Let the countdown begin...














The waiting game has begun, we are hoping to close on our home by the 23rd or 25th of this month. We are praying it happens! The paint samples have been picked out and we have a lot to do between now and the 5th of December. That being the day we have to be completly moved out of our apartment. Blaa, apartment...can't wait to be home owners!

I am completley ready for Thanksgiving, minus a couple of ingrediants. Jake has a few Army boy's coming over, so that'll be fun. Football and Turkey; SCORE! There is a delicious twist on French's green bean caserole recipe that I am making. So it's really all from scratch. Also instead of a regular Pumpkin pie, I have found a Pumpkin cream pie. Delicious.

Yesterday we did a lot of shopping for furniture in the new casa...today we'll stop at another store. We are getting Isabelle a brand new bedroom set. Her dresser broke in our move here, so she has had all her clothes in the closet and a tub for the last 5 months :(. We are going to go with a white or cream bedroom set! I can't wait till she sees it. Our little girl is getting so big. Now that she is in her day bed the twin is the next size up. Her crib will be temporarily put away until baby number 2 arrives.
We also finally got to see the new PX (military shopping center on Ft Bliss.) The Christmas lights are up, there is a colorful waterfall, and a cute kids play area. Did I mention there is an outdoor fireplace as well? Isabelle loved the waterful wth changing colors and we couldn't pull her away for the longest.

P.S. I have yet to catch Isabelle's mean face. Her eyebrows twist up, and she gives you this look like 'are you high mom (dad).' It's histarical, but at the same time makes us sad. How can such a sweet face give mommy n daddy a look like that? Well probably becuase she's got my personality and her father's saracasm...this morning Jake said 'ok Hannah' to her when she gave him that look! hahaa...

Let this fun weekend continue...Happy Sunday!
