"Our Family in action"

Our year so far!

2010-06-29T09:37:00.001-07:00

This has been our first full year in NC and we are loving it here. Summer sure came fast and is already feeling like a late summer back in IN. Temps of 95 degrees are blazin! Tim and I decided to invest in a decent size swimming pool for all of us to enjoy. It took about 4 times to get level, since its literally a hill where we live. We use it almost everyday and at night as a hot tub!

Jack just loves his little pool in the back yard! As you can see he shares it with his two friends Dory and Nemo.

Krispy Creme?

Jack finally decided to get a job at the local Krispy Creme! What a great boy to help out the family. He loves his new job, and even brings us home a few donuts now and then. He is on his way to becoming employee of the month, due to his dedication and hard work! :)

Enjoying North Carolina

This was such a fun day at Ashboro zoo! We saw giraffes, elephants, rhinos and so much more. Talk about a work out though. The whole zoo practically sits upon a huge hill and is very steep and long. Jack, Tim and I had a wonderful time.

Halloween was a great day! Jack was buzz lightyear, Tim was batman, and I was just a crazy haired lady! Jack was so cute knocking on doors. He would just invite himself right on in. Too cute!

Chicago Trip!

2008-01-06T13:43:00.000-08:00

Tim and I thought we would take a day and head out to the windy city. What a windy day it was! We took the train and had a great time checking out all the Christmas decorations and just seeing the beautiful city.

Christmas 2007

This year was Jack's best Christmas so far. He got so many nice gifts and had a good time opening all of them and then some. We look forward to many more.

This year Jackson turned 2. Wow! Time flies by. He was such a good boy, and recieved many nice gifts, and loved this B-day cake.

Halloween Party!

2007-11-04T12:52:00.000-08:00

Tim and I decided that it would be fun to have a Halloween Party! Since the house is in between stages right now. I decorated with lots of lights, spider webs, and a disco ball. Jack stayed with Grammie while we had a great time. We had Freddy (Joe's buddy) nurse

Amy, Frankenstein (Joe), and Batman (Tim) and Batgirl!(Jenny)

Wisconsin Dells Vacation!

2007-10-01T08:32:00.000-07:00

We all took a trip to the Dells for the first time in September. It was such a nice break from the house and everyday life. We stayed at Mt. Olympus Resort and had a great time. It was only for 2 days, but a much needed break. Jack had ball in the water. He never wanted to get out. We got to the park right after all the kids had to back to school so we basically had the whole park to ourselves. It was great!

The house progressing!

2007-10-01T08:23:00.000-07:00

Here is what the house currently looks like. Still has a lot of work to be done to it. We hope to have it done by November so that we can work on the inside all winter long.

We put in a new front step and front door as well. New light fixtures were also added.

We have been working on our house all year long. WOW! What a job! We decided to add on an addition back in January. It's about 1100sq ft. We added on a master suite with a master closest, and bath. Then another bedroom, laundry room and large walk in hall closet. I can't wait to move in! However, we are redoing the whole outside of the house first. We started by tearing down all the siding and replacing with new. Tim has done most of the work by himself. I am so proud of him.

Pumpkin Patch

2007-09-29T18:15:00.000-07:00

Today was Jack's first time picking his own pumpkin.

He was excited to be out there and run around the field and look at all the pumpkins for the picking.

Mom and Dad both had a hand in finding the right gourds.

After the patch we all went home and spent some quality time swinging and decorating the house for fall.
