What's new with Us and Happy Thanksgiving :)

So I have been a bit behind on my blog entries lately, with good reason. So short story ... Tristen tripped over the power cord to the camera and broke a part off of the charging base, which equals dead camera and not being able to retrieve the pics off of it. Yes, since our camera is 2 yrs old, we were unable to pick up a part for it at a regular store (discontinued it) so we had to find it on ebay. Long story made short, all is well now and the camera is up and running. I am a picture person only when it comes to blog entries, and I must admit it is hard catching up when you are behind on things...hence my slide show. So below are some pics we have taken over the past month and a half. Some of our happenings include Blackberry Farm and Halloween. Tristen was Minnie Mouse and Blake was Mickey Mouse..I will post more pics of him in a later entry. Plus, there are just some random pics of the kids. Our little family is doing well though. We are excited for Jason to complete his last class of his Natural Gas Master's degree in the next couple of weeks!!!! He is also way excited to be starting his MBA program in Jan. So busy timee are definitely ahead of us. Blake is now 5 months old and the teething phase has started...poor guy. Tristen is doing well, she is a funny little girl....She can drive me crazy at times but her personality cracks me up. I have never seen a kid get as excited as she was for Halloween. She cut through every one's lawns, she was trying to open peoples doors so she could take their candy stash, she was practically pushing kids out of the way to make sure she was the first one to get candy at the doors. Not to mention she was giggling, screaming (b/c she was having so much fun), and falling down on the sidewall and grass b/c she was so focused on getting candy from the next house. Oh the memories this little girl gives us.

The pictures were great. Best of luck to Jason! By the way, I met a Matt that he grew up with. He works at ATK in Utah. It was great to make that connection.
