August has come and gone. Our house is getting so close! It's been fun watching it go up and I'm crossing my fingers we picked good options, haha. I feel like it's a surprise at this point since I can't remember half the things we chose. But its looking great and we are getting closer!
 |
| Taking a break with dad. All this house building is hard work! |
 |
| Grayson insists on walking Bella these days! It always turns out to be the other way around, but good thing she's the best dog around! |
 |
| Watching t.v. together :) Bella is the most patient, loving dog! |
 |
| Every morning after breakfast, we walk over to see the trains and let Bella run wild. Grayson loves the "choo-choo"! |
 |
| Riding bike with cousin Alivia! |
Day at the Zoo:
 |
| Gray's first time at the zoo was a hit! He ran around like a crazy guy, saying "hello" to everyone and asking all the kids "did you see it?!" Needless to say, I left buying a year pass :) |
 |
| Grayson loves the dinosaurs at the zoo- he RAWRS back at them and tries hard to be brave, haha |
 |
| My fav is always the polar bears. I love that they still have the same lion drinking fountain that i drank out of as a kid! |
 |
| Spent the day at the Homestead with family! |
 |
| Saying "cheeeese!" in front of the goats, haha |
 |
| He seriously loved feeding the goats. Who knew they liked dog biscuits and pretzels!? |
 |
| Marching back and forth over the crater. Laying down on his belly at the top to holler "hello!" to the swimmers below. |
 |
| Gray LOVES his aunt Teri! She's the best. |
Matt Townsend Date Night with Matt's parents, mine, and my sisters (plus husbands). Can't beat a free date night that offers free Cold Stone and lots of laughs!
Some other exciting news... I officially graduated with my BSN! I was debating whether to walk since I had finished my classes a few months ago, but I'm so glad I did. All that hard work, time and stress really felt like it paid off. It was a great ceremony and reminded me that I can do anything! A small part of me thinks I will eventually go back for more one day.. shhh! don't tell Matt ;)
 |
| I had the best cheerleaders- so thankful for all their support! |
 |
I love this pic. Grayson LOVES helicopters (go figure) and especially loves remote helicopters. I've never seen him so happy when he has the controls :) Love these two.
