So long sweet summer...

I hate to say it but I think that summer is winding down. Makes me sad because I don't feel like we have really done anything this summer. Our only big event was going to Ohio for a week, which was great! Wish we had more memories of the summer. It went by waaaay too fast.

Last weekend was Amy's Bachelorette Party, that was a lot of fun. Got to see some of my college and high school friends whom I miss dearly. It was great to get out and have some fun with the girls. It's been a while since we have all seen each other. Amy is getting married in November I can't believe it's only a few short months away. Last week Sunday, we went to Brandon to play some golf with my dad's side of the family. We have all gotten a lot closer since the passing of my grandmother and my uncle Bruce. It sucks that it took something like that to bring us together but I couldn't be happier. Unfortunately, my aunt Rhonda was involved in a farming accident with an auger. They had to amputate a part of her left leg. She is a strong woman and is very encouraging. Please send prayers for a speedy recovery her way. God has a plan, we just have to have faith in the process.

We saw Gannon's cartiologist on Wednesday and things are definitely looking good! He didn't really hear his murmur any more and was just have to see him again when G is 2 years old, not too shabby.

The Brown County Fair was this week. My work had a booth out there so I think I made an appearance almost every day this week. We went out there on Tuesday with the PC Football coaches and their families. It was a good night, we enjoyed some fair food! Great in my belly, bad on my ego. My sister came up to Aberdeen on Friday and we went to The Band Perry concert. Good fun, but a complete disaster. It was raining, everything and I mean EVERYTHING got muddy. I wish I had the picture from my sister's camera. YUCK! Yesterday, my parent's came up to join us and we went to the fair again. Good time.

I don't know if everyone knows this, but Brad is helping out the Presentation College football team as the Defensive Line coach. We struggled a little bit with finding a schedule that works for everyone but I think we are getting by. We will figure it out, we always do.

But, I think that I am going to make some baby food for Gan Man and maybe Brad ;) I don't really have a good picture to post this time. I will find one and post it later.

Thanks for reading!

It's been WAAAY too long...

Why hello :)

I am so sorry about not keeping up with this. I guess I thought life was going to get easier when Gannon got bigger, turns out I was completely wrong!

Gannon is almost 8 months old now. How time flys. He is crawling around like crazy, or I guess his version of crawling which looks similar to an army or bear crawl. Oh well, it's cute. He is showing interest in pulling himself up on objects but like I said its just interest. We go back to the heart doctor on the 17th and we will see what comes out of that. He started at daycare again. Got a little cold right away but it's good for him. Even after a week of being there, his social skills shot through the roof. He was babbling and talking more and started crawling more. Maybe group daycare is so bad after all.

Brad is at softball this weekend. This is only the third time this summer which isnt so bad. I am kinda lonely. I need to clean the house. Finding the motivation to do it is another story.

Things have been crazy at work. We had our annual road race two weekends ago. And swimming lessons are going to start up again so, we are having YMCA Splash Event, and a Family Fun Night. This is ridiculous. But hey, it makes the time fly. I am having a few issues with some of my staff so I guess that we will see what comes out of that.

Last week, we were in Ohio visiting Brad's family. It was a fun time. We swam a lot and Gannon loved it! It was a fun trip. Seeing his family is always fun.

We will be in Sioux Falls next weekend for my best friends bachelorette party and to hang out with my family. But, I think I should get back to finding that motivation to clean, oh, and watch Brothers and Sisters, I'm obsessed! I will leave you with a picture of G in Ohio!
