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!
