If you build it, they will come....

Yeah, I watched Field of Dreams today! I love that movie!
My sister Holly is just about all moved in to her new house! I'm so happy for her! It's so fun to unpack and decorate and have a place to call her own. Of course it is a lot of responsibility, but I got her a cool pink tool set so she can fix anything! :)
Here she is attempting her famous cartwheel in her basement the day she got her keys! (This is all the farther she gets off the ground)
Here is Holly, Presley and me in Holly's house. Presley thinks it's a pretty cute house and can't wait to spend the night there with her Aunt Holly!
You gotta love those 3 day weekends! Friday night we went to Prairie Meadows to watch the horse races! I forgot my camera (bad mom). We had fun! It wasn't too busy but it did get pretty chilly out so we didn't stay too late. We won $9.20, we still ended up behind but it was nice to win a little somethin!
Saturday morning was the first Iowa football game of the year. We went over to our friend Damian's house to watch the game. Presley was tired but she managed to be pretty good for most of the game. We all had our Iowa shirts on, even though I was cheering for UNI. It was a nail-biter but the Hawks ended up winning!
Sunday we spent most of the day getting ready for our friends to come over for a BBQ. The weather was perfect so we were able to keep everyone outside! The food was great, the beer was good and it was wonderful to see all of our friends! It's hard to see your friends as often as you want once you have a baby, but we ended up having about 25 people over!
Here is a picture of mom-to-be Cindy and baby Ava S. (so sweet and cuddly! We don't remember Presley being this like!)
I don't want to jinx anything but Presley has slept thru the night for the last 5 nights, right now 5 nights is the longest streak we've got out of her. Are we lucky enough to get 6 nights?? Keep your fingers crossed!
Hope you all had a good Labor Day!
