4+4= 1 Big Happy Family!!

It’s been awhile since I’ve blogged so be prepared for a lot catching up, ready….here we go!

 

We recently received 4 new house guests.  My parents decided to build a new house… well, long story short, their old house sold MUCH quicker then they thought, so the end of September my dad, mom, sister Ashlee and brother Brad moved into the basement (not to mention 2 dogs, and 3 hermit crabs)  We are LOVING every minute of it though!! The boys are in heaven being able to see grandma and grandpa and Ash and Brad everyday, and I am am loving the built in babysitters!! j/k  Here is some pictures of the progress of their new house, it should be done around the middle of November (just in time for mom to have us over for a yummy Thanksgiving dinner!)  They are going to be really close to us too, only about 10 minutes away!  I need to get new pictures because they now have they cabinets in. 

 

 

 

My beautiful little sister had her 19th birthday on October 7th.  I am so incredible lucky to have her as my sister, she is so amazing I love her sooo much!!  We went bowling during the day and had pizza at the Pi for dinner.

A delicious red velvet cake from nothing’ bunt cakes is a perfect way to end the day

 

 

Our little baby boy turned 2 on October 8th.  He is such a fun little boy, full of mischief, and has the cutest smile, we are sure lucky to have him in our family!!  We went to Airborne for Carson’s birthday and had a fun day of jumping around.  The next night we had family over for games and cookies and ice-cream.

On October 15th, I ran my very first half marathon!! I have been wanting to do one for awhile, and I am so glad I did, I loved it. I can’t wait to do another one, maybe one day I can do a full marathon.  I took 16th in my division, I finished in 1 hour 54 minutes and 32.9 seconds!  The best part was having my family cheering me on at the finish line, it was indescribable!

 

 

 

 

 

We have been busy enjoying Halloween festivities…

The men were busy building selves in my parents new house, so me, Sean, Ash, Carson, and grandma went to the corn maze.

 

 

Ashlee and Sean were in charge of the map…they did a pretty dang good job!

 

I was in charge of this little monkey

 

 

Last week while I was at work Ashlee and my mom took the boys to Gardner village to see the witches. 

 

 

 

 

Some of my cute neighbors put together a Halloween party for some the kids in the neighborhood.  Sean and Carson had such a fun time

 

 It’s a bird….it’s a plane…. NO…. it’s SUPER SEAN!!
