Welcome!!

Sooo.. I have been thinking for a long time now about starting a blog. I've followed a couple of blogs because I am that nosy and figured and I am that nosy following other peoples lives then why wouldn't anyone want to follow mine? Anyways, so here we go. Enjoy, be nosy and have fun.

As you might have guessed Jason, Ava and I have been quite busy this month. Well Jason and I have been busy.. Av just kinda tags along in her car seat. As you all know we are getting married at the end of the month. 16 days from now and I couldn't more happy about it. I'm really not that stressed about anything, things seems to just be falling into place as we go. We may not have the fanciest wedding but hell it isn't about that anyways. I'm trying to get a final head count for our reception and are realizing that people just don't seem to care to send their RSVP's back. From now on, I promise to send every RSVP we get in the mail.. BACK! Its fine because I've just hunted everyone that we didn't get one from down and just asked if they were coming. Now for those of you in our wedding party.. Here is the address to the rehearsal dinner.. 49700 Parkside Northville Michigan 48168 Its just a fun little get together so everyone can meet and get to know each other. Its a pizza and beer kinda thing so please don't dress up because we aren't. For my girls that are asking, I don't care what kind of shoes you wear as long as they are black dressy type. Bring a sweater, jacket or whatever you see fit because I have a feeling its going to snow. I think we are going to be getting ready at my house but I'm not quite sure yet. That's still in the works. I do have a hair and make up price, if I didn't tell you please let me know and I will let you know. Guys! Please be fitted by October 11th. That means you Jason and Frank. (typical of Jason right?) :) You are to be ready at 2:30 on the wedding day and ready for pick up at Kathy's house. You will all have transportation to the wedding and reception but please take your car to Joy Manor before the wedding unless you will all be calling cabs which I have warned every cab company in the Metro Detroit area about our wedding. (just kidding)

Over this past weekend we took our first and probably last trip up North for the year! We had a big birthday to celebrate. Jason grandma celebrated her 80th birthday on Sunday! It was also a special day because Ava met her great-grand parents, aunts, uncles and cousins! Us Murphy's ( I know I'm not a Murphy yet, but get over it...it works with the blog!) drove up on Saturday night and rented the cutest cabin! It had 2 bedrooms, a full kitchen and bathroom and a dining area! It was alot of fun and Ava seemed to enjoy it. It of course was sad when we had to leave we both wished we could have stayed another night. It always sucks when we get home from up North. Its bright,loud and smelly when we come home. Up there is full of stars, sounds of nothing and the forever campfire smell! Its great!



Ava is growing like a little weed! The saying is true they grow up to fast! She is doing new things everyday! She is really close to rolling over. I can't leave her alone for a second anymore! She almost fell off the bed yesterday..I turned my back to pick up a laundry basket..turned around..and she was in a totally different position..and half way off the bed before I knew it! She is getting better every day too.. she isn't as crabby and is starting to like her daddy much more! Not that she didn't before.... Her own personality is showing more and more everyday. Its even hard to pick her up anymore because she is so ticklish! She is just like me..ticklish everywhere!! I'll post of video of her as soon as I figure out how to do it.. I'm new to this blogging thing!

Halloween has to be my favorite holiday! I love to decorate for it and I spent 9 months wondering what Ava was going to be for her first Halloween! Jason and I decided that she is going to be a monster! It totally fits her. We found a pink monster costume and she looks cute as a little monster could! Her boyfriend Jack is also a monster.. only blue! I can't wait to get them together for pictures! It really is going to be a monster mash...



Well that's all for now! Check back soon for more updates and pictures!

Love,
J, A and Baby A :)
