The rest of November

The rest of November was fun and busy. 

We traveled down to Sheboygan to celebrate Grace's 5th birthday.   Abigail and Jade played so well together and we were lucky to have wonderful weather so that we could be outside for a large part of the day!

Thanksgiving was fun and relaxing this year.  Abby wanted to have us all spend the night at my parents house so we seized the opportunity and traveled the 7 minutes and spent the night!    Matt smoked some turkey legs and a breast and we all enjoyed our time together.    It was relaxing and fun to spend the time with them. 

Other than that we have started basketball so Abigail has been excited for that!

Overall a fun month again for our family....

The start of November. ...

Just wanted to share these pics from the first few days of November,  it has been very warm so we have been taking full advantage of it!

The big project was a Halloween gift from Matt's parents  (the far away grandma and papa ).  Of course it was a huge hit!

A day with Grandma!

Not too long ago there was a day that Abigail didn't have 4K, so we seized the opportunity for her to spend the day at Grandma and Papas house.   My mom and my girl sure had a fun and busy day of projects and fun.....and some housework too!   Ireland was even able to join Abby for the afternoon . ...  those 2 girls are so cute together ! 

Overall a wonderful day of fun and memories for all involved !   Abigail is one blessed little girl to have this opportunity to spend time with her grandparents,  so many memories that she will remember !    

See below for the fun pictures from that day!


Halloween 2016

This year Abigail was very excited for Halloween !   We asked her what she wanted to be and she chose a ROBOT!  Very happy with her choice.  

Pumpkin carving went pretty well, she was not afraid of the guts so that was neat.   She was very proud of how they turned out,  she designed the tall pumpkin face. 

Trick or treating was on a Monday night so that was a little crazy but we had a great time.  The Wisconsin weather cooperated and we were able to visit out neighborhood and visit my parents and Uncle Tom. After her bucket was full, we called it a night!


Overall a very fun and successful holiday ,  one I am sure that she will remember ! 

Enjoy the pictures of our fun Halloween !

October Fun!

I know October isn't done yet, but it has been a busy month so I wanted to quick post about it!

The very first weekend we were able to travel down to Portage to spend the weekend with Aunt Jamie!   Jamie and mom were able to spend a girls day together and catch a concert in the Dells.  Matt and Abby held down the apartment and played on the stairs!!!  That weekend we relaxed and played a ton in Jamie's apartment - the biggest hit was the stairs (she is on the second floor!).

Mid October we took the weekend to head down to Wonewoc to go to the Lion's Club Fall Festival.  The weather was again not the greatest but anytime down in that area is relaxing and fun!   Of course there were animals there again so that is where Abby gravitated towards!   We got to play on the playground at the school where Grandma works - Abby thought that was so much fun!   We even managed to take a few walks down the bike trail with the boys - Abby really loves to look around at nature and can't wait until we can walk all the way down to the "castle" (Third Castle). 

Other than those trips - we have been having fun at home.  Watson and Koda love it when Abigail rakes leaves.....it is a disaster but so much fun!!! 

Abigail is excelling at 4K - she is constantly coming home with new songs and nursery rhymes....too fun!  She is growing socially too which is neat to experience. 

Well, below are some pictures.....the next post will probably be our Halloween post....pumpkins, costume and such!  Enjoy!
