Signs of Fall

We didn't have any trees in our yard when we moved here, so we have planted three since we moved in. This is one that we planted a couple of years ago, and the leaves are turning such a beautiful red, I had to take a picture.

Upcoming Missions Celebration

Next week is the start of Missions Celebration at our church. They gave Kendra a box to put money in for one of the missionaries that will be coming. Grandma gave them money to put in it, so here they are having fun putting it all in. Kendra also put some of her money in, but she was excited to have more! Thank you, Grandma!

Bath Time Fun

Here are a few pictures I took the other night at bath time.They really have fun. Collin starts undressing himself and tries to climb into the bathtub every night after supper!

Marriage

So, I started going to a Bible study last week, and had not actually looked at the book beforehand. One of the first questions was, what is your favorite romantic song? When I am put on the spot like that I can never think, and I could not even think of the song Mike and I had at our wedding! (I should have put you on speed dial on my cell phone, Angie and Amy!) That will teach me to not look at the book next time! :) Anyway, I decided to look up the lyrics to it today. Our Bible study is "Falling in Love With Jesus", and I think it will be good. Anyway, it got me to thinking about a lot of things, one of which being marriage. I am so thankful for Mike, and his promise to me. He has many qualities that I do not have, but wish I did! Such as thinking things through before diving in and realizing what a mess I have. :) So, here is to you, Mike. I love you.

Tile :Geoff Moore And The Distance - If You Could See What I See
All of my life I have dreamed that somehow love would find me. Now I can't believe you're standing here. If beauty is all in the eye of the beholder then I wish you could see the love for you that lives in me. (Chorus)And you would know you have my heart, if you could see what I see. That a treasure's what you are if you could see what I see. Created to be the only one for me. If you could see what I see.I know there are days when you feel so much less than ideal wondering what I see in you. It's all of the light and the grace, your belief in me drives me to say that I promise you a faithful love, forever true(Chorus)If you could see then you'd understand why I fall down to my knees, and I pray my love will be worthy of the one who gave his life so our love could be, if you could see what I see(x2)You're created to be the perfect one for me, If you could see what I see..if beauty is all in the eye of the beholder then I am beholding...true beauty.

Play Time

Ashton came over this morning for a couple of hours and played with Collin. They had a great time. They played a version of hide and go seek/ peek a boo I had never seen before. It was funny to watch. I didn't even try to get a video, because I knew Collin would stop if I did!

Collin had to unload all of the toys to show Ashton.


Quite the little stunt man, huh?! He thought he was pretty funny.

New Shoes!

I made my typical mistake of "browsing" on Ebay the other day, and ended up having to get Collin a pair of Nike shoes. Hey, he didn't have any tennis shoes, so there really was a need! :) Anyway, he was really excited when they came, and doesn't want to take them off!

Another Sick Day

Today I am supposed to work, but ended up staying home because Kendra woke up with a fever and wasn't feeling good. She seems to be a little bit better now, so maybe this won't last long. It is a good chance to catch up on some things...catching up on my blog, laundry, etc!
