Its been to long...

So much has happened and life has been so crazy busy, it was my goal to write here once a week or at the very least every two weeks...yet here we are like two months later :-( so I'll start with August. The beginning of August was the very first Damn Dang Hurst Family Reunion. We had so much fun getting together and trying to camp... and without fail got rained out so we ended up pitching tents all around my grandparents yard. It was tent city and we all spread out all over the house and yard. Just visiting and eating and we went shooting my great great grandfather gun that he brought in from Mexico, that my uncle Tracy just had restored. Seeing my cousin Lauri's kids shoot a gun for the very first time was so much fun to watch. Sadly we were missing some cousins and siblings but hopefully next year everyone can make it out.

After the reunion my sister Devin came out to visit for about a week. We didn't really go and do anything fun or to exciting, but it was fun to have time with her. Since Shannon moved to Utah i have felt disconnected from my sisters, they all live in Utah now and are able to see each other couple times a month or have special sister weekend parties or movies or whatnot without me :-( almost makes me want to move to Utah, but not bad enough to actually do it lol.
On August 20Th (Devin's Birthday) my dog Bonnie went into labor, she had a hard labor and with thanks to the vet clinic (which i will never go to them ever again) she was able to deliver her 7 puppies but only two survived. But they are two beautiful little girls who have stolen my heart and as much as i would love to be able to keep them they will be going to their new home in about two weeks. Thankfully it is only a couple blocks away and their new owners are very nice and will love them and care for them very well.

September was not quite so eventful, just a juggle of working, ward realignment, caring for puppies, morning sickness(which hopefully will be going away soon) and trying to keep Noah entertained. We are looking forward to Halloween this month, and being able to find out if we should expect a little boy or girl in our home come March! I can't believe that i am 15 weeks now, it really only seems like a couple weeks ago i found out that i was pregnant. Noah is already acting like a big brother. I ask him if he want to give baby a kiss, he usually runs up to my belly, kisses it then likes to give baby a couple of zerberts right after. Noah is getting so big and growing up to fast. I can't believe that he will be two in a couple of short months!
