Homestead and Halloween

Martin's work paid for the tech's to go on a retreat up at the Homestead in Midway. It was amazing. The colors were beautiful.


Here was the view from our private balcony.

Seth and BriAnn hosted a Halloween party this week. It was so much fun. They were giving away a prize for best dressed so I figured we'd have to actually dress up. I was thinking a cowboy would be good for Martin, and I would be a cowgirl or indian or something. When I mentioned it to Martin I said "So I'm thinking you can go as a cowboy and I could be a..." He interrupted me and said "A cow?" I thought it was SO funny. So that's what we went as a cowboy and his cow.

We bought Martin's costume and I looked everywhere for a cow costume but couldn't find anything. So I made my costume. I just bought white sweats and sewed black felt spots on them. I think it turned out pretty well.

In the pictures you can kind of see my baby bump. Every day it looks more like a baby bump and less like my fat belly. I had another doctors appointment on the 26th. Everything is going great. Sara came with me and we got to listen to the baby's heartbeat. I love hearing that heartbeat! The doctor said we could have the gender ultrasound sooner than 20 weeks. So 10 days from today is the day!!! I am SO excited.

So jealous you guys got to actually stay at the Homestead. It looks amazing there and I've heard such great things about it.

Your costume was so cute! Wish I was crafty like you to be able to make a costume, or anything for that matter. Thank you guys for coming. It was fun having everyone there for the party.

So excited to find out what your baby is! Only a few more weeks...

I've never been to the homestead! Looks fun and nice. Maybe we should've gone there instead of Sun Valley, lol. PS I loved your costumes too!!! I'm never crafty or smart to come up with things. I just have to buy at the store.
