Oink Oink!
































































Last weekend Marq & I attended our first Pig Roast. It was definitely interesting... I was a little uneasy with the whole thing. I had a LOT of questions about the process and I think my concerned expression amused some of the guys. They cooked two pigs, one over an oven made of bricks and one in a special pig-roasting box. We all had a great time and everyone seemed to enjoy the meat. I could only handle a tiny taste of Marq's BUT I DID TRY IT! Anyway, we had a lot of fun here are the pics.

"You're Gonna Miss This"

"You're gonna miss this. You're gonna want this back. You're gonna wish these days hadn't gone by so fast. These are some good times. So take a good look around. You may not know it now. But you're gonna miss this." ~Trace Adkins

I was reminded this week of how precious life is and how quickly it can be taken away. I am a big believer of living in the now. Living life to it's fullest and enjoying each moment we have. I am so thankful to have Marq & Chevy in my life! Although we are just starting out our life together and we have so much left to do, see, experience and accomplish "the present moment is the field on which the game of life happens. " It may just be the 3 of us, but for now... this is exactly where we want to be. At times our lives get crazy, but it's OUR life. We are a family!

More great quote from "A New Earth"...
"In the seeing of who you are not, the reality of who you are emerges by itself."
"Whatever you fight, you strengthen, and what you resist, persists."
"Awareness is the power that is concealed within the present moment"
"When you live in a world deadened by mental abstraction, you don't see the aliveness of the universe anymore."

Congratulations Chris & Jen
