WE MOVE IN TOMORROW!!

Well we were supposed to close on our house today, but with the horrible weather in Portland the lady from Key Bank didn't even come to work let alone get all the paperwork sent in for our closing soooooooo....we will be signing tomorrow instead. I CAN'T WAIT!!!

The picture is kind of dark, so I will get some better ones after we move in, but it's finished!!

We are so excited to spend Christmas time in the new house and can't wait for VISITORS!!! Grandma Gog will hopefully be coming very soon, and Grandma Sandy and Poppa will be coming the end of January!! Woohooo!

WE ARE SO BLESSED!!! Merry Christmas Everyone!

Sam is walking!!!!

Just a quick post to let everyone know Sam is walking!! Here are a couple of pictures for proof. :)

Oh and her hair is finally long enough to put in pig tails!!!!! wooohooo!! Here is a little video here of her walking too! We love and miss everyone!

Winter is here!

We had our first snow storm a week ago and the snow is still on the ground...burrr! I took some pictures of Andy because Samantha wouldn't stand or sit in the snow yet, (she cried) LOL.

That is the only snow thus far but this weekend the high on Sunday is supposed to be -5 so we will keep the hot chocolate handy. :)

Thanksgiving (Finally)

Oh my goodness, I am finally getting around to blogging our wonderful trip to Grandma Gog's! We had such a wonderful time, even with all the people I can't remember the last time I felt so relaxed, we are so blessed to have such wonderful family. When we first got there of course Jeremy had to pull out the riding lawn mower and give the kids a ride....

Sam just taking in the scenery!

Andy just had to steer!

Then it was time to start fixing stuff because as we all know Jeremy can't sit still for too long! So Scott, Jer, and even Quinn got in the action. First, trying to fix the toilet then installing a new kitchen faucet. Jeremy loved every second of it, because he loves his family so much.

All because he couldn't sit still!

This is what TEAMWORK is all about!

Cousin Pictures!!! Andy was so excited to share this time with his cousins, especially Nate whom he didn't let out of his site for almost 5 days.

From the moment Sam saw Brittanie she couldn't stop hugging her....

We had a great time at the Festival of Lights, it was Andy's first time and boy was he excited. What great memories!

And last but not least, Grandma Gog made sure we had a REAL party for Sam's 1st birthday with cupcakes, frosting, and lots of fun.

Lots of fun, LOTS of food, lots of games, lots of family. We had such a wonderful time and are looking forward to so many more fun times now that we are a little closer. I am so lucky that I married into such a wonderful, fun, loving, and close knit family! Thank you so much for everything Grandma Gog!
