Ola!

Good morning or afternoon, whatever time fits at the time you are reading this :). I am starting a blog to keep our family in the loop with our little family happenings ( you know, the old timey ones that don't have facebook .. yes those ;) ). We still love you guys! This is also for those family members that we hardly get to see due to distance! Here is a start ..

I met Austin in highschool, spanish class to be exact --hince the title --He was a cutie. Austin asked me to go to the Seafood Festival with him and some friends one weekend. You could say this was our first date. He wrapped his arms around me and asked me to "go out" with him and of course I said yes. October 16, 2004, we started dating.

4 hour conversations, road trips, dinner and movie, dates after dates, passing notes in the hallway, hanging out at the Bickley's after school, graduation, getting an apartment together, college and then came a surprise ...

March 14, 2007 we found out we were expecting a little one. Gasp, was the first reaction -- then tears -- then how do I tell everyone? It all turned out ok -- Austin was at every doctors appoitment and stood beside me every step of the way. The first few ultrasounds we had, they could not determine the sex because our baby was being stubborn and had its legs crossed everytime. We took a trip down to Florida to have a 3D ultrasound and it was a GIRL. Allison Leigh Bouton (still stubborn, by the way). She was due on Halloween but of course she was stubborn and decided to come a week later, November 7, 2007 8:52 p.m 8lbs 1oz, and our entire world has changed since that date. She is now three years old and full of personality.

Austin proposed on June 16, 2007 in Forsyth Park, Savannah, Georgia with a poem he made. We started to plan a big wedding and Austin said one day "Let's just go married at the courthouse." .. So we went to a friend's office that is a local attorney in town but also a Judge, and we said I DO :) (We'll just have a wedding later).

Austin is a Sales Rep for ARS. He loves his job and does great at it. I'm a Paralegal at Hart & Associates Law Firm (only the best firm in town) and I love my job and work with great people. There's a little fill in. I hope you all enjoy our posts and pictures.

With Love,

The Bouton's :)
