Finally.. a new post :)

Hi Everyone!

Well it has been awhile since we have posted anything and I can't believe its the end of September already. Here is a quick update on what we have been doing the past 2 months. In August we were in Chicago twice. We had a wedding in the beginning of August, then we went there over Labor Day to spend a couple days with our friends Rick and Shannon. It was great to catch up. We miss our weekly outings in Appleton!

Bringing in September didn't bring the best news to our family. My grandma passed away after a long fight! She has been sick for a couple years now and the past couple of months, she hasn't been doing very well and was in a lot of pain. She is now our little angel and is not suffering anymore. The picture above is a family picture from that weekend. It was nice to see everyone on my dad's side. We had a lot of fun even if we were all there for a bad circumstance.

My mom came up last weekend to visit. On Saturday we went to Stillwater for lunch and shopping with Aunt Julie, Aunt Dona, Emily and Katie. It was a beautiful day and we had a lot of laughs. Nik was happy that day because I think he watched football for 12 hours straight :)

Now that we are living in Minnesota, this will be the first time Nik hasn't coached football or played since I met him. So I knew he would miss it. I volunteered him to coach our 8 year old neighbors flag football team :) Actually, our neighbor asked him to, but I told him it would be great!! At least it gets him to see some football, even though its flag. He is enjoying it...I think !! They only have 1 practice and 1 game a week. So he can still watch his college football on Saturday's which he hasn't been able to do that forever!

Other than that, we still putting together the house and its getting there! We made a list of everything we want to do the house and hopefully can get some stuff done over the winter.

I will try to do the post more often.. things coming up in the next couple of months:

October- St. Norbert Homecoming. A bunch of us are going to DePere for the weekend!

November- We are going to Las Vegas with my parents for 4 days!

December- Nik and I are hosting Christmas this year on my moms side. Should be interesting! 30 people in our house all at the same time!! We will have fun.. I better start preparing now :)

Hope all is well with everyone!
