Update!

Sorry there will be no pictures with this post. Our laptop has been sent away to be repaired because our oh so gentle Cameron ripped off the space bar and the button under neath that....just lovely. Luckily it is still under warranty so we don't have to pay for the repairer's!

Rich and I have decided that it is time for a career change for Rich. He will be going back to school for HVAC. (Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning) There is a high demand for it, and this is something Rich has thought about doing for while. Rich has an associates in computer drafting. so all of his general classes such as math, science, and such will transfer so all he has to take are the actual hvac classes. It's stinks because the soonest could start taking classes are in the summer. There is a class starting in feb. to get his gas license, however he doesn't need that to get his hvac license. But that class would be very beneficial to him. So he plans on taking it. In the spring he's been told he can start working inside the hospital with the Hvac guy, and will get a pay increase as well as experience with the job before he finishes his degree. He will be able to take over that position when the other guy retires in a couple years. We are so grateful for this new opportunity.

There is nothing really new with me just the usual stuff.

Aidan is continuing to grow happy and healthy. He amazes me every day with the things he says and does. He is such a wonderful big brother and loves to watch out for Cameron. They play so well together (for the most part) I enjoy watching them play and laugh together.

Cameron is also growing happy and healthy. His eczema is still an on going issue and will be getting him in to see the specialist again about his skin not clearing up. He just got his 2 molars on the bottom. He was not a happy camper for the last week and a half. He is quite the little talker. (not words...just jibber jabber) but he actually tells stories. It is the cutest thing to watch him point and talk. He is so passionate about the things he's talking about.

My Dad was just in town for a few days. We haven't seen him in 2 months. Aidan and Cameron were so excited to see him and enjoyed playing with him every minute they got. Since he won't be here for thanksgiving we did a big dinner on Sunday to celebrate the Holiday.

Happy Halloween!!!!

This year I really got into Halloween by making all of our costumes. My good friend Rebecca helped me out a lot. We went as the finstones and her family went as the rubbles. We had so much fun making these costumes together. It was even better wearing them. Everyone at the church party loved them. I can't wait to make more next year.

My 2 Bam Bam's



They were so excited to go to the party, they were running around basically acting their roles as Bam Bam.


"Pebbles" & "Bam Bam"


Aidan and his friend Lexi. (I think he has to go to the bathroom)




On Halloween we went out trick or treating. Aidan and Cameron loved getting dressed up again, especially to get more candy. Our friends Megan and Mathias invited us over to where they live to go trick-or-treating. Megan made these cute personalized Halloween bags and put lots of candy in for the kids. Thanks Megan!!! The weather was so perfect. It was 66 degrees that day. I was so excited that I didn't have to bundle them up and hide their costumes. It got a little breezy toward the end of the night but overall, I can't ask for a better evening. We also met up with our friends "the Rubbels"
Cameron is by far not my photogenic child. Where ever the camera is he'll turn his head the other way.



They had a blast knocking on the doors and saying "trick-or-treat"....well at least Aidan did. Cameron just loved to pound on the doors and grab candy for each hand, and then just stand there and look at the people giving out the candy. Way to funny!

"Trick-or-Treat"

After all the fun we brought the kids home and got them to ready for bed. Once they were asleep Rich and I went to our annual family Halloween party at his Uncles house. My Mom was home to watch over the boys. We had fun at the party and left around mid-night. We usually bring the kids to this party. It was nice being able to relax and socialize with the family.

Rich, me, Nate (Rich's friend)



The next day we counted all of the candy they got. So much fun!!!
