Fall Fun!

Daddy's gone and the family will play!

Daddy went to Kelly B's bach party this past weekend and what I thought was going to be a very low key weekend turned out to be a very busy weekend! The funny part is that I did not realize how busy I was until I spoke to Suzie this afternoon. Derek left on Friday so... we had to pack him, I had to run errands, I wanted to clean before he left and once we dropped him off the kids and I went to Costco then headed home. Saturday we headed down to Auntie Em's house to watch Hailee and Ty's soccer game, then went to their house along with Papa B, headed home where Nana went with us to the store, I then came home and got ready to go out with the ladies (that was a great time and thank you Mar for setting it up), and by 3am I was home!!! Sunday...I was recovering from my vodka tonic spree, Daddy came home, pumpkin patch, family birthday party, Auntie Sara and her family came over, Saige and Auntie Chow came over, and clean up wrapped up the day. MAN I AM TIRED WRITING THAT! Only a few pics to enjoy:)

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday Jo, Poppie, Robert, Hailee, and Emilee! On Sunday we celebrated August and Sept birthdays on my side, however Em and the kids could not make it. Even though there was not all of us here we had pizza, cake, and a great time!! I think it was the most laid back time that I have had in a long time and ya know what I loved it! With the addition of Lillian and trying to get everything ready for her it was so nice to just sit and hang out watching the kids play and the fam hold the baby!

My First Time At the Park with the Kids!!

For Our Troops

Here are some pictures of what a small request can result in. In baby sister Patty asked my mom to see if her law firm would donate dry goods to send to the "Mountain Warriors" over in Afghan (Army troops over on mountain side). Yes, the military gives them food, but sometimes a little more is always a good thing...especially when they hike up and down mountains all day!!! Patty got enough food and money to send 12 boxes!! I just wanted to say thanks to the Brian Cave Law Firm, my mom, and Patty for thinking of troops who just need a little extra to make life a whole heck of a lot better in the dessert. Oh, and I must say these items were not for Patty's husband Clint, but for her friend's husband Dare.
