The kids were very excited about watching a "digger" dig a hole in the ground. Mitchell loved playing around and on the dirt.
Caleb was excited to throw rocks into the hole. He didn't get to, but he tried.
We had to hold him back a few times from jumping in! Actually they were just posing, but sometimes it's hard to sit still when you are two.
Next, we had our foundation poured! Moving right a long!
Mitchell is standing in the front of the house by one of the window wells. They loved seeing and playing in the dirt.
Here is a shot in the other direction with me and the boys.
We got a chance to go to Thanksgiving point with Dave and Darci's family. We had a couple of silly pictures and had a lot of fun!
So did Mitchell.
We had races with some fast cars!
It's amazing as the boys get older how much they like each other. This used to be a rarity, but it's been much more consistant.
I hope you didn't mind the hodgepodge of pictures and brief descriptions. We found our lost camera and had to combine some pictures from my phone and our camera to make a post for us. It's turning into a fun experience for us and the kids watching things happen. I hope the weather will stay mild until we can get the exterior on. Hopefully we'll start seeing wood next week!
We were happy to have grandma and grandpa home for a few days before they went off to Boston, but the kids are super excited to have grandma and grandpa back home for halloween. Mitchell and Caleb have their costumes and are just waiting for them to show them off.
Caleb is down by one of the footings of our new house. This is the corner of the garage.
Mitchell is standing in the front of the house by one of the window wells. They loved seeing and playing in the dirt.
Here is a shot of of the footprint. The left side is the garage. The room in the front of the picture will be our cold storage, or as my dad said, "our gun room". It should have enough room to put some stuff in it.

Caleb got to drive the school bus.
We got to cheer on our favorite pig at the pig race.
Caleb loved the corn pit.

They really enjoy being "rule breakers" in timeout.
Becca, Cary and the kids went and picked out colors of everything for our house. To keep entertained, the kids spun around on the chair.
