Sunset before the snow.

Random Pics

She knows how to trash a hotel room. I thought Axl Rose had stopped by.

Amber and her friend Deja.

I love biscuits and gravy: especially in my hair.

Beans beans the magical fruit....

Just because she is so cute

Super cute dress from Aunt Neysa and Uncle Don.

And again.

One of the best things about Italy: Gelato!

Pumpkin Festival

We went to the Pumpkin Festival in Venzone a few months ago. It was really fun and interesting. There were a lot of parades, musicians, merchants, and food. Every kind of pumpkin type of food you can imagine was available. Pumpkin pizza, pumpkin soup, pumpkin pasta, pumpkin pone (that might have been what it was was anyways). It was a lot of fun-even in the rain.

This was a show of people trying to sell a toilet. Even though it was in Italian it was pretty funny.

Halloween Fun

This year I planned ahead and ordered Amber's Halloween costume early. Well it never came in so I had to scramble to make her costume my self. I started with one of Andy's old uniforms:

Cut it all up:

And did some serious experimenting:
And Voila!

A few of Amber's favorite hang outs.

Poor Bebe

We're still here.

I know it has been a long time since I have posted anything to the blog, but I have a good excuse. I got my student teaching placement and have been teaching for four weeks! So exciting! I should be finished at the end of Nov. Amber spends her days with the babysitter-my friend Becca and seems to really like it there. She turned 1 a couple of weeks ago and is getting so big. I will be posting pics from her birthday party asap. Which could be a long time from now as I am swamped every day! But it was a great party. So that is what is going on here. We are missing Andy and can't wait for him to get home. He is doing good and staying very busy. We are still hoping that he'll be home for Christmas (not only in our dreams-but for real). We miss you all^keep in touch!

Laughter is the Best Medicine

I love listening to Amber laugh and could do it all day everyday. You'll have to check out the link to the video because I wasn't able to upload it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yLn5cdajyjQ Enjoy!
