Another Week, Another Adventure!

Dear Grandma,
            GUESS WHAT? I just finished up my spring semester and ended up with a solid 4.0 GPA!  And the best part is that I got a 100% on my Physics 2 Final!  It is definitely hanging on my fridge right now! This past week has included some of my favorite things; good grades, time with family (more on that in a minute--BABY SHOWER!), and new shoes (for the trip--new shoes help keep the airplane in the air--fact. :) )  We also traded in my car for the exact same thing I had but this one has all wheel drive, leather seats, a moonroof, and BUTT WARMERS!!! :) I can't tell you how happy my bum was to hear that news! :)
               The last week and a half has been hectic (but GREAT!) and studying for finals basically took up the last fews days and before that we had a baby shower for Baby Momma and Tom!  I am currently uploading pictures as I type this so as soon as I can I will load a few! 
               The baby shower was this past Saturday, which was the 5th of May.  We had it at our church in Fellowship Hall and were able to decorate it with a spring/bird theme with lots of pink and glitter-Tom's favorite!  We were so so so excited with how the shower turned out.  The shower was also the grand reveal of Baby Girl's name which I will introduce with pictures as I made name banners for both her first and middle names!  Tom and Shayna are loved by many as evidenced by the amount of goodies they got-- Shayna literally opened presents for over an hour!  We are all so thankful though that people were so generous and giving.  Some of my personal favorites were the carseat they got along with the jogging stroller that the carseat fits into!  I was able to try out the carseat and stroller last night when I was over at their house--Baby Momma and I put the stroller together ourselves and it is preetttttyyyy nice!  I kept laughing though cause I love carseats for some reason (maybe because I think of them as an accesory?)  so I kept playing with it and practicing carrying around baby girl--Shayna probably thought I had lost it!  Oh well--I will be all ready for when she comes--experience carrying the car seat and all!  The pictures are still loading so I am going to move on, but will come back and add pictures in a little bit!
 Here they are!...
                                                          First things first--her name!.......


Her name is going to be EMMALYN BRINLEY....



Me and my Momma

And one more!



   Baby Momma cutting into the cake--it was so cute!  It said "The newest chick hatching soon: Emmalyn"



In other adventure news--we leave a week from today to go on our West Coast excursion!  I am getting so excited!  I even considered starting to pack and then realized having two suitcases (one for me one for Cam) would probably take up the whole extra room we have which is where Cam gets ready in the morning so I figured it might be better to wait a few more days--so maybe by Monday I will be packed! :) I am also trying to start making some lists of what all we need to bring like clothes, shoes, real clothes besides sweatpants, charging cords for all our electronics, etc.  There are also a few more things we probably need to get so I am making a list for that stuff too!  Lists everywhere!  Anyways, we can't wait to see everyone and have lots of fun!  Love you guys!

I also promised in my last post that I would be making a big announcement about another adventure we are going on, but it will have to wait another week or so because we decided we wanted to tell our family on the West Coast in person to see their faces so as soon as our families all know I will post it here!  It's worth the wait I promise!

Generally I don't enjoy writing, but on this blog I feel like I could go on forever,which lucky for you guys-- I won't.  But I will finish it up for today because the laundry is calling my name and I am hoping to get a run in!  Check back in the next week or so because I will try to post some pics from our trip as I take them and make the big announcement!

Love you Grandma,
Jenny Marie
