Drum Roll Please ?!?!?!?!?!?!?

We went to the Dr today to do our 20 week ultrasounds where they check for any abnormalities and scan and measure all the body parts see if that little person is healthy and all, oh and find out if it is a boy or girl.

It's a BOY!!!!

We are soooooo excited. I will admit I totally thought it was gonna be a girl ever since I found out I was Preggo, my first initial feeling was it's a girl. today I was told differently and I couldn't be happier about it. I am happy he is healthy and the Dr said everything looks great. During the ultrasound he wouldn't stop moving around so he was being a little tricky on the Dr when it came time to see the sex. So we don't have a very good picture of him to show. He seems to be a squirmy little guy. I have yet to really feel him and have that distinguished, yup that was it feeling, but I know once I feel it at one point I am gonna wish he would just sit still. Until then i will just keep woundering.
We are SO grateful for this amazing blessing in our lives and we look forward to meeting the little man that's gonna steal our hearts!

Turner Falls Park







It has been a long time since I had been camping. last time I went was young women's camp when I was 17, a few years have gone by since then. Gerret gets to go camping once a month with the young men's, so he gets his fill pretty often.
We decided to go to turner falls park in Davis Oklahoma with a few good friends a couple weekends ago. It was beautiful they had trails and natural pools to swim in complete with a slide and diving board. We Hiked down the falls which was a bit slippery cold, but so worth it. we got to enjoy in the typical camping food hot dogs, tinfoil dinner for some of us and peach cobbler from a dutch over which by the way was amazing Kylie good job on that one!
we stayed one night at the park in the best spot surrounded by trees and later on that night raccoons!
It was so much fun and the weather couldn't have been better. It was nice to get away from the flat lands of Dallas and see hills and giant rocks with caves. We will defiantly have to go camping again before it gets to hot to sleep outside.

Three Awesome Years!

This past Wednesday on St.Patricks day was our three Anniversary! We decided since I don't get Saturdays off we would both take the actual day off. It was SO nice to spend time together. We went to the Dallas World Aquarium. It was beautiful they did a great job with the facility, they are a little pricey since its somewhat small but still a fun thing to do in Dallas. We got to see all kinds of fish and birds and all sorts of other animals. We went to dinner at PF Changs which was SO yummy. All and all it was a great day and the newest addition to the Gorgueiro family was born Che Daniel Gorgueiro on our anniversary that is pretty Awesome!!! Congrats to Danny and Veronica and Che!

I am so thankful to my loving husband and the man that he is to me. I am so incredibly blessed to be able to share my whole life with him and SO much more. He inspires me to be a better person and is always there for me when things get rough and challenging. I love you Gerret thank you for being my best friend and everything else that I couldn't possibly describe. You are truly the most Amazing part of my life.

Here a few pictures of the Aquarium:


This was the Sloth that didn't want to be bothered. Makes you want to watch Ice Age.
Can you find Nemo in this picture? We did.

Indianapolis

A few months back I took a trip out to Lafayette Indiana to see my best friend Caiti from High school before she went on her mission to Anchorage Alaska. We hadn't seen each other in over 7 years We always kept in touch, but have lived in other areas of the country after we graduated. It was great to see here and her family again. We had some much needed girl time, got to have a a few bonfires go to lake Michigan and the most adorable town St.Joseph off of the great lakes. see downtown Indianapolis, visit an art museum and do a little shopping. Seeing lake Michigan was like being at the beach I loved it. We also had to take a picture with the corn I have never seen so many corn fields in my life, but that is mainly what they grow in Indiana. I had never been to the great lakes before and that was awesome they are enormous to see. Here a few pictures of the view. I would love to defiantly go back and visit it was so much fun!

It's been way to long

Wow I can't believe its been over three months since I blogged last. Work has taken over our lives and we are slaves to our jobs, but we love them and things are going great for us in the big D. We love our apartment, our ward and the family around us and the new friends we have made. We have officially lived in Texas a year now. Its gown on us quite a bit, I will admit its not as easy on the eyes as California is but the people are great and there is plenty to do around here. Although we don't have time to do much but look forward to trying out a bunch of things we are interested in. like Visiting San Antonio , Austin, the Aquarium, South Padre Island, the Stock yards and many, many more.
Since I blogged last Christmas has come and gone valentines day, My birthday and our three year anniversary is approaching fast! all these past holidays except the last one were awesome. We had Gerrets parents out here with us for Christmas it was great to see them and spend time together. Valentines day was relaxing. we had a steak diner and watched The Time Traveler wife while enjoying some yummy chocolate covered strawberries! All and all these last few months have been great! I have been a slacker about taking pictures so unfortunately I don't have any pictures to post maybe next time though.
Work has kept our schedule very full. Gerrets job is amazing and he feels SO blessed that he works for such a great business. He has been able to take on a incredible amount of responsibilities in addition to what he already does. So job security is what it sounds like to me. He is really enjoying all the work he does and the cool things he is learning along the way. My job at the spa is great we are a growing spa with lots of goals and I am happy to be apart of SO many events that we host and take care of in the Mckinney community. Spring and summer are some of the busiest times through out the year in this industry. I am looking forward to staying busy and meeting new people. We both are so grateful for our jobs and the way things have worked out since we moved to Texas. Hopefully I don't take three months to post my next blog but we shall see how that goes.

What's the latest and greatest?

We've been up to a few fun things over the past month that we thought were noteworthy enough to blog about. A couple weeks ago, we saw Jim Gaffigan, the comedian, do a stand up routine at the Majestic Theatre in Dowtown Dallas. He was incredible!!! Here's a YouTube video of one of his routines (not recorded by us):





Pretty funny stuff huh? Well it was sooooooooo much better in person.


A couple of days ago Sarah got some free tickets to the Dallas Stars hockey game. It was a lot of fun and even went to a shootout, but Dallas lost, so oh well.


For halloween Sarah and I went to a party at her co-worker Sarah's house. We had a pretty clever costume combination of ...

That's right! You hungry for breakfast now? Because I am! Bacon and eggs baby. I chose bacon specifically because of the Jim Gaffigan video above. Well, that's the latest and greatest. Get back to you soon!

Summer Update

It has been quite a while since I have posted and I wanted to give a brief summer update on what we have been doing. Mainly Gerret and I are working hard at both of our jobs and enjoying what we do. We have finally gotten to explore a bit in the Dallas area and see what this huge city has to offer. So far we have gotten to check out the Fort worth Zoo, which was way fun. The animals were pretty lazy though. We didn't see a whole lot of activity, but it was cool to be somewhat up close with some of the worlds most dangerous animals. We were also able to go canoeing down the Brazos River with some friends. The river is about two hours from where we live. This was something I haven't experienced yet and it was so cool! We did an eight mile canoe ride down the river that took about three hours and enjoyed the scenery around us. There were plenty of trees and random cows close by. It was so peaceful and relaxing. We would definitely do it again.
