It's official

We found out officially today that once Jeremy graduates, we will be headed to SAN DIEGO! We are really excited to be able to stay in California for a little longer at least. Now we can actually start looking for places to live. We are excited for this new adventure.

'Tis the season

I really love Christmas time, it is so fun to decorate. Jeremy thinks I have more Christmas decorations than any other 29 year old. (not true) We have had fun decorating our tree and going to Disneyland. I love Disneyland this time of year! Kamryn has no fear of Santa either, she'll just go right up to him and tell him that she REALLY wants mermaid fins this year for Christmas. I've tried to tell her that maybe a mermaid dress is more realistic. We'll see what he brings!

We are having a. . .

Well, today we went to the doctor and found out we are going to have a GIRL!!! We are very excited! Kamryn will be a great big sister, and I'm sure will show her the ropes on how to be a girl. We do have a name picked out, but I'm not sure how we will spell it yet. Here is a pregnant picture of me right before we left for the appointment.

Halloween festivities

This Halloween was filled with fun. A week before Halloween our church had a trunk-or-treat. That is when the kids go trick or treating to people's trunks instead of going house to house. So that was the beginning of the candy. Then on Halloween, Kamryn's friend had a Halloween party. All of the kids wore their costumes, ate food and made a cute candy corn magnet. Then we went trick or treating with Jared, Melissa, Carson, and Brooklyn and Erin and Keith came too. Daddy met up with us late because he was stuck in traffic on his way from San Diego. Kamryn was very happy to see him!

*Sorry there are a ton of pictures

Carson was giving Kamryn a kiss!



Jared was a crazed Michigan fan, Melissa was a pink fairy, Carson was a cowboy and Brooklyn was a ladybug.

I was supposed to be a Mardi Gras person.

Erin was Bella from Twilight. Keith wore the pirate wig I bought for Jeremy.

The Four Pumpkins

Normally we only have three pumpkins, but this year we have four. You can probably guess whose each pumpkin is, but you may be wondering about the little one in front of mine. That one Kamryn picked out for the baby that will be in our family mid April. I am 17 weeks pregnant now, and we will be finding out what we are having in 2 weeks!!

*See below for the pumpkin patch pictures, and stay tuned for the trick-or-treating pictures next week.

The pumpkin patch

A couple of weeks ago, we went with Kamryn's co-op preschool friends to the pumpkin patch. It is in West Hollywood, and we were hoping to see some famous people there, because it is known for that, but no such luck. It was fun picking out a pumpkin, but it was probably 97 degrees, way too hot for October.






We posed all of the kids on the huge rocking horse


Mama even got on for a quick pic


Kamryn posing with the scarecrows




She thought this pumpkin was so cute!

We had a baby shower for Sarah. She got a lot of cute stuff. And after Jeff's farewell talk, we all went outside to take a million family pictures. The sun was right in our eyes! Oh well, we were glad to all be together.
