Back at it

So we're both back at work after a very busy week last week. It sure was nice to be home, I just never imagined it would be under those circumstances. It was a rough week, but great to spend some quality time with family remembering some great things about Grandpa Holwerda. Brad was able to see his Great Grandma Rozema for the last time on Tuesday afternoon. For those of you who don't know, she passed away on Sunday, Oct. 26 while we were on our way home to Iowa. It was a long week for both of our families, but at least we all have peace that our loved ones are dancing in Heaven with Jesus. I like to think of my grandpa chatting and taking afternoon walks with my cousin Matt and my brother David. Lucky guys!
We have a much slower week this week with a couple of football games (Brad) and lots of LAUNDRY! We will probably spend a quiet halloween evening with some friends for dinner and a movie or something. Saturday will be a nice work day to get some much needed cleaning and picking up around the house done.
Well I suppose work is calling... Have a good week!

Date Night!

So last night Brad and I went out for a much needed date night. Instead of just going out for dinner and a movie (like usual) we went out to "Bloomsbury Farms." We went with the plan to go in the corn maze. Well we found out when we got there that the only corn open at night is the HAUNTED corn maze. YIKES!!! Well I didn't chicken out. We did it, and I didn't pee my pants! Afterward we walked around and saw some of the other things that they have on the farm. Here are some pictures:





And then we picked out some pumpkins. We had a great time, and it was fun to do something different. I'm off to the apple orchard with the girls. Have a good day!

Michigan Game

Well the weather was perfect for the Michigan game on Saturday. However the game was a little bit more lopsided than I had hoped it would be.

There was quite a sea of people in the street walking to the game with us


The Marching Band and Alumni Marching Band played at half time. It was homecoming weekend.


Me and Loren in our seats in the Student Section at the game

109,750 people at the game!

Our new bedroom!!

So finally, the long awaited bedroom pictures. So far it still feels kind of like a hotel room to me. I love it, and turns out Brad is quite fond of it as well.So I am thoroughly enjoying my first Monday off! I am getting a lot done around here and getting some relaxing in as well.
That is all I have for today. Have a good day everyone!

Thursday

Today is the day. The day that Brad ditches me to go up to Michigan. I'm okay with it...I think. I'm sure I'll be fine, I just really don't like coming home to a dark house at night all alone. I've also been really homesick lately but I just have to keep reminding myself only a couple more weeks and my parents will be here. They seem to always make everything ok. And then the next weekend we go to sunny Florida!
The next couple months will FLY by, I'm sure of it. We have quite a few busy weekends in the next two months with visitors and trips planned.
I had a regular OB check yesterday and the doc. says everything looks great! The baby's heartrate was 145. I've gained 10 pounds to date. (The only time in my whole life where I will update you on my weight gain) I am 25 weeks this week. I think this means officially in my third trimester!? I can't believe it!! I don't mind this whole pregnancy thing.
Well I should probably get back to work now, maybe an update later this weekend. Have a lovely day!
