I will miss this beautiful lake....

....when we move! Nate, I and the kids went to the lake last Tuesday night. It was really nice outside and we had to take advantage of it since it may be the last until spring rolls around again. The kids had a blast! It's been pretty cold these past couple of weeks so they haven't got to play outside very much. They were in heaven, as were Nate and I. Just to be together just the 4 of us was awesome. It seems so rare these days to get a lot of family time in. We were the only ones there as if it were our own backyard! We've had so many good times at this lake. It will definitely be missed when we move next summer..... (Oh yeah I haven't posted where we are going yet. Most of you know but we are heading to York, Pennsylvania in June sometime for Nate's 3rd and 4th year rotations. That was our first choice and we are super excited to experience the East Coast :)) Anyway...... back to what I was saying.....I think I was actually done, so enjoy the pics...haha!
I love these beautiful kids. How did I get so lucky!




They look so much alike, so cute!




Note: Tanner has this thing..... he has to take off his shoes and socks wherever he goes and just makes himself at home. I had to capture this shot with his socks in one place and his shoes in another. My cute boy :)





Love you babe!

They LOVE throwing rocks!!





Loves to be just like her brother :)

So independent and getting SO big!
GOOD TIMES!!

Halloween week with G.& G. Gibb!

My wonderful mother in-laws came to visit. She arrived on Tuesday night of last week and then my wonderful father-in-law flew in on Saturday and they flew home together on the 1st. We had SO much fun with them. It was hard to say goodbye. It was fun that we got to spend Halloween with them. We did all of our trunk-or-treat parties on Saturday and then had more of a relaxing day on Halloween since it was their last day here. We went bowling at K-Ville's awesome (GHETTO) bowling alley. It was a lot of fun other than the smell that place has - EWWW! Tanner was SO excited to hand out candy on Halloween and on our street I knew we wouldn't get very many if not any trick-or-treaters. So Nate escaped into the garage and put on a quick costume and rang the door bell. Tanner ran to the door "We got a trick-or-treater". He opened the door and Nate disguised his voice and said trick-or-treat and Tanner gave him some candy. He was SO happy!! I looked at Jocie while Tanner was giving him candy and she couldn't stop staring at his mask. It was SO funny. Even after we shut the door, she was still looking at the door wondering what in the world just happened and who was that crazy person at our door. We had a couple others come throughout the night, so it went ok :) Anyway, we went out to eat a few times, watched some fun movies, went to Columbia to Sam's and played that week! Tanner and Jocie were hooked to their grandparents and miss them already. Thanks for coming to visit and for everything. We love you guys!! My parents are coming for Thanksgiving week. We are now looking forward to seeing them in 13 days - WAHOO!! We love visitors!
