Happy Thanksgiving!!

We have had such a wonderful weekend. Spending all this time with Mikayla was the best part of the whole time!!! We have had fun, I attempted to shop on Friday and ended up leaving empty handed and went to Joanns and came out with about 4 inches of paper :) I just can't help myself.

Here are some pics of my favorite gal!!!

A much quieter celebration

Today is my Mom's birthday, she would have been 70. I'm sure we would have had a party and gifts and fun and laughter. Instead we quietly remember how special she was and always will be to us. We will always remember.

Also my darling Leslie's birthday was November 3. We didn't have access to the computer then but I wanted her to be remembered too. She would have been 41 and happy and shocked that she was now in the 40s. We would have gone out to dinner and had some wonderful presents and celebrated in style!!! I know I would have had to have embarrassed her a little bit at the restaurant though and have them come sing to her.... she would have loved it even though she would say she did not, the smile on her face and the blush on her cheeks would tell me otherwise.

Always remembered - never forgotten!!!!

My Birthday Girl!!!!

We celebrated Mikayla's 3rd birthday last Saturday. What a great time we all had. She in particular had a blast. She was a little overwhelmed at first but then jumped right in!!! I can't believe my baby is 3 now. My goodness the time flies and what fun it is. We have learned to enjoy and cherish it because who knows how long we have it. We are so thankful and so blessed!!!!

Her party was as a local jump :) 7 of her closest friends were there and most of the adults that love her were there too.










(I had a blast making her cake too) :)

Happy Halloween

We had a wonderful time. Mikayla was the cutest Tinker Bell ever!!! We met up with our family and had a great time. Mikayla loves her cousins.

Here she is with the project she made at school. They had a party there and she got an early start on trick-or-treating.

Here are a few pictures of my Tink.



She is absolutely hooked on the earrings, we're on the second set of them now (they're temporary not pierced).
