HE'S HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Brad is finally home!!!!!! I was so excited Friday night, I couldn't hardly stand it. I couldn't wait to see him pull in the drive way. When he did, I gave him a great big hug and kiss. I didn't realize how bad I really missed him.

Needless to say, we spent the whole weekend together!!!!!!!!!! Except Sunday, they had to bale hay.

2 days down....3 to go

Well Brad has been gone Prairie Dog hunting for 2 days now. They are coming back sometime on Friday. Jacob and I have come to the decision that he can never leave home again for full week ever again inless he takes Jacob and me with him.

The really bad part is that they don't have horrible cell phone signal out there so service is touch and go. He basically calls in whenever can get service. Last night he called around 10pm and said that he had to buy a calling card just to be able to talk to us last night. He said that he was having a good time but was ready to come home. Jacob and I seconded that one.

Jacob was turd last night to get down to bed. He didn't understand why Brad could not come home or why he was not laying next to us in bed. He said that we couldn't stay at home because Brad was not there with us. It was cute in its own way. He looked up at me with his blue eyes and said, "Mommy I miss him, I want him to come home now" Poor guy.

Happy Birthday Jacob!!

Sunday, September 14th was Jacob birthday. I can not believe that my baby is 3 years old already. We celebrated his birthday Friday night, September 12th. I think everyone had a good time, I sure know that Jacob did!! He got all kinds of trucks and tractors, animals, a fishing pole and tackle box and lots more!!! He did not know what to do with himself.

I promise to post birthday pictures soon!

Well today is the day that Brad leaves for his big prairie dog hunting trip. He will not be back until Friday sometime. He is excited about going but not excited about leaving Jacob and I at home. He is a big family man and has not really spent a whole lot of time without us so he is trying to adjust. We will see what happens.

Fairly Calm Weekend!

For once, we had a fairly calm weekend. Friday night, I met my sister Katie in town and picked up a new puppy. Actually he is a year old, beagle. His name is John. Apparently he is potty trained and everything. Well on the way home, he decided to poop in my back seat and then tracked it to the front and then right as I pulled in the drive way he puked in my purse. YUCK!! Thank Gosh for leather seats!!

Saturday morning, Trisha and I went to the Cole County Fall Festival. We had a blast! We both bought some really beautiful floral arrangements for our homes. By the time we left, only 2 1/2 hours later, we had a car full. Then later that afternoon, Brad and I went down to mom and dad's to help dad drive some post. Fun, fun!

Sunday, we got up and went to church and then went grocery shopping at Wal-Mart. NOT FUN! Later on Janice BBQ chicken and we called it a night.

AHHHH!

LIFE!

Sorry for all the blank space. The last few weeks have been absolutely insane. I was out and off work for a whole week with Strep and then Jacob came down with it and I was home with him for a while. It has been crazy.

This past weekend we finally got rock put all around the house along with landscaping ties. May I say it looks great! I will post pics soon.

Today Brad is rained out of work so he and the guys are pouring concrete in the shop. FINALLY!! Brad is not quite as excited about it as I am. Wonder Why?!

More to come.....
