where have I been??

I am a horrible blogger.... thats all

It's not a dream!!!

So it was a very exciting day in the Aubuchon household....

WE BOUGHT A HOUSE!!!




It was up for auction in Red Bud....we went and looked at it twice and decided that we want to try for it! I was totally ok until the bidding started!...Talk about heart pounding!!!

It was us and another guy bidding for the house...That was it...which kinda of surprised me....but it worked out well!!!

It was alittle bit of emotional roller coaster....I was ok until the daughter of the lady that owns the house came running up to us balling that she was so happy that we got it....and then the tears came...but happy tears of coarse! I was crying and so was Eli....it was just awesome!

We close in a month....which puts us about a week before Christmas...so not sure what we are gonna do but thinking we may wait till the new year...new house, new start!!!!

I don't think it has all sunk in but I am VERY EXCITED for our family!!!

FINALLY FRIDAY!!!

Well ladies it's gonna be a great day!!!!..

I confess that I am getting off around 11:30ish and going on the 1st annual PBBE (Podunk Backroad Birthday Extravaganza). It's one of my best friends birthday and she asked to go to the craziest podunk places we could find!...so she put Lynne and I in charge and I promise we will not disappoint...pictures to come next week!!!!

I confess that I woke up with Eli this morning and we talked abit and it has me in the best mood...I love that man so much....even though I know we both drive each other crazy!

I confess that my daughter has quite the fashion sense...


She is in love with these boots....whatever works! (don't mind the mess...it seems to never go away!)

I confess that Loreli is growing up so fast right before my eyes


After I got her dressed I was like OMG she is getting so big!

I confess that Loreli has a new obsession and its so stinkin' cute!


She will wear mine and Eli's...the things kids do!!!

I think that is for today...not much but I have to get back to work since I am taking a half days! I hope everyone has a great weekend!

It was a Gnome kinda of Halloween

It was a perfect night for Trick or Treating and Loreli was loving it and her costume....I was alittle nervous how she would do but she surprised us all...it was GREAT....it was just an AWESOME night and one that will go down in the books for sure!!!!





















(I was gonna write under all of them...but I can't figure out how since blogger has changed...ugh!!!)

It was a crazy weekend!

Well on Friday we just stayed in ordered some pizza and watched the cards win....it was a great night!!! I also got my camera and played with it a bit...but Eli played more with it...lol!!!

Saturday everyone was up bright and early...Eli had to work and so did I, I took Loreli with me. After work we took Grandma Tina out for birthday at Dicarlo's then headed back to her house for alittle visit! Saturday afternoon I was in a digital scavenger hunt with the Voss Family.....let just say that is the most fun I have had in a long time!!!! I would show you pictures but I don't have my SD card (Tara has it so she could make this ) So check it out! We were the WINNERS and we made it known...LOL!!!!

Sunday we got up and went to the Tequila's brunch and came back home so Loreli could take and nap and be all ready for the Cardinals Celebration...Eli was able to get tickets! We asked Tina, Eli's mom and his sister Sarah. It was so neat to see that many people and just everything! Loreli LOVED it...she loved the people, the noise...EVERYTHING!!!!!

Here are some pictures from the Day!











Some of the pictures are from my camera...I have alot to learn still....but I will get there!...Love it so far!!!
