Figured this was worth a short blog. Ava started preschool this September and after I dropped her off Cole and I went to the park. When we left the park I got hit from my side.. long story short- my fault, we were okay, my car has been bye, bye since. At the time it was one of those sayings "when it rains it pours" thank goodness Grant got the best news a few weeks after this. That we would be moving to the Central Coast. Thank you God! No really, thank you God!
Yep we are moving back to California! Better yet we are gonna be living in Grover Beach! Grant landed an amazing job for PG&E at the nuclear power plant in Avila Beach. We will be official residents December 4th! This is wonderful news for our family we have really been thru so much in 2010. We are so ready for 2011!!
We had such a fun Halloween this year. Ava was a lady bug and Cole was a firefighter. We first went to the pumpkin patch in the morning and the kids bounced in the bounce house and went down the pumped up slide a billion times or until we were out of money. After that they had a great nap and we went off to our friends house and went trick or treating. It was Ava's first year of completely understanding the concept and Cole was adorable following around the older kids. For sure a fabulous Halloween!
Throwing a MAJOR fit because his birthday cake had a car on it that he wanted and I wanted a picture of him with the cake.. the picture didn't happen.
The cake that stressed out Cole.
So I haven't blogged in about 3 months! Yikes! It is one of my new year's resolutions to be a more active blogger but I am thinking I should start before January. Going to start at Cole's 2nd birthday. He turned 2 October 2nd and we just had both sets of grandparents come to our place to celebrate. Turned out to be a good idea because well to say the least Cole was pretty "stressed" out about the whole birthday thing. As you can see from above. It did end up being a nice time with family at least.
One of my dear friends came to visit us in Vegas! Much to my begging her to come so I could meet Luke her first baby! It was such a wonderful 3 days visiting with her and sweet Luke! (totally made me had baby fever!)
It has been hoooot outside the last few weeks. So besides going to the pool in the a.m. we have been trying to do things inside the house. Ava is pretty content with her projects and both of them play pretty well together or separate. Looking forward to October when we can actually hang at the park and do some more outdoor activities!
We went to go return something at the mall and decided to take the babes on the merry go round too. Only to find out it's free on Wednesdays! How awesome is that!? Stuff like that makes me excited. So we rode 2 times. Both babes loved it!

We took the girls to Shark Reef last week and it was lots of fun. I gotta say when you have been to the best aquariums there are this is a bit of a disappointment but it's always fun with good friends. Afterwards we went window shopping and then of course had some delish frozen yogurt. Good times!
