Fun, Family, Friends

August and September were fun and busy months for us. Eric and Alahna went to Colorado for 2 1/2 weeks to visit all our families out there. Unfortunately I had to work, so I wasn't able to go. They had a great time with all the grandmas and grandpas playing, hiking, going to the children's museum, balloon festival and many other fun things. Alahna loves spending time with all her grandparents (and I'm sure they had fun too).





It was hard for me to be home a lone, but I made the most of it and had some fun myself. One of my best (and longest)friend came out to visit me for a girls weekend. We did lots of girly things that we don't get to do with our husbands and kids...chick flicks with ice cream, shopping, wine bar, a spontaneous trip to the beach! It was a really great time! Unfortunately as many of you know, Pennsylvania has a large population of ticks that harbor Lyme Disease. Jennifer unknowingly got bite on our walk in the woods and came down with a bad case of Lyme Disease!! She is going better now that she is on the proper treatment. Boo!!




Once Eric and Alahna got back, September was filled with lots of family fun. We went to our first Philly's game! Alahna LOVED it! She was dancing and swinging the towel, yelling yay and giving "knuckles" to everyone around us! It was quite the event =)



We also got to enjoy the Ephrata town fair with my family. Grandma and Grandpa spoiled all the grandkids and we got to go on a lot of rides and eat good food. It was really fun.




The church we go to turned 2 today. It is so good to be a part of a growing and lively church. God is good and has been very good to us! We got to celebrate the church's aniversary today out at Bud's farm. We had a blast. There were tractors, jeeps, a jumping castle with a slide and lots of great friends. We are excited to see what God has in store for us in the this coming year!
