                                        Sorry it's been so long hope you are caught up!

OUTSIDE??? What is that and why is it so much fun?

OK... FIRST, I am so sorry it has taken so long for me to blog, we have been trying to get packed to move, and close on the house, and keep up with Gunner :) We finally got to go play outside for the first time last weekend, we had a BLAST, and could not believe how tired we all were after being outside all day! Justin got most of the outside stuff packed up,and ready to move, and Gunner and I practiced walking, played in the dirt and cheered on daddy...

OK OK OK Where am I and WHY does the wind feel so good through my mohawk?

Mom.. didn't you fix your camera yet I look all fuzzy...

Cruzing, he decided to finally learn to crawl..... after learning to walk

Daddy's toy ... and Gunny's toy

Getting dirty... and snacking on gravel

I like to think that Bo is protecting Gunner

Dig in Mommy!

We had a great weekend, and it was simply beautiful outside! we can't wait for summer!

pictures of the house to come soon!

Busy weekend!

We had SUCH a great weekend! Friday night we laid low, Saturday morning we met Grandpa Ron and Grandma Vicki out for breakfast, and Mr. Gunner got to go spend some time over there with them! I was talking to Justin and it's so funny how  he is only 8 months old, but when we picked him up, I could see in his face that he had a really good time! While he was enjoying is time with grandma and grandpa, Justin and I started the horrible process of packing up the house, man, we may need a dumpster! haha we just have so much stuff! After grandpa's,  we went to a birthday party for our friends Keri and Travis's daughter  Brooke who turned 9! It was at grandslam and it was SO much fun as usual!

Watching bumper cars with dad! He was so bug eyed, there were so many little kiddos running around

Alittle help from mommy on the bouncy!

Trav is so funny, Brooke just walked up to him and said, "I'm going to put cake in your face" and he said..."ok" so this is what happend! ha!

Ya know you let his eyes wander for one minute and he is already picking up a shorty, this is Jayda, she is also 8 months old born only a week after Gunner, she was too cute, giving him all sorts of kisses, Gunner still played it cool, maybe he'll call her.. maybe not.. Hahaha!

So the Next day, G-man went to spend the night at nana's(he is obviously excited), we had a much needed date! I had gotten Justin Gopher/Hawkeye wrestling tickets for Christmas, and I had never been to a dual before, I did not know ANYTHING about wrestling! We hit up BWW right by Williams Arena before the dual ofcourse, (bonless spicy garlic...is there anything else?) I learnt SO much about wrestling! I even found myself jumping out of my chair in excitment! It was so great, and now I can finally see myself as a wrestling mom (if thats what Gunner wants to do!) I encourge you if you have never seen a dual, you should check it out! It was way different then I thought.

This is Jay Robinson, he coached Justin briefly at the U and was honored that day for 25 years of excellence! pretty cool!

Sick Boy

My baby was so sick last week! I think it was scarier for myself and Justin then for him! He was his same old happy self, just really cuddly, and sleepy. Poor guy, it started on Tuesday, couldn't keep anything in either end, and I saw him throw up for the first time, it was so scary and the look on his face... he was so confused he had no idea what had happened! Sunday he finally started to feel better and yesterday was the first full normal day he had in a week! WOW, that little bugger we are so glad to have our Gunny back!

Basketball and Bartending

 We Surprised our cousin Tae at his basketball  game the other weekend! We were SO, impressed! You should have  seen his defense! I am a proud auntie! We also got to see Madi ofcourse, cousin Greta and Nana!  Tae had quite the crowd!

 I'm open I'm open!

 you little sneaks! "Gunner, try this, everyone is doing it"

 "Well if everyone is doing it........... oh my god, this is amazing"

 Later that night we met some friends at Broadway for some pizza........

 and beer....

"it's no big deal guys, but, I totally got to work the bar"

We had an awesome weekend! Thanks everyone!

Vikings!

 A little chilli

The gang

 Purple people eaters!

OK so the Vikings season was a bust, but one of our hilites is being able to go to the outdoor game against the Bears. We got there at like 3 or 3:30ish, the boys droped Mel and I off to wait in line, they went and parked, we got a great spot in line ! It was cold but we soon got the hang of stuffing handwarmers everywhere! It was such a blast , we were all like little kids even though the game was a COMPLETE disaster!We also made the jumbotron, I was watching it and realized that the girl on the screen was wearing the same hat as me and the girl next to her kinda looked like my sister!  it lasted a minute or so, it was so much fun!  Thank you Mel and Spanky for making it and awesoem season dispite the poor display for football!!! OH! AND THANK YOU NANA AND GRANDMA AND GRANDPA SCHUMACHER FOR TAKING CARE OF HE KIDS DURING THE GAMES! I know they loved it!
