So I got this idea from the Ehlke family, and thought this would be a great idea considering most of our friends and family are spread all over North America as well!!! This way we can keep in touch with everyone using our blog...
Since, it is already getting below 50 degrees in Minnesota I figured I would update you on all the happenings of Paul and I's summer...It was a busy one!!!
As most of you know, our wedding was June 3, 2006 in Michigan, and to be completly honest I couldn't of asked for a more perfect day. (It did rain-I am still waiting to get rich!!!- But it did not spoil our day) It was a perfect day, I (almost) made it through the entire ceremony without crying, but knowing the sap I am...I balled...But the reception was a blast, I have to give my Mom credit for getting Mark from Alexo's to do our catering, that was the best wedding dinner I have ever had- (well the couple bites I had was amazing!!!) The dance was a blast, our DJ even told us, that our friends and family knew how to party!!! So way to go guys!!! The day after the wedding- Paul and I headed to Las Vegas for our honeymoon...What an amazing city!!! I had never been there before, however Paul had, so it was kind of nice because he knew what we shouldn't waste time on seeing and what we should see...and of course we spent plenty of time in front of the pool. You got to love sitting at the pool at nine am. with a margarita in hand!!! LOVE VACATION!!! So despite us not winning the big jack pot or anything, we did have a wonderful time in Las Vegas. Shortly after returning to Minnesota we purchased our very first house!!! It is an older, two bedroom house- but perfect for what we need right now...The couple that lived there before us had just re-painted and put in new carpeting so there wasn't too much that needed to be done immediately...Gents, we did get a house with not only a one stall garage, but also a three stall. Paul has big plans to insulate the three stall and build a tool bench and bar out there this winter...I told him to put a TV and a couch out there as well and he would never need to come in the house!!! Haha!! Anyways, so after we bought a house, a week later Renee found out she was pregnant!!! Within 6 weeks Paul and I got married, went on our honeymoon, bought a house and got pregnant!!! Apparently we work fast!!! Haha- No we had planned to have a baby, however we didn't think it would happen so fast, but apparently I am pretty fertile!!! So sometime around March 20th there will be a little Holm running around!!! Watch out world!!!
Other than that, Paul and I have spent the majority of the summer unpacking and making our house a home!!! Two weeks ago we did get to hear the babys heart beat...A sign of life!!! It was so exciting!!! But that brings us to now...and its starting to get cold...I thought Paul was nuts this morning when I saw him with his winter coat on, but here I sit in a turtle neck sweater!!!
Hope all is well with all of you- We will keep you in touch as to what is new with us!!! Take Care! ~ Renee, Paul, Baby, Baxter and Bella ~
