So much has happened in the Foreman home since our last update. First, Stephen had the great opportunity to go to his cousin Rachel's wedding at the end of September. He along with his cousin Andrew worked it out that they would surprise Rachel and I think they did just that. it was quite the whirlwind trip though. Stephen left on a Thursday night and returned Monday morning and went directly to work after taking a shower. He had a great time though, seeing his cousin, aunts & uncles, grandparents, brothers and of course parents.
I had the opportunity to also travel down to Nebraska and see my family as well mid October. I was going to a Love & Logic conference in Denver so I left a couple days early. My parents picked me up in Denver and we drove through a cold snowy Nebraska. It was hard to believe it was early October and so cold, but it was wonderful. I got to see my niece, nephew and sister which was a huge blessing. Jill outfitted me with some maternity clothes and I got to sort through some of her boy clothes. I was amazed at what a nice little young lady my niece is becoming and Liam is quite the little man. The conference in Denver was great, but the Husker game was terrible the Saturday before I left.
Anyway, we're both back in Kodiak and are finishing a wonderful, relaxing weekend. We got caught up on sleep, work and just spending time together! By the way, this weeks Husker game was miserable as well. Oh, we also found out this month that we're having a boy (of course going through the boy clothes with Jill). Anyway, we're so excited. The baby has been moving a lot this month and I'm actually starting to really show. I had a lady in Walmart ask me when I was due the other day, first time I've ever been asked that question. I'll start my sixth month on Tuesday. Wow, how time flies.
So the pictures were from a nice hike we took this weekend. Does anyone know what the third picture is?
Throughout the month of December Stephen and I have enjoyed some beautiful weather. One of our favorite things to do is load up in the jeep and head out to a trail or mountain. Watching the dogs chase rabbits and birds never seems to get old.
We had some beautiful weather over our break and some really bad weather. We enjoyed going ice skating with Paul out on Mission Lake on the Sunday that he wasn't suppose to be in Kodiak. But because of the crazy Kodiak weather he got stuck for an extra day. It was a great time having the dogs pull us around. So wonderful! 
Stephen and Paul went out with a friend of ours to trap some beavers. The weather was pretty bad, but they had a great time.
We celebrated Stephen's birthday on Saturday. Paul got Stephen a great present, and I think the picture describes it great. 
I also made Stephen his annual German Chocolate Cake. It was so much easier to make with two good knees (last year I was hobbling around.)
This was a hike that we went on after the Husker game on Friday. Beautiful weather!
Well Thanksgiving was a full day. I made the turkey for the Mission Thanksgiving get together along with the stuffing and gravy. I am so thankful for all those times in the kitchen with my mom. Oh, and of course learning how to make my Grandma Neta's incredible gravy. After the Mission's Thanksgiving we went to the Davidson's house for another great celebration. Stephen's brother Paul was visiting and it was wonderful having some family close by. Paul got along very well with our dogs. Roscoe loved to sit and have Paul just pet him.
Well last weekend we had a great time going for a great hike in the snow (except that my snow pants really don't fit anymore). Anyway, when we were coming back into town we decided to run by Walmart to grab a few things. Well in the parking lot there was a pickup with a bear, yes a bear. The guy had just shot it in the morning. Stephen was really taken by it and had to take a few pictures. So enjoy.
Well we have had a busy fall, but it has been great too. The first few pictures are of the harvest festival at one of Stephen's elementary school. He was the sheriff and it was so fun watching the kids go crazy, throwing friends and teachers in. Gus did great as well. I am always amazed that he is a husky and so well behaved.
