We miss summer

We sure do miss summer around here.  It went from nice weather to COLD almost instantly.

 

Sorry for the lack of blogging.  Life hasnt slowed down at all since we moved in.  House is still noway near where we want it to be as far as decorating and such but we will get there......

 

Here's some fast updates:

 

Aiden turned 5!  This year we were able to have his party at our new house!  He wanted a firetruck theme.

 

Went to Chuck E Cheese and Aiden hit some jackpots...I mean really?!  A 5 year old?

 

Tickets are just spewing out right now...not even an exaggeration LOL

 

Made a new wreath for the front door

 

Scrapbooked some

 

Grass grew!!!!

 

Aiden got a new playground and hes been in heaven!

 

 

I promise it wont be so long before I blog again!

I'm back!!

Hello everyone

(any readers left?! LOL)

 

Hopefully some of you check back now that the house is done, were still working on some boxes (photos and old baby items and junk).  But we are able to breathe and are getting things done.  I will be posting some house pics soon but for now I'll just share our mini vacation pictures later.

 

Here is what has happened since I last posted:

• Our well water is great now.  No more smelly water or iron.  Wasn't cheap to get there but I absolutely love drinking our water now and I never thought I would say that LOL
• We got satellite tv and Internet back.  Internet took awhile but we got it and its great!
• We just purchased some storage items for the basement and garage so hopefully that will start to look better.  We were at a standstill till we got storage items.
• Scrapbook room is finished!!!

We still do not have new furniture or even a dining room table but I am being Miss Picky and I still cannot find something.  I know what I want but I cant find it LOL.

 

We love the house.  I love being here and it defiantly feels like home more and more each day.  Aiden starts his new preschool on Wednesday so I am praying that goes well and he enjoys it.

 

We also took a mini vacation over a weekend not too long ago.  Aiden has been begging to go to the beach and he just didn't get that it took a long time to get there. 

 

So Brent surprised us and booked us a room in St. Joe Michigan.

I swear if you had blind folded me and just showed me the lake I would have thought it was an ocean. It was wonderful!

 

I cannot believe summer is almost over...here is a quick recap.

 

Closed in June 2013 on our new home

He was so dirty at the end of the night.  I swear I still have sand in my washer

We did a dune ride and it was SO MUCH FUN!!  The best thing we did on the trip.

 

 

Ended the trip with a stop at the candy store.

 

We have had such a wonderful summer!



Alpaca Farm

Hello Everyone!

This isnt crafting related but more family related!  Last weekend I had a Stampin Up party at my grandmas and afterwards we went over to Brents parents house where we all went to an Alpaca farm in a nearby city close to their home.

Aiden loved them! 

I fell in love with the dogs there...so big!  

Had so much fun!  This weekend we are enjoying time at home.  Yesterday was Brent and I's 5 year anniversary....I love him so much!  I am very blessed in life! We were going to go out of town for the weekend but Brents mom, who was going to watch Aiden for us wasnt feeling too well and somehow an active 3 year old and being sick...well..it doesnt go together very well LOL.
