We went to KS for two weeks at the end of October and had a great time! It went by really fast though. We enjoyed visiting family and friends. Angel made a new friend, "Pu Pu" (my mom's dog named Pugsy, Angel could only say Pu Pu). They became best friends very quick and enjoyed playing with each other and sharing their toys.Angel's first Halloween was spent in KS as well. We went trick-or-treating with my brother's family. Angel was a rainbow baby, and an adorable one!
The kids all had a great time, as did the adults.
My brother showed off his talent in carving an awesome pumpkin...should have entered it in a contest! I was sure impressed! Not sure how many hours were spent on this masterpiece.
We went to Mission Lake to take pictures of Granny & Papa with all the grandkids. This is the first time we have taken pictures of them all with their Granny & Papa. For some reason when we did our family pictures, we forgot to take one. It was cool to have a chance to take the pictures and to do it outside. We got pictures of the 4 generations of women, while visiting my grandma and grandpa. I will treasure these moments forever, as will Angel
. It was hard saying goodbye at the end of the two weeks. Angel and Granny really had a hard time saying good bye; they were touching hands through the glass at the airport.

Since we've been back, Jon has had last minute surgery to remove his gallbladder. He's been working two jobs as well. I'm still staying home with Angel and working on my master's degree. Jon is planning to start working on his degree in January as well. As you can see we are keeping busy!
Angel turned 9 months old today! WOW...she is really growing up fast! We are excited about her first Christmas...it should be interesting! Here are a few more pictures of her that we have taken since we've been home from KS. She is the spitting image of her Dada, she even has the laptop to prove it!
