Wow, I tell ya what, wow!

I can't believe it's been 5 months since I last posted, oh wait, yes I can!  I've only had this crazy thing called an infant to take care of, lol!  Once again, time has managed to sneak by me undetected and then blind side me!  Where has the past almost 6 months gone?? In 6 short days I'll have a 6 month old little boy on my hands ::insert scared/shocked face here:: and my niece will be 11 months!  They grow up too fast, and I have a feeling that that'll always be the case. 

So here's a quick update on life.  I'm still working at Strathmore Park Apartments as a Leasing Manager/ Assistant Manager and loving it (most days).  Bryan is working for a landscaping company called Rock & Co. out of Brighton doing everything from driving slabs of stone around all day, busting rocks with sludge hammers, and building pretty things :).  Logan is rolling all over the place, turning himself in circles (literally), and starting to get up on his hands and knees and rock back and forth!  This kid will be crawling before we know it!  Looks like we need to babyproof our house REALLY soon!

As it sits, the month of September has been amazing so far!  Our Nebraska friends drove down to see us over Labor Day weekend.  We went down to Colorado Springs to the Garden of the Gods, then over to Boulder to see Pearl Street and visit a few breweries.  The guys got to see some of their other fellow Marines from 169 so they were thrilled.  On top of that we got to see Marine 1!!!  It's one of the helicopters that the President flies in!  Logan even got to sit in the President's seat :D!  Who knows, maybe it'll be his seat one day.  It was a very cool and rare opporrtunity for us so of course we took pictures.  I'll have to add them later.  Getting to spend time with Ashley and Adam was definitely the highlight of my week.  We've missed having them around ever since Bryan got out.  Luckily we've decided that we're going to have to make seeing each other a regular thing!

The next week in September brought more friends and family to Colorado.  Two more of Bryan's previous 169 Marines were in Colorado with the Presidential squadron.  We met up with them at Bdubs and then had a Skee Ball competition at the Copper Rail.  Naturally I won ;).  Then two days later Bryan's dad was in town so we were able to see him at dinner!  This was the first time that he'd met Logan after already being 5 1/2 months old.  He fell head over heals in love with him right away.  Then again, it's kind of hard not to!  Life has just been pretty good over all.  I hope that this continues into October and the rest of the year.

I'm sure I'll be posting a little more often now that things have started to settle down a little bit.  Take care everyone and know that we miss and love you lots!!
