October

The 5 things that made our month awesome:
1. Brian had his first full weekend off since starting residency in June, and it happened twice this month! I felt a little spoiled, but can't wait for it to happen on a more consistent basis.
2. A visit from family--Brian's brothers family came to visit, we love it and Ethan cried and cried when they left.

3. A visit from the Jacksons--one of our best friends from med school came for a visit from Indianapolis and we packed the week with fun--the zoo, John Deere Tractor Pavilion, a Halloween party, pumpkin patch, and a Hawkeye football game for Jen and Jared.

 
4. A visit from the VanTassells-- our other best friends from med school made a trip down from South Dakota.  Mark and Nicole worked hard most the weekend replacing the roof on their rental house, but the rest of us got to have fun hanging out, and their kids were wonderful!  We can't wait for them to move back this summer.

 5.  HALLOWEEN!  On all those spooky nights I felt so safe because I had Batman and Robin to protect me.  They ran around the house constantly saving the world from bad guys.
