Oops!

I had plans to post a big blog about my week and some RTT's that I missed this week, BUT instead I changed my background on my blog!! Sorry I had an OH SHINY moment!! I still intend on posting later! I have a wonderful section planned for Veteran's day. Until then you will have to wait because it is past my bedtime : )

Family Pictures

Today my sister in law Brandy took a few family pictures for us so I thought I would share with you.....


Here you go!

    

I think that one of these pictures is going to be our Christmas card picture I just haven't decided which one just yet!

My very first R.T.T!!!

Here is my very first R.T.T!

*My son is refusing to play in his room instead insist on dragging every car or truck into the living room and playing with them in there... Have I mentioned that he makes really REALLY loud car noises when he plays!! It is sorta annoying.

* My middle sister Haley is going to be cheering at her very last high school football game this Friday night. So weird that she is a senior!

* I have an EXTREME case of baby fever. I just wish that my husband would catch it!!

* I didn't cook dinner tonight! But please don't tell!

* I have had a few issues at work that are stressing me out and I am doing my best to be very very very understanding about the whole situation. But it doesn't seem to be working.

* I have HUGE ideas for Christmas just don't know when I will get to start them!

There you have it! My Random Thoughts! I am sure there will be way more to come.

Well there you have it.... Our Halloween adventure!

Thankful

Everyday I wake up and I am thankful that I have a job, a roof over my head, food on my table, clothes on my back and of course my family. I know that there are people out there that don't have a job, or they are about to lose their house or car, I know that some people go to bed hungry. I am very aware of the world around me and I am scared. I am scared that when J is older things will be worse than they are now. It makes me want to lock in him in a closet forever! But some how I don't think DHS would approve of that : ) I am glad that J is healthy and happy. I have been reading MckMama for a while now. If you don't know Stellan's story please go read it. I don't even know this little boy and he has captured my heart. I love the MckFamily. I love how MckMama is so strong and through it all she still is strong enough to share the adventures of her MSC. I have added Stellan and MckMama to my prayers everynight.

So step back and take a look at things you maybe taking for granted: your job, your home, your family, and remember that something can happen in a blink of an eye. I have stopped stressing that my house isn't clean and my laundry isn't always completely done. Now we have been doing more things as a family. We carved pumpkins the other night and had a blast doing it. I would love to show you pictures but I can't because my camera battery is DEAD! And the charger is MIA!!! So if you have seen my charger could you please tell me where it is!

We went to the pumpkin patch!

Jackson had to have to biggest and best pumpkin at the patch!!

So he searched and searched..

He finally found it!!!! Yay!!

Jackson with his pumpkin after he decorated it. To the mother who invented this Mr Potatoe Head typed pumpkin things you are a genius!!! His pumpkin doesn't look like this anymore he has changed it so much that it has a million holes in it!!
