Owen and Daddy playing continued...

Owen and Daddy were playing. I caught the first video below. and then this one. The sound didnt pick up to well, so you made need to turn up your volume, but Daddy makes a raspberry noise and then Owen tries to. Pretty cute. In this video you can see him using his tongue to try to make the sound. ;) Have I mentioned I need a new camera?? lol!

Owen mimicking Daddy!

Owen and Daddy time! Daddy was making noises and playing with Owen when all of a sudden Owen started doing it back. I hurried and grabbed the camera! Course its still the phone camera, but you can see them go back and forth. Owen is growing so fast!

Owen is going mobile!

Owen has learned to roll his way around! He has never like tummy time, but a week or so ago he figured out that when he rolled he moved. And now he rolls from one side of the room to the other! He is also starting to get up on his hands and knees. This clip is too short to see how far he came and I kinda missed part of it. I really need a new camera! My camera phone is just not doin it for me. lol! But you get the jist. And please ignore my voice. haha.

Its been 12 years already!

I cannot believe it has been 12 years! Where does the time go? It doesn't feel like that much time has passed, but looking back I can see how far we have come. In 12 years we have had quite the adventure already! We have had good times and bad. Happy moments and some sad. We have had small homes and big homes. Crap cars and great cars. We have lost jobs and found jobs worth uprooting for. We have finished our educations. We have traveled to far off places and seen different lands. We have lived in different cities and have made many new friends. We have grown our family from 2 to 4 with two beautiful children, Emma and Owen. But the best thing is that we have been able to do all this together. And at this point we are barely in the middle of this adventure. I hope for many many more precious moments. There are many great love stories. But ours is my favorite. :)

Our very Fall weekend

My darling Emma. Picked her own pumpkin from the garden. :)

Master Owen and his very first pumpkin!

The newly engaged couple. I took this pic and think its pretty cool for announcements. ;)

Siblings! Their first Fall and Halloween season together. :)

The road my Mom lives on is so slow you could lay there and get a suntan! Good place for a fun pic.

--This weekend was my little sister Rachel's 21st birthday. And similarly to my 21st, she found herself engaged to be married! They had already planned this trip so it wasnt last minute. They went to Seattle for a few days and seemed to have an awesome time. We had work and school and couldn't go, but we met up with them on Saturday evening at my Moms and went out for some pizza at the local hang out. We stayed the night and went to church the next day and then spent the afternoon visiting, raiding grandma's garden, eating the fruits of our labors, and snapping photos while the sun was up. Emma and Owen got to pick Pumpkins from the garden adn we went over to the neighboring corn field to (shhhhh) harvest our own corn. Then my mom made an awesome pot roast for dinner! We really enjoyed our super short visit! Have to take it as it comes. :) And congrats to my sister! Approx date is February 18th. Can't believe it! My baby sister is not only 21 but engaged! Whoa! When did that happen????

Owen having a Blast!

Owen is learning and growing so fast! A month or so ago we bought him a little activity center and he just loves it. Well, he loves it when he is in the mood. lol. He has loved to stand since he was about 2 months old and in this he can stand and play. And he just gets so excited. He laughs and giggles and grabs the toys. He bangs and bounces. He loves it! I stole a quick moment with my camera phone. But you get the jist. I am a little behind on blogging. Soon to catch up! I promise!
