It is hard to believe that it has been since July since we updated the blog and we apologize for that break. We have two big changes to report to you all.

Chad and Erin got engaged on August 5, 2013 and are planning to get married on November 2nd. From what we are told that the wedding will be filmed on 19 kids and counting.

    Chad couldn’t make it to Tennessee to see Erin for Valentine’s Day, so he sent 3 dozen roses and a poem that he wrote, “101 Reasons I Love Erin!” 

   But better late than never, he was able to join us for a belated “I Love You” / Valentine’s Day date night in March. Dad, Mom, Alyssa, and John Webster all tagged along, enjoying a night on the town together!… Making memories!!
