Little miss attitude


Okay so I know that I have already posted our Halloween pictures but... I took this one of Gracie on my cell phone and just barely got it off. So I had to share it! I thought it was a really cute.. it shows a true side of Gracie. Some days she can really have some attitude! Plus her smile with the hands on her hips are so stinking cute!!

Jenny's Baby Shower

So yesterday we had a baby shower thrown by my sister-in-law Laura for my sister-in-law Jenny. She is having a little boy named Easton next month!! This is going to be her first baby. Isn't she so cute!! Anyway these next two pictures are of Jenny opening up some gifts. My pictures weren't the best because of the glare from the front door.
But you still get the general idea. She got a bunch of cute little things for Easton!!


This is a picture of both Jenny and Laura. They both are really awesome!! I'm glad that they are my sister-in-laws!!

And of course I couldn't do a post with out having a picture of cute little Braxton!! This is Laura's little boy. He is so adorable!! I really love his smiles.. They are so big and so full of life!

More fun crafts I did

So lately I have been in a really crafty mood... and have wanted to get a few more fall decorations. So I made this "Happy Fall Y'all". I paid under $15 total to do the whole set up! And it turned up super cute!! After I made the fall one I decided why not make one for Christmas (even though I have more decorations than I know what to do with). And this is what I came up with. It says "Let it snow". Then the ribbon has little snowmen on them since they are my absolute favorite!! Again I paid under $15 for this whole set up!! I wish I were a millionaire because then I would sit at home and do fun crafts all day!! lol

The girls and Barbie

On Friday I got a little invite in the mail that said that "Barbie" was going to be at Wal-Mart. So I took my kiddos yesterday. This first picture is of them standing in line waiting for Barbie to come out!= When Barbie came out Gracie was way excited, (she loves barbies more then Kaytlin.) All the sudden you here Gracie " MOM there's "Babie" (saying it as Gracie would say it)." Normally she is not one to go up to a complete stranger and have a picture with her. But yesterday was a whole different story.
Needless to say I am very happy that I took them to see her yesterday. That's all they talked about the rest of the day.!! They also got a new barbie and a new barbie purse! They were literally in heaven!!

Caught


Well here is Gracie once again picking her nose AND smiling about it! I don't know how many times she has been told to STOP picking her nose... but she is not getting the hint! She is even to the point now that she gets bloody noses. I don't understand why she likes to do it. A part of me wants to say because she knows how bad it drives me crazy!!

The girls and Daddy


Where here are the girls with their daddy. They have been so excited to see Jake. Every evening when he gets home they both bolt to the front door yelling "daddy, daddy" it is very cute to see. I think that Gracie had the hardest time this past month when Jake was gone. She has been sick a lot and when she is sick for some reason all she wants is her daddy. Which many of you know for the longest time she wanted nothing to do with Jake, so this is a very big thing!! Kaytlin really missed him also but we have come to the conclusion that she understands now that when daddy leaves its not for good... that eventually he will be home! But I must say it sure is really nice having him home again!! Life is just so much easier!!

We voted... And we LOST

Well this is the very first election that I voted. I thought it was a very important one. We all know that this election is making history.... BUT I am worried. I have NOTHING against colored people but Obama being elected president not only puts my husbands job (military) in jeopardy but it also effects so many other aspects of our life. Really how can we support a man that wont even salute our flag. I have no respect for this man, I really hope that he dose what he says he is going to do to. I understand that America needs a change, we are all in a bad spot. And I really hope that things don't get worse. Last night was a very crazy night. Lets all pray that things go the way they should. I hope that America pulls together for our kids and the kids to come. And I must say I agree with my SIL Jenny.... "I hope they really looked into what he wants to do for this country and voted on that and not just color of his skin. I am not racist I never have been and never will be."
