Loose Moose

Hello again!  I didn't quite make it a full 6 months without blogging, although I sure was close!  ;)  The reason for such a hiatus was A) our computer got overloaded and couldn't function to pull up my calendar, much less run picture programs necessary for blogging, and B) I became overwhelmed over the fact that I was very behind, because I post all my pictures chronologically for blog book purposes.  Alas, now I am not only 6 months behind, but a full year behind!  Huzzah!  I have decided to finish out 2011 in what will hopefully be as minimally tedious as possible, then I will move on to a new chapter in my blogging and just blog about what is current and what I want to and not worry about posting every picture of our lives.  Novel, right?

So last fall I was able to head to a friend's cabin with some incredible women who I feel very fortunate to call my friends.  These women are incredibly uplifting, and that is just the kind of weekend away a mom needs every once in awhile.  And let's be honest, Will loves the boy time with dad!

The beautiful leaves on the way there were already starting to turn.

We found out why their cabin is called Loose Moose.  We came back from shopping and found this lovely dude, along with the mom and babies, just kickin' it on the front doorstep.  Ok, more like the front lawn.  Oh yeah, and we weren't supposed to show the pic of the moose literally kickin' our lovely hostess' husband's car.  Sorry Aliesha :)

Hey ma, look how close we are!  Thanks for being such a nerd with me, Jamie.  I can always count on you for support ;)

Oh man, we are awesome.

We all brought different kinds of yummy, gooey popcorn to snack on.  Jamie makes a good Vanna White, no?

The whole crew gathered around for Jamie's impromptu "devotional".  I love you girls!!
