We celebrated Taylor's birthday with a great party with both of our families....that was the last of our quiet weeks and weekends!!
The following week, I was offered a full-time job, which I accepted at Gopher News Company. After 7 great years at SNG Construction, it was time to move on, simply because I needed full-time work! It was a very hard departure; which just showed how much I loved it there! I am now settling into my new position at Gopher as the Personnel Director/HR. It is quite challenging but I am working through it and love every minute of it.

My hours are different from the early morning rise I have been doing for the past 7 years! We are still up early but not quite as rushed as we used to be and best of all, I get to spend time with Taylor in the morning! She is getting used to the laid back mornings as well....she enjoys milk, muffins, cartoons, and cuddling with both mom and dad on the couch before we need to head out the door for daycare! I do think I can get used to working this shift.
Taylor is growing and changing every day as well. She is becoming her own little lady. She loves to wear her dress up shoes around and make noise on the floor, carry a purse, have beads, play with her babies and dollies, still loves to do puzzles and lots of other things.
We were able to go up to the cabin that Spanier's had rented for a week in August. Altho, Eric or I couldn't take any time off of work, we managed to get there both weekends, which also happened to be the best weather days also. I will post pictures later this weekend (hopefully)
Eric and I were able to enjoy a weekend at the lake with a group of friends as well. At the end of August we had a great time with Thieschafers, Althaus', Frielers, Meyers, and Eveslages at the T's cabin on birch lake. No kids - need I say more!! This was actually the first year we had decent weather.
Last weekend, Eric and I went to see Johnny Cash in Greenwald, MN!! Turned out to be a great show and a very fun night!! The next day, my parents, Taylor and myself went to the Nelson farm by Litchfield for their harvest fest or so. Taylor got to pet and hold a baby chick, see all kinds of farm animals like, goats, chickens, bunnies, turkeys, pigs, horses, ponies, and more. She also ran through corn mazes, and hay tunnels, and crawled through other tunnels. She was having lots of fun, as was mom and dad watching her.
This weekend we have Raegan's FIRST Birthday party already! WOW that went fast. Happy Birthday Raegan - se eyou on Saturday.
Sunday, Taylor and I, Rick and Drew are going to the Twin's game - shoudl be interesting!
My next post will be ALL pictures....check back!
