Baptism

November 12th was a very special day for us.  Libby was baptised.  We had lots of family and friends come to celebrate with us.  After the ceremony we had a nice dinner at our house to celebrate.  It was a great night and we are so happy to have shared this day with our family and friends.

Tim's sister Colette and her husband Kelly are Libby's Godparents.  Kelly was unable to get the time off to make it, but Tim's brother, Marvin was gracious enough to stand in as a witness.  Thank you Colette and Marvin!
















Trip to Missoula

We made a trip to Missoula a few weeks ago and went to the last home Griz game.  It's a long trip to make but we always have fun.  We stayed three nights so it was a little more relaxing.

Of course we had to visit campus and go to the Bookstore so we could get Libby some griz gear!


On game day we went to the Press Box for breakfast and Bloody Mary's, as is tradition!  We then headed over to the tailgates and wandered around and talked to some family and friends that were also going to the game.

It was a pretty cold day, so we only styaed til halftime.  We all were a little chilly.  So we watched the rest of the day in the comfort of our hotel room!  Besides the game, our weekend consisted of eating and shopping!  It was nice t oget away for awhile and have a little mini vacation.

Happy Halloween!

We were really excited for Libby's first Halloween.  I'd have to say Halloween is about my favorite holiday.  It took me months to find a costume for Libby.  But I found found an adorable little black kitty costume.  I wasn't sure how she was goign to like being dressed up in a costume but she didn't seem to mind it one bit! 

We started off Halloween on Saturday night. We had famimly movie night at the school where we watched "Spooky Buddies".  We've been trying to do Family Movie Night every month and so far it's going well.  the kids really seem to enjoy it.  Libby wore a special little Halloween outfit that grandma had bought.

On Halloween we got ready for the program at school.  The kids put on a Halloween concert.  I love going to those programs.  It's so much fun to see the excitement and energy of the little ones and the talent and hard work of the older students.  They did an amazing job.  After the concert the senior class had a dinner fundraiser.  It was quite a yummy meal!  Then after that they had a cake walk, pie eating contest, costume contest ad pumpkin carving contest.  Then the kids all got to go "Trunk-or-Treating".  Across the street in the church, the high school kids constructed a Haunted House in the basement.  They put alot of hard work into it and it looked amazing.  It was a great night.  We are so blessed to live in this great community!

Cutest little kitty ever!

Trip to Bozeman

 We recently enjoyed a little vacation in Bozeman.  It was such a f un weekend, spent with family.  Always nice to get away for awhile.  The first stop of course was the MSU Bookstore where Tim just had to buy Libby some Bobcat gear!  Of course Tim and Libby had to have their picture taken with Emma Sue Bobcat!


That night we met up with my aunt and uncle, Dale and Corinne, and my cousin Jessica and her husband Jake and their two kids.  We had dinner together and then went to Dale and Corinnes where we played cards and visited.

The next morning we got ready for the Bobcat football game. We met Tim's sisters Carol and Colette and Colette's husband Kelly on campus.








Libby was such a little tropper. She made it through the whole game. She just sat and watched all the people and things going on around her and just entertainted herself with her toys.




Sunday we made a trip out to Rocky Creek Farm with Dale, Corinne, Jess, Jake and kids.  It was such a beautiful fall day.  We took a little hayride out to the pumpkin patch where we picked pumpkins.  Then we walked around and saw the goats, sheep, pigs and chickens.







Afterwards we went to Jess and Jakes for a birthday party for Greta, who just turned 1!






After cupcakes and presents it was finally time to come home.  It was such a great weekend.  Lots of fun and family! I'm really hoping the weather is nice next weekend so I can get my revenge on Tim and take libby to a U of M Grizzly game!!  Gotta keep her balanced right?

In other news, not quite crawling yet.  So close.  She's just too busy rolling around all over the floor, and under the couch!  She has an appointment next week.  Very curious to see how much she has grown!  Will keep you posted!
