Lots to blog about...

I will start with the wonderful news that one of my best friends- Gena had a beautiful baby girl on Monday. Her name is Lexington and she is just adorable!!


Next, Carson got to go to a second pumpkin patch! One of my other best friends- Sharon and her sweet family were heading to the pumpkin patch last weekend and we got to share in the fun! Carson LOVED the real horsies and the little horsie ride- he would not get off that thing the whole time!











Finally, today we got to see family that we haven't seen in YEARS! We got to spend the day with Erin and her sweet boys, Cheryl, Eric and Stewart and Heather!! We met at the Portland Zoo and had such a great day! Thanks Erin for letting us come along- can't wait to go shopping next week :)

Home from Mexico... and in the new house :)

This month has definately been a whirlwind!! We got home from a wonderful trip to Playa del Carmen and moved the following day! Thankfully, my dad, grandma and grandpa, Waz and Eric were all eager to jump in and help- we are so thankful for them!!!






Mexico was so nice! The weather the first couple days was not great... it rained- but was HOT! Both Steve and I got burned really bad the first day because it was so cloudy we just ignored the fact the UV rays were still in full force! We also had a hard time relaxing being away from Carson and knowing we had to come back to the move. Fortunately, the jacuzzi tub, the beautiful beach and the massages helped us to relax and enjoy each other for a week. It was a much needed rest and now we can enjoy our family in our new home in Vancouver :)



The entrance to the hotel, it was really beautiful! We visited the Mayan ruins and the "homes" were amazing, it is so crazy that humans once lived here! The views were breathtaking from the top of the caves!

Carson in his new backyard :) He absolutely loves the new house!! He explores the new areas everyday!! His favorite is the new bonus room/ Carson's play room- he is so spoiled :)
