Movin' Around

So the kids and I spent the week in Kentucky and had a blast. We haven't been staying more than a few days since we are still in a hotel and that isn't so easy with 2 little ones for very long. But they did really good this week and Nick and Neila are great and let us use their house for a get away and dinners so that makes it easier. Our house is coming along good and we got our driveway this week so from the front it looks done, the inside not so much though. It is ready to paint and to get the flooring in though, so once that is done I am hoping it will go quickley from there. I got my new washer and dryer ordered this week and am SO exicted. I got the whirlpool cabrio and it has all the bells and whistles and since I love doing laundry (weird, I know) I am really excited to see how it works. Neila and I had a blast and are so excited for us to get moved in so we can have fun days all the time like we did this week. We went to the picture people on Thursday and Maggie did awesome. Her pictures turned out adorable and she was such a little model for them. Owen on the other hand needed his feet cemented to the floor. He would not stand still for a second, let along pose. Here are some of them, I can get them off the site but not without the "zazzle" sign across the front so just ignore that.
























We spent all day thursday and friday shopping till the kids literallly dropped as you can see from Owen.



















Maggie has turned into a pro shopper already and had fun posing with the old navy dog that she loves.


















We got tons of great deals and stocked up on alot of next year clothes for the kids.
We got Owen and Carson matching "heartbreaker" outfits but Owen was literally POURED into his so I returned it but not before we got a shot of them together.



















Maggie wasn't about to let a photo shoot go down without her in the middle of it though.












Joe is really liking his new job and the hours are great. He and Nick have began a workout routine and get up 3 days a week at 5 am and workout at the gym before going into work. Pretty impressive huh, Needless to say Neila and I are not going to be joining them but we do hope to get to the gym in the evenings so the boys don't look better than us at the beach this summer!
We headed back to mom and dad's this evening after dropping Joe off in Lexington to meet his dad and brother as they were going to a UK game. Joe is then heading here to Poca tommorow and has to work in Ashland all week so he will be staying with my cousins who live about 25 minutes from there. The following week he goes to Alabama all week for a training thing at work and hopefully the following week we will be in our house.....we hope!
That is about all going on with us, we are looking forward to having fun in WV with everyone and of course the kids are thrilled Amanda is here so they definetely won't get bored. Here are a few old pictures of the kids from this summer that I never got access to until latley. I thought they were really cute.
