Long Time No Post

I have been a big fat slacker at this blogging thing and have not posted for a very long time. So a brief summary of what we have been up to for the last 4 months. Bart and I went to the Panguitch Balloon Rally in June on the Harley and had a blast, In July we had the regular old July activities and then the end of July first part of August we went on a very needed family vacation to Lagoon, Yellowstone, and Mt. Rushmore, of course there were lots of other stops also. In August we also had our family reunion which was a blast but also COLD. After that school started and it seems that is all we have been doing since. Melanie started 3rd grade this year and Carter started Kindergarten. They were both very excited and really like their teachers. As many of you know we were also made aware of a new addition to our family in August although no one else new until just a few weeks ago. After all of the heart break we have had over the last 3 years we decided not to let anyone else know until further along. Since the announcement the only question that we have had it seems is "What is it" until today that response was "Don't Know" or "A Baby". Well today I had my "routine" ultrasound and to my suprise Bart decided that we should find out what the baby was. So here it is...........A GIRL. That's right we are the girl makers in the Mortensen family but that is ok we will take whatever we can get. The baby measures good and everything looked great other than she didn't cooperate so we will have to go back in a couple of weeks so that they can get a good look at her heart. Well I think that this is all of our excitement so I will add a bunch of pictures of our fun hopefully you won't get to bored.
