thankful thursday

today I am thankful for:

1. the chick-fil-a play place (on a rainy day)
2. a new to us TV
3. small group
4. those four knuckle-heads up there (their faces in this picture crack me up!)
5. the hubs comes home tomorrow
6. a wonderful co-teacher
7. ice cream bars ( I am pretty sure I am addicted)

wordless wednesday

she can do it!!

Ella conquered the monkey bars after only a few tries! I am not shocked, because she really is a monkey most days.

Beyond proud

of my big boy!!
He is playing awesome on his AAU team. He just gets better each week. Go Big Jon!!!

favorite foto friday

I love everything about this picture- the subject, the activity, and that my little girl took it. It just makes a mommy smile!

my guys

I sure do love these three! One is the love of my life- the other two have stolen my heart! Sometimes I wonder how I got so blessed to have 3 wonderful guys in my life!

We love doggies!

real and stuffed :)

candles

We learned last month (when my hubby turned 41) that 41 candles make a lot of light and . . .

a lot of smoke :)

Happy 9th birthday to my Grace!!
Love you sweetheart!

this girl. . .

registered for kindergarten today. Not sure if I am happy or sad.

these kids. . .

this little guy is growing up way too fast- talking, running, and doing everything on his own!! Loves anything and everything to do with balls!!!

this big guy is almost as tall as his dad. His love for his siblings just brings tears to my eyes.

this girl wants so bad to grow up! She is turning into quite the athlete- basketball was great and now we are moving on to volleyball. A girl after my own heart!

this little girl is fearless! Rides a 2-wheeler like she was born doing it and the other day crossed the monkey bars all by herself!!

Happy Birthday to

the world's greatest husband,

and father!! We love you!!!

sisters. . .

are the best!
