October News

This has been a crazy month for the Chessers. On October 11th the kids were out of school so the playgroup went to the zoo. That was our first time to go in awhile because it has been so hot. Unfortunately Spencer, Trent and Mrs. Kerri couldn't go with us. We had a good time and Alyssa was excited about being back at the zoo. Not as excited as she was about Homecoming at Alabama. We took her to her first football game last year and she loved it. When football season rolled around her first question was "What game am I going to?" Needless to say Jon and I had to get tickets and fast. We had a lot of fun. On Monday her school had their annual Pumpkin Patch field trip. We went to Camp Coleman in Trussville and the kids got to go on a nature walk, play on the playground, see and learn about different animals, go on a hayride, roast marsh mellows and pick a pumpkin from the pumpkin patch. We had a good time. Be sure to take a look at the pictures below and the ultrasound picture of the baby. Til next time....

Boy Makes 4 for Chessers

We went on Monday to find out what we are having and it is a BOY! I got some great news too! I am actually 19 weeks instead of 18. That was by far the fastest week of my pregnancy! Things are looking good and everyone is doing fine. We are awaiting Jon's surgery tomorrow on his shoulder. I will be sure to post and update on him as well as pics. Til next time.....

It's A Boy!

Community Helpers

Alyssa had to dress up as a community helper at school today. She chose to wear her doctor outfit and take her stethoscope. This morning she told me she was going to be a doctor like Aunt Court! For those of you who don't know, my brother married a doctor and her name is Courtney. They also had a fire fighter come visit their school. She came home telling Jon and I that we need to get a fire safety plan and a meeting place outside for after the fire. Guess we better get started on that! Til next time.....

Catching Up

So I have been a little behind with my blogs and just like my sewing blog, I have finally updated our family blog. I decided to just hit the highlights from this year instead of posting everything. It starts with the Pumpkin Patch Trip last weekend, our latest addition to the Chesser family, our 4th of July trip to Arkansas followed by Alyssa's 4th Birthday and ends with amazing pictures from my brother Chad's wedding in Yosemite National Park this past April. For those of you who may not have known Jon and I are expecting again. The ultrasound picture is from our first visit at 9 weeks. We will find out later this month what we are having and will be sure to share those pics too. Thank you for following our family and we hope you are all doing well. Til next time......
