Yoooohooooo....

Apparantly I just randomly decided to stop blogging...heh.   I just realized it's been 3 months since I last posted - and this year I have just completely sucked at this whole thing, which is weird because I actually enjoy it and I like documenting my life.   I guess I've just been living in the moment?   I don't know...for whatever reason, it's kind of embarrassing all the things I HAVEN'T blogged about....like my son's 4th birthday.   Eeeek.   Bad mommy award.

All is well here - nothing majorly exciting to update on.  Working on the house is a constant thing....we are tackling projects little by little as time and money allows.  I started a 2nd job in July, which is sort of insane, but also pretty amazing since the opportunity just fell into my lap and it doesn't take any more time away from my family.  It just means I have to juggle things a bit more and I have less flexibility in my daytime hours....but overall it's been great and actually kind of nice to work outside of the home and do a job that I can just do and not bring home with me.  
Adam started Pre-K in August and so far is doing really well.  He had to say goodbye to his best buddy since he graduated and moved on to Kindergarten:
could you just die?   These boys are too much...
Luckily, we signed them up for swim lessons together, so they get to see each other at least once a week.  The teacher somehow got my kid to wear goggles and I spend almost the entire lesson cackling at my goofy kid...
In August we had to say goodbye to our friends and neighbors who recently moved to Oregon.  Although we only lived next to them for 10 months, we truly bonded with this family and felt like we'd known them forever.  It was like a scene out of a movie, with our entire cul-de-sac standing outside crying and waving goodbye as they pulled away with their uhaul.   Our whole neighborhood was in a funk for a while :(   Really miss them!
 
We went to the local airshow with friends we met in our birthing class - Adam and Addison, officially each others "first friend".  So stinking cute.  We all wonder if they will ever get hitched :)
 
 
 
We spent labor day on the lake with my brother and my nieces and a bunch of friends....was a super fun day, and I went tubing (thankfully nobody took pictures of that) and had a blast.  Adam sure thought it was funny when hubs and I wiped out.  Great way to spend a day off!
 This kid loves speed and bumps....pure joy radiates from thim when my brother goes fast

 Neice Keeley is a total badass on the tube....girl can hang on no matter how much my brother tries to bump her off.  It's incredibly nervewracking because even though she is almost 13, she will always be 5 years old to me...
 Happy Hubs....relaxing on the lake
Cheesy Hubs was there too...
That's the update for now....here is proof that the cheese runs in the family...ha!
