Fun Filled Day!

Well I haven't found my adapter to the camera, but we switched to Verizon and got new phones. So luckily the phone takes pretty good pictures, and now I can share some pictures of what we are up to. ENJOY!

Yesterday, September 12, was Topeka's 14th annual duck race! There was 10,515 duck in the race, so my chances of winning a prize was pretty slim! The first duck to cross won a ford mustang, they had awesome prizes. They had free activities for the kids, so we mad a day of it. They also had the annual Huff n Puff, where they let tons of hot air ballons off into the sky, we had a great time!

Beautiful Brilee!

When my mother-in-law came to visit, we did some pretty good shopping! We found the cutest kids store in Lawrence and we found this dress we couldn't pass up!

Royals Game

The first Friday in September we were able to go to a Kansas City Royals MLB game with a bunch of friends from the JRC. We had a great time! The stadium was huge, and they had tons of huge fountains on the backside of the field. It was also dollar night, so drinks, hot dogs, and peanuts were all one dollar. Brilee had a blast with all the other kids, and she loved to dance to all the music. We stayed to watch fireworks, which turned out to be quite a bummer, it was so humid, and the smoke got so thick from the fireworks, we couldn't see the fireworks, and they would've been something, the poor companies that sponsored the fireworks! It was a great night!

UPDATE!

Sorry to all for the delay in an update. I have not come across the adapter to the camera that allows me to download pictures from the camera! So sorry no pictures yet!

We are settling in our new home! I am pretty much out of boxes, yeah! My family helped us move out here, thank goodness. Our caravan of vehicles took us about 16-17 hours (which we did in two days) to get here to Topeka, and then another 5 hours to unload!

We took a day to chill, and then we went up to Nauvoo, which was another 5 hours, but we had a great time, touring, and attending the temple (BEAUTIFUL!)

We spent a day in Kansas City shopping!

And the sad day came, when the family had to leave, the saddest part about it was Brilee bawling as she watched them all drive away in the car! Not fun at all!!

So anyways, Brilee and I are getting ourselves familiar with Topeka. The people are great! The library is fabulous, Brilee could stay there all day!

There is a group out her called the JRC (Jay Reuban Clarke Society) which is a group for LDS law students and their families. Without them I would have gone crazy, I have made some great friends. The Wives get together for playgroup, and girls night, so that has been good!

Where we live it is very walker/runner friendly, and everyone exercises out here, it's great! So I am trying to keep up with the running, but it's not working out that great, I think I rather just go walking! I like to take Brilee out in the mornings, we went up to a nice neighborhood above where we live and they acutally have decent hills! I am actually kind of sore from going up and down them.

Anyways, that is an update about what's happening, and I will work on finding the adapter so I can post some pictures!!
