Look at me, No Training Wheels

With the help of her friends and a beautiful fall day Adrianna managed
to ride her bike without training wheels yesterday. Amazing the
confidence friends can give you! Her sister will be following soon
after we are sure. They both absolutely love the neighborhood and
their gaggle of new friends!

Halloween Weekend

We got the girls dressed up so we could snap some pictures of them in
costume. Digging through the costume box we found Adrianna's Pooh
Bear costume from when she was 3 that fits Alicia perfectly now.
Adrianna wanted to be a Veterinarian this year! They both were very
cute and got to show off to their Uncles via video chat on Google+.
We also enjoyed some very delicious homemade donuts, and some
Halloween nachos! The girls are very excited for Monday night
Trick-Or-Treating.

Pumpkin Patch

Joseph took the girls to the Pumpkin Patch this weekend, they had a
blast riding the hay ride and picking their own pumpkins. Sometimes
the simplest activities are the most delightful. We are going to miss
carving out the "Pumpkin Brains" with cousin Bobby this year.

Back to School

Adrianna had a great first day at School here in Noblesville. The bus
stop is across the street from our house and there are 3 other
children near us all going to the first grade this year. Adrianna was
a little nervous going, but she bounded with excitement coming home.
Alicia was ready with open arms to welcome her back home. It was a
great start to what is looking to be a great school year for Adrianna.

Pick Ur Own Berry Farm

Sarah and the girls went to Spencer Farms to pick our own raspberries
today. We had a great time and got some wonderful berries. The farm
is just a few miles away from our house, so we are looking forward to
many future visits!

Happy Belated 4th Birthday Alicia

Alicia turned 4 in May, and things were a little too crazy to post
these pictures of her for her birthday. I cannot believe that it has
already been 4 years since this little girl gave us the surprise of
our life. She is cute, and she knows it and is not afraid to use it to
her advantage, especially with her daddy! Lately she thinks she is
Rapunzel and she loves to brush, and brush, and brush her hair. Her
biggest concern lately about moving has been ensuring that all her
stuffed animals will make the trip. Every time we leave the house,
even just to go to the store, she tries to wrangle up her stuffies and
bring them along. Should be interesting to see how she reacts once the
movers come. We look forward to the future surprises this girl will
bring!

Happy 7th Birthday Adrianna

Today we get to celebrate Adrianna's 7th Birthday. It has been an
exciting year for all of us. She has grown so much this year, both in
stature and maturity. She has excelled in school becoming a stellar
reader and mastering beautiful cursive. She has been a great help
around the house especially while her father travelled during much of
this year. She even got the hang of distance learning, doing reading
homework via Skype with her father. All in all we are very impressed
with everything Adrianna has accomplished this year. We hope she
enjoys an amazing Birthday, she earned it! We are all looking forward
to an exciting upcoming year as we start a new adventure in the
Midwest.

Indiana Bound!

It’s official Joseph’s company is relocating us to Indianapolis.  He’s been travelling back and forth this entire year and now they want him there permanently.  Though we are sad to leave Colorful Colorado, we are ready for this new adventure, we’ll make the best of being Hoosiers.  If all goes according to plan we will be moving sometime this summer.  Now the dreaded part, getting our house ready to sell.

Happy 4th Birthday Alicia

We celebrated Alicia's 4th Birthday this weekend. She has been so
excited to finally be turning four. I say finally because she has
been saying she was "fours" since her sister turned four when she had
just turned one. The big day came and we had a great time. Sarah
made a delicious and beautiful white chocolate and black raspberry
Tinkerbell cake. It was a hit. Thank you to all who joined us and
helped us make this day special for Alicia. It will be the last
birthday Alicia will celebrate in Colorado for a while! (More to
come)...
