The Life & Happenings of the Hupp's

Mexico!

aaronandadrielle — Tue, 18 Aug 2009 18:18:12 +0000

So Aaron & I just got back from Cancun! We’ve never actually been to Mexico not on a mission trip before so this was our first vacation there! (other than my senior ‘missions’ trip which was mostly a vacation…) My parents took the whole Nelson clan down there to celebrate my Dad’s retirement last April! Thank you to Dad & Mom for a fantasmic vacation!

It was pretty stinkin hot, but Aaron & I’s room had a pretty sweet air conditioner that worked mighty fine! It’s a strange feeling to sweat when you’re just standing. My brother ‘likes’ that feeling… RIGHT MIKE!

Baby!

It’s a GIRL! Yesterday we got to see her cute little head and tiny hands and tiny feet at the ultrasound! She was all folded up with her feet above her head, she must be a limber girl! She did have her legs crossed for the first 40min so we couldn’t see whether she was a Princess or a Dinosaur! The nurse left and told me to walk around a bit then she’d come back and check some more things… a lot of sweet EGYPTIAN WALKING moves later she revealed herself! Aaron was talking to her saying this is your father, i love you but if you know what’s good for you you better open up! haha she was obidient so that’s good!

Here are some pictures (basically for my Mom and Sisters to see!)

I'm not sure how you can tell.....

A Light Boulder with a dash of Fort Collins

So we went to Madison on April 28th to go see the Thermals play and we went early so we could go to Trader Joes and find some Record Store for Aaron. So lots of people were like, Oh you’re going to Madison they’re a bunch of liberal hippies. And both Aaron and I were like ok that sounds good, lots of people in Colorado are like that maybe it will be cool. Not that We agree with anything they do/say… So we get there and it’s totally like a light Boulder with a dash of Fort Collins. So needless to say we were enjoying being in a place that reminded us of home.

I never realized how many crazed liberal, barnes & noble loving, starbucks drinking, apple computer using, sandle wearing, health nuts live in Fort Collins until I move away and what do I miss? all the ‘he’s not my president’ bumper stickers! HA.

But we’re glad to be back in Green Bay!

Check out pictures of our trip here!

Angry & very confused…

What the heck does ‘blogroll’ mean??????? I’m sick of seeing it everywhere with no explanation. Am I just supposed to have an innate understanding of this? Why can’t the thing just say ‘other people I know that have blogs’ That would be way more helpful. Wait, maybe there is a way to do that and change it to say that. If so then someone please tell me how I can do such a thing!

Ok, you might say hey AdriElle you dunder, go look it up! Well I just did and this is what I came up with at Dictionary.com:

So We’re Havin a Baby!!

We are officially 7 weeks pregnant as of today! Hooray! The impossible has happend (see AdriElle for full explanation). God really is real and faithful!! AdriElle is due December 11! Sorry it took us so long to post, AdriElle’s parents were here with Alexa & the kids and we’ve had tons of doctor appointments. So alls well here in Green bay. how are you?

I just realized something embarassing…

aaronandadrielle — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 16:22:17 +0000

I’ve become obsessed with cats. I’m like a crazy cat woman! I go to the store and I see a picture of a cat on something and I shout out to Aaron “look how cute this cat is!!” I never in my life thought I would enjoy the presence of a cat, but my life has changed.

I updated the pictures on our website and suddenly realized that all the pictures from March were of Oedipus. We just have no friends here so we just fancy taking pictures of how uproariously silly our kitty is.

The next thing I need to do is purchase a fun cat shirt like my America one. And wear it all the time. I’m sure my parents would disown me if they haven’t already for owning a cat!

He likes boxes…

Update

We have been in Wisconsin for almost two months, but it seems as if we have been away from home much much longer. It has been a learning experience, and hasn’t always been fun, but the Lord has been so so so good to us. We have been holding our youth group on Saturday nights at a school, and every week it seems to go better.

Thanks for all your prayers everyone!! More writing later!

