Our basement is finally done!!! For all of you who don't know, we started the huge task of finishing our basement and turning it into a bedroom/office for Andy and me. It's finally done (except for a few lights and a closet organizer). We're moved in--that's the important thing, and we love it downstairs. It's warm and quiet and cozy. Now the kids also have their own rooms, which is working out so well. We also put a half bath downstairs so that makes a huge difference in our house.

Here's Josh's room--all to himself. I need to change a some of the decorations to look more "boyish." But overall, its a nice big space just for him.





Olivia got her new room FINALLY!!! We finished the basement and moved our bedroom down there. Olivia loves her new room and thanks God for it every time she prays.

Lots of Love

Josh likes to give kisses now, and while it's still open-mouthed, it's pretty sweet.

A Lady and the Tramp moment Olivia and Andy shared over spaghetti.


Happy Halloween


So we failed to ever get a great picture of Dora and Boots together. Josh hated his hat and it never stayed on for more than 2 seconds. But he seemed to enjoy having a tail, and Olivia loved her Dora costume.




We didn't get a picture of us either (Dora's cousins Diego and Alicia), but we got a great pic of our friends Jenn and Tyler as a 40s couple. They looked so sharp!
