HAPPY HALLOWEEN

And a big HAPPY BIRTHDAY to our sister Becky! Hope you have a great day! We love you!

Introducing. . .

The newest Overmohle! Meet Dylan Michael Overmohle. This future linebacker for the Iowa Hawkeyes tipped the scales at
6 lbs. 12 oz. and stretched to the height of 20 inches. Dylan began his wait for the draft at 11:00 AM on Oct. 25, and finally was selected #1 at 7:32 AM on Oct. 26, 2007 for the team of Jason and Chrissy Overmohle of Hospers, IA. Head trainer, Chrissy, will be in charge of bulking the little man up, while assistant trainer, Jason, will be manning the towels (you know, diapers, spit rags, etc). Buc ( the dog) will be a future trainer when it comes time for running the drills.

Busy weekend

We had a busy weekend. Since the weather was going to be fairly decent, we decided that it was time to take the camper out for the last (possibly) time this season. We went to a new campground 8 miles west of Spencer called Scharnberg Park. It is a county campground with a 15 acre lake, beach, cabins, and campsites. Friday night was a little chilly, but Saturday was a beautiful day. The evening was even better! It isn't often that one can sit outside at night on Oct. 20 in short sleeves. The campfire was wonderful as the skies were clear and the stars were bright. Of course, the beer tasted good too.

Sunday, Chrissy's family had a baby shower for her. It was a fun to see all the neat stuff she was given. I thought I had checked out the baby departments, but she received some things that I had never seen before--like a warmer for baby wipes? I am totally in awe! Chrissy has been feeling good and is working yet today. The due date is this Friday and I think she would really like to have it by then. We shall wait and see.

We're still here!

Well, as I watch Dancing with the Stars and wish that I could be so light on my feet, and the thunder continues again tonight, I see that someone better do a little blogging. TWO WEEKS TILL BABY DUE DATE!!!!! I need to get my little bag packed so that when we get the call during the night, I am ready to go. Chrissy is doing fine and is continuing to work at the hospital. I will be going to a baby shower this Sunday that I think some relatives and friend of Chrissy are doing. (now it is pouring outside) Mike and I continue to work, work, work, but have found some time for fun. We went to see Sara Evans at the Clay County Fair and then went to a concert at BVU to see an accapella group called Rockapella. I have tickets to see this group perform their Christmas concert in Spirit Lake, but Mike isn't going to that one--girls night out. But we will be going to see Kenny Rogers in his Christmas concert the end of November. He is going to be in Spencer at the Events Center. We are going to try to get one last weekend of camping in this next weekend.

We have had some sad news--Mike's Uncle Butch Overmohle died a few days after his surgery in Rochester. It has been very difficult as he was only 62 and his wife is only 52. They had no children. Yesterday I was informed that one of my classmates, Steven Schnell, died unexpectedly last Thursday. We do not know the cause as of yet. Steven had just turned 50 this summer. Though I hadn't seen or talked to him in many years, it still is hard to imagine that our class has now lost 2 members. We think we will live forever!

We love to read everyone else's blogs--a wonderful way to keep in touch. Just need to be patient with us old folks, it takes us awhile. Love to you all!
