So...here we go!

1. Sometimes, I pretend like I'm listening to Becky on the phone when I'm really not.

2.Will tell you about the whole thing. (over and over and over again. Just ask my husband)

3. Small is sometimes the very best (picture my cute little Beckett).

4. Being around my family is very enlightening. (oh I thought that said disheartening. LOL)

5. I keep meaning to post about Holden's favorite things for his 4th birthday. (It will happen soon)

6. Hasn't convinced Tim that Bring it On is a great movie ...yet.

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to a great coupon class with an old friend, tomorrow my plans include Holden's first ever friend birthday party and Sunday, I want to enjoy Church! 

 

So what do you guys think? Do you like these posts or are they super lame? I do like that it's helping to post something and not feel so overwhelmed about it.

Wordless Wednesday

Anakin Sywalker and Yoda-Could they be any cuter?

Beckett really wasn't sure if he wanted to go trick or treating at all.  But once he realized you got candy he was all over it. And Holden had no problem showing him what to do. Best trick or treating yet.

So...here we go!

1. While the cat's away the mice will shop.

2. I am fabuloso!

3. Children are the best thing in the world! (and a big pain in my butt.)

4. I am exhausted when I get home from work or shopping or what have you.

5. This may seem odd, but I HATE mayo!

6. My brother is coming to UT for a visit and that seems like a fine idea to me!

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to quiet time with Tim, tomorrow my plans include trick or treating and Sunday, I want to relax (but I'm not going to hold my breath)!

Nine Years Ago Today...

Nine years ago today I had butterflies in my stomach and a veil on my head.

Nine years ago today I was in love with a wonderful man.

But I didn't know then just how much I would love him today. I love him so much more than my beautiful dress or flowers could represent. He has been there through great vacations, the struggles of infertility, the loss of a baby, the birth of two amazing children, and everything in between. I couldn't have picked a better partner, a better husband, a better friend.

 Nine years ago today I married my fabulous husband, Tim.

I love you, Tim!

Holden's first day of school

Holden had his first day of PreK today. He did wonderfully, of course. He is in the same classroom as last year with one of the same teachers so he didn't even bat an eye. He even asked me why I was walking in with him instead of just dropping him off outside.

I think he was more excited for his new Star Wars shoes than he was for starting school again.
