Cute pics of the kids

We are starting to feel settled in our new house.  The kids love the house.  There is so much room for them to run around and play.  Here are some pictures of them playing at the house.

Since the kids have a playroom now, we were able to move Cate's dresser out from under her bed.  Now the kids can play under the bed.  They love having a little fort.

Here is a picture of Cate posing for a picture outside our house.

Ashton is getting so big.  He takes up almost the entire crib now.  They are so cute when they are sleeping.

This is a picture of Ashton right after he woke up from his nap.

Cate hanging out on the couch.  (You can tell by the bruise on her knee that her and Ashton have been having a lot of fun playing)

Ashton loves to ride on Cate's Dora tricycle.  He loves it so much that it was creating a lot of fighting between Cate and Ashton.  So Eric and I bought Ashton his very own Batman tricycle.  The kids love to ride them around the house and in the driveway.

Cate dressed up as Cinderella and was riding her tricycle all around the house.  

It was my birthday on Wednesday and Cate and Ashton wore party hats and sang me Happy Birthday.

On my Birthday, Cate started to not feel well and then she got a high temperature.  She was also complaining of pain when she went to the bathroom.  So that night Cate and I had a trip to the ER.  3 hours and two vomits later we had a diagnosis of urinary tract infection.  They prescribed her antibiotics and she is now feeling much better.  

Warrior Dash

Eric, Mike, Clay and I competed in the Warrior Dash up in Copper this weekend.  It is a great event that includes running, mud and obstacles.  Here is the link to the website that shows all of the different obstacles and gives a great description of the event.  Warrior Dash 

As you can tell by our pictures we got very muddy.  I have to say that this had to be one of the best times of my life.  I had such a blast running the course and it was fun to do something completely different.  

This is right after the race when we all met up.  We all got very muddy, but Mike wins for being the muddiest.  

I love being married to someone who loves to do fun and crazy things with me!

After we got all cleaned up, the boys each had Turkey Legs

New House!

2 weeks ago Cate started school again.  She is going to the same school as last year and really enjoys it.  She was very excited because her good friend Tenley is in her class again.  Here is a picture of her all ready for her first day of school.

Over the weekend we moved into our new house!  It is about 2 miles from our town home so the move wasn't too far away.  The new house was a new build so we were able to pick out the counters, cabinets, flooring, etc.  It is so nice to finally be getting settled into this beautiful home.  It has much more space than our town home had and we absolutely love the neighborhood!  There are a lot of kids in the neighborhood and the elementary school is just down the street from us.  We couldn't be more happy with the house and the location.  Here are a few pictures of the new house:

The family room

The kitchen and dining area (which is attached to the family room)

The upstairs loft that we are using as a play room for the kids.  It is great to have a room to put all of the kid's toys.


More pictures to come as we get more settled...
