Amanda's last day of school!

After 8 years of teaching, Amanda will be taking an extended break from school to have the baby. She has done such a good job with those kids and had an amazing impact on their lives (not that I am biased or anything:). Here is a quick picture of her this morning as she was heading out the door for her last day.

Amanda's family

Since I'm 'showcasing' pictures of my brothers, it's only appropriate that I show off Amanda's family. This is a picture of Amanda with her parents, George and Mary Frances, as well as her sister, Stephanie, and brother, Andrew.

This picture was taken in May of 2007 at Anne and Cory's wedding in Lake Martin, AL.

Dave's Brothers

By the way, have I mentioned that I have two really cool brothers? I'll add pictures of their kids in the future, but today I wanted to add a couple of pictures of my wonderful brothers:-)

Joshua Daniel Creason- future 'Pastor Extraordinaire' (ok, so that won't be his 'official' title, but he is extraordinary in my book)

AND... Matthew Aaron Creason- master partaker of beverages from large glasses and very talented graphic & web designer

Visitors in town for Amanda's baby shower

I was able to find a more recent picture of Amanda...this picture was provided by our dear friend, Aunt Linda Grinnell. It was taken February 10 at my parent's house in Carlisle.

From left to right the picture shows:

Stephanie Creason (Amanda's sister)

Lily Creason (Stephanie's youngest daughter)

Cliff and Linda Grinnell (our friends from Alabama)

Mary Frances Kurz (Amanda's Mom)

Yours truly with Amanda

We have a new nephew!

Elijah Steven Kurz was born yesterday to Amanda's brother, Andrew, and his wife, Ellie. Here is a link to pictures on their website:

Congratulations Andrew and Ellie!

Let's get started

With less than 2 weeks to go, I figured I'd get started with a simple blog so that we can record some of the details on 'baby Creason'. I am planning to post pictures, as well, so that we can have a common site for pictures for our little guy or gal.

Unfortunately, I don't have a lot of 'Amanda in pregnancy' pictures, but I will work on that. Here is a picture taken at our house on Christmas Eve. At the time this picture was taken, Amanda was about 7 months pregnant.
