Besties

Georgia has a lot of really good friends
She love them all, but for the last little while Hazel
has been her best friend. Hazel and Georgia are just 6 months
apart and have so much fun together. They both love babies
love to read books and just be together. Georgia asks me
to go see her at least once a day. And calls her on her
fake phone all day long. Our family is going
to be really sad because in a few short weeks Hazels family
will be leaving us for bigger things... Like a real job.
I am really going to miss these two playing together. They play
so cute. Here they are playing outside on the first day it snowed.
The sad thing is they wanted to go outside so bad to see the snow
and by the time I had them both warm we went out and the snow
had stopped. They still played around and had fun.Here they are watching squirrel's and rabbits in our back yard.

Having a pajama party and a sleepover.

Here they are at the fair strolling around.

We are really going to miss Hazel I love her as if she was
my own and I wish she was so Georgia could play all day.

Halloween

We are going to start off with this hunk.
J.C. usually skips out on Halloween dressing up
I have only seen him in one costume all the time we
have been together, which is a 80's one piece ski suit.
So after a lot of begging to dress up with us he complied and
said he would dress up as a rocker. I was fine with that, anything
is better than nothing the fun thing is that J.C.'s whole
costume was found right in his closet. You gotta love this boy.Then we had the cutest little Minnie Mouse in history.
Georgia is obsessed with Minnie and Mickey. This year was
so much fun with G because she LOVED her costume and
had fun showing it off around the neighborhood.

One of our friends had a Halloween party and we were in charge
of making the cake. And I have to give the credit to Jace. I guess
being a perfectionist can come in handy when you are making cakes.
I made the cake and Jace did all the decorating. It took him a good hour
but the out come was well worth the time he took.

Our family pic Minnie, a rock star, and I was jc's guitar.

The kids

The girls, we some how didn't get a pic of all the guys.

This was the last thing we will do with our little group of
friends. We have one friend who leaves next week to interview
for some jobs and they will be gone for 6
weeks and then in December the Clarks move to
Indiana leaving the rest of us for bigger and better things.
So it was kind of a bitter sweet night. I can't even begin to
tell you how much I will miss getting our families together
for dinners, BBQ's, games, parties and everything.
These are the people that have been our family here in Albany
and I am going to miss all the fun we have together.

Pa Bob and Nanny come to NY

A few days after my family let J.C.'s family
came to visit. We had a lot of fun in a short amount
of time. Linds and her girls got to come up and so did
Paige so we had a full house. One day we went to this
little farm it was really cute and the kids had a lot of fun.

Watching the pig races

the human hamster wheel

the house full of corn.

And then there was the 80 foot under ground slide.
Which not only the kids loved but so did all the adults.
And I think we have talked nanny and pa Bob to put one in there
back yard at there new house.

J and G riding the slide together, they LOVED every minute.

And then there was Cowie-d, G named the cow that she was
obsessed with this cow she loved feeding playing with it.

We also got to show the parents where Jace spends all
his time.

Thanks Nanny and Pa Bob for everything we are
so glad you finally made it out, and can't wait
for you to come back. We miss you and can't wait to
see you in 6 short weeks.

My sisters & mom come to town

In early October my Mom and sisters came to New York
for a week to visit us. We had a lot of fun and did
a lot of fun things.Visted the Norman Rockwell Museum

Went to the local farm

Jace got to spend one day with us and this was the day we
decided to visit the awesome grave yards in upstate NY

The girls at a really cute brunch place

Then it was off to NYC, we left Georgia and Jace with Paige for 4 days
and did a bunch of things in the big city. We went to some
Broadway plays, shopped, went on a food tour, visited old'
liberty herself, and ate good food. Although I was a little under
the weather when we were there it was fun to be with
my mom and sisters and showing them around my new home state.

Thanks for the fun Mom I never thought it would happen
and I'm glad it did!

Apple Picking In September

Georgia and I went apple picking back in September
with all of our friends. This has become a yearly event that
we look forward to because it start off our fall activities. Georgia
loved it this year because she could get all the apples herself and
it took us for ever to pick because every time I would put one in
the bag she would have a small melt down and say
"mommy I do it me self" which we hear a lot around our
house these days. All of our best friends
