Happy Thanksgiving and more!

So much to be thankful for this year! We enjoyed the extended weekend up in Roseau for Thanksgiving.  It was the last time we will be up north without a baby!  : )  Jeff was good to stop so I could get out and walk a little bit (Gus didn't mind getting out for a walk, either).  We were able to spend time with our amazing families and ate lots of wonderful food, of course!

Kelly, Amy and Deveny were so sweet to give me a mini-shower!  They spoiled me (and Baby) with some "must-haves" before Baby comes! What wonderful ladies!

Oh WOW... a four-wheeler!  Gavin loved the new 4-wheeler at Grandpa and Grandma's!  He will have fun on that this summer!

Trying to figure out how to start this thing!  Gavin saw Grandpa doing something on the side to get it started... good thing he didn't figure it out... or he would have taken off! : )

We are so excited to see our basement come together.  We ordered some amazing furntiture a couple of weekends ago... it should be here before Christmas.  The built-ins and the fireplace surround have been built with love in my dad's shop.  Dad and Mom will be bringing down the fireplace surround when they come in December.  We already have the rest of the built-ins downstairs ready to be installed!  It will be fun to spend time down there... can't wait!

Check out this Baby BUMP! 

I am at 34 1/2 weeks now... that is 5 1/2 weeks to go until Baby is due.  Will he or she be early?  Will he or she be late?  Who knows! 

I plan to have my last day of work be Dec. 22.  That means I only have 16 days left of school.  That is going to go by so fast. 

It has been a busy fall!

 We have been really busy this fall doing things with our house!  Jeff got all the trim (for the floors and doors) stained and varnished when I was gone scrapbooking. 

 My dad and mom came here on Thursday (10/27) and stayed until Tuesday (11/1).  It was nice to come home to a homecooked meal after work on Friday and Monday since Mom would have dinner ready for us!  Dad worked on projects while Jeff was at work and then Jeff and Dad worked hard when Jeff wasn't at work.  They got all the floor boards up and put up all the trim around the doors and closets.  Dad brought down the base for the fire place and the base cabinets for our built in bookshelves!

 While we were at work Dad painted the Baby's room for us... the paint was called Lemon Trees.

 We decided that the Lemon Trees color we had originally picked out was way too bright.  So we bought Warm Sunlight to soften it up!  Jeff re-painted the room on Saturday morning... now it is a much better color for Baby.

 On Saturday night we went to the Wild game!  It was a fun game!  They played against St. Louis.  We saw TJ Oshie play (he is from Warroad) so that was neat. 

 The Wild won (2-1).

 The penalty boxes were really full at one point!  Do you see all those guys in the box for St. Louis and Minnesota?

After church on Sunday, Jeff and I put the crib up in the baby's room.  We hung the valance over the window too... but decided not to hang up the artwork until we get the rest of the furniture in the room.  The room is coming along!

  Baby is due 2 months from tomorrow! 

Can you believe it! : )
