Way to go Hawkeyes!

You gotta love them HAWKS!!!! What a game!!!! It has been raining since yesterday!! It is so soggy outside and very muggy. Of course the kids want to go out and play, but they can't. We are taking Jaron tonight to see the famous Lippizaner Stallions at the US Cellular Center. Janessa is going to stay with Mary and Jim. Tomorrow around 5:30pm, our church is having a balloon glow. The hot air balloons will take off from our church and return after their balloon rides, and glow their balloons. We are taking the kids to this. They will go nuts!! They LOVE hot air balloons. They fly over our house all the time, so they get to see them quite often.

Hawkeyes are #1!!!

Have a great weekend!

Blessings to everyone,

Weekend Recap

The weekend just flew by. They always seem to do that though. Jaron had his first soccer game on Saturday morning. His team lost, but they did very well. It is so cute to watch them play. They are so little, but yet do very well considering how young they all are. I got some good pictures of Jaron that I will try and get posted on my blog sometime soon. He had soccer pictures of the team and himself taken tonight. I can't wait to see them. I am sure they will be very good! Is everyone experiencing a little cooler weather these past few days? Saturday and Sunday were cool all day long and today, it rained most of the day and was very cool out. Tonight it's supposed to get down to 38 degress. I put on my winter pajamas. Tomorrow is only supposed to be a high of 65 degrees. It is definitely starting to feel like Fall. I love it!! I set up a Facebook page if anyone would like to join in and we can stay connected one way or another.

Everyone stay warm and have a good week.

Friends In Christ,

The Weekend Buzz

We got home around 6:15 tonight from Southwest Iowa. We stayed with my parents and Jason's parents. Scott and Rachel were able to come up as well. We were able to see all of the wedding pictures Rachel and Scott decided on. They are absolutely beautiful. You can definitely tell the guy knows what he was doing. It was really nice to have everyone together for lunch and birthday parties on Saturday. I know that Jaron is very happy with what he got. He got a lot of Transformers, which is right down his alley. And once again, we had a delicious meal at the Robberts' and ate until we were stuffed. The weekend seems like a blur. From the time we get down, I am constantly on the go seeing people that need to be seen before we have to leave again. It is total chaos. I love the time that we can spend with my family and Jason's family. It means a great deal to me. Our next trip back probably won't be until Thanksgiving. I just finished unpacking a few minutes ago and after getting the kids to bed, I wanted to do a short update. Hope everyone's weekends went good. It was nice to have a long weekend and the weather was beautiful all weekend long.

Comment to me (all of you) when you can. I love hearing from everyone.

It's Finally Friday!

Well it has been a few days since I have updated. Hope everyone's week went well. Mine wasn't the greatest. There was some big changes made in our office this week that noone was expecting. Jason and I both haven't been feeling well. We both woke up Tuesday morning with colds. Neither one of us is feeling quite up to par yet. So I am definitely glad that it's the weekend. I have been very tired, and this cold thing isn't helping matters any. It will be nice to have a long weekend next weekend. We are going back to southwest Iowa. Jason's birthday is Saturday. I think we are to celebrate birthdays while we are back. Jason's birthday, Jeremy's is Sunday, Jaron's is September 25, Rachel's is September 12, and Jenna's was August 20. We have several birthdays all right together, so it's nice to celebrate them all at once. I don't think Rachel and Scott are going to make it back though because I think they have other plans for that weekend.

Jason is putting down rock for the flooring for our shed tomorrow. Then he has just one more pour to do, and all the concrete will be done. It has been a long process, and he still isn't done. He is gaining though.

I don't have any other news.

Everyone have a great weekend.

TGIF...

Well it's almost weekend time!! Yipee!! Jason's parents will be here tonight to spend the weekend with us. Jason has been working on building the shed quite a bit lately. We have been having such nice weather that he's been able to work on it. He has the forms almost put up, and is laying more concrete in the morning at 9:00am. It's supposed to get down to 52 degrees tonight. That will make it seem more like fall weather. The summer has went so fast! I can't believe it's the middle of August.

Well I don't have any news, I just wanted to check in and tell everyone hello!

Have a good weekend.

Blessings,

It's Monday Already...

I cannot believe it's Monday already!!!! The weekends go by so fast! It seems like I just get home for the weekend and it's time to go back to work to start another work week. The daycare sees my kids more than we do. That's very sad. They are growing so fast! They all seem to do that so quickly. I cannot believe Jaron is going to be 5 next month. He changes his mind daily on what theme he wants for his party. Janessa is quite a talker. I think she says a new word everyday--just out of the blue. I did a little rearranging on my blog and added a few new pictures. Check them out!

Have a good day!

Kids

Well we picked the kids up in Des Moines yesterday. Jason's parents met us there for lunch. They had a ball while they were gone. They had all kinds of stories to tell us. They missed us though because they asked us if we were going to go home to our house. It was good to get them home, but Jason and I also enjoyed our time we had together without them.

I put some of my favorite Christian songs on my blog today if anyone would like to listen to some.

Have a good night!

Blessings,
Janese
