SINGING, PUMPKINS & NOTE

Brookes choir sang in church Sunday morning and I could actually hear her on some parts. She usually doesn't sing but just moves her mouth. Monday night we decorated pumpkins they had to have for awanas last night. Heaths carving skills aren't that great so we played it safe this year and just stuck to decorating. Last night after I put Brooke to bed I went downstairs to clean up and found this note written on the napkin. I thought it was really sweet and had to come up and kiss her one more time while she slept.

FIELD TRIP & FLORIDA

A little late on posting but have been busy. Week before last I went on a field trip with Brookes class to Finley park and to see Junie B. Jones. This picture of her class was taken at the park. Last Sunday Heath & I left for Jacksonville, Florida. We had a great trip & the hotel was so nice. Monday he was at his marketing booth in the hotel from 7am-5pm. I left the hotel around 9:30 & drove 30 minutes to St. Augustine to shop at the outlets. I stayed at the outlets from 10am until 4pm. It was so nice to not have to rush & to buy without hearing do the kids really need that? lol! Monday night Heath & I went to Ruby Tuesdays & to see the movie Fireproof. The movie was awesome & Heath & I are now doing the bible study that goes along with it. I would recommend this to all couples. Tuesday Heath had a breakfast & then we hit the road. We stopped at the Hilton Head outlets on the way home at got back around 5pm to get the kids. It was great to get away and spend time together but I was ready to get home to my babies. We also had another "date" Thurday night my parents kept the kids all night & we went to the Rascall Flatts concert. Brooke got her report card Friday and made the A honor roll so after he soccer game & a birthday party yesterday we took the kids to see High School Musical 3. Hope everyone has a great week.

Fair!

We got to the fair around 3p.m. Friday and the kids rode rides for about two hours. The weather was perfect and it wasn't crowded. The kids were able to just walk on most rides. They never had to wait more then a couple of minutes. We ate and looked at the animals then we went to the Sugarland concert. We had great seats. We were row 7 right in the middle. The kids love Sugarland and Brooke couldn't believe it was really them when they came on the stage. They put on a great show as always.
Brady slep thru most of it but Brooke really enjoyed it. The guy behind us caught one of the guitar picks and gave it to Brooke. Saturday morning Brooke had a soccer game (they won) and pictures. Heath went to the Notre Dame game with our neighbor and even though they lost he still had a great time. Brooke and I are going on a field trip tommorrow to see a Junie B. Jones play. Anyone with kids around that age needs to get some of her books. They are so funny. Anyways, Hope everyone has a great week. If I don't post again pray for Heath & I as we are leaving Sunday to go on a business trip. He is going to Jacksonville, Florida and I decided since it was just him going and no other coworkers I would tag along. I am a little nervous about leaving the kids but am looking forward to spending time together. We will be home Tuesday night.

getting ready for halloween

We decorated our house for fall & halloween this weekend. The kids have now decided they want to wear the costumes we bought last year. They changed their minds at the last minute. Brooke is going to be Dorothy & Brady is going to be the lion from the Wizard of Oz. Well Bradys costume still fits but Brookes is to small. I think my nephew Aaron is going to be a scarecrow & Jacob is going to be the tin man. Julie is still trying to find Jaden a toto costume. Thought these were cute picture of them in Halloweens past.
