What's New?

So... Dale talked RJ and I into creating this blog so we could keep everyone updated on what is happening. I am acutely aware that people are way more interested in hearing about the upcoming baby than they are in hearing about RJ and I, so I finally caved... However, if you want the juicy baby details, then you'll have to suffer through some of the more mundane parts of our life! =) Sorry! I'll try to keep it short though and include lots of pictures. So here's the latest in a nutshell....

I'm pregnant, it's a girl, and I'm due in June. We got a new puppy, and she's way cute. The culinary team that I coach won first at state so we are going to nationals in San Diego in April. RJ is still studying like crazy and enjoying law school. He's almost done with his first year, so we are excited! Now for the pictures... They are kinda in random order because I don't want to take the time right now to figure out how to rearrange them... =) But enjoy anyway!

Some of my culinary team being their goofy selves. They keep me laughing.
A couple of my students threw me an awesome baby shower. It was a lot of fun, and it was very sweet of them. I got all sorts of cute stuff...
My sweet new puppy. Not only is she gorgimous, but she's really smart and a lot of fun. I know everyone thinks we are crazy for getting another dog, but how can you say no to that face? We stuck with the super hero theme and named her Elektra.

This is the latest family picture that we have... We'll update it when the baby comes along...
This was the winning menu at state competition. A quail egg crostini with a balsamic side salad, sauteed pheasant with cous cous and broccolini, and a dark chocolate mascarpone cheesecake.


These are the girls on my team. They are awesome!


The culinary team and the knowledge management team with our winning trophies. It was the first time in Wyoming history that the same school took first in both events.


I named this picture "me and my big fat belly", and it's only going to get bigger... Lucky for me, I have an excuse! =) My due date is June 12th, and RJ and I are both super excited for this new addition to our family. We are going to name her Mylee Sue Walker.
And that's about it... We'll keep you updated =)
