 10 tiny toes, how big he will be, how long he will measure...there's just so much to think about.

I might be EVEN more excited to get his foot and arm (or whatever it may be) out of my left rib. Not that I don't absolutely love feeling him squirm all around my innerds, but really... I forget what that feeling is like...to be able to read aloud to kids, or even just carry on a 60 second conversation without stopping to catch my breath. It's a hard thing to do when there are things in ribs that just don't belong.

Here's our latest vegetable update...he's now about the weight of head of cabbage. That's right...a head of cabbage...just about 3 lbs. (In my opinion, that's to much cabbage, but oh well!)

Here's what our site said this week:

"Your baby is 30 weeks old. Your baby continues to grow and develop inside of you. Measuring 15.7 inches long, he weighs 3 lbs. He now almost fills up your entire uterine cavity and his arms and legs have grown much plumper, thanks to the continued growth of subcutaneous fat.
By 30 weeks, his eyelids open and close. He'll keep his eyes closed for most of the day though. When his eyes are open, he will be able to track light inside of your womb, though his vision isn't "perfect" or 20/20."

Just 10 more weeks and I get to say hello to my cabbage. I CAN'T WAIT!

4 hours, 44 minutes...

And summer break 2009 is over.

It's back to school time tomorrow, bright and early, and I'm just not sure how I feel about that.

Simply Amazing!

I consider myself to have a lot of friends in my life. When I really think about it, I guess I have friends, and then I have FRIENDS.

Friends are the people that you know, maybe you've been to dinner with once or twice, have a little something common with and can call when things are really bad. I have quite a few of them in my life and they mean a lot to me.

On the other hand, there are FRIENDS that I wouldn't trade for the world. These people are the ones that I hold closest to my heart at all times. They are the ones that make a point to call you, actually make dinner plans (not let you get by with "let's get together sometime..."), know when you need a hug and put you before themselves.

Tonight, I got to see a true friend. One that I never want to lose, one that is close to my heart, one that means the world to me, one that is so unselfish she makes me cry, one that I want to be just like. She has an amazing spirit, a heart full of God and an amazing giving attitude.

I know that if she is reading this, she will know who she is, and she deserves to know just how thankful I am that she is in my life.

Tonight, she proved to me that really great people exist in the world, that there are people who care about others more than they care about themselves and that there will never be words to express my gratitude towards her actions and friendship.

Friend...what you did tonight for our family was so much more than we deserve. We love you and are so thankful you are in our lives. I only hope that one day, I can be the friend to you that you have been to me.
