So, I started this blog to keep everyone up to date on our little man. It has had its good times and lately I have been slacking...BAD! Not because Joseph isn't doing well or that he isn't a ball of fun...because I/We have been having a BLAST with Joseph!
So first things first...Joseph is a BLAST!!!! His personality has really begun to show and BOY ARE WE IN FOR SOME ADVENTURES!! He is a little clown and loves to make us laugh!! This month he has begun to walk with more courage and we can't get him to settle down. We have had so much fun!!! He loves to have us read books to him, act like complete lunatics, and sing very silly songs!!! If any of you remember Raffi from long ago...I suggest you find him on iTunes or Amazon and download the song "Joshua Giraffe" it is one of Joseph's FAVE songs. He acts out the animal sounds and "sings" along with the song...it's great!!! I will have to get it on video soon and post it so you can see our little star!!! Along with inheriting my musical talents he has also inherited Mark's skill at sports...he loves to swing his bat-make that anything he can get his little hands on...and I think he may be a lefty just like Daddy!!!
On the married life...can you believe that this coming Thursday, yes Thanksgiving, will be Our 4th Wedding Anniversary?!?!? I am so BLESSED to have Mark in my life...I never thought my parents knew what they were talking about when they said, "You will know when you have met the one God has planned for you." I always thought they made that up to make me feel better after a breakup or when I was feeling "ugly."
They were...can I even admit to this...RIGHT! Mark literally walked into my life and my life as I knew it would never be the same!! Thanks to all my friends who wouldn't let me give up on this shy, quiet, tall, small town boy...I wouldn't have the life I have today if it wasn't for him!
Here are a few pics from our wedding!!!
Saying our vows and me trying not to cry

Of course I HAD to sing with the Mariachi band...there were birthdays to celebrate...and I HAD to sing to them!
Mr. & Mrs. Mark Allen Ulrich (excuse the silly smile I have on my face...Mark looks great as always!)
Before the ceremony begins
Dancing with my Daddy and yes we started crying before the music even started and we cried the whole dance!
Me and my wonderful Husband!!
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!!
