October Fun!

I know I don't post that often these days. It may be due to the fact that I have 3 very energetic preschoolers who are 4 and a half, 2 and a half, and 1 and a half. In June I decided to start selling Arbonne skin care products as well, so that has also kept me hopping!! I do enjoy it though. I have also thoroughly been enjoying singing in our church's worship choir on Sunday mornings!!

Here are some pictures of the kids having fun at our church's Fall Festival, and at a bonfire and hayride we co-hosted with Marmee and Pop.

Layla is really enjoying preschool in Mrs. Cassie's class. On the way home from school last Wednesday, she told me, "Mom, I'm really liking school!"

Anna Lea has had several hair style changes lately due to that fact that Layla has "learned" how to use scissors at school. We gave Anna Lea a cute little bob a few weeks ago. A couple days ago, I went to the bathroom for a minute. When I came out, Layla had gotten the scissors out and whacked off literally half of Anna Lea's hair. I took her to the beauty shop to see if they could help it look any better than it did, and they were able to help it somewhat. There is still a huge gash in the very back. Oh well, I guess it will grow out eventually.

Wyatt is really starting to say alot of words, including: Choo-Choo, train, Juice, Target, and toot! His new favorite show if you havent figured it out yet, is Thomas and Friends. He will get his sippy cup, climb up on the couch, lay back with his blanket, and say "TOO TOO" "Tain" until he gets someone to turn it on for him:)

How Does Your Garden Grow??

Carrots
Tomatoes

Cushaw

Green Beans

Hydrangea Bush

These are some pictures taken of our garden and Hydrangea Bushes on June 2nd. We are getting Green Beans, Squash, Zucchini, and Peppers about everyday now from our garden. They are DELICIOUS!! My favorite part of having a garden is picking the produce and eating it for supper!!

How many kids can you fit in ONE pool??

This past Friday my friend Elisha brought her 4 children over to play with my 3 children. We filled up the little kiddie pool, and they just had a blast!! They really enjoyed their time together playing, eating lunch, and playing some more.

First time without KIDS!!

Rob and I were able to get away for a long weekend this past weekend for the first time ever without our children!! It was very nice to spend some time together all by ourselves. We stayed at a beach house on St. George Island, FL. We got to do whatever we wanted to do whenever we wanted to do it!! That turned out to be just sitting at the beach, eating out almost every meal, and just plain taking it easy. It was so nice to not have to think about preparing meals OR cleaning up after them! That was probably my favorite part of our time away. I think Rob's favorite was just sitting on the beach soaking up the sun and watching the fishermen. We were able to see a fisherman catch a baby shark. That was pretty neat, but it also made you wonder just how close his moma and daddy were swimming?!

We did miss our kids, but were very thankful for Marmee and Pop taking excellent care of them while we were gone!! Thankyou, Thankyou, Thankyou!!!

WE'RE BACK!!!!!

Wyatt on the kitchen table

Well, I am finally back in the blogging world after some technical difficulties. Here are some pictures of the kids from last month. Layla just turned 4 on May the 3rd and thinks she knows everything! Anna Lea just turned 2 on April 17th, and her current hobbies are picking every flower that she sees and throwing temper tantrums when she can't have juice. Wyatt just turned 1 on May 8th and his latest tricks are walking, repeating "No" from his sisters, and as you can see climbing onto the table! So, never a dull moment around here if you haven't figured that out yet.

Rob has completed his electrical schooling and is now working full time managing rental properties. I have just started my own business as a consultant selling Arbonne! We both love to get out in our beautiful vegetable garden in the evenings when we can and work in it. (Mainly Rob working while I keep Anna Lea from destroying it!) I will put some pictures of it up soon because I am so proud of it. I did pick our first squash yesterday and we had with our supper last night. DELICIOUS!!

More Pictures of Benton Falls Hike

Snack Time!

Had to throw in this funny picture of Shrek that I had taken last month!

9 Months Old!

Our little boy was nine months old yesterday. He continues to be the sweetest thing. He is absolutely no problem to take anywhere. The first pictures were taken today. The others were taken last month.

Our whole family along with Marmee, Pop, Uncle Will, and Smokey (Will's newest dog) went on a hike to Benton Falls last month. Wyatt fell asleep on my shoulders while we were hiking to the falls. Layla and Anna Lea did pretty well. Their favorite part was when we reached the falls and stopped to eat a snack of canned peaches and chocolate teddy bears. Yum!

Good Morning Blue Eyes!
