Jack - 18 Months!

Jack turned 18 months today! I cannot believe my little boy is 1 1/2 years old! He is changing so much and saying lots of new words every day. His little vocabulary is really starting to grow as he loves reading with Mom and Dad. His latest words to name a few are; baby, puppy, happy, cow, kitty and the funniest of all, poop! ha. Jack has become quite the dare devil these days. He's wrestling with Daddy, jumping off our couch and getting on top of just about anything he can stand tall on. We are so blessed to have our little Jack.

Happy Birthday Ben!

It's Ben's 29th Birthday today! We celebrated Sunday at Ben's parents house with Ben's favorite meal...Pizza and CocaCola of course and watched the Vikings game. Next weekend Ben and I will celebrate his Birthday by going to Tunucci's Restaurant to have their excellent Pribe Rib Buffet. They only have the buffet on Saturday nights so we have to wait another week. Happy Birthday babe! Jack and I are so thankful that you were born :)

Happy Halloween!

Our Halloween has become finding some cute costume for Jack and then parading him around at our families homes. This year we went to Ben's parents house and then the Walker Grandparents to visit. Jack "decided" he wanted to be a Dragon this year, so I wasn't going to object as he was very cute in his costume.

Sever's Corn Maze

Ben went hunting this weekend, so we decided to go to Sever's Corn Maze in Shakopee with the Lesnau's. We had lots of fun and the weather was quite nice. There was a Corn Maze, Giant Corn Pit, Petting Zoo and lots of other fun things to do for kids. Earlier in the week we were stuck in the house for a few days as Jack had the Flu. We were was so glad to get out and have some fun!

Aerial View of this year's Corn Maze, pretty sweet huh!!

Jam Packed Week!

Last week Grandpa Mike was in town from Texas. He came back to "winterize" the Siren, WI cabin and of course to see us! It was so nice to spend time with him. We didn't want to see him leave but knew it would only be a couple months before we made our way down to Texas for Christmas!

This weekend we went to Gena's 27th Birthday dinner at The Mediterranean Cruise Cafe and the food was excellent. I cannot believe she turned 27 and it makes me not look forward to my birthday in February! Life just flies by too fast!

We then made our way over to our friends, Rachel and Forrest's new home in St. Paul. They were having a "House Warming" party. It was so nice to see Rachel. On the way over I was figuring out how many years we have known each other and it's been 17!! It's so awesome to have old friends!
