Halloween













Well this year was a bit different, the weather for one was so much better than last year!!! We went to a awesome Halloween party in the afternoon then went trick or treatin! Max asked me if he could go like big kids and go to houses he didn't know and only walk no car rides! I guess the getting dragged around wasn't really what they wanted so I waited on the sidewalk and they with their pillow cases went to the door yes I was the loser mom with tears in my eyes just because they are really trick or treating, Max never even looks back just goes up to the door says trick or treat Grady is behind yelling Happy Halloween then you hear a thank you! Then my favorite part looks at me then the pillow case then goes "yesssss!!! next house!!!! come on mom!" Grady didn't come home with much because I think he ate after each house......then we were very lucky to go to friends for supper and after supper the moms got to relax and all the boys went out for round 2 Max and Grady wanted to trick or treat in the dark............why are they growing up??????? Luckily Max and Grady have agreed to trade in their candy (Max almost filled his pillow case and as a mom I would have to take one for the team and eat and eat so...)

First question this morning......."Mom is it still Halloween???" "What?!? 364 sleeps!?!?!?"

Happy almost Halloween








Fall










Well my poor boys have been neglected they've barley had their picture taken....Im making up for that this winter I promise!! They change daily so I need to!! Grady has grown alot and I realized he isn't a baby anymore plus he yells at me "Im not a baby, Im GRADY" so ya ya I know they want to grow up it still makes me sad!! I wish I could record everything they say!! We had some people over for Thanks Giving and because we were so thankful for friends and family we sort of got carried away when I went up stairs to check on my men there was Max just laying there I asked him what was up and he said the last song was a little loud I told him that I still remember when grama and grampa had parties (he didn't believe me but...) me and auntie Kim would sleep in their beds and falls asleep to the loud music and laughing we always got to watch Saturday Night live and eat chips really doesn't sound like much but its some of my best memories!!! I told him he will look back the same way and he looked at me and said "mom...are you always going to be this crazy????" and I said "ABSOLUTELY" I love those little men, my big one too I am very thankful for my family and friends!!!!

September




























Wow its almost October Ive been a horrible blogger!!!! Well our September has been very busy we started the month off by going to the lake one last time (tear) we went to Emma and off roaded to Murry Point campground. Me and the boys set up and got out the real lego I had a glass of wine and we played actually just played all afternoon and night. It was perfect the sun was setting on us (yes actual sun) the lego I realized is like poly pockets for boys (I was worried Id never get a chance to play with them) it was great the boys lasted for hours no fights...........Shanny came to visit us and grama and grampa even came for a sleepover. We were so very lucky we even got a firework show!!! Well then it started to rain and rain and rain..............we didnt leave the trailer the furnace got a major work out Im sure then I was anxious to go home now I would trade that in a heart beat oh well I read a book a whole book it has been 4 years since Ive had the opportunity I had forgotten how much I loved it!! So we have parked the trailer and said our good byes till May (tear tear)
The boys both started school, Max returning as one of the big kids and Grady his first day of school! Both of the boys are doing very well!! Max goes Monday to friday and Grady Mon, Wed and Fri. Both look forward to going each time.
We celebrated my birthday I told the boys to tell people that Im 20 and they do its perfect!!! And today is Grady's 3rd birthday and Im sad shouldn't I be happy???? Im sad that 3 years would go by so fast and why are the boys growing so fast. We had some family over yesterday to celebrate we had a fish fry outside the weather has been awesome (don't worry I just knocked on wood) all the kids got to play outside together and we sent them home with their own fish (ya that makes us hypocrites ) It was great thank you everyone!!!!
