GOIN' TO THE CHAPEL AND WE'RE GONNA GET MARRIED!

Many of you know that I lost my father over 8 years ago. It was and has been the lost of a lifetime for my mother and brother and I. But, our God is an awesome God and He has blessed my mother with another partner in life. On October 31st, my mother was married to John Smith. My sister in law and I were matron of honors, my brother gave her away and all of her grandchildren were bridesmaids and groomsmen. Bree was the flowergirl or should I say "leaf" girl. She walked down the aisle tossing silk leaves with complete preciseness. When she reached the front of the church she stopped, looked into her basket and saw a few more leaves and proceeded to dump the basket upside down to completely empty it- it was so adorable. What a beautiful Fall day it was for this event. We followed with a luncheon reception and then most of the out of town family congregated at my mother and John's new home. Bill and I took our children to his house however so we could ready them for trick or treating!

FALL COLORS


Wow-I have been way behind on this blog so I am going to attempt to catch up! October was a busy month, culminating with Halloween and my mother's wedding! Brynn and Brooke finished up a very successful first grading period at school. Brynn finished out her first season of volleyball. Bree has been thriving in preschool. Her vocabulary is immense, we just are working on articulation. She is getting weekly PT and OT at school. Her newest accomplishment is being able to climb the stairs holding on with only one hand! Here are some fall pictures .....

Those beautiful rosebud lips!
