Two Become One

On March 29, 2008 my mom and her wonderful man, Ray (or Ray-Ray as I like to call him), got hitched! "Two Become One" has a double meaning...for the two of them joined together as one and so did our two families. Ray has two great kids, Troy who is married to sweet Emily, and cute Kaelynn. It seems like we've been family forever! God couldn't have picked a better bunch! We all love each other and are so blessed to have each other! Mom is off living in WA now with her new husband and starting a new chapter in her life. I am so happy she found someone who loves her as much as Ray does! He is perfect for her!!

Oh, I caught the bouquet! - well, my mom threw it at me! :)

My Washington Tour

I took a little mini vacation this past weekend to visit Washington...where my mom will be living soon. Her fiance, Ray, is the best tour-guide! He took us all over Eastern WA to show me the sites! It was great seeing the beauty and visiting with my soon-to-be new family :) Here are some photos from my adventures up North....

Visiting a park in Spokane with my soon-to-be step brother, Troy. He is pretty awesome! :) - oh, and I'm finally going to be a big sister! I think that's pretty exciting!

Lovely Ephrata - where mom and Ray will be living (a bit desert-ish!)
