The Basement...

Well ~ this basement has been quite the project, but I am very happy to say it's DONE! First in August we spent a great deal of $$$ to get it completely water-proofed and then last month we started having it finished! It was so much fun to see it go from what it was to what it is now ~ here are some shots of what has now become a beloved addition to our home! It will either help us sell our house (yup, for those that don't know it went on the market on Monday) or it will help us stay sane for the time! It goes without saying that it's Selah & Judah's favorite "hang-out" place. It's so sweet ~ every night after dinner they usually go off and have their own time just playing w/ each other! Now you know just where to find them ~ downstairs!!

September Update

So, here is a sample of our September!
While the kiddos missed their Nana & Papa while they were in Idaho ~ they were VERY excited to have the use of Papa's car and his handy-dandy headphones. Little did ya know, Papa!

The next shot is of Selah & her friend Andrew. This was her very first play-date at our house. I picked them both up from preschool and they got to spend the whole day making "forts" in our "woods" and getting into all sorts of fun things ~ our girl is getting so grown up!














Next came a day at Eagle Creek Gardens for some pumpkin fun w/ the Kaselak's. Kinder Music showed up for the kids to beat on the drums and shake a thing or two, they all got to go on pony-rides ~ even our man, Judah, he was slick on that horsey! And ofcourse, we got to go through the fields on a nice crisp fall day for a hay-ride. Thanks Shasta, Scot, Harrison & Hugh!







And last, but certainly not least was our seemingly annual event at Fun-Time Inflatables w/ the Congdons. It was funny to see how just a little time can change so much. Judah was in full boy mode and couldn't wait to join in on all the action. Last time we were there he was around 11 months old and just watching ~ now he was part of the CRAZINESS! Alec just turned 2 years old ~ he's getting so big (that's him riding the slide with Selah). Happy Birthday Alec!
