New Car!!




We just got a 2003 Toyota RAV4. I love it!!! It is so nice to have a vehicle that has space in the back. Alaina loves the tinted windows. It is nice to finally have a vehicle to replace the truck that we sold. Believe it or not, it gets better gas mileage than Dave's car. Now we have a vehicle to drive to see you Laura and Josh!

Why Alaina wasn't sleeping



So I mentioned in my last post that Alaina didn't sleep well last night. Actually she hadn't slept well for the last couple of nights. I now understand because she broke a tooth through on Monday and just got another one through today. Hopefully that means tonight will go better!!

I also added another picture from our vacation with my parents. Grandpa was giving her her sippy cup.

South Carolina Vacation







From October 4th through the 12th we all went on vacation to South Carolina to see my parents and sisters. We had so much fun! Dave and I went fishing a lot in small pond by their house. We caught a couple of big bass. We went to the mall in Savannah one afternoon and we got to watch Betsy play 2 volleyball games. Betsy took her first solo glider flight while we were there. Her glider is a small plane that doesn't have an engine. It is towed up in the air by an actual plane. Then she flies around and lands. We are all so proud of her!! We wanted to go to the beach, but unfortunately it was too cold while we were there. We also were planning on going to Charleston, but unfortunately downtown was flooded while we were there. We got to meet Haley's boyfriend Daren. I wasn't sure if he actually existed seeing as she has been dating him for over a year and this is the first time I had met him. But fortunately he does exist and he is a really nice guy. It was a lot of fun to meet him and his family. Mom and Dad have a new puppy. Alaina loves animals so she had a ton of fun with the animals at my parents house. She even loved the horses. Mom got pictures, but I don't have copies yet. I will post pictures of her with the horses when I get copies.

Well, I'm really tired seeing as Alaina kept me up all night last night (still not sure why) so I think I'm going to try to sneak in a nap. Miss you all!

Halloween Costume




We are back from our vacation to South Carolina. After I get my pictures organized, I will post about that. We had a wonderful time!

Last night, Dave, Alaina, and I went shopping for a Halloween costume. We decided that she would be a ladybug this year. I put her in her costume today and took a couple of pictures to post. We also got our stuff to carve pumpkins this year! I'm so excited. I love Halloween! It is such a fun holiday.
