Is Santa Here Yet?

All Because Two People Fell in Love

Thank you God for my Husband and Babies!

Yesterday I suffered from the horrible 24 hr. stomach bug that seems to have overtaken the city, or least almost everyone I know right now. It was NO fun! My wonderful hubby stayed home and took care of the kids and house yesterday. He did such a GREAT job!!! I am so blessed to have this man as my husband. I can't even begin to put into words how much I love this man! Not just because of yesterday but how he provides and cares for this family everyday!!! The kids had fun with dad. I could hear them through the monitor all day (since I was shut up in my room). I missed them so much! They were laughing and playing and reading books. All the things I seem to take for granted everyday. Last night I was feeling much better and helped put the kids to bed. At the end of their prayers Emily added on her own, and God, help Mommy to feel better. Through my tears I told her thank you and then thanked my God for giving me such a wonderful husband and two beautiful kids!!!! Pardon my sappy post, but I just had to share how blessed I am!

Jack O Lanterns

We made Jack O Lanterns with the kids last night. It was so much fun!!! They had the most fun seeing them lit up. We all picked out the faces, drew them on and cut them out. Neither one liked the gooey insides and didn't want to try cinnamon and sugar roasted pumpkin seeds, but Mom and Dad had a blast. I think they like pumpkins with candy inside the best!! Happy Halloween!!!!

Fun in Ozarks

We spent several days last week in Arkansas. We go every year to visit some craft shows, four wheel and just relax in the quite hillside of the Ozarks with family. We had a great time this year. Here are some pics from the trip.

Number 3

It is so hard to believe that almost three years ago I brought this beautiful, tiny baby girl home. She is still beautiful and tiny, but not a baby. She can carry on a conversation, go to the potty, and has to do everything herself. My how time flies! Here are pics of her parties on Saturday. Yes that is parties. I ran myself ragged Saturday with a friend party followed by a family party. Thanks so much to Summer who helped make the friend party so wonderful for both our girls!!!! Also to our family who made Emily's day very special!!! (but I don't think I'll do two the same day again)
