Happy Birthday Mom!

This weekend we spent some time with the family celebrating mom's birthday! Amazingly she is 29 again!

Caramal Apples and More Pumpkins!

This last week we spent some time with friends having a great fall night. We made hot apple cider, caramal apples, and carved pumpkins. These are the caramal apples before all the caramal and candy slipped off of them.

Before and after the carving took place!

Up North

Scott and I escaped to the great northwoods this last weekend to visit his Nana and Grandpa. We enjoyed the colorful view and went to pumpkinfest. We enjoyed good food and lots of relaxation, after a few stressful weeks of work.

October Up Date

As I was reading Krystin and Kyle's blog she made me feel guilty about not being a regular poster so here is what is happening lately...

Scott learned a new machine at work and will eventually have to teach he whole lab how to work it. He has also started attending Facilitator Excellence meetings. He is the only lab tech attending, everyone else is in management. I am very proud of him! He has also been keeping up with his training for the EMT work he does.

I have been keeping busy with the many different jobs I have. Swimming lessons are going well. The YMCA is getting a little stressful so please pray for me to have a great attitude about everything. There is a month left of swimming and the girls are starting to feel the effects of school and sports. The first weekend of October I made a trip down to Cincinnatti with Noelle to visit Stephanie. We played dominos, picked pumpkins at a pumpkin farm, carved them, went to Jungle Jims, a large grocery store with food from countries around the world, and saw a comedian at the comedy club.
