More Pumpkin pics :)

Some more pics of the pumpkin patch and also Adalie's best friend Megan who came to visit on Sunday with the other mother Kindra :)....

Also check out Adalie's arm....she now throwing the ball for her other best friend Porter...ye throwing the ball - thank god this girls going to be athletic...I don't know what I'll do if she's not.

Happy Halloween

Saturday Adalie had her first pumpkin patch experience...come to think of it it was my first pumpkin patch experience too. I could not have asked for a better first experience. My mom and dad joined us along with Aunt Konnie (Jon was working and Rick was hunting). We played with lots of pumpkins and ended up picking the four best in the patch :) . So much fun. The next night Jon, Konnie, Adalie and I carved some mean patterns that are sure to illuminate the way for the poor freezing children brave enough to trick or treat in the snow. Hope everyone has a great Halloween!

Sandy Jacobs

Most days I try to focus on the brighter side of life, why spend time focusing on anything but the positive. When one puts a loved pet down, trying to focus on all of the happy memories with the pet makes life that much sadder. My Sandy girl was laid down today and I will miss her greatly, more than I can write in any blog. She is part of my happiness and will forever hold a place in my heart.

We are at home this weekend :)

DO YOU SEE THE TEETH?





WARM BABY




The family




Happy Baby = happy mom







After traveling for the last few weekends and moving I am glad to say Adalie and I will be home this weekend. Last weekend we were in Salem and Eugene. Sunday, in Eugene, Adalie and I attended Tiffany's beautiful wedding. WOW - talk about a gorgeous wedding and dress. We love you Tiff! **very happy for you***.

Adalie is getting her first two teeth, yes at the same time. How cute is she. The bottom two front teeth are racing through her gums...note to self it is possible for a child not to sleep for 24 hours and no 10 minute naps don't count. It's my own Karma, Monday at work I was talking about how her new tooth wasn't really bothering her...little did I know the next four nights would prove me wrong.

We are moved into our new home - in town!!!! SO HAPPY TO BE IN TOWN!!! I can actually go home for lunch if I want.

Here are some updated photos - lots of love to everyone - take care and stop by and say hi if you have a minute- would love the company :)

Move...

Great Grandpa Ben - Great Grandma Mary, Grandma Jeanne, Rick and Addie





Addie finally has hair :)



Okay now for some updates of the little cutie pie! Addie has had a huge week. Not only was she introduced to three beautiful fish... she moved this weekend! AHHH We are finally in town. Granted we are now renting but sometimes life gives you lemons and well you know the rest. We are happy to be in town and not as stressed! :) We are very fortunate to have such great landlords...aka Addies other mother - Kindra! We were also very fortunate to have so much help on Saturday from Jeanne, Fred, John, my mom, Jason and Kirsten - without all the help the move would still be happening. Thank you so much everyone! We owe you!

Fish on... :)

sorry they're sideways---don't know how to change???



This last weekend for labor day we took a trip to go see Granny Jeanne and Grampy Fred - Saturday morning at 4am we left to go catch the elusive pink fish that haunts my dreams (salmon). Granny was so nice to sleep in and watch after Adalie while we fished the Coos Bay. After fixing a dead battery on the boat we were on the water by 6am....so grateful for Fred's never give up attitude and also great love for fishing! 10 minutes later I had a 15# salmon on the line. Rick's uncle John netted it...30 minutes later I had another smaller Jack salmon on the line...John netted it again and then 30 minutes after that I had a beast of a hen hooked and in the boat. Did I mention all the hoots and screams coming out of my mouth...by the end I thought Rick, Fred or John was going to cut my line... all in all one of the best fishing trips I've ever been on!
