Update... a few months worth... oops...

Once again I have failed to blog for awhile... darn it! Maybe one day I will actually keep up with things! A lot has happened since the last post...
Lets see here...
August involved lots of fishin and hangin out on the water! Ben bought a boat so that was lots of fun! One of the fishing trips involved us getting caught in a storm on the beach... not so fun!






Oh and we went to an amusement park in Charolette with some friends! I rode some rides, but being the chicken that I am, only rode one roller coaster.






In September the adventures continued! We went to Asheville and saw several beautiful waterfalls! It was a lot of work getting to see some of them! Hiking wore us out!



We had some get togethers and went fishing some more (happens a lot around here!).



I got to come home at the end of September for my cousins wedding! I had a lot of fun the first week I was home. Got to see lots of people, go shopping, go dancin, visit my old job, and more!



I even got to go to a Cardinals game with my dad and my uncle Doug! We won and a lot of fun together! My family got together to eat at Golden Corral and it was great to see and talk to everyone. Unfortunately my week ended horribly. My beloved uncle Doug had an aortic rupture and passed away suddenly on Friday, October 5, 2012 at the age of 59. I miss him terribly and my family is forever changed. That was 4 weeks ago today. :'( I am just so thankful for the time we had with him and for being able to spend time with him before he died. God was preparing us and we didn't even know it. I love you Doug and will always remember you.



 
Since getting back to NC things have been sorta normal. We are both working and spending time together when we can. Nic is supposed to go to Japan in Janurary, but we really don't know any details yet. Halloween was alright. We only had 2 trick or treaters.. lame! But we had a party the week before and that was fun! I dressed up and a couple friends came over and one of them scared us half to death!






Thats all for now! Woohoo!

Oh but we are getting ready for the Marine Corps Ball on Nov. 16! And we are coming home for Christmas!
