Fall is here!!!

Today we went to Evan's Orchard with some friends. The kids didn't have school today so there was a big group of us which always makes for a fun time. I picked Jen and Jack up, and after getting lost, found the orchard. we unloaded the kids and let them loose. Oh wait, mine doesn't leave my side. So I took Mac around while Jen sat with Gray. We saw the goats, went down the slide, swang, and climbed the hay castle. after we all went and picked apples. Mac comfortably rode in the wagon with Anna Claire. We did all this while Gray sat peacefully in his car seat. Then we ended with a hot dog and fresh apple cider. So good! It was a Great morning.

Is it bad to want to betroth Mac and Anna?:) She is so adorable and love the family. Hillary pulled Mac and Anna Claire around in the wagon. They shared chips and threw freshly picked apples. Too cute.





Mac was too busy eating his chips and not watching where he was going and got snagged by a couple of branches. One of the scratches started at the brim of his nose and ended at his ear. Poor guy, he didn't even cry.

I'm 25!!!

I had the best birthday this year. Drew took me out Saturday night. We ate at PF Chang's and did a little shopping after. It was funny cause I ended up not getting anything and Drew walked away with a suit, pants and a vest. Who's birthday was it? When we went to go get Mac at the Hyde's, Debbie had invited some friends over and made me a birthday cake. I teared up, it was my first birthday cake in four years. We did the whole singing and blowing out the candles. So sweet. I have the best friends out here. Not only did Debbie watch my handful of a son but helped her kids make me birthday cards and put together a great party. Thank you!



I just plopped down on the floor and fed the half naked Mac and the twins cake.



Sunday morning I woke up to my real birthday. Drew did not fail and made me feel extra special on my day even though he wasn't there for a lot of it. He gave me some fun, thougthful gifts. That night we ate dinner at the Floyd's. Nothing like two parties. Later that night friends dropped by with cakes, presents, and cards. Like I said before I have the most wonderful, thoughtful friends.

Also I got so many phone calls, texts, and cards from friends and family that don't live around here. Too bad I forgot my phone for most of the day, so if I didn't answer your calls it's cause I didn't have it on me. But I did appreciate all of them.

Thank you, thank you to all my family and friends; you really made me feel so loved!!!

3 Months old!

Our little Gray is 3 months old today! I can't put into words how much I love him. He has the sweetest spirit about him. Lately he's been cooing all day and he's just full of smiles and giggles, we can't take our eyes off of him. Even Mac can't seem to get enough of him. I love it when Mac gives Gray a hug and talks to him in his super high pitched voice. But then it usually leads to Mac tickling Gray which usually ends with Mac hitting Gray. But hey, it all started with a hug:)

.Last week Gray let me sleep 7 hours two nights in a row! Perfect, I tell ya.
