Starting Over

Welcome to our new blog! We tried this when we first moved over, but it fizzled after a while. Now, with the McBaby on the way (no, it's not a McDonald's sandwich), we figured it was a good time to start it up again. So hopefully you'll be hearing from us pretty regularly over the next few months as we do our normal life stuff and get ready for the little guy's arrival sometime around June 28.

We've just had a visit from our fantastically crazy friend Charmaine, who boldly came all the way from L.A. to freeze in the wind and rain of Belfast, Dublin, and Scotland. We topped that off Saturday night by singing and playing in a worship team concert at our church, and then spending Easter Sunday and Monday in Downpatrick with our friends the Branneys. As you can tell, we're taking it easy these days...

For those of you who are wondering how the pregnancy is progressing, here are a couple of wee pictures from Easter Sunday (Lori is at 26 weeks):




And just to make you jealous, we'll leave you with a couple of recent shots from Nor'n Ire. ;)
