On October 17, my wonderful husband turned 29 years old. He was planning on celebrating the day by going to the Purdue vs Ohio State game. I was planning a family dinner of lasagna, salad, and garlic breadsticks for that evening to top off his day. I had to tell him that I invited my family to come over and join us. For those of you who know Jason and know how much he loves football and beer, you know why I had to let him in on this. He would have been drinking and having a REALLY good time, especially since Purdue won, and would have never made it home. But I wanted to make the dinner extra special. I called John and Rachel and Jake and Rox to invite them up and help me to surprise Jason. They were all game!! (John got his own surprise that week and was signed back to the Lions so he didn't get to join us for the party...but we are super excited for him!!)
So Saturday came and Jason went to the game, Jake and Rox were there too. Rachel and the girls came up early, so Bella got to have some fun playing with her cousins before everyone else got there. Jordan even came home early to join us. Jake and Rox rushed up to Plymouth after the game to beat Jason home. When he pulled in, he was both surprised and confused. I was excited because I actually surprised him. After hanging out for a bit, Randy, Mechelle, Austyn, Jenn, Justin, Mom, and Dad all joined us for a yummy dinner and cake!! We had such a great evening and it was so nice to spend time with Jason's family since we don't see them too often!!
Everyone enjoying themselves!
Nanny and her 2 little munchkins!
So this year I decided to make Isabella's Halloween costume. I couldn't find anything at the store that I like or that was worth the money. I decided to make her a Lady Bug. Her costumed turned out so much better than I thought it would! She's already gotten to wear it too! Nanny and Pappy had a Halloween party Friday night and all the kids dressed up. I can't wait to take her Trick-or-Treating for the first time this Saturday!
Bella Bug!
A few weeks ago we went to the pumpkin patch and got our pumpkins. We hadn't gotten around to carving them. So on Saturday night we decided to do just that. Jordan, Jason, Bella and I had so much fun and made such a big mess!
Not sure if she wants to help Mommy
Silly girl!!
