Christmas Tree

As a family tradition we always put up the Christmas tree on Thanksgiving night. Here are a few pictures of the tree going up, and Brennick being our little helper. 

Outside

Brennick LOVES being outside... here are some pictures of him enjoying the outdoors this fall.

Here are pictures we took the day Thomas left for Germany....

Yup! Baby #2 is on its way! 

We're Due July 7th.

With Brennick I had no pregnancy symptoms in tell I was beginning to show.... with this one, I'm nauseous and tired for what seems like All the time. We're really excited though, and can't wait to add this addition to our little family. 

Horseback Riding

So once we were back in Idaho we couldn't go too long without taking the horses out to the arena. And Yes, that is Thomas on a horse! For the longest time he argued that he didn't want to ride and that he wasn't going to like it. And to our surprise he was wrong, he loved it! The poor guys ankles were nearly bleeding by the end because he doesn't have cowboys boots. But once we were done he was planning our next trip to go riding again. The second time around he decided to wear a pair of his combat boots and those helped out a lot! It was exciting to see him enjoying something that we will be doing while he is gone. We all had a blast, and I think we may have made a cowboy out of our beachbum.   :0P

Back on the West Coast

Here are some photos from the past two weeks. We helped to rake leaves at my parents house and enjoyed the outdoors. Brennick Loves Fall. 

A Crazy October

The month of October was nothing less of hectic and crazy. Thomas graduated BOLC training, then drove the car across the U.S. to bring the car back. (Brennick and I were smart enough to fly). Then we went to Florida for a week. Where we went swimming, shopping, an everglades airboat ride, the zoo, and spent the week with really great friends of Thomas' who were very welcoming and a blast to be with. Then a week back in Utah getting things organized, and playing the wii against my sister and brother-in-law, and now, back in Idaho. Tom just left for Germany yesterday and the waiting begins.
