Baby Karlee



We need to leave the poor girl alone, but it's so fun to dress her up.


The cute family!


Aubrey and baby Karlee





Look at her cute shoes. Everything is a little too big so it usually just stays on long enough to take some pictures.






My first time holding Karlee.


I'm an aunt! Karlee Lynn Vocana was born June 19 at 11:15 am. She weighed 7 lbs 5 oz and was 20 1/2 inches long. I'm down in Vegas right now visiting, and she is so much fun. We're having so much fun holding her, dressing her up, and doing lots of photo shoots. Isn't she cute?

We Survived!

I have never considered myself a runner, and I for sure don't look like a runner. Two years ago my friends had to talk me into/sign me up for a 5K. Who would have thought that 2 short years and a few races later I would not only be running but putting together a team for Wasatch Back. Click here http://www.ragnarrelay.com/wasatchback/index.php for more info on the race. I don't really think I can adequately describe it. Our team did great-better than I expected. My first 2 legs were great. My last leg, 6 miles of a gradual incline in the 93 or higher degree weather, nearly killed me. Even with all that, the lack of sleep, the 2 days in a van, the no showers, the port-a-potties, the tears, the laughs, the team support, the friendships, the fun, etc. the race was awesome. I loved it. Our team survived with no major problems. It was so great I already signed up a team for next year. Anyone interested?

End of an Era


This post is a couple months after the fact, but it's part of the reason for the blog. I woke up the morning of Michelle and Andrew's wedding and realized life as I have known it for the past 5 years is over. In my mind I thought today is the end of an era-an era of my life I will never forget and one that has changed my life forever. After that realization I also decided to start a blog.
I've spent the past 5 years as an add-on/adopted sister to the Martin sisters. With 2 of the 4 of us now married, Nettie and I can hardly be the Martins. I guess we're just Nettie and Aubs.

Finally!

I have been saying for far too long I was going to start a blog. I am finally doing it. I can't guarantee it will be exciting or that I will update often, but I'll do my best. I feel like I keep in touch with everyone through their blogs so now hopefully you can keep in touch with me. Happy reading!
