Mother's day

This...


Is what Brandon gave me for mothers day. Words cannot describe how happy it made me! I cry every time I look at it.

Hope you all had a great mothers day!

Our "Thanksgiving"

Friday night we made pizzas--thanks Melissa--a fun and yummy idea!

Aubri made this one by herself

Saturday was filled with croquet and swimming

The table decor...courtesy of Melissa!

My first time making turkey. It smoked for the first 30 minutes while it roasted, but the finished product turned out really pretty and yummy! I was pretty proud of myself!

Election Day!

So the kids have been learning about the election process at school, and they got a chance to "vote" for President today. Blake said he voted for Obama "because he likes basketball" and Aubri chose McCain "because he doesn't have yucky teeth." Hilarious! Those reasons are as good as any I could have come up with!

So we are finally getting all settled into our new place and I figured I better get some pictures up while I am STILL Pregnant (While I still have time that is). It is still a work in progress and I don't have everything unpacked yet but Here is our humble little Abode!

Our house (in the middle of our street)
I can't get the song out of my head for some reason!!
(I bet I got it stuck in your head now too didn't I?)

Front door (I am just so happy to actually have a rug
and wreath I had to put this on here)
