Give Thanks

I woke up this morning feeling extremely grateful. I know some days get "coo-coo" as we call it, but this morning was just one of those mornings that you get it. You get just how blessed you are. I know it is Thanksgiving and we should be remembering the things we are grateful for, but I will admit that I sometimes treat it like any other day. No, most normal days I don't eat turkey and gravy, but you know what I mean. Today, was a day that I actually took the time to step back and admire my children playing. Really watching them giggle and laugh. We are so blessed. We are surrounded by family and we are TRUELY grateful for everyone in our lives. Thank you! Thank you!

Life With Boys

Only in a house with 3 boys will you ever see something like this. I wouldn't believe it if I didn't see it with my own eyes. I'm not quit sure how this actually happened. No one could give me an answer. Imagine that!! Needless to say, we all ended up with a good laugh and the shirt found the trash!

Emmie Learns New Tricks

Emmie has learned that she can reach the piano all by herself. She loves music. And she loves the piano! Emmie also learned how to stand all by herself! She gets in a budah squat and then stands up. She's so funny!

What a Weekend!

Halloween was so much fun this year! Thankfully, I found the cutest Bumble Bee costume for Emmie at Cracker Barrell. That saved me from having to make it! YEAH. Baylor was Rey Mysterio and Landon was Mick Foley - Hello Mr. Sock-o!! For those of you who do not know - my kids are WWE maniacs. Corbin decided to do a classic character - Mr. Bones! Pa brought over the trailer full of hay for the kids. That was really great. They ran stronge for a while, but they slowly ran out of steam, in which the trailer was priceless! Thanks Pa and Tickle! Saturday was quite busy. We made Baylor breakfast for his Birthday and then headed to church for a run through of Sunday's Baptism. Afterwards we had lunch and then dropped the kids off at home with a sitter so we could go watch the FL vs. GA game at Pa and Tickle's house with other friends! Sunday was Emmie's Baptism! Marla and Scott are Emmie's Godparents. The church was packed. We are members at St. George Episcipal Church on Ft. George Island. It is very old and very tiny. It was a beautiful service. Emmie was so funny. When we walked up to the alter she saw her brothers and cousins and smiled with her sweet smile and said,"Hey!" It was great! As you can tell from the picture she loves to lean her head back. Aunt Marla had been flipping her the day before. I totally thought she was going to flip out of Kammy's arms! The kids thought that was hilarious!! It was a beautiful day filled with God's love! What more could you ask for?? We are truly blessed.
