Sorry everyone, I know it's been a while since the last time I posted! Things have been so busy around here for us!
On October 1 Brandon started going to school four days a week! He LOVES it, and loves his teacher! It does make for many long nights though, as he is pretty tired by the time he gets home at the end of the day. I also started volleyball season October 1, so that has been hard trying to juggle him and the volleyball season.

For Fall Break Natalie and I went on a little trip to Northern California! We were able to go up with my mom to visit! We were able to see many people we love! We spent time with Bree, my grandma, great grandma, aunts, cousins, and my second grade teacher!! I love those women, and I know each one of them helped play a very special role in who I am today!!

While I was in California with Natalie, Brandon was able to have a sleep over at Grandma and Papas, and then have some special bonding time with daddy!!

| CHEESE!! |
 |
| This kid LOVES to eat apples! |
Natalie has been growing like crazy!! We went in for her six month appointment on Halloween, and she is now in the 98th percentile for her height!! She is only in the 14th percent for her weight, but the doctor isn't too worried about it. While we were there for Natalie's appointment we did confirm that Brandon might be allergic to peanuts!! EEK!! My next step is to get him in to an allergist so we can have him tested for that.

Tyler has been working hard on his grad school stuff. He has finished his student teaching, so now he is just finishing up classes! He is very excited to have that part behind him, and can't wait to be done with classes either.
I am sure that there is so much more to fill you in on, but that is all I have time for right now! I am getting ready to head to Vegas for a conference, and I was at work until 9:30 last night trying to get everything ready for my sub on Monday and Tuesday!! Our grading period ended yesterday, so I have to work on report cards while we are gone too. I'm excited about the trip though, spending time with friends, and seeing CHELSEA!!!
