BOO.

Here's a sneak at our costumes...a construction worker and his road sign (pic is dark cause Ry's vest was too reflective with the flash - haha), and a ref and a NEB football player! We had a pretty fun day!!



Check out my facebook album for more pictures from the day!

Nate-o and Scipp

What wonderful friends to take their fall break (and 1 year anniv. trip) to come visit lil ol me...well, and the boys...and Ry. We had a pretty great time. They cooked two FABULOUS meals, which we will totally be making again, played with the boys, shopped around, showed Nate some of the town (from the van cause it was raining the whole time- boo), Nate fixed our computer, got some good catchin up time in, got a night out to eat without the boys, watched a movie, made about 20 trips to the grocery store- haha....many things. It's always great to see them, even though it's been since last xmas since we've been together in person, you know you have great friends when you don't miss a beat even when it's been a long time. Two of my favorites...thanks for comin guys!

Fun in the sun?

well...not really. but who says you can't have fun without the sun!?! Schoony's brought over a little treat for the boys to keep thru the winter months in case they (or I- haa) need to burn off some energy. Thanks guys!

Tis the season!

When I was pregnant with the boys, I had Emily make a belly cast of my stomach when I was huge, so this time I had to do something crazy again, you know....just to keep it up. This was SO funny and she did such a good job! Thanks Emily for putting up with me. =) Happy Holloween a week early!

It's been a year.

OK. SO, since we've been on vacation to Georgia and Erin and Josh followed us back for a time, there has been much happening in our little world and I have not reported. Shame Shame. BUT, I'm not going to because ERIN did such a wonderful job. haha. So click on her name and check it out. =)

In other news, here's what the boys enjoy doing lately...
Ethan checkin out the track.

Start at the beginning...

And drive all the way around. hahaa




Ethan pretty much likes anything with wheels. AAANNNNDDDDDDD this is what Garrett's good at... MOVIES.





We hear the occasional breakouts of laughter, as you see in one of the pics, during funny (and sometimes NOT funny) parts of the movie....and he likes to hold his little toy for the corresponding film, for example: the red monster during Monster's INC. haha. AND, I can't believe how much he KNOWS the movies, he might say a word or two along with the character at the right time, and he always knows when the music will start with a song he likes. Memory skills at work early I guess! NOT pictured- would be his obsession with shape games...it is unbelievable to watch his mind work when he can find the right spot for a shape. He's fast too!! My friends and some magazines have helped me come up with a few good toddler activities that they totally LOVE, like playdough (hopefully I'll get some pics of that soon- SO CUTE), and pretend cooking, coloring, you know...all that fun stuff that's more fun for me probably. ha. And their words are comin along too, which is ALWAYS more helpful for me. =) to me, more words = less screaming for things. =)

We have fun. =) AND, I have 5 weeks left, which I'm REALLY EXCITED ABOUT. More excited because then I can bend at the waist again. haha. It definately goes faster with other little people and friends to pass the time with. Speaking of, tomorrow we're going to the pumpkin patch that has a bunch of fun little things to do that the boys will LOVE, so pray for good weather and happy boys! That's gonna be a good picture taking time for sure!! Stay tuned!
