Yucky yucky Wallpaper




I love my apartment here in AR. It is roomy has nice beautiful trees outside the windows, and my mom really helped me decorate the place nicely. However, I can't be completely satisfied because for whatever reason, the apartment managment decided to put wallpaper up in the apartments. Which gives the apartment an 80's feeling to it. Unfortunately, none of my bathroom decor match the wallpaper. Oh, well! Other than that I couldn't be happier with the place. (Oh, besides the occasional hole in the kitchen floor).

A new addition

On August 11, 2007 at 10:28. Blake Matthew Backus was born. He weighed 6lbs. 9oz. and was 19in. long. He is named after one of Matt's really good friend Blake Cook. We love being parents and of course we think he is the cutest baby to ever be born on this earth!



Two very handsome men!



My sister-in-law Jen. Took these pictures of Blake when he was 9 days old. It was hard to keep him up on the towels, but eventually he got the hang of it.
What a sweet baby boy!
