Halloween

This year for Halloween, Andrew was a mummy again, but a spookier mummy, and Austin was a volcano...
Austin loved his costume until the end of the night when he said next year he's going to be something that can sit down!

Uncle Jason helped get the guts out of the pumpkins (well, helped Austin, Drew is squeemish about the guts...)

Oma and Papa O came up to see the boys in their costumes....

Austin designed this face all by himself!

Post 100!

So this is my 100th post on my blog! Crazy! We've been pretty busy lately...this weekend we went out to Washington for my friend Becky's wedding...is was beautiful...
Here's a few pictures from it...

The views here were spectacular....the fall colors, and it overlooked the Missouri river.... unfortunately it didn't even break 50 degrees that day, so she had to have the ceremony inside (which was still beautiful).

This is looking down what would have been the isle...the men are standing where they would have had the ceremony at...

Inside where they had it...

My boys all looking handsome...

Austin and Drew had a great time dancing....

This was from last weekend, we went to the Hartsburg pumpkin festival...

And this weekend we got to see Sarah and Dave's new house...it is very cute...

Here's Dave playing the organ with the boys in their dining room...

The boys getting cozy by sarah's electric fire....

what we're up to...

Sorry it's been so long since I posted...here's a few things we've been up to...
we went camping with the boy scouts...we were right on the Missouri River...it was pretty...

We had a couple days off of school this week so we played at the park, and went bike riding... the weather here has been so goreous...in the 60's and the trees are starting to turn...

love this time of year!

new post

Randy got tickets from his work to go to the Mizzou football game....it was a beautiful day to go, and the perfect game to take the boys to as Mizzou won 52-12. We had an extra ticket so we got to take Drew's friend Kyle...the boys all had a good time....

At every touchdown, this cannon would be fired off...

For Drew's birthday we went to The Mud Room, which was so much fun! They got to glaze their own pottery and we went back the next week after they were fired....they were so proud of them!

It's a boy!

I will never forget Randy saying those words to me eight years ago this morning.

My first baby. My life was changed forever.

What a blessing Andrew has been. He can brighten a day just with his smile, and once you meet him him, you'll never be able to forget him.

He's amazing, and I can't believe how lucky I am to get to be his mom.

Happy Birthday Andrew......
