Another two weeks have almost past and it sure went by fast. I can't believe we are already in October! This is especially good because I thought for sure the last couple of months would drag on for me. Well not much going on in the Ashton world, but I will do my best to catch you all up on our exciting lives.
On the 23rd brought yet another BYu game which was home, so Mike got up and headed down to Provo at about 9 in the morning and got home around 7 or so. While he was gone I did my normal cleaning of the house, which takes longer now that I run out of energy a lot faster and laundry. After I got all of my normal Saturday activities done, I decided to rearrange our bedroom. Mike and I were going to do anyways to make room for the bassinet, but I decided to do it while Mike was gone s a surprise. We moved our bed to go by our bay windows and then moved the dresser to where the bed use to be. Then the bassinet fits perfectly in the corner by the bathroom. We wanted it in an area that wasn't by the door so she wouldn't be woke up by people out in the living room and also we wanted her not by the windows so she didn't get cold by a draft or something. Now that it is all moved, we both like it so much we will probably leave it that way even after the baby moves up to her own room. When we take down the bassinet, we will just get a over stuffed chair or something to go in the corner so we aren't left with a big empty space.
This lat week seemed to be a bit busy. Mike and I both had tests this week, so a lot of the evenings were spent studying for tests. Thursday night BYU played TSU, the team that one the conference last year, at TSU. So since the guys couldn't go to the game, they all made a trip to Logan it watch it at our house. Wagon got into Logan about 2 in the afternoon to spend a little time with his daughter before the game started at 4. Marc I think got there right before the game started. Craig came over about a half hour or so into the game. When I got home from work at 4:30 I just went up to the office to study and do homework while they had their bonding time. But boy can those guys get loud!! I was planning on cooking steaks and potatoes for dinner for them all, but first I didn't have enough steaks and second I was so tired after working all day and knowing I had tons a of homework to do. So needless to say the guys had Papa Johns pizza instead of a home cooked meal, but they didn't seem to mind at all. I am not a BYU fan at all, but I like to see them win because that means I have a happy husband.
Since BYU played during the week, this past weekend actually meant I had Mike the whole weekend. We didn't have any major plans for the weekend, just a couple of around the house jobs we want to get done like hang family pictures up, put a shelf up we have been meaning to do for about a month now, etc. But instead we went and helped Ana and Jonathan lay sod in their backyard. Ok well Mike went and laid sod and I babysat Addison. But I think I got just as much as a work out picking up a 20 pound child and hauling her around all day sure took a lot out of me! Jonathan had a couple of guys form work there helping, so it went pretty fast. First before we went to lay sod I had to go up to the university and take a quick test, then we went to there house. We were there until noon, then we had to go to the hospital to have our Lamaza teacher put our car seat in for us. She is a certified car seat something so she puts it in so it will pass inspection. Then it was back to Ana's for the rest of the afternoon. For being October it sure was pretty warm still, about 80 degrees. Then the guys went to General Conference and Ana and I went grocery shopping, fun huh?
Sunday was a chill day, Mike and I just watched the first session in our PJ's. Then the second session we went to Jami's and had a little luncheon with a group of people, it was a bit busy, but fun. Ok well that is all thats going on with us, I will catch you all up in a week or so!
