Good Times

We have been just hanging out enjoying the great Fall weather and getting ready for the baby:) We are all getting very excited for #3! Cora has been having a few melt downs but we are hoping that gets better.....it should right....:)
Snuggling, are favorite thing to do!

 So I have been nesting and going through things, I went through my jewelry the other night. The girls were in the bath and when they got out they picked out some of their favorites.

Getting all of the Fall Decor out, ready for Halloween!

Kendal has been addicted to the IPod lately, little sis checking it out.


 Tonight we went and road horses out at John Dopp's. You could not ask for a better day! Cora is really starting to enjoy riding horses as well.  Looks like we have two little cowgirls on our hands:)

Riding off into the sunset!

Heather's Wedding

On Saturday we went to Holstein for Chad's Cousin Heather's wedding. It was a beautiful sunny day, you could not ask for a better day in September.  So we got the girls all dressed up and wrestled Cora to get her hair done:) She does not like to have anything done to her hair, lately she does not like to have anyone but her Daddy do anything for her. We hear a lot of "Daddy do" she does like to growl at her mom though, I am really hoping that this will pass in the next few weeks.
But look how cute and innocent she looks:)


Cora took this photo, not too bad:)

The girls running around like crazy with Cousin Chloe

Kirk and Chloe bellied up to the bar!

Shaking her booty

This video is Cora doing her first Hokey Pokey, Too cute! Kendal just watching taking it all in!

1997 Mommys

Tonight we met some of my high school classmates that live around here. This was the first time we got our kids together:) We had a beautiful night and a great time. Nicole did get a good pic of us Mommy's. We really need to do this more often. Kendal could not stop talking about having everyone over to our house but she was worried about Nicole's youngest Izzy being scared of Ruger. Then when we were leaving Kendal had to not only give Abby's little Noah a kiss but she had to grab his face and kiss him....little nervous about my aggressive lover:)

 All the kids eating pizza, kind of crazy they all came from Lady Pirates:)
All the kids, Kendal and Addison supporting the soccer poses. Simon not really wanting the picture:)

This was a picture taken before school the other day, so explains my girls! luv it. not Cora' shoes, " No I do" have you heard this from your 2  year old:)

Labor Day Weekend

We had a very exciting weekend! We headed to Ames on Saturday morning to participate in Jamison's Vision walk. It was a little soggy and rainy. We didn't make it for the walk but we got there for lunch and to be with all of the family.

 Then afterwards we headed to the hotel to swim before the football game.
Grandma Sharon did their hair!

 Our little cheer leader! The rain never really stopped so we didn't stay for the game be had a lot of fun with the family!
 Then today we went to Arnolds Park for one last summer event in Okoboji! The girls had a great time! The weather was great!
Cora a little scared on the Roller Coaster!

 The girls got tattoos like there mom and dad on their lower backs:)
