Graysen's Woosh

"Mommy, lets go find a woosh"

"What's a woosh Graysen?"

"You know, when you pick it and close your eyes..."

"And make a woosh!"

 "Ah, yes, sweet girl.  Let's go find a woosh"

"I woosh I have a very beautiful dream tonight"

35 years

My in-laws celebrated 35 years of marriage a few weeks ago.
All of Lincoln's siblings surprised them with a special dinner out.  One drove all the way from Wisconsin!
We're so grateful they are in our lives!

What real thing are you celebrating right now?

Pajama Mama, a wonderful woman, and a fellow AAI momma wrote this sentence on her blog:

What real thing are you celebrating right now?

It really made me stop and think.  What am I celebrating right now?  Big or little?  I'll admit, I'm not doing much celebrating in my life right now.  I think that's a shame.  I'd like to start.  Hmm...

What thing are YOU celebrating right now?  Let's all share!

Graysen

Just some pictures of my favorite little girl...

hair braiding

The boys all know how to braid, but they really wanted to learn to braid hair.  

Aren't they lucky to have a sister who will sit still and let them practice?  

Aren't I lucky to have children who want to help each other?

I love them.

Waynesville Football

Yup, it's Waynesville...on my blog!
We're proud of Chad and his commitment to his new job and team.

We got to see Chad at 1/2 time on his way back up to the Press Box!

Graysen, cheering them on!

Go, Orange, Go!

pumpkin patch

*Picture overload*

My trusty companions (Kara and Chad) and I took three of the kids to the pumpkin patch this past weekend.  Hunter wasn't feeling up to it, so he stayed back with Grammie.    

He was so proud he found corn!

Silas

Blake
(I can NOT teach this kid to smile!)

Graysen

she's just so pretty, isn't she?

Riding the train

Silly picture poses

She rode this three times and by the last time she was holding her arms up in the air like she was on a roller coaster!
 Such a funny girl!

Someone trying to scare us in the corn maze...can you see anyone?
(Funny how kids think you can't see them in a bright orange shirt!)

Couldn't do life without these two!

Time to pick our pumpkins!

Lucky we had Chad to haul Hunter's too!

See...the smile.  *sad face*

This picture is hilarious.  It's missing Silas because he was having a pouting fit.  Also, it is an oversized chair, but I look so small!  

Our haul!

They had a huge corn pit to play in.

She's so brave!

Love my boy.

 

Wow...didn't realize how big I was getting!
(16 weeks)

We had a great afternoon!
