ALRIGHT, ALREADY!

I am back to blogging after our having MANY people complain about my lack of recent posts. One word for all "you people"...MOVING!!!
So in case you were wondering, we have moved into our new house! Phil totally outdid himself on this awesome, energy and space efficient, cost effective, beautiful house. I will post pictures soon. We are so happy to have a little more space than we did in our rental, and equally happy to have LESS space than we did in our previous house. Phil and his dad worked sooooo hard the last month, so that we could get in faster...WOW what a team. And Phil's mom came and helped every Saturday doing the jobs that no one else wanted to do (servant's heart) and my mom came and measured and drilled every single one of my cabinet doors so that I could put my cabinet handles in precisely the correct spot (as most who know me, that is impossible for me to accomplish:) So that is the moving update.
Here are some totally unrelated pictures, but so sweet from our trip to the Pumpkin Patch this weekend (yes, we actually can do something on the weekends now besides work on the house and go to Lowes!)



The kids saying "pumpkin patch" Evalin obviously is still stuck on "paaaaatch"
Sigh, my heart...


Is is just me or is he about the cutest thing ever?

Almost as heavy as her own body!!! HA!

Say "cheesy"
Am I really that white or do I just appear so compared to my daughter?
My very cool 1st grader (notice his hands...HA!)

Well, I just left a message on Facebook about the pumpkin patch pictures! So cute! We are waiting patiently to see pictures of the house! Not sure when we will actually see the house in person.:(
We love you all! Glad that you are able to do fun things on the weekend again!

So glad you're getting settled! I must say that your pumpkin patch puts ours to SHAME!

Thanks for the post! I loved looking at the pictures, too. Thanks for taking the time to put them up! I miss you all and am happier and sadder to see you on the computer and not in real person. Love you all!
