I'm an awesome sister

This entry is for my personal entertainment. My sisters never look at my blog or comment, so - what the heck! - I might as well have fun right?

SOLD

We sold our house last week!! We are just so happy and feel incredibly blessed. It's so nice not having to worry about the "if's" and "when's" of selling our house in Denver. Now on to the bigger and better things in Wyoming!! :)

- As a side note - we had a rare snow fall that stuck to the valley floor in Southern Oregon today. We had so much fun making snow men and running around. My dad nailed me pretty good in the face though with a snow ball. He better be watching his back......bwa hahaha (evil laugh).

Crawling?

I don't know what you call this - but I'm pretty sure it looks like full push-ups. Emmett can even do them one handed (seriously) if he tries to grab a toy - or Zoë's hair. He isn't really moving forward all that much, maybe a few inches, but it's still impressive. Zoë' is even trying to teach him how to crawl.

To Dream the Impossible Dream!

We did it! The house is on the market. We are now in Wyoming renting a townhouse that does NOT have mold (a tall order around here obviously). We've been trying to explain to Zoë what's going on and showed her our house in Colorado online. She replied "That's a better house" and started to cry. Nice.

Don't worry Ryan and Alison - I'm just kidding. I'm actually doing really well considering the fact that everyone ran away from us at church and wouldn't talk to us. (A quite funny long story that I'll post in a blog later)

Out with the old in with the new....er

So we went to Wyoming and stayed at an apartment for one week. The night we got in I started itching like crazy - the rest of the week the kids and I were sick. Alex had been complaining that there was always water on the counter tops - and I knew I didn't spill anything. The day we left he took a shower - and sure enough - more water on the counter tops. So I of course took a LONG shower - and practically came out to a flood in the kitchen. Come to find out there was a significant leak in the walls of the nasty apartment and black mold EVERYWHERE!!! We packed up and left. I called every available place to rent and everything was taken. On the way out of town, Alex was talking to a Realtor and she had a townhouse open that day! So....we got our house on the market in Colorado and are now renting a townhouse. Yipee!

- Luxury - (the nasty apartment)


Playing dress up with Emmett.


Emmett begging us to stop :)


Zoë was a ballerina for Halloween. We went to a trunk or treat at the local Stake Center there and I swear there were over 150 cars!! We obviously didn't get to everyone. It was pretty chilly too - so she had leg warmers. Two words: Flash Dance!




Trying to entertain ourselves building towers. Emmett was pretty ticked that he couldn't quite reach over and knock it down.


Emmett jumping (what he did most of the time)

Get out and Vote

I stole this cartoon from Alex's cousin's blog - but I thought it was appropriate. GET OUT AND VOTE!!

Sunflower Farm with Daddy

Alex took the kids for me a few weeks ago to a cute little farm in Longmont. I got a break and the kids got to spend time with their daddy!! I think we should to that WAY more often (Alex? hint hint).

You can tell her love is NOT with pigs. That's about as close as she got.



You know it's crazy - I guarantee that she would have been screaming her head off if I would have left her alone on that pony. One more reason to have Alex go it alone.


Zoë is scooting as far away from this lady as possible.


Emmett likes the attention


Climbing up



Thinking of climbing back down


Once again, Zoë was playing it shy when a little girl was trying to play with her.


She actually looked like she knew what she was doing!
