Fall Fun...

This past weekend we headed out for a favorite fall fun day at

Dewberry Farms.

Ava and Ashton had such a good time... great weather + good food= Lots of FUN!

Who Lives in a Pineapple Under the Sea...

Sponge Bob Square Pants!!

Just so you know..
At our house the television usually remains off during most part of the day... and when I do have it on, it mostly always on Noggin. However, Ava LOVES Sponge Bob (which I hate), and occasionally I will let her watch an episode.

For Ashton's birthday my mom got them these PJ's, and I think they are cute!!

What more can I say....

He is a BIG, healthy, happy, 1 year old boy!!

weight: 25lbs. 8 oz. (90 percentile)

height: 32 inches (95 percentile)

ALL BOY!!

The BIG Day!

LOOK WHO'S 1 !!!

We had a great party and want to thank everyone for being apart of his special day. We are blessed.

Happy Birthday Ashton!

A year ago today at 12:59pm we welcomed a precious little boy into the world. He has completed our family, and I am blessed to be his mommy. You LOVE your mommy to hold you full time...and have no interest in walking.

You love your sister...EVERYTHING about her.

You hear "daddy"...and start looking for him.

You can do patty cake all day long.

You can dance to the beat of anything making sound.

You love playing peek-a-boo...I see you.

You are LOUD and let us know when your not happy.

You love chicken nuggets.

"Outside" is your favorite word.

You are the BEST little boy for our family.

WE LOVE YOU SO SO MUCH!!

My girl...

talkin about my girl.....

Summer Lovin

Ahhhh life in the fast lane....I just cannot keep up with my blog. This summer seems so busy and full of fun, of course. For the 4th we went to Moody Gardens in Galveston, in this 104 degrees you have to have some water to play in.

Here are some of my sweet boy taken today.

More of a GOOD thing...

Here are some more pictures taken at our family reunion.

My sisters babies and my babies. Easton is 5, Waylon & Ava are 2 (3 months apart), London is 1 & Ashton...well is is almost 1!!!(1 month apart). I SO wish we lived closer...but since we don't EVERY time we get together we cherish EVERY moment.

Yes, she is my Geisha Girl!

Ava was 4 months old when Thomas was getting his Masters and while in the program he went on an international trip to China. Yes. This was one of the kimonos he brought back Ava, and Yes. it finally fits! She LOVED it and wanted to wear it the whole day... I would have let her but it was just way to hot for long sleeves.

I am sure it will fit for awhile and she will get to wear it again, again and Yes. again!

Cousins, Family, Friends, Water & Cookouts!

A busy Summer...Already!

We were gone from home for a week. Lots of fun with family and friends....And once I get things unpacked and back to our schedules I will post more pictures.

But for now enjoy these sweet faces!

Waylon, Easton, London Ava & Ashton

Our Anniversary

4 years ago today was the perfect day of my life. The day I would marry my soul mate and best friend. As partners and parents we share everything--each joy and each challenge that family can bring...I love you.
I will leave you with a poem my sweet husband wrote while we were dating.

The Search

Once there were two hearts that searched for something better.

But their one true love came to them never.

Where was the love they searched so hard for?

Someone to hold, someone to adore.

Then one night by pure chance,

What was this each saw at a glance?

Could this be the one, the one for me?

No one can tell; we'll just have to see.

And so it began the quest for love.

I hope this is the one from the man above.

Along the path many hurdles will be crossed,

But isn't this wonderful that the emptiness is lost.

How does one know when true love is found?

I don't know, how does your heart sound?

When you are apart does your heart flutter,

Then quite possibly you were meant for each other.
