The night Nils came home!
So, as you know Nils has been in Afghanistan for the past 3 months. Well on the 19 of October her finally came home! Jacee and I we
re so excited! We spent all day getting the house clean, getting balloons, decorating a cake, making welcome home signs, and just waiting around. His plane was scheduled to come home at 11:55 p.m. This was my first time doing this, and I was nervous! We left the house at 11, and drove to the hangar where we would pick him up. There were so many people there with flags, posters, and they were all cheering! After about 20 minutes of being there a guy got up and talked to us and said the plane was landing. They opened the doors and we saw the h
uge plane! I almost started c
rying when I saw it, but I held back. After about 10 minutes we finally spotted Nils walking in the rain towards the hangar. Jacee and I ran up to him and gave him the biggest hug! Jacee was a little unsure of him, and didn't want him to hold her. We hung around for a little bit talking to friends then Nils got his luggage and we headed home. Once we got home Jacee let Nils hold her, and they played and laughed! It was adorable! It's been a couple days now since he has been home, and it has been wonderful! I am so proud of him, and he is my hero! 
So glad to have him home safe with us! We love you Nils!!!

Playground Pictures
I took Jacee to the playground down the street from out house yesterday. The lighting was perfect, and I got some really good pictures of her! She had a lot of fun playing and going down the slides.

Halloween PJs!
My mom sent Katy, Jacee and I a Halloween package the other day. There were lots of goodies in there! Jacee got a cute pair of jammies, some panties, socks, barrets, gloves, a book and some candy. Katy got a pair of Spongebob boxers, and I got a pair of Charlie Brown pj pants! Thanks Mom!
Black Island Farms harvest Festival and corn Maze
Last night Katy, Jacee, Brittney, Kierra, and Heidi went to a corn maze in Syracuse. It was New Moon themed, and it was awesome! We got there just after sunset and went for a hayride first. The hayride took us out the a huge pumpkin field, and we all got to pick out a pumpkin! After the hayride we ventured over to the corn maze. There were 4 different mazes, and we went through the Team Jacob maze. We wanted to go through the Edward maze, but you had to go over a huge set of stairs, and we had 2 stollers. The maze took us about 2 hours to get through, and it was a lot of fun! I was just glad that Jacee slept the entire time in the maze. We got lost a lot, but it seemed like there was always people around to help us. After the maze we walked around the farm for a little bit. We watched a couple of pig races, and fed a cow too. It was a really fun night!
The maze :)
