Alapacas, 35 Years, New Car Seats, and Sour Cream

I know that the title to this blog is a little strange, but all of these things were a part of our weekend. We left for Eugene Friday afternoon, and arrived home late Saturday night. It was a quick trip, but we had a great time.

Friday we were able to have dinner and spend a few hours with my Grandma. It was so good to see her and both of the girls loved being at her house. I'm sure Isaac enjoyed himself as well, but he is still to little to tell me if he is having fun. Then we went out to my Aunt and Uncles house to spend the night. They live out in the country, it is always so quite at their house, I love it.

Saturday my Aunts neighbor, who has an Alpaca farm, was having an open house. So the girls got to go over and meet the Alpacas. Morgan was much more into this than Olivia, but they both had fun. Two of the Alpacas just had babies, one of the babies was less than a week old. I took a few pictures, but as timing would have it, my camera battery died and the pictures at the Alpaca farm are the last pictures I have of Saturday. Which is so sad, because after the Alpacas we all packed up to head over to my cousin Matt's house were my aunt and uncle 35 year wedding anniversary party was being held. It was so much fun to celebrate their years of marrage, and to see family. Matt and his wife Tanya have a daughter(Ava) who is about 4 month younger than Olivia. The girls were halarious to watch, not to mention they all had a blast.

Sunday we did the normal chuch thing, then had a relaxing afternoon at home. Isaac will soon be to big for the infant carrier car seat, and needing to move into a bigger car seat. Well we have 2 Marathons, but they both had very girly covers on them. Luke was adimate that this just wouldn't do and I needed to buy a new car seat or a new cover. After looking online I was able to find a new cover that fit Luke's boy requierments. Please rember my Husband is a UofM grad and a football fan.

Both of the car seat had this cover origanaly.

Now One looks like this and is all ready for Isaac, except that I need to adjust it for rear facing, but I'm not going to do that until he is ready to be in it. I just stuck him in for a quick picture.

Lastly I don't think I have bloged about this but Olivia has a huge love of sour cream. Sunday night I made taco salad for dinner, I had left the kitchen to do somthing with Isaac, when I hear Luke laughing and taking pictures. This is what out little sour cream lover had done.

Back Yard Fun

With summer ending and winter approaching, we have been looking on Craigs List for a play structure. I had a Little Tikes structure in mind, and have been searching for it on CL scene we moved back in November. Well last week I found it, the structure has been in the house for its 2 years of life, so it still looks new. The girls were so excited to put it un in the back yard, I'm really liking having it too.

Sharing

I think that we need to work on sharing at our house. Luke took this lovely video tonight while I was at AWANAS with Morgan.

It's time for gates!

He is barely 7 months old and already into everything!

No time to post!

So the title of this blog says it all. The last 2 weeks have been crazy at our house!

Our new master bath is done, which I'm so excited about. I will post pictures as soon as I get the finishing touches done, new towels, new towel bars, a mirror, and a few other little things. I have to say the bathroom looks awesome, Luke did a great job.

Morgan has started school which means 3 mornings a week we leave 35 minutes after the girls wake up, yea it's a rushed morning. I usually head to the gym after I drop Morgan off at school and arrive back at home just in time for lunch and naps. We have had other activities mixed in to our schedule as well. The same day that school started Morgan and I also started AWANA's, I decided to be a cubbies leader. Both Luke and I have put in extra hours at the church helping to paint the childrens wing, it was so much fun to watch it come together.

Last week I registered for a class at PCC that will start at the end of this month, I'm very excited it's just a dance class, but I'm sure it will be fun. On the 25th my Thursday morning MOM's group will have kick off, and again this year I am on the hospitality team. I have enjoyed my time in MOM's, so this year will be bitter sweet, this is going to be my last year. I have moved on and am now working with the Ladies of F.A.I.T.H ministry at our church. Hopful soon I will do a much more exciting post, on the kids and everything they have been up to.

Pre-School

Today was Morgans first day a school. She loved it, and can't wait until Wednesday to go again.


She just had to have this backpack nothing else would do. I know it's almost as big as she is.
