Our New Home

Starting December 12th Matt and I will be in a new residence. Our new home is a spacious 4 bedroom, 3 bath home located in North Central Phoenix. We fell in love with the neighborhood, the neighbors and the home's potential. For those of you who have keeping up with our home search, this home was #1 from my previous post "House Hunters Phoenix."

These aren't the best pictures and definitely highlight the homes "Grammy" baby blue and yellow feel -- just use your imagination! A little carpet and paint and this place will be beautiful. Best of all plenty of room for visitors and a pool (hint, hint). Did I mention the weather here is beautiful right now?

Thanksgiving Feast

With all the rush of the day I never did get any great pics of the table or family and friends. Here are a couple pics of the festivities.

My Boys

Love These Two! Does it get any better? I am so thankful for both of them and all the joy they bring into my life.

November Is Here...Eek

I get excited when I have a lot to look forward to, but I also get a little overwhelmed. We have a busy month. All fun stuff. Zak, Matt's younger brother, is getting married in two weeks. Jax and I leave for Utah tomorrow. After the wedding, we fly home and Matt's family comes here for Thanksgiving. That's right Martha and I are hosting Thanksgiving! We should have at least 15 people join us. If the temps stay what they've been we will be eating turkey and stuffing pool side!

Grandma Nancy is the Best

For those of you who know my Mom she is awesome. I spoke to her earlier today and she was driving out to Sheree's house to see all of her kids on Halloween, then to Angela's to see all the Shaeffer kids and last to Mike's to see Charlie. She even dressed up for Halloween too! How fun - I wish we lived closer to her.

Halloween at the Hospital

Tonight, Halloween night, I sat without a thing to do. Our townhome community doesn't offer the best streets to trick-or-treat on and I didn't make plans soon enough to tag along with a friend. Let's face it Jax doesn't really trick-or-treat anyway. So, rather than staying home and curling up to a scary movie I got decked out in my costume "A Devil wears Prada" and got Jax dressed in his monkey costume and headed for the hospital where Matt works. We took candy to give to patients, nurses, DRs and other hospital personnel.

It was the BEST!!! Jax loved every minute of it. Not only did he get to spend time with Daddy, he got SOO much attention from all the nurses and patients. Who doesn't love a monkey with big blue eyes, a big smile and two new teeth. He was absolutely adorable!!! It was so fun for me to see all the hospital staff Matt works with. But most of all it was so fun to see Matt interact with his patients. He has awesome bedside manner and is so caring and respectful! He was really busy, but rather than pushing us aside he brought Jax in with him as he consulted patients. He was so proud of his little guy. And we are so proud of him. Thanks Matt for all your hard work!!! ...too bad we weren't there late enough to see the Halloween crazies.

Weekend Trip to Northern Arizona

This weekend was so much fun! We were together as a family and loving every minute of it. Jax kept looking at Matt and looking back at me, smiling at both of us. Matt and I thought for sure he was excited to have his family all together. We rented the cutest log cabin 17 miles out of Flagstaff. It was soooo much fun! We saw the leaves changing colors, visited a town called Mormon Lake and visited Flagstaff. I told Matt I want to move to Flagstaff someday. I loved it!!

Happy Birthday to Me!

Who will be the first to wish me a happy 28th birthday? Ready, set, go....come on you nocturnal bloggers one of you has to be out blog stalking this fine evening.
