I have an announcement to make...

Two announcements really!!!!

Firstly, I just found out this morning that my sister Kirbi is pregnant with her SECOND girl!!!! Congrats Kirbi, Joe, and BIG sister Lillabeth!!! I am so excited for them!!! And I know Lillie is super excited as well!!! The baby is due Feb 26th and I am already planning my trip to Boston the first part of March. :)

Secondly, I found out last week that my brother DJ, and his wife Amy Jo, are expecting their THIRD baby in May!!! Congrats to them!! They already have two adorable Hinchey Boys and I can't wait to find out what they are going to have, although, my bet is another boy!!! I'll be in AZ for two weeks in November and I'm looking forward to spending some quality time with my adorable nephews, Cole & Jake!

I love being an Aunt, it is honestly the greatest thing in the world (so Far)!!! I know that when I have my own kids I will think that actually being a mom is pretty spectacular!!! Until then...Hooray for siblings with kids to spoil and send home!!!! :)

Pictures of my niece and nephews on the Hinchey side:
Lillabeth Ann Mason (Kirbi & Joe's First Girl!) She'll be four on Dec. 6th
David Cole Hinchey (DJ & Amy Jo's oldest boy) He just turned two on Sept. 22
Jacob Nelson Hinchey (DJ & Amy Jo's 2nd boy) He'll be one on Dec. 7th

Lunch Date...

Matthew's been super busy lately and it seems like I hardly get to see him. He's always working late on homework and catching up on deadlines for work. We went on a cute lunch date today to the University Mall Food Court. I know it's romantic, but it was convenient for both of us, as Matthew's work is just down the block and I had an excuse to purchase some things at my favorite store, Forever XXI. We had a great time just getting to spend a little time together and I took a few pictures of us (I'm still loving our new haircuts, & I can't get enough). I am TOTALLY in LOVE with my husband, as it should be! He is so wonderful and I am lucky to have such a hard working, adorable hubby! :)

Okay, these aren't the BEST pictures, but you get the idea. I'll post cuter ones soon! :)

Both of us POST haircut.

Close up of my hair cut...again, not the cutest, but I DO love the hair!

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

I've finally finished!!!!! Last night at 10:30pm I finished the Harry Potter series. It was a great book with lots of unexpected surprises, but naturally I would have had things work out differently, as I'm sure most readers would have!!!! I will recommend this series to everyone I know! Hooray for Harry Potter!!!!!!

More Invitations

I've had a few people ask me to do more invitations/announcements. The first is a sample for a family in my ward who is expecting their second little girl in a few weeks. I love this one, and hope I get the chance to do it for them. We may tweak the final print a little, of course it will actually have a picture of THEIR baby, but wanted to post my new design. This family loved the idea of a Lady Bug theme and wanted to put "Our little Lady has arrived" on the announcement. I didn't want to go too over the top with the lady bugs, so I just kept it simple.



This is a Baby Shower Invitation to my Sister-in-law's baby Shower. I went all out on this one and came up with another new design. I LOVE it!!! It took quite a bit of time to make 40 of them as there are 5 different layers, but I still enjoy doing it!! Hopefully everybody else will enjoy these as well!

My Honey....

Matthew wakes up with crazy hair most mornings as it's getting so long. I had a headband lying on the kitchen table on Saturday Morning and this was the outcome...

crazy morning hair + sillyness = my husband!!!!!
