Update from Team Haskin


We have been busy this fall traveling, working and playing. Russ had a great trip to Chile and Argentina in September with his MBA program, and we are both getting excited to see him graduate on December 9th!!!  It has been a slow yet fast process, and I am very proud of the hard work he has put in this year.  After he returned, the whole family joined him in Philadelphia for his annual user conference.  The boys enjoyed hotel life and seeing the city.  I really enjoyed the change of scenery and seeing a little of what Russ does when he is away.  After a few days at home, we were off again to beautiful Cohasset, MA to see Brian and Janet tie the knot!   

I hope to have some pictures soon from my brother's wedding. We had a great time, and it was a wonderful experience to see Brian get married. Drew was a great ring bearer, and Rhys enjoyed partying the night away. It was definitely a great family celebration and a great opportunity to see our extended family. A big thanks to Moose, Missy and Auntie Kristin for helping us take care of the kids that weekend! 

We then took the opportunity to spend some time together as a family in the Outer Banks.  Packing nothing but pjs and sweats, we all enjoyed the down time together and the beautiful fall weather.  We enjoyed the outdoors, walking to the Whalehead Club and checking out the lighthouse.  We didn't cook the entire weekend and just really tried to enjoy eachother. 

Since then we have just been catching up with friends and working a bit on the house.  I have really enjoyed decorating a bit and really love my part-time schedule.  Drew seems to be enjoying his little preschool and Rhys loves having a few hours home alone.  Rhys has graduated from physical therapy!!!!  and is starting to walk a bit.  He talks up a storm and has the sweetest little Southern voice I have ever heard.  When he greets you with a Hiya Ma Ma, it just makes me melt.
