Remembering…

We will always remember the sadness of today…

Praying for all of the families and loved ones lost.

May Peace be with all of our Nations, one day.

Summer, We’ll Miss You

I feel that Summer is coming to an end, and Fall will be here very soon. The all too hot weather has turned into mild sunny days, and rainy ones too. The bright green trees will soon turn their pretty Fall colors. We’ll miss the Summer fun, but I’m not sad, Fall is by far my favorite of all seasons.

This Summer was a really fun one filled with many activities, sunburns, ice cream, and days out in the warm sunshine.I thought it would be fun to share a few of our favorite Summer memories…

I loved taking my Mom and the boy’s  to see my Brother in K.C. It was such a fun trip, and I hope to make it up to see him again soon. I bet K.C. is just lovely in the Fall.

We had a fun trip to Grandma’s, and Thade loved riding the rides at the Kiddie Amusement Park.

We all enjoyed the local Summertime Festival, and the tasty Ice Cold Lemonade.

I really loved the big shady trees, and the pretty pink flowers that bloomed in our front yard.

I had so much fun working in the Garden, and harvesting a few crops here and there.

I’ll miss the pretty butterflies, and my darling toad Spencer who helped take care of the garden.

I’ll always remember the pretty Summer skies and the powerful Summer storms.

I’ll miss Summertime, but I can’t wait for Fall. I’m already looking forward to the Fall Festivals, Halloween, Thanksgiving, and of course all of the Football games. I think it is going to be a fantastic Fall.

I hope that you and your family had a wonderful Summer, and I hope that Fall is just as much fun.

New Shoes

With Fall on the way it was time for Dylan to get a new pair of shoes. I saved almost every pair of shoes that were Thade’s when he was little, but somehow they are either way too big for Dylan or for another season. Oh well, he’s gotta have them, so Dylan picked out Thomas the Train shoes.

Dylan loves his new shoes, and he wants to wear them all the time. I’ll put his new shoes on his little feet, and he’ll run around the house, yelling “go, go”. It makes me smile to see Dylan so excited about those little shoes.

Dang, now I want new shoes…

Oh Electrical Woes

After the party was over last night, we could smell an odd burning scent in the living room. No candles were lit, and then the lights went off. We had a little wiring problem with one of our outlets, we were lucky though, we caught it just in time.

So today we are having a few of our electrical woes fixed, and I hope that all will be better soon… It is getting a little warm in the house.

Happy Grandparent’s Day

I had a super secret surprise planned for Grandma and Nana to celebrate Grandparent’s Day. I made them each an album filled with photos from special days and trips to Grandma’s and Nana’s. I left a little bit of room in each of the albums to add in future pictures. I think they were both happy with their gifts.

I made a big dinner to say thanks for all that they have done for us. The boy’s are very lucky to have such amazing Grandmas! We all had a fun day filled with lots of hugs from Grandma and Nana!

I also want to wish all of the Grandma’s and Grandpa’s a very Happy Grandparent’s Day!
