A new first!

Owen had a great new first today. He went skiing with his dad! We headed up to Red Lodge today and Andy and Owen went to the ski hill for opening day. Andy taught Owen the two basic fundamentals to skiing, french fries and pizza. What do french fries and pizza have to do with skiing? Well French fries is what you tell them to point their skies down hill to go and pizza is for slowing down and stopping. When they got back Owen was so proud of himself and told me all about how to do french fries and pizza and how he rode on the chair lift! Andy is glad that he has a new ski partner, even if it means that he does not get a good day of skiing in. I am thinking that I will have to pick it up again so that we can all go as a family!

long over due

Well we have been very busy, so I have not been very good at blogging. In the month and a half, since my last blog, we have taken out our old patio and had a new one put in, I have been doing some design work at the church and for a friend, Beau has started cruising and we had Halloween. I will share a few picture to share for now. Be watching for blogs with my design work and the patio in the future. Oh I have also lost more weight and gotten a new hair cute.


So lets start with Beau, he will be nine months on the 11th and we still do not have any teeth. He is such a mommies boy. I lights up when I walk in the room. It just melts a mom's heart. Now it is not so nice the times that I am trying to get laundry, cooking, cleaning and just need a break and all he does in cry because he only wants mom. He is also a wiggle worm. This kid never sits still. He crawls all over everything. He loves his independence and being able to get around.

Owen has a great imagination and loves to play like he is a super hero. He is always pretending to be something and it usually involves bad guys or monsters that he has to kill or hide from.

For Halloween we went to "Boo at the Zoo" with my sister Melissa , her boys and my father-in-law Duncan. We all had a great time. Then we took Owen to a few neighbors and friends ending at Andy's parents house. The boys stayed with Vicki and Duncan while Andy and I went to a friends house for a party. The 30th Down Town Billing s had trick-or-treating and participating businesses so my mo m and I took all 4 boys down. It was a lot of fun!
