PuMpKiNs

We finally got out and colored all of our pumpkins this week. We had a total of 10 pumpkins out of our garden this year. That's not including the 4 pumpkins that grew under the fence into our neighbors yard that we let them have. Then Cami went on a fieldtrip to a pumpkin patch and got 2 more pumpkins. So we have a whole mess of pumpkins going up our front steps. It's fun though. We've never had so many pumpkins or fall decor by our front door. So I'm loving it.

BaBy UpDaTe!!!

Here I am at 29 weeks. I feel big right now and like I'm running out of room inside there. I'm not sure how much more my skin can stretch. Hopefully for atleast 8 more weeks. This by far has been my easiest and best pregnancy. I haven't had any heart or brain issues and I have been feeling really good. I was sick at the beginning but that only lasted a few weeks. I'm getting so excited to see what this little girl looks like. We have her room set up and a TON of clothes for her to wear. We're ready for you Paityn!!! Come on out and join us!

Have You Ever Wondered?...

For all of you out there that have moved into a house recently or even to you who have lived in your house for a long time...Have you ever wondered what exactly is in your vents, ducts, etc...? Me either. That is until we moved into this house. It seems to be never ending the treasures we seem to find when we venture to the next room to clean. It all happened when we were just moving in and Chad and his dad were ripping up the old stained carpet in Trevor's room. They had to take the vent off to remove the carpet. Much to their surprise there was a little toddler boy's boot. A BOOT? Don't you think they'd miss that? Then that got our minds whirling to find out what else we could find. So we searched...well, Chad searched. He used his hands, flashlights, the vacuum cleaner...whatever we could find to reach as far down as we could. What were our findings you ask? Well, there was a variety of things ranging from dirt clots, old dried huge pieces of grout, dog food, bottles, dog chew toys, sippys, rocks...the list goes on and on. I am so sad that I didn't think to take pictures of all of our findings. But I did on this particular day. Chad decided to clean the return vents and low and behold...MORE TREASURE!!! As he reached all the way down to the bottom of the almost 3 foot drop he managed to pull out 2 VHS tapes, "Fried Green Tomatoes" and "El Dorado". He also pulled out a little toddler girls t-shirt, jacket and pants. You have to see it to believe it.I'm hoping to one day find some stashed away money or jewels or something worth something. For right now we're striking out as far as pirates go. So take a look and maybe then you'll want to search your vents to find out exactly what may be hiding in you duct work.

"Hey Ali, I think I found something"

"Yeah, you definately found something"

A WHOLE outfit!! SERIOUSLY??!!

Comparisons...Trevor vs Papa

Do you think these two are related? Seriously!!! My mom sent me this picture of my grandpa and I could not believe what I saw. So I grabbed my camera and somehow was able to snap a picture of Trev in a similar pose and facial expression. Let me know what you think? Do they look alike? I think so!
