Happy Birthday Truss!



We celebrated Truss' second birthday this weekend at the park. The sun was shining and despite a cold wind, everyone had fun! The kids played and played and then enjoyed pizza and cake. I can't wait to see what kind of goodies Truss got! Happy birthday to the cutest nephew I know! We love you Truss!

Playgroup Halloween Party



Gosh, almost every night when I say my prayers, I have to thank God for the wonderful group of women and children in our neighborhood. I LOVE being a stay at home mommy and rarely have a bad day. It is, I believe, due to the fact that I am surrounded by other Mommies that love their job and want to have as much fun with their babies as possible. Every single day there is something going on. Whether everyone is meeting at the playground after naps, taking a field trip, or just playing at a friends house. I feel so fortunate to know these ladies and have my children play with their children.

Today, we had a Halloween Party at Carrie Beth's house. Avery was thrilled because she would get lots of playtime with her best friend Handley and all of her other girl friends. Dylan, he just loves it all! He loved pin the nose on the pumpkin. Christy made her delicious pumpkin cookies and we did crafts and caught up. What a fantastic Friday! I can hardly believe how big our little pumpkins have gotten!

Spoiled silly in no time!



When Grammy and Grampa roll into town we know we are going to have lots of fun and accomplish a lot! We are so so so fortunate we get to see them so often despite the miles between us. They came for the Big Boy's second birthday. We packed the weekend full of parties, dinners, a soccer game, and lots of playtime. We also have two clean and waxed cars, pictures hung, a train table assembled, and lots of repairs around the house. There is absolutely nothing that dynamic duo can't do! We loved getting to spend time with them. Thanks for coming to visit Grammy and Grampa! We will see you soon in your neck of the woods! Love you!













Of course, I ended the weekend with a flat tire. But, Dylan fixed it for me with his tools :)

Dylan's 2nd Birthday



As I still can't even fathom how on Earth two years have past (tear, tear), my little boy is thrilled! He can sort of hold two fingers in the air, he kind of twists them as if he is crossing his fingers for good luck, he can tell you is two, and absolutely loved his party! He was looking forward to the cake, presents, and all of his friends and family being together for weeks. We had a gorgeous day and he was spoiled silly! Both of his grandparents were at the party, some of our family and friends. The kids jumped in the awesome bounce house my sister Tally let us borrow. We ate pizza, cake, and adorable horse cookies that my talented friend Christy made. Happy Birthday Dylan! We love you and hope your second year is full of blessings!!

Princesses



My Dad suprised me with four tickets to the Disney Princesses on Ice show! I was over the moon excited to share such a special show with the girls. We asked our friends Sheila and Addyson to join us and it was a magical afternoon for sure. To get us started, Sheila spoiled the girls with princess goody bags. From there we went to our awesome seats to watch the sweetest show! All of us were mesmerized! Disney sure knows how to do it right! Thank you Dad! We all felt like princesses watching the show from our suite seats!













A Sunday Morning at Berry Patch Farms



For the fourth year in a row, we made it to Berry Patch Farms. Always a fun time! We got to see the animals, have a snack, ride the hayride, visit the patch, and enjoy a beautiful day with our family. I have tons of pictures so I won't bore you with words...



















Saturday, Ammy even helped us cheer for Avery and her soccer team!


Happy Fall!