Our New Life In Wisconsin

aaronandadrielle — Sun, 22 Feb 2009 03:58:54 +0000

So we moved up to De Pere, Wisconsin (basically Green Bay) a couple of weeks ago from Loveland, Colorado (basically Ft Collins). The move went great, thanks to my brother Isaiah and my dad. It was also made easier by Matt and Angela, Adri’s sister who lives in Iowa, who let us stay at their house on the way up. When we got to our new home in De Pere we had a ton of people ( the entire Lewin family and Gause family) come help us move our stuff in, which was a HUGE blessing. We had a ton of people help us pack up at home, thanks to Alexa, Princess Tammie, Tess, Parker, Dillon, and our Moms. It seems like everywhere we go we are supernaturaly blessed with people who love us and help us. We appreciate all of it so much, and love you all so much!

Now we are settling in to our new home and starting our new jobs, and so far so good. We have already had our first youth group meeting, and will start meeting Saturday nights at a school in De Pere. Pray for God to move in a mighty way in our services. We are very excited to get to know the kids and start our youth ministry.

Other than that, AdriElle is Pastor Jerry’s Administrative Assistant and working part time at the sandwhich shop in which I also work at, it is superfun to work together. She is enjoying it a lot, she is good at office stuff. We just got a new kitten yesterday at the Appleton Animal Shelter! His name is Oedipus Charzard Hupp!! (Oedipus, like you know Oedipus Rex, the Ancient Greek play….look it up dummy!) he is pretty much the coolest cat ever. We will put some more pictures of him on our website soon but i’ll put one on here for now. We’ll write more after our first service this saturday, I am going to steal everything Pastor Bob ever said about compassion because it changed my life! So why shouldn’t it change theirs! Amen?

The AJ SHIRT

aaronandadrielle — Wed, 11 Feb 2009 22:07:26 +0000

So this is the A.J. shirt that Pastor Bob made to sell to the Jr. High. This is the coolest thing anyone has ever done for me, and was double cool for Adrielle and I because Pastor Bob gave us all the money for the shirts sold, plus more. We are so grateful to Pastor Bob and Princess Tammie, and anybody that bought a t-shirt and told us that you love us. We love and miss everyone in Colorado, and can’t wait to see you again!

In the year 2008, the following were awesome:

Movies: The Dark Knight-my and AdriElle’s new favorite movie of all time. Tonight I will see it for the fifth time in theatres.

WALL-E-the second best movie of the year, I actually was crying because of how precious that darn robot was.

Be Kind, Rewind-such a cool idea, and it was pretty funny. It warmed my heart to see the neighborhood come together to make a movie.

Iron Man-I was suprised at how much I enjoyed this movie, Robert Downey Jr. is a great actor.

And that was about it. I’m sure I would have liked a few I missed, like Burn After Reading, but for the most part there was not much I’m sad I missed. I did watch quite a few movies that were no good. The following go in the garbage list-Indiana Jones 4, Prince Caspian, Beverly Hills Chiuaua (AdriElle and I were babysitting and did not see this for our own viewing pleasure).

Books: I didn’t read many books that came out this year, but here’s what I read and liked-

Ten Books That Screwed Up The World, and Five Others That Didn’t Help-Benjamin Wiker

World War 1:The Rest Of The Story And How It Affects You Today-Richard Maybury

Federal Husband-Douglas Wilson

Animal Farm-George Orwell

Unveiling Islam-Ergun Mehmet Caner and Emir Fethi Caner

Music: It was a good year for classic rock because I got a record player and bought lots of old records. Here’s a small list of what I enjoyed, new and old this year.

Beck-Modern Guilt, One Day As A Lion-One Day As A Lion, Dianne Reeves-When You Know, ZZ Top-Tres Hombres, Led Zeppelin-II, H2O-Nothing To Prove, Weezer-Red Album(I have it on a clear red vinyl!), Dave Brubeck-Take Five, Ornette Coleman- At The “Golden Circle” in Stockholm, Ceremony-Still Nothing Moves You, Black Keys- Attack and Release, Radiohead- In Rainbows, New Found Glory/International Superheros of Hardcore- Tip Of The Iceberg ep, Foxy Shazam- Introducing Foxy Shazam, Love- Forever Changes (thanks to my good friend Jerry Cuba), and lots of Queen, Elton John, John Coltrane, Foo Fighters, and other music AdriElle and I can agree on listening to when we play cards and Monopoly together.
