India --- here comes Dathan....

So Dathan's work decided it might be a fun experience for him to go to India for 3 weeks. We took him to the airport Friday night to catch his flight at 10 pm. He had a long long trip ahead of him. His first flight was 6 hours long and he landed in the UK. Then he jumped on a flight for another 10 hours to get to Mumbai, India. When the flight landed they put him in a Taxi and went on a 4 hour drive just to get to his hotel. Talk about a long trip. He finally sent me a message Saturday night around 8:30 pm our time saying that he had arrived safe and sound. 22 hours later and he is hanging out trying to get used to the time difference. They are 9 and a half hours ahead of us so when he got there it was about 5:30 am on Sunday morning. With him traveling out there we aren't able to talk on our phones and text because it costs so much so we jumped on the bandwagon and downloaded skype on our computers. Now we are looking forward to skyping with everyone when we get a chance. On a side note, my mom decided to surprise me and bought a ticket to fly out here and hang with us for a week while Dathan is gone. She'll be here Wednesday and I am sooo sooo excited to see her. Well that's all for now, thought I would let everyone know what's going on..

It's been a long time...

So I know it has been a long time since I have posted anything on here. I am kind of new at this so it might take some getting used to. So this post is going to be a lot of stuff all in one.

First off we officially bought and moved into our new hous
e in May.

My sister Jenny came out to visit at the end of May and it was soo much fun. Then on June 3rd our sweet little Kamryn Grace Allen was born weighing in at 7 lbs 9 oz and she is just adorable, we just love her to death. Jen was here when I had Kamryn so she got to see her for a little bit, thanks for coming Jen it was so much fun.
We decided to bless Kamryn on the 4th of July so our parents flew out and hung out with us for the blessing and we loved every minute of their visit.

We then decided to spend the 24th of July with Amanda and Craig so we drove up to their house and stayed with them for the weekend and it was a blast. We ended up going to a carnival and the kids had so much fun. We just love our visits with them. Haylie and Jaycee are the best of friends and are just soo cute together and Brayden just loves Craig.


Since then we have tried to see a couple of the sights so maybe next time when family comes and they ask us what is fun to do around here we can tell them. One weekend we drove down to Cape Cod and spent the afternoon in a little town called Woods Hole. It was just one of those little towns that you could walk through the shops and enjoy the nice coastal air. It was nice to actually have some family time. We then went to a place called the Lobster Pot for dinner and ate some seafood.
Then just last weekend we decided to spend time with Amanda and Craig again and we met up at York Beach up in Maine. Just right on the border of Maine and New Hampshire. The weather was perfect and Brayden had a blast playing in the waves. Haylie loved playing in the sand and trying to build sand castles. After the beach we went to a fun little Mexican restaurant called "Loco Coco's Tacos" and I had the best taco salad ever. After that we said goodbye to Amanda and Craig and drove home. We had sooo much fun, thanks guys for spending the day hanging out with us.


On another note Brayden is just loving school and can't wait to go every morning. He is in 2nd grade at Pelham Elementary School here in Pelham, New Hampshire. He is doing awesome and making friends.
While he is at school I am having a blast spending some alone time with my cute girls. I promise I will start adding posts more often so you won't have to hear me ramble on for so long.
