Making it Official.....

Since I've let some clues out about 'something' in earlier posts and want to create a ticker on the top of my blog for 'something'... it's time to make an official blog post about 'THIS SOMETHING'!
This Kurtz family is expecting a new addition to our family... baby Kurtz is to arrive around March 30th, 2011!

He's in there kickin' back... being a good baby so far when it comes to ultrasounds! We have gotten some great pictures of HIM so far.

"HIM"... so, the sonographer said that there are some 'sticky outy' parts... and that her guess would be a boy! She also said it could go either way at this point since it is early. Personally, I'm going on IT'S A BOY! ...since I found out this early that DJ was going to be a boy and it was right! AWESOME!!!! ...a buddy for DJ!

FLOODING!

Luckily at our house, we are safe from any major issues related to flooding... but houses just 5 minutes from us were being gutted from all the rain!

Here are two pictures that flooded the southbound traffic of the highway right by our house.

This looks like a beautiful sunset at a lake... but really it is about 1-2 feet of water on the highway and a field.

This is a walking bridge across the river right near our house... covered in branches and other debree... it is usually a good 7-10 feet above the river water level.

This picture is taken from the same place as the picture above, just looking in the opposite direction... which is the driving bridge southbound traffic that is flooded just to the left... this driving bridge is also usually 6-10 above the normal river water level.
