Month in Review

It has been a crazy month, lots happening and not much time for me to be online and no updates.  I was finally able to sit down and look through the pictures we have taken over the last month and get to some updates!
We had an ultrasound, baby is growing great and we found out the gender.  We had the technician put it in an envelope.  Then we went to Party City with a big empty box and had them fill up balloons based upon the gender in the envelope.  It was a little strange to have the employee at Party City know what we were having before we did...small price to pay for a fun surprise!
We then headed to a park for the unveiling...it's a...
BOY!!!
 We are all super excited, Trigg is pumped to teach his little brother about cars, trains and helicopters!
 We also celebrated Heather's birthday!  I smoked brisket and ribs for the good part of the day.
 We rented Barnes Place in Adel for the party, we had lots of food...
 and lots of desserts!
 The table is set!
 We had some awesome cookies made for the party too!
 We had a ton of fun celebrating Heather, we played some game and laughed a lot!
 No birthday would be complete without a birthday cookie!
 Trigg and I celebrate National Dress Like Dad Day!
 At the end of August, Heather and I spent a long weekend in Vegas!
 We had a lot of fun seeing all the sights
 Watching the fountains dance...
 ...and seeing Cirque du Soleil show Love!
 It was a fun little trip but we were excited to get back home!
 Nana, Mom and Trigg headed to Grandma-Great's house one Wednesday afternoon to pick apples.
 "Found one"
 Trigg found lots of apples...and one baseball!
 They had a great time picking apples...now to make some applesauce and apple crisp and apple butter...
We also moved into our new house this past month and have been working hard to make it feel like home, there have been lots of updates, pictures to come!  And just like that September is over and fall is here!
