Thanksgiving!

Today I am thankful for SO many things. Currently that my mom has a stocked spice cupboard! Thanks Mom! Also though for my amazing family and my beautiful children. I am thankful for the country I live in and the men and women that fight everyday to keep my family and me safe and free. I am thankful for a roof over my head and food on the table. I am especially thankful that I have the husband I do and for Myles and how smart he is and all he's learning. For my friends that stand by me and give me someone to stand by. My world would be much less meaningful without you around. I am thankful for being on the earth here and now and for knowing why I'm here and who I am.

I AM a joyous, honest, compassionate, nurturing women of light!

This might be my greatest blessing of all. Because knowing who I am and why I'm here makes life so much more beautiful and perfect.

Halloween

I didn't get as many pictures as I thought this Halloween. But I'll post what I have. We had such a great time. Myles refused to wear any of the costumes we had for him. Which suprised me since we had 2 different Elmo's and a Barney. He decided that he was ok with being a football player so that's what he was. He was SO cute. He never would say trick-or-treat, but hearing him say Happy Halloween was priceless and amazingly cute! We spent the day at home and then traveled to Grandma and Grandpa's house to get ready. After that the 3 of us along with Cousin Chase, Grandma Teresa and Grandma walked a few streets, it took us about an hour to make it up and down 2 streets, but that's how it worked out and the boys had a great time which is, to me, what holidays are all about.

Yay For Vegetables!!

Just a quick snippet to say how much I enjoy that Myles LOVES his vegetables! He will often request broccoli and tonight at dinner ate at least half a cucumber. I'm so lucky that I don't have a picky eater!! Thanks for making dinner time life so easy Goober! Love You!!

My favorite Words

I got an idea from one of my bloggy friends who posted some of here favorite "words" that her daughter says. It was so cute that I decided to do the same with my favorite "words that Myles has started saying recently.

Suser - Sucker

Beemboo - Bumblebee

Cuck - Stuck

Oscer - Monster and Oscar (the grouch)

Bi Sruck - Big Truck

Gover - Grover

Pikpi - Spikey

Mo Mo - Otis (we actually all call him Mo) We're a nickname family

These are just a few of my favorite "Myles Words" I've got to keep track of all the cute things he says and does before they change before my eyes.

Halloween Fun

We've been keeping busy so far this month. Trying to squeeze as much Halloween fun in as we can. So far we made it to Farnsworth Pumpkin Patch, painted pumpkins, and carved some pumpkins at Grammie and Grammpie's.

The pumpkin patch was a good time. The four of us went with Chris' mom and cousin Chase. The had such a good time in the bounce house, on the hay ride, actually we were informed that it was straw" and running through the pumpkins finding just the right one! After we got the pumpkins home we decided to paint them. It was the only weekend before Halloween that we had Logan and we didn't want them to go rotten to quickly. Logan's turned out great! He did two pictures, a spider and a bat. Myles did a face with a bunch of hair! lol

Then yesterday we headed over to Grammie and Grammpie's for our traditional pumpkin carving. We always have such a great time doing this. 4 out of the 6 of us kids were there, all with our kids. It ends up being a lot of people and a lot of kids but it's always a great time. Grammie made 3 different soups and we took over their basement for the day. So far it's been a great month! Thanks Mom and Dad for letting us take over and make such a mess. Love you both!!

Slow Work Days

I love Fridays here at work...well I love that they are slow anyway. Today I've had the luxury of working on my iPod and now, since I have the hard drive here with me I can catch up on a little blogging. The last post was all about Myles turning 2. But there is more. His Birthday party was a blast. School Bus themed of course. We had it at a park by our house. It was a beautiful day. Chris and I made a pinata (never again). My grandma painted it and it turned out FABULOUS!! Chris' mom made a school bus cake which was also GREAT!! The kids were able to play on the playground which was right by the pavilion and of course Myles got a ton of stuff. Most of which he still plays with. I'd like to thank everyone who came and helped out. You all made it a great day for Chris and I and especially for Myles.


He had fallen a few days before and had a bit
of road rash


The cake


A bit fuzzy, but this is the pinata
