Fall Fun

It has been a really fun fall season so far, we did lots of stuff. Maddie was a "Fairy Princess Barbie" whatever that is, she came up with that on her own..oh and we have more candy in this house (good thing I'm not a big fan, I prefer salty things) We also got a chance to go trick or treat at Brandon's school which was pretty awesome, and they handed out was chocolate and again not a big fan so no temptation for me :) We are getting ready at the Webster household to bust out the Christmas stuff, is it too early? I really don't care, I was listening to Christmas music yesterday and it put me in the mood. If you know me I rock out to Christmas music right after Thanksgiving non-stop, but this year it started way early. Oh and just in case you were wondering I do not, repeat do not like that "Christmas Shoes" song! I refuse to listen to it! I don't know how I got started talking about Christmas, but anyway Fall..yes I love it and this weekend I'm going to try to make Apple Nachos, we'll see how they turn out, I will keep you posted. I hope everyone is enjoying this awesome Fall weather.

Updates

Well I know it has been a while, but I know you understand. Where do I begin...well a few weeks ago I had a little pain on right side by my hip so, I called the nurse line to make sure everything was ok. I know you are thinking, why? no big deal it's just a little pain, and trust me I have a high tolerance for pain, but the reason was because I was 4 weeks pregnant. Yes, we are so excited and Maddie can not wait. Back to the nurse call....the nurse told me to take myself to the ER, and of course being the stubborn person that I'm I told her that I was fine. Well the pain got worse so I went to ER, and they informed me that I needed my appendix out..yikes! I had never had any major surgery, so I was a little scared because of course I'm pregnant. We prayed and God took care of us, and he protected the baby and I had a speedy recovery.

I have lots of Halloween pictures to come, I just have to my camera cable.

Family Fun

The last two weeks have been busy for the Websters, we went to Disney's Princess on Ice, a pumpkin patch, apple orchard, and Youngs Dairy. Maddie was so exited for all of it, except she did not like all the dirt at the orchard ( go figure). Ohio has had beautiful fall weather for us this year, and we have truly been able to appreciate fall and all the colors of the trees. Don't take me wrong Colorado had beautiful falls, but you can not appreciate the colors and all the trees around you so close to you, I know in Colorado you have to drive to the mountains to experience it at it's best. Every time we turn around I tell Brandon "look that's a postcard picture" it is just so pretty. The leaves are gold, red, orange, and wait for it..not brown or at least not yet. Disney on Ice was all that we expected and more, Maddie was screaming when her favorite princess came out, of course that is Ariel. She kept waving and telling me that she was the prettiest princess that she has ever seen. I love this age because she still thinks all of that is real, and really gets into it. The show was great, I recommend anyone with young children to take them. We were getting ready to leave when, you all know you can't leave that place without buying something, and of course we bought one of the snow cones in a Mickey Mouse cup which was $10 cheaper than the Tinkerbell! I tell you those Disney folk know how to market their stuff right so the kids want everything, and it's all SO expensive. At the end of the day you keep convincing yourself that it was all worth it because it created a memory, let's hope that is right. We also had a great time at the pumpkin patch, it was a really nice day! The weather was perfect. Maddie picked out pumpkins and of course at the same place they sale homemade ice cream which was delicious, and calorie free NOT. We had such a lovely weekend, I wish every weekend was like this just fun.

Gymnastics!!

We started tumbling this week, and our little girl could not be more excited! She looked so bid, where has all this time gone? I feel like it was just yesterday that we brought her home. She did great for her first class. She struggled a little bit on the back handspring training mat, she told the coach "nope I will not do that!" finally she decided to try it and she loved it! Well out of all things, I hope she keeps interest in this hobby because she looked to cute doing it. What can I say? I'm her number one fan:)

It feels like fall

Well it sure felt like fall here today, it was 68 degrees here! We felt it was the perfect day for a walk, we enjoyed it so much, we walk to the pond in our neighborhood and watched people fish, watched about a million squirrels along the walk, yes you read it right a million. Everywhere you go there is at least 5 squirrels to be spotted just about 6 feet away. We have truly enjoyed our Sunday, I can't wait to watch all the leaves change colors. It's one of my favorite seasons! Maddie and I are going to attempt to make a pumpkin pie this week, we will see how that goes I'll keep you posted. She says she will show me how to make one since this summer she made one with her great grandma. We will just have to see how much she really knows, I'm sure she remembers the entire recipe!

Finally Moved In!

Sorry I have not posted for a while, but you all can understand it was been really busy around here. Anyhow I'm back for good! We are all finally moved in, and box free. I have to tell you I was a wreck the first week I was here, I guess it really hit me that I have moved away from my family and friends. I think for the first time since this moving that I actually cried!(If you know me, you know I don't do that often)

Do you ever feel that sometimes we just fuss no matter how many blessings God has given us? Well I know I have been fussing a lot about this move, our house (which is smaller than we expected!), moving away from our church, friends, family, and so on...Well this last week God has really shown me how many blessings he has poured on my family during this season. First of all, I have found a good friend that we knew in Colorado and she lives right next to us, I'm able to stay at home with my daughter, and we found a good church. When I put it all into perspective, I really have been blessed and need to be happy! I really like the city we live in and the people are really nice. I guess I just need to stop looking at the negative and focus on the positive!

How am I going to explain this?

Well I'm packing everything today to leave tomorrow at 5 am, and to tell you the truth I'm getting easily distracted..ughh.. I hate it when that happens! Well we came to NC with 2 big pieces of luggage and 2 duffel bags, and there was plenty of space left, just in case I decided to do a little shopping while I'm here...as many of you know, I'm the SHOPPER of course always for bargains, my father in law makes fun of me because he says I always find everything for $3 or less. Well I have a problem, Maddie and my stuff does not fit in all that luggage, now Brandon knows that there was space left in there when we left CO. Oh man, I can't hide all my purchases! All I can say is that it was a good deal. Wish me luck on that conversation :) Hey but at least he will have a cute looking family.
