Birthday!! 10/14

Today is my birthday!!! I am so old. Shawn made me breakfast and the kids gave me a card. It was a great day. Shawn and the kids gave me Sleeping Beauty dvd. I was wanting light plate covers for the house (the old ones the previous owner took, so we have alot of light switches that are naked.) He didn't like that idea and said that is from the housing fund not your birthday.

Broncos Game 10/5

We went to the Broncos vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers game. This is the first professional game that either of us had been to for anything, let alone football. It was awesome. We had amazing seats, thanks to the doctor that Shawn works with. He has season tickets and wasn't going to make it to the game. So he offered it to us. We were on the north end zone. And halfway through the game it started to rain, we didn't even notice. Thanks to the balony above us shading us from the sun and rain. Go Broncos!!!! They won 16-13.

These signs were so funny. They were on the ramps around the stadium. I didn't realize I needed to bring a speedometer.

This was on the corners on the ramps

Chloe loves to draw right now...I just wish she would do it on paper so I can save it.

My House 9/30

This is the reason why I have been slacking on the blog. We are in the process of buying a house. Hopefully all the paperwork and loan stuff will be done in the next couple of weeks. So hopefully we will be moving by the end of October. YAH!!!! No more apartments! We are counting down the seconds at this point. (We live across the street from a community college, so there are alot of single freshman that are our neighbors. Parties at 2am, that kind of thing.) We have tried in the past to purchase a house, but because Shawn was self-employed (even though he is a doctor), they wouldn't look at us until he had been working 2 years. BLAH! But now he is working for a private practice full-time and keeping one of his Target Optical locations part-time. So hopefully there won't be anymore problems. We will just be glad when the keys are in our hands and we know it is ours!

Optometry Kids 9/27

I am such a geek. I saw these shirts online and had to get them. They say I love my Optometrist. Today 10/15 a lady in Chloe's gymnastics class commented on the shirt and said, "Isn't she too little to have a optometrist." She didn't realize that Chloe was my child, so when I said, "well her dad is the optometrist." We all had a good laugh.

Miller Farms 9/23

Chloe & Austin on "Herbie", they also have real size vehicles that looked like the characters on "Cars". The kids were in heaven.

Austin playing in the dirt in a tractor tire. What a boy!

Austin and Cameron (they are about a month apart in age)

We went to Miller Farms (up next to Longmont, CO-about a hour away from where we live) with the Moms' Group in our ward. It was a ton of fun... But I was not prepared for it. I thought that it would take 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Because you get on a hay wagon and they pull you around the fields and at every stop you get 2 5lb bags for each veggie there. Which is a ton of food (corn, indian corn, tomatoes, potatoes, onions, beets, etc., etc.) There were so many of us, that it took over 3 hours and I had to have the farm hands come out and get me and the kids to go to a appointment. And I figured, "oh i'll just bring each of the kids sippy cups full of water and a lunch and we will be fine." No. So by the time we were done, we were really thirsty and hungry. Oh well. Be better prepared next year. It was lot of fun though.
