A Great Halloween!

It was so much fun this year to Trick or Treat with Hudson. He cooperated so well with walking door to door with his cousins and being sooooo cute. He had to be the cutest polar bear ever.

Too Cute!!


He sat in the middle of the street and wanted a piece of candy right then.


He would have to look in the pumpkin after the candy went in, it was funny

Pumpkin Patch

This was the first Pumpkin Patch that Adam and Hudson have been to. I couldn't believe that Adam had never been to a pumpkin patch before. So we went all out and went to a Farm that had hay rides,a corn maze, cider, lots of farm animals, a pumpkin launch, and lots of other activities. We had fun taking Hudson and watching him look at all of the pumpkins in the field, he was so cute. Being a man Adam was trying to find the biggest pumpkin for us, but he had no luck! The patch had been too picked over since it was the last weekend before Halloween. We ended up with some cute pumpkins though.

Avarie We Love You!

This past week has been a very difficult in my family. My 4 year old neice, Avarie was diagnosed with Leukemia on Tuesday. Avarie was diagnosed with Juvenile Arthritis a few months ago, but last Friday she was very sick and was in a lot of pain. My sister, Jenell felt that she needed to take her to the hospital. After further testing we heard that she does not have arthritis, but that it's cancer. Avarie has been such a brave and strong little girl. She has received Chemo already in the hospital and is doing very well. The next round of chemo will cause her hair to start falling out, which will make this more real. She is going to be very stylish though because she is going to be getting the cutest hats from all of those who love her. Our family has really pulled together. We are truly blessed to have such a big family to help Jenell and her family. They have 3 other children they are trying to take care of as well. Its going to be a long road but if you know Avarie she is a fighter and truly a special spirit. Avarie we love you and can't wait to have you back home.

Busy September

Septmeber is gone and just flew by. We were so fortunate to have family and friends come and stay with us. Adams parents flew in for Hudson's birthday. It was so great to have them here and spend time with there only grandchild. We did get to surprise them with our announcement that they were going to have grandbaby #2. They were so excited for us!! After they left my brother Aaron, Meagan and Lizzy flew in from Utah. Meagan and I have been friends for a few years and were lucky enough to be pregnant together. We shared a lot of fun memories when we lived in Utah. It was fun to have her here and show her the Northwest. I wished I had felt better while everyone was here. Being sick was not in my plans, but I think I managed pretty well and enjoyed having everyone come see us.

WE ARE PREGNANT!

Ok so finally I can make the announcement that we are expecting baby number 2 in April. If it is a surprise to you then join the club because I was as surprised as you. Lets just say Adam was so surprised (shocked more like it) it took him till the next day to believe me. He thought I would tell him that I was kidding around. I even showed him the test to prove it, but he still was in denial. We are both excited now and really looking forward to this baby. As far as the sickness goes, yes I am sick all day again, but this time it is better. I am able to tolerate it better by keeping my stomach full. When I let it go just slightly empty....I spiral down hill quickly, so I just eat about every 2 hours. I didn't really get to enjoy Hudson's party because I felt so yucky. My family is so awesome though because they literally took care of everything. My mother in law was with Hudson most of the party watching him and I really appreciated that. I felt pretty good today. We went on a hike up Mt. Hood. It was about 3.5 miles and I did great. There was no way that I could of hiked with the Hudsons pregnancy. The fresh air really helps. Well I will keep you all updated on this new adventure (blessing) of ours.
