Goodbye summer!!!

We have been enjoying 70-75 degree weather since the end of October! Just today the forecast calls for snow this weekend...and it seems we skipped fall right into winter :(

We have had the best couple of weekends! Halloween was wonderful! Kenna was a butterfly princess and did so well! We didn't even have to wear a coat because it was so warm. I explained to her that she got candy by ringing the doorbell and saying trick or treat. I don't think she believed me until she got to the first house and did what she was told. Her eyes were as big as saucers and she said "mommy, lets go to next house!!" It was all I could do to drag her home after we hit about 20 houses! All the kids in the neighborhood looked so cute! We had 150 glow necklaces and by the end of the night only had about 30 left! LOTS of trick-or-treaters!

Last weekend we celebrated the last nice weekend with the Andersen's. Chloe and Kenna had a blast! We had a picnic on Sunday down at Big Creek Lake. They have this HUGE wooden castle play toy. The girls played their first real game of hide and seek....quite a hoot!

For the next two weeks we are focusing most of our time on the basement. The drywall and texturing is done (pictures soon to come.) I picked out paint and Josh and I decided on carpet and a carpet installer. As soon as we are done painting, we will install the tile floor and wood floor, get plumbers out to finish the bathroom, get the carpet installed, and then it is just small details after that! Like building shelves, baseboard, installing bar, etc.

We are so excited to have the project complete and get all the junk that was downstairs out of our upstairs!!!
