Beyer Christmas in Avon

Hi all,

Just wanted to put out some information regarding the Christmas Party at my dad's house.  It will be on Sunday, December 23 and dinner is planned to be ready around 1pm with the gift exchange happening after.

I know I am very anxious to see everyone in two weeks in Atlanta!!

Halloween 2012

Here are a few pictures from our super fun Halloween.  Evelyn was a spider princess and Isaac was Dracula.  Once again, my friend made their costumes.

Here's the group.  My friend also made both Minnie Mouse costumes and the Captain America.

Updates

Hey everyone!  We have been so busy down here planning our wedding but it's coming along really well.  And now we only have 3 weeks left until our Thanksgiving half marathon!  Time is really going by fast!  Everyone should have recieved their invitation now, please let me know asap if you have not gotten yours.  The ceremony is at St. Brigid at 2 and the reception is at Roswell Founders Hall at 6:30.  We have also created a registry at Williams-Sonoma.  You can view it online by going to their website and clicking the registry tab.  Once you are on the registry page, go to the find registry section and enter our information.  To view it you will need to know the date (December 15), the state (Georgia), and a first and last name.  For the name you will need to enter Samantha Beyer, not Roy's name.  We do not want you to feel obligated to bring gifts because we have already recieved gifts last year but we hope the registry is helpful if you do want to bring something.  We are so excited for the wedding and getting to see everyone again!  We will be going to Toronto for our honeymoon because Roy and I love the Maple Leafs and we wanted to see them play.  Unfortunately the NHL is having some issues this year and so far they have not started any games, but we will still be able to enjoy the city.  I also posted some pictures that I have taken this semester, as you can see Blue is getting very big!  Roy and I are so proud of the dog she has grown to be but after a lot of thought we have decided to board her during the wedding.  We love her so much, but I'm sure my dress would become the most expensive toy she has ever seen!  The other pictures are some I took in Atlanta in school.  Hope everything is well with everyone else, see you soon!

4 Years Old

 Today is my 4th birthday!  Can you believe my school is closed and Mommy & Daddy don't have to work today because it's my special day?!?  They said I won't be this lucky next year, so I will enjoy our togetherness today.

I started my 2nd year of preschool  2 weeks ago.  I go Mon, Tues, and Thurs from 8a -1p.  It's going very well since I love to learn.  I can write all my numbers and upper case letters and am doing quite well practicing my lower case letters.  I'm learning about the United States, how  the calendar works, how to tell time and how to read (just a little).

I'm a social butterfly!  I love to strike up conversations any where I go.  My favorite pass time is playing with my brother and my neighbors Christian and Sarah.

Since learning I have a wheat/gluten intolerance, I've been eating really well because my tummy no longer hurts.  It's been a challenge, but now we know the culprit and are moving forward.  Unfortunately, it's not something a person can out grow.  But, believe it or not, there are SO many gluten free options these days, I'll never feel like I'm missing out. 

I wish everyone a relaxing holiday.  I'm looking forward to seeing you at my party!

Movin' on up...

Greetings,

On behalf of Angela, I'd like to inform everyone that she and Jeremiah have just gotten new jobs in the Champaign area.  With that said, their house is up for sale and they are renting a place near Champaign.

They currently don't have internet, but expect to next week.  She will post a more detailed update then.

CAN YOU GUESS WHO'S TWO???

Howdy Folks! Yep - today I'm two and am no longer a "baby" in the eyes of my Mommy.  This actually makes her a bit sad.  :(  I'm an incredibly cheerful little man who loves to smile and play.  Big sister, Evelyn and I have a blast together!  We play on the swing set and ride bikes. We read books and color.  I'm really liking trains, cars and dinosaurs these days too.  My favorite thing to do is climb!  It drives Mommy and Daddy nuts, but I enjoy hoisting myself up on the kitchen sink to turn on the faucet and play in the water.  And I move at lightening speed.  They turn around for a minute, and there I go.

 Although I'm as skinny as a rail, my appetite is quite impressive....same as my sleep habits- I'm such an easy kid.  I'm FULL of words, (words that you can actually understand), and chat it up all day long.  I thank Evelyn for my verbal skills.  That girl talks and talks and talks!

I have to be on my best behavior that I'm two since I'm now old enough to be placed on the naughty rug.  I'm going to have to really consider if the action is worth the consequence of time out.  Hhmmm...Decisions...  :)
 I sure hope all of you can come to my birthday party so we can celebrate this big day together!

Belize it!

