Purdue Beats Ohio State (a little late)




So I am a little late getting this post up because I have been lazy about emptying my pictures off my camera and I couldn't make this post without pictures to prove that this happened!


So remember my small rant about our 1-5 Purdue Boilermakers and how bad this year was on a Purdue fan well that all changed on Saturday October 17th as my dad the optimist is already texting my brother "do you feel a miracle" at 12:04 p.m. Well that is exactly what took place a Miracle! (Robbie and Grandpa I think you had something to do with this)

Pryor had a less then stellar performance (not impressed) and our boys looked awesome! GO PURDUE way to beat Ohio State :) Top 10 really???



Ok, so we beat Illinois this past weekend and Matt and I are headed up to Ann Arbor in 2 weeks so lets keep this "streak" alive, prove everyone wrong (including myself) that we can end this season on the up side; 500 please!!

BABY HEINEKAMP!!!

So we finally came public with this wonderful news, we are expecting baby #1 on May 3,2010. I found out on a Monday evening and quickly flicked all the lights on in the house and woke up Matt who was napping on the couch with the dogs. I cried, I jumped up and down, and then we sat for a good hour trying to let it all sink in. (I don't even think it's really quite sank in yet)

We are so excited to be bringing a sweet little life into this world and one that is completely a mix of me and Matt :) Tune into the blog to hear all the funny moments, the emotional moments, all the cravings and freaking out over becoming a MOM on here as we let it unfold for all of our friends and family.

* Side note, ladies who have had bad morning sickness I am truly sorry, I have been so lucky and I was only sick for about 3 days right at my 8 week mark. So women who haven't had babies yet it is possible not to be sick for 3 full months!

6 months to get used to the idea of actually birthing this baby, that's gonna be a tough one!

Stay tuned,

Allison and BABY

The life of an event planner

So it is 2 days until my next big event at work which means my stomach has been in knots since Sunday night in hopes that I haven't forgotten anything, are all of my volunteers going to show up, is anyone really going to come, or in hopes that it's not going to rain. Well thank you weather man we are going to have scattered showers all day! :( I guess that is what I get for having a beautiful golf outing already this year and a beautiful walk last year. Well we are determined to make this event a success even if people get a little wet. It's for a good cause right?

So Walk With Me is in it's 2nd year and we are having it at Butler University once again this year and it will be taking place on Thursday evening. From 4:30 to 6:30 there will be fun games and activities for the whole famliy! Radio Disney will be there playing some tunes and of course giving away free stuff, we'll have a costume contest, face painter, and food. The walk begins at 6:30 and circles around part of Butler's beautiful campus!

Home Improvements

So I know it has been a while since I last posted and we've had a few things going on here since then.

First of all, lets just get this out of the way. Purdue you are breaking my heart. We are 1-4, holy cow that hurts to say out loud. I guess I can always use the excuse that IU has used for the last 5 years in football and basketball, "this is a transition year". Hope I really hope you aren't "hopeless" hahaha no pun intended (ok maybe a little).

Second, everyone who has ever owned a home knows that when it rains it pours and it's been pouring in the Heinekamp home for about a month now. First, the dishwasher went out... so we bought a new dishwasher (one i loooove) yes you know you are old when you swoon over appliances. Matt along with a little helping hand from my dad succesfully installed the new one in one evening.


Fast forward to a couple weeks later, it's a lazy Sunday around the house for me and the pups which means I clean in between sitting my butt on the couch watching reruns of 90210 and One Tree Hill on Soap Net. Well I went to go pull out my cleaning stuff when what do I notice standing water at the bottom of our cabinet under the sink. (rains it pours, literally). So Matt begins to research installing a sink, after it is labeled easy and the dishwasher was labeled moderate he thinks he has it in the bag. Well 3 days later and about 10 trips to the Lowes it is in and BEAUTIFUL :)

My husband rocks, and with a little patience we didn't have to pay anyone to come out and fix either. :)

So that is the happenings in the world of the Heinekamps since we last posted. Looking forward to a great October, I LOVE FALL :)

It is almost my favorite day of the year!!



So much to be excited about today!!




1. It is FRIDAY!!




2. It is Friday of a loooong weekend and thanks to my little trip last weekend for work a 4 day weekend for me :) Tuesday off!!




3. I had lunch with my cousin today after a very long absence from seeing eachother, I got pooped on 3 times by a bird (the same bird I am pretty sure, it never showed it's face, COWARD) But it provided some much needed laughs after a long week.




3. Last but not least it is the night before COLLEGE FOOTBALL!! For those of you who have known me for a long time you know I am like a little kid on Christmas Eve awaiting a huge pile of presents under the Christmas tree the next morning. There is nothing like waking up packing up a cooler, jammin to some THIS IS WHAT IT'S LIKE WHEN WORLDS COLLIDE!! (miss doing this with my bro and sis though) and then traveling up to Purdue for some football and tailgating. AHHHH can't wait. Hopefully we don't bake too much in stands from the heat and hopefully the boys don't fall flat on their face out there like a middle school football team but both are very likely at this point. Keep fingers crossed that neither of these scenarios happens and we bring home a W!




BOILER UP!!!!

Pictures as Promised

NEW BLOGGER!!

So this is all brand spankin new to me but I am tired of reading everyones blog and not having one of my own. So I'm giving it a shot!

First things first, lets catch up on the life and times of the Heinekamps :)

We have now been married over a year, we had our 1 year anniversary on June 20, 2009! My amazing husband bought us Wicked Tickets and not just any tickets but Row E center stage! HECK YES MY HUSBAND ROCKS!! Not to mention the beautiful flowers he brought home.

We also added to the family and adopted the newest member in April, a 4 year old Golden Retriever who we have named Bentley. He is now our angel sent here to free us from the craziness that was the Layla Puppy, he is now her outlet for all her energy and they run and play and can beat up on eachother all they want! We love our dogs and couldn't imagine life without their cute furry faces :)

That is all for now and check back because there will be pictures to come!

*I am going to love this blogging stuff, make sure to follow us!!!
