So there is lots new that has happened and I have not had a computer to fill everyone in! I am embarrassed to admit this but I spilled water on our computer several weeks ago. The computer stopped working and then randomly this morning started working!
The weekend of the 7th-8th, my parents came up and visited. They both took off work on Monday and Tuesday to stay with Bryell so Jeffrey and I could head to the Monday night game in Denver- Broncos-Steelers! It was an absolute blast! Our seats weren't quite as good as they were the last time we went but they were still pretty good. We could see the whole field perfectly. Where we sat, the lady next to us was a season ticket holder. She was less then impressed with me in my steelers gear but was pretty good spirited about it. Everytime I would stand up waving my terrible towel when I sat down she was more then ready to give me the orange pom so I could even out my cheering. :)
The next weekend we took a quick trip back to Lingle to attend Jeffrey’s uncle’s funeral. It was a sad yet happy day. It was so fun to hear of stories of such a wonderful man. I also got to meet some new family. It was nice to see everyone. I wish the occasion was a happier one. You could see how close all of the family really is.
We ordered a new table the start of September. It came but was damaged so we rejected it. There wasn't communication between the shipping company and the shipper so at the start of November I called the furniture company. Too make a very long story short they had to reorder the table and said no way we would get it by Thanksgiving. We were super sad but....Tuesday evening we got a call- the table was ready to be dropped off! They dropped it off BEFORE work! We had our table for Thanksgiving! My parents came up over Thanksgiving. It was very nice to have them here for an extended period of time and to be here for it. My mom and I made soup to can while Jeff and my dad loaded up on watching lots of football. My mom also helped me figure out my sewing machine again! We made a holder for the table leaf!
Over Thanksgiving, we were quite surprised by some very unexpected visitors in the shed. We went out to get some Christmas stuff and when we open the door we hear lots of scurrying around. Mice! Not just one or two but TONS! Some grass seed had leaked out so they had made a nice home in the shed. Ugh. We had to completely clean out the shed. It took us a couple hours but I am happy to say the shed is now mouse free. :)
Bryell has started clapping. Its the cutest thing. She is now rolling over much more and can go from sitting to her belly. She can't quite scoot yet but can roll around from belly to back enough to get where she wants to go. She is much more adventurous now. Its true she has taken a couple tumbles trying to get at things she shouldn’t. Sometimes I think that she will give up because she is scared she will hurt herself again, but she picks herself up and is at it right again. It is so exciting to see Bryell’s progress yet so sad to see how quickly she is growing up.
Now that we have a working computer I will start to update more frequently. I will load pictures on this evening and post them from the last month!

I can't wait to see more picture of your little cutie! Kids are daring- I don't know where the courage comes from but it's good or else they'd never learn anything new! Happy Holidays Beth!
