We did get to have fun down at Grandma and Grandpa's Lake and then also at G &G's Farm. While we were back for a short vacation we had fun going to Andrew and Niki's wedding and also baptized baby Nathan.
Shortly after that Justin took a new job that required us to relocate to the Dallas Tx area. As you can imagine cleaning up the house, listing it for sale, house hunting in TX and moving down was the craziest time in our lives to date. We packed as much as we could into our expedition and made the long drive down to TX, stopping to stay the night at G&G French's. We arrived in TX on Nov 2 and found our temporary apt. While small, it was nice and cozy and after all it was just temporary. After 74 days of living ther (who's counting?) we finally moved into our new house on Jan 14, 2010. So far we are really enjoying it, there is much more space to run and play and we even have a decent backyard for Ginger to play in.
Not to make excuses, but between chasing the two boys and moving to TX, I could not find time to update the blog. Those times were filled with highs and lows, including so many new words and phrases that Nikolas can say, most of them so funny! Nathan continues to go with the flow and is quite content sitting and playing. When he finally started to crawl at 11 months he finally realized there is so much to see and do. I will continue to remember and share the great times from that year, but mostly I am focusing on the future!
A few pic's:
Hands free! Nathan loves to sleep in here.

Happy Halloween from the cowboy and the turtle!
More cute than scary.
After bags of Halloween candy these boys are still going strong.

I have never seen our car so full. 4 suitcases on top and the insides stuffed to the gills. Ginger in the front seat, me and the boys in the middle.
At the new apartment where we stayed longer than we expected. Go K-State!
