Almost...

So the big news in our house is that Brylee is almost walking. Technically she has walked. She is taking a good 6 to 8 steps before sitting down. She is content with just crawling. It is exciting to see another "first" but no so exciting to see her one step closer to not being my baby. It won't be long before she is running.

Everything else is good. Jared is staying busy working on the house, contracting outside of work, and finishing up softball. I have only 3 weeks left in my scrapbooking class I am teaching a AC. It has been fun and I have really enjoyed having my night out with adults!

Kansas

Over Labor Day weekend our family traveled to Hays and Plainville, Kansas. This was our first trip to Jared's home state. We unfortunately went to Kansas to attended a funeral. Jared's uncle passed away last week. He has been suffering from ALS for the past 18 months.

While in Kansas we saw Jared's old house were he grew up and his grandparent's old house were his dad grew up. There were beautiful fields of sunflowers so we took advantage of the scenery and took some pictures. Brylee got to meet her great-aunts uncles and her second cousins. She enjoyed playing with the little kids. We were also able to see Jared's grandmother in Great Bend. On our way back to Texas we stopped in Dodge City, toured the museum and took an Old West Photo.
