What Jon has been up to



Jon just recently became a woodworker in his spare time.  He started with the chopping block/island that he made for our kitchen.


For my birthday this year, he made me a recipe box with a granite top, and 2 drawers...so feel free to help me fill it up!!!


 













Next came the End Table for our living room, with an antler handle that Macie loves!!!

Trick or Treat!!!

I had to post these cute halloween pictures!  I wish I could have been there to see when Grandpa tried giving them potatoes instead of Candy!


My B-Day Weekend @ Home!!


So for my 26th birthday present all I wanted was to be able to fly home to Indiana and spend some time with my family, and this is what I got!  After some flight delays I finally made it to the Ft. Wayne airport where I was welcomed home by my favorite people!  My parents were there as well as Dan & Miss, and the Emma & Ethan. E&E had made me a WELCOME HOME KRISTY! sign, which was adorable!!  

Ethan loved riding around on the baggage claim belt, apparently more than my luggage did, because it didn't show up!!  Anyway it was a great weekend home filled with lots of surprises!! One of them being my Mom surprised me with Reba McEntire & Kelly Clarkson Concert Tickets!!! It was the best concert EVER!!! 
While I was home, Emma and I had a slumber party!!  We played dollhouse, checkers, Battleship, watched movies, we made a fort and g'ma brought us snacks! Not much sleep happened, but it was fun!! 

Emma trying on her new HOT pink clogs - her present for staying the night with me!
Then on the Saturday before I had to leave my mom planned a BBQ and almost the whole Gentis clan showed up!  We had quite the feast and a bonfire.  It was so great to see everyone, especially all the new babies!! I finally got to meet Raleigh.  
Wow, our family is growing!!  I can't wait to go home for Thanksgiving in about 25 days!!!