Dear all:

Sorry it's taken so long to get these photos up, it's been a busy summer!  It was really hard to decide on what photos to put up, it's incredible how much we saw and did in just 10 days.  We went all over Belize, we saw mayan ruins, small towns, beaches and jungles.  It was an amazing trip, looking at these pictures again makes me miss it so much!  I hope I can share more photos with you later!

Tommy's Celebration Visit

Here are few shots from our visit to Georgia.  We had a great time!  Thanks again to Uncle Fred & Aunt Shawn for their hospitality...Congrats to Tommy!  Your hard work paid off.  Have a blast in Washington.  We will be thinking of you.  If anyone has pics of the ceremony, please post them...

Hunter is 2!!

Hunter is 2 years old. Man does time fly faster when you have kids. Hunter is full of energy and is always on the go. He is a great eater when he wants to be. He has a small word vocabulary, but a very big sound vocabulary. Everything has a sound. He can be nice as can be one minute then the next minute he is mean as snot. But I guess that goes along with being 2. He is sleeping about 10-12 hours a night and is still taking 2-3 hour nap.

Hunter had a great birthday party. He had fun playing with the kids.

My job is going good. I am still at the hospital in the NICU and work 3 12 hours nights.

Jeremiah got a new job. He is a sales man for the ambassador company. The company is a christian based company and has been around for I think 35 years. He is selling book for the 1st and 4th graders in small towns. The schools do not pay for the books. He has to go to area business and try and get them to sponsor the books. He made is first sale day 2 on the job and sale #2 day 3. He really enjoyed his 1st week. He told me that this job is a feel good job and seems to really like the job.

Thank you everybody for the really nice gifts. Hunter really enjoys playing with them all. Scott it was really nice to see you as well. Hunter had a blast playing with you too.

Hope to see all of you soon.

The Brandon's

Updates in the Serna/Beyer family

We have had a lot of new changes in our family! The first bit of good news is that I recently passed my first GACE (Georgia Assessments for the Certification of Educators). I took the middle grades science test and passed! I am now qualified to teach science in grades 6-8 in Georgia, once I have a college degree. Our system here is that you need to have a degree in any subject and then pass the GACE in whatever subject you would like to teach. I plan on taking the history one sometime in the summer. Second, Roy got an awesome job at the company I-Technical Services. His position is incoming quality inspector, in which he reviews different technological components before they are sent out to be assembled. He checks to make sure they work properly and writes reports on what needs to be fixed. Lastly, Roy and I have added an addition to our little family with our first dog together. Her name is Blue and she is a 10 week old Aussie/Flat coat mix, and she is a handful! If there is trouble to be had she will find it! She loves to eat everything and is still working on being trained. She starts puppy kindergarten on March 16th and it is a 6 week course. Roy and I are still getting used to the big responsiblity of raising her, but while it is difficult it is very rewarding. We love her very much and we are sure she will get along very well with the puppy that will be arriving in June because she is very sweet. She is 13 pounds now but she's estimated to grow to 60! Enjoy the pictures!

Happy 1/2 Birthday to ME!!!

That's correct...today I am 18 months old! Look out Evelyn- before you know it, I'll be doing circles around you. :)

I'm a very active ball of energy who likes to climb, climb, climb! Mom worries because I'm such a monkey, but I tell her not to since I've already mastered falling gracefully.

As you can see, I have many teeth and am currently drooling like crazy, so more are on their way. I'm an outstanding eater, so I'm not exactly sure why I need more teeth??? To fill in my smile, maybe???

I'm able to sign 5ish words. Could sign more if I were able to sit still to watch the videos. I can say way more words. The trouble is most people can't understand me. Guess I have to keep practicing. I'm really into repeating words. A few of my favorite sayings are "tickle, tickle, tickle", ..."ashes, ashes, we all fall down', "e-i-e-i-o",and "go, go,go".

I love to play with anything that has wheels, and like anything "little people". I also enjoy reading too. Most fun of all is playing absolutely anything with big sis, Evelyn. She and I are the greatest of friends.

I continue to prove I'm an amazing being who has such a sweet spirit and a great love for all around me. Oh, yeah- I'm also super handsome and have an infectious smile.

Hi to All,

Thank you for all the really nice Christmas gifts. Hunter loves them all.

Hunter is growing like a weed and loves to play outside. Hunter also likes tractors and construction trucks. He still looks just like his Dad.

I am doing good. I am working night shift at St. John's Hospital in the N.I.C.U. I was offered a day position, but turned it down. I like working nights.

Jeremiah is doing good as well. He is looking for a new job. We started taking down our screen porch. We are going to build an all season porch.

We hope you all had a nice Christmas and New Year.

Love,

Angela, Jeremiah, and Hunter
